China VAST (6166 HK): Jinmao’s Pre-Conditional Offer
- Urban planner China Vast Industrial Urban Development (6166 HK) has received a pre-conditional Offer, by way of a Scheme, from China Jinmao Holdings (817 HK).
- The cancellation price is HK$2.40/share, a ~30% premium to the undisturbed price. The Offer Price is final.
- Pre-Conditions include approvals from SAMR, SASAC, and NDRC. These won’t be an issue as Jinamo is backed by SOE Sinochem.
