Imminent Block Deals Involving Hanmi Science Shares Due to Inheritance Tax Payments
- The local market anxiously awaits the family’s ability to pay by early May. Failure could prompt the Tax Service to sell their pledged stocks, including Hanmi Science shares.
- Preventing Tax Service from selling Hanmi Science shares requires additional collateral, unlikely due to existing pledges. Rumor suggests mother and daughter may sell shares before May, followed by Tax Service.
- Given negotiation uncertainty with KKR, it’s crucial to prepare for potential failure rather than solely relying on success, necessitating a pragmatic approach.
Tietto Minerals (TIE AU): Zhaojin’s Revised and Final Takeover Offer Remains Light
- Tietto Minerals Ltd (TIE AU) has disclosed a revised conditional proposal from Zhaojin Mining Industry H (1818 HK) at A$0.68 per share, a 17.2% premium to the previous offer of A$0.58.
- The offer is conditional on a 50.1% minimum acceptance condition (which can be waived). The offer is declared best and final.
- Despite the bump, the offer is below the IE’s valuation range of A$0.79 to A$0.93 per share. The IE’s valuation range would be around 25% higher at current gold prices.
