Speculation is rife that MBK provides an irrevocable to I Squared for its enlarged shareholding. Maybe. I still don't see China supporting a U.S.-based infrastructure firm over an SOE
What is covered in the Full Insight:
  • Introduction of MBK's Stake Increase
  • China Mobile's Offer for HKBN

In its monthly update, HKBN mentions I Squared has finished DD and is finalising a possible pre-con offer. IF I Squared does make a higher firm Offer (doubtful in my view), I don't expect China Mobile to bump terms until I Squared has secured the necessary approvals. In this current environment, how welcome is a US-listed entity taking over a sensitive telco asset? Not welcome would be my guess.
