Trading comfortably through the Partial Offer terms, Sun Corp (6736 JP) may still do nothing with its Cellebrite DI (CLBT US) holding towards narrowing the NAV discount.
Preceding my comments on Sun Corp are the current setup/unwind tables for Asia-Pacific Holdcos.
These relationships trade with a minimum liquidity of US$1mn, and a % market capitalisation &gt;20%.
