Samsung Heavy Industries began the day with a gap down at -20.95%. But it manages to climb back up to -10.33%. Now it is settling at -16.20% as I'm writing this post. Yes, the trading volume exploded as expected. It is now 5.24 times its 30-day average daily trading volume, representing 11.56% of the total shares. Today's price range also soared to 14.13%p, nearly 4 times the usual range of 3.8%p.<table class="table table-striped">

Samsung Heavy Industries first announced a 5 to 1 capital reduction. But this one is a par-value capital reduction without any refund. So, the number of outstanding shares remains unchanged. Only the par-value will be down from ₩5,000 to ₩1,000.Why doing it now? Well, it had to do it a long time ago. It has already been a while since Samsung Heavy began to run the risk of encountering capital impairment.<table class="table table-striped">

</table>What's unusual is the preannouncement. Why preannounces it for an offering taking place more than a month later? Of course, it is not like we've never seen it before. Hyundai Heavy Industries Intermediate Holdco (now Korea Shipbuilding &amp; Offshore Engn Co Ltd) made a preannouncement of rights offering back in 2019. But that was part of a group-wide complex restructuring process, which should have been made public in advance.This is a stand-alone offering event. I don't really see why Samsung Heavy should disclose it in advance through a preannouncement.My suspicion? I think it is related to the recently enacted short-selling restriction to close the loophole for arb trading in a rights offer. Those having shorted between a day after an offering announcement day and an offering price-fixing day face the restriction. In such a case, they are prevented from participating in an offering at all. The restrictions apply to offering events whose filing dates are after April 6, 2021.<div>

Then, the question is whether this preannouncement qualifies as an offering announcement subject to the short-selling restrictions. I don't think it is since the Korea FSC states that an offering announcement contains a detailed schedule. This preannouncement has only an estimated offering value.
Samsung Heavy Industries isn't exactly a fancy growth stock. It is evident that liquidity-wise, this offering needs as many arb traders as possible. So, the company may have figured a way to walk around the short-selling restrictions so that it could invite more arb traders. It is like giving more than plenty of time (6 weeks) to short before an offering announcement and recover at a deep discount in an offering.

Samsung Heavy's Unusual Preannouncement of Rights Offer: Pave the Path for Massive Arb Trades?

After the market close today, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/samsung-heavy-industries" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:4:1" rel="noopener">Samsung Heavy Industries (010140 KS)</a> announced that it will conduct a capital reduction plan followed by rights offering issue worth 1 trillion won. The capital reduction will involve a reduction in par value (5 to 1). The rights offering will be worth 1 trillion won, representing 22% of Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI)'s market cap of 4.5 trillion won.We believe that this rights offering by Samsung Heavy Industries will act as an overhang on its share price as many investors fear that this offering will lead to further shares dilution. In addition, the company also had an operating loss of 506.8 billion won in 1Q 2021, which was much worse than the consensus estimate of an operating loss of 49.3 billion won in this period.Rising materials costs including steel has resulted in higher than expected total operating costs for Samsung Heavy Industries.

The short sell ban in Korea that was instated on 16 March 2020 is set to expire on 15 March.However, with mayoral elections in Seoul and Busan around the corner, politicians are said to be leaning on the FSC to extend the short sell ban. Add to that the retail outrage - from petitions to the Blue House, bus tours, and posts on K-Streetbets of targeting stocks with high short interest.There is a high likelihood that the short sell ban gets extended by three more months to tide the politicians over the mayoral elections.In the event that the short sell ban expires, we highlight stocks that have seen the most short covering since the start of the short sell ban, stocks with high short interest as a percentage of market cap and free float, and high days of ADV to cover.This will have implications for many strategies and will open the door to trade the ordinaries vs preferred shares, long/short and other related strategies.
