<p>Back on the 9 July, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/beijing-capital-land-ltd-h" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:4543:1" rel="noopener">Beijing Capital Land Ltd H (2868 HK)</a> (BCL) <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2021/0709/2021070901284.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a> a pre-conditional Offer from its controlling shareholder, state-owned Beijing Capital Group, otherwise known as the Capital Group. The Offer price of HK$2.80/share was a 62.79% premium to last close, and a 150% premium to the average closing price over the previous 60 trading days. The Offer price would NOT be increased. No dividends are expected to be declared. A concurrent Offer for BCL's domestic shares at RMB2.334080/share was also tabled.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>The pre-conditions, which cannot be waived, included approvals from NDRC, MoC, SAFE, and if applicable, SASAC.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>As BCL is PRC incorporated and compulsory acquisition is not afforded under PRC law,  this delisting proposal is by way of a Merger by Absorption, which involves a Scheme-like vote from disinterested shareholders.</p>
<p>Unlike a number of PRC-incorporated privatisations, there is no tendering acceptance condition attached to this delisting.</p>
<p>Typically Merger by Absorption transactions complete in around four months.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p>This <em>appeared</em> a relatively clean deal although from the onset, it traded wide to terms, at an average gross spread to terms of ~13%, up to and including yesterday.</p>
<p>The dispatch of the Composite Doc was, as expected, <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2021/0729/2021072901655.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">delayed</a> to the 9 September (officially granted by the SFC on the  2 August) from the 29 July. </p>
<p>A profit warning was announced on the <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/search/titlesearch.xhtml?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">30 July</a>. </p>
<p>Last night, BCL said the Pre-Condition has been <a href="https://www1.hkexnews.hk/listedco/listconews/sehk/2021/0818/2021081801497.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">satisfied</a>. There was no further application to the SFC to extend the dispatch of the Composite Doc.</p>
<p>This is a positive development. Expect the spread to tighten when shares begin trading this morning. </p>

Sichuan Languang Justbon Service Group (2606 HK) has despatched the composite document in relation to Country Garden Services Holdings (6098 HK) base and enhanced offer.

Satisfaction of the minimum acceptance condition is the key hurdle. We note the privatisation proposals for Beijing Jingneng Clean Energy (579 HK) and Harbin Electric Co Ltd H (1133 HK) have previously failed due to the inability to meet the 90% minimum acceptance condition.  Country Garden Services has bought itself some leeway by having the right to extend the closing date from 17 June to not later than 3 September.
