Shanghai Fosun Pharmaceutical (Group) (2196 HK)'s (SFP) "Merger by Absorption" HK$24.60/share cash Offer for H-shares not held in Shanghai Henlius Biotech (2696 HK), tentatively includes a scrip alternative.
The first hurdle for the share option - valid letters of interest from those shareholders wishing to rollover - was secured yesterday. SCP still has the discretion on providing scrip.
But if SFP had any lingering doubts whether to offer scrip, that was answered earlier this week with the emergence of a substantial shareholder who is typically a pre-IPO investor.


Henlius (2696 HK): Here Comes The Scrip Option

<ul>
<li>Fosun's preferred arrangement for Henlius is to list the Company in A-shares.Since IPO in A-shares failed and Henlius has begun to generate profits, Fosun finally feels the need for privatization.</li>
<li>Due to its "flaws", undervaluation of Henlius in the Hong Kong stock market is difficult to fundamentally change. So, for conservative/cautious investors, Fosun's one-time acquisition at a 30% premium is attractive.</li>
<li>The Potential Share Alternative Offer seems a good option, but it is uncertain whether investors are still willing to believe in Fosun's "good story" - the future re-listing is uncertain.</li>
