Today after the close, Shinko Electric Industries (6967 JP) offered a progress report on the approvals for the JIC Consortium Tender Offer originally "scheduled" to start in late August 2024.
"Procedures and Steps Necessary under the competition laws of Vietnam and China have not been completed" so the Tender Offeror expects to commence the Tender Offer in/after late January 2025.
The announcement appears to suggest no update is likely for another five months or until the Tender Offer starts. That will introduce questions of further delay.
