Beijing Enterprises Water Group (371 HK)/(BEWG) will launch a conditional mandatory general offer (MGO) for Beijing Enterprises Urban Resources (3718 HK) at HK$0.78 as it crossed the 30%+ voting threshold. 
The MGO is conditional on the offeror and concert parties holding more than 50% of the voting rights (currently own 38.64%). The MGO price is unattractive, in our view.
BEWG's justification for the offer and lack of a “no increase in offer price” wording suggests the possibility of a bump. The shares closed 2.6% above the MGO price.
