2. Maoyan Entertainment IPO: The Trouble with Blockbusters
Maoyan Entertainment, formerly Entertainment Plus (EPLUS HK), is the largest online movie ticketing service provider in China. According to press reports, Maoyan has started pre-marketing to raise $0.3 billion (down from earlier indication of $0.5-1.0 billion) through a Hong Kong IPO. Maoyan is backed by Beijing Enlight Media (300251 CH) (20.0% shareholder), Tencent Holdings (700 HK) (16.3% shareholder) and Meituan Dianping (3690 HK) (8.6% shareholder).
Maoyan is yet another proxy in the battle between Tencent and Alibaba Group Holding (BABA US). However, we believe that challenges abound for Maoyan and would be cautious about participating in the IPO.
