Yuexiu Property (123 HK): US$1.1bn Dilutive and Unnecessary Rights Issue

By Arun George

  • Yuexiu Property (123 HK) will raise US$1.1bn through a rights offering – 30 rights shares for every 100 existing shares. The subscription price is HK$9.00, a 23.3% discount to TERP.
  • As Yuexiu is in no danger of breaching the three red lines, the rights issue is an opportunistic play on capitalising on the strong share price run.
  • Rights shares will be entitled to the final and special dividend announced on 15 March. Shares go ex-rights on 2 May and the rights start trading on 15 May.
