<li>With ORG offering a 4.9% higher price and securing Zhang Wei's acceptance, the ball is now back in Baowu's hands. Good reasons exist for Baowu to raise its offer price. </li>

<li>At ORG's offer price, CPMC's PERs for FY24 and FY25 of 15.4x and 14.2x are cheaper than Baosteel Packaging's 22x and 18.7x. This gives additional justifications for a higher offer. </li>
