Lines: 7 YHP Stands for Yokogawa Hewlett-Packard, and it is a joint venture, not a subsidiary of HP per se. Yokogawa Electric Works owns 25%, and HP owns 75%. At inception, the split was 51% YEW, 49% HP, but Japanese law changed to allow foreign companies to own a majority stake in joint ventures. Hope this helps.
