If you go to http://www.hoya.co.jp, Pentax is listed as a subsidiary but not
Tokina. Searching the site for Tokina gets zero hits.
Wikipedia and a few other sites indicate that Hoya supplies glass to Tokina,
but that Tokina is an independent company.

In Japan, it is very common for a company to hold another company's stock.
That's especially true when one company is a supplier to another company. It
seems likely to me that this is true of Hoya and Tokina, though I don't know
where a person could go to check on it.
