Xingda (1899 HK): Management to Reload with a Partial Offer?

<li>On its first closing date on 15 November, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/xingda-international-holdings" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:17836:1" rel="noopener">Xingda International (1899 HK)</a> declared the Chairman’s offer unconditional as the offeror and concert parties represented 60.76% of outstanding shares. </li>
<li>The result was surprising. The IFA opined that the offer was not fair or reasonable, and the independent Board recommended that the shareholder not accept it. </li>
<li>The CCASS movements suggest that the offer was declared unconditional mainly because friends and family supported the Chairman’s offer. The gross/annualised spread is 1.6%/92.6%.</li>
