<li>The connection between Newjf and Greatview is deep. Newjf expressed an interest in acquiring Greatview early on, but the two parties didn’t reach an agreement. Greatview is not entirely “innocent”.</li>
<li>Newjf's decision to forcibly acquire Greatview at this moment should be made after careful consideration. Mengniu may not necessarily oppose this merger. Mengniu is likely to take a neutral stance. </li>
<li>Newjf’s Offer is attractive. In the absence of a more realistic action by Greatview to make a higher Offer, we advise investors not to walk away from Newjf’s Offer easily.</li>

Unsurprisingly, the Greatview Aseptic Packaging (468 HK) Board has recommended shareholders vote against the appointment of Shandong Xinjufeng Technology Packaging (301296 CH)’s two director nominees.
The EGM vote on 18 October is too close to call and depends on Shandong Xinjufeng and management's ability to rally disengaged minorities to their respective causes.   
Irrespective of the EGM vote results, Shandong Xinjufeng will be keen to launch its offer to ward off the threat of a possible competing offer from management.

To say Greatview Aseptic Packaging (468 HK)'s management and Shandong Xinjufeng (301296 CH) (XJF) don't get along is an understatement. GAPack has labelled XJF's pre-conditional Offer hostile and unwelcome.
Last night (6th August), co-founders Jeff Bi and Gang Hong tabled a non-binding Offer. No price was mentioned. Collectively they hold 14.72% of shares out compared to XJF's 26.8%.
A firm Offer (and price) would have been welcome, and this probably reflects on-going funding negotiations. But the announcement will give minorities pause if/when tendering into XJF's Offer.
