Best World makes $2.50 selective capital reduction offer to privatise company
The group of controlling shareholders of Best World International CGN -0.45% are offering $2.50 per share to the remaining shareholders to buy them out via a selective capital reduction offer.
 
The offer, which was flagged more than a week ago, will be put in front of shareholders holding 34.88% of the shares. A nod from a minimum of 75% out of this group is required for the offer to go ahead and for the company to be privatised.
 
According to Best World, it expects " growth headwinds" in China, where it has a heavy presence.
 
" The company believes a privatisation of the company will provide the necessary flexibility to optimise its resources to focus on the longer-term strategies of the business," says Best World.
 
The offer price of $2.50 is a 12.6% premium over the April 3 closing price of $2.22, and a bigger premium of more than 40% over the closing price on March 21, just before Best World first flagged its intention to make this selective capital reduction.

So quiet. Something wrong with the offer? Can the price go higher than the exit offer price of $2.50?

Can they influence the IFA since they are the paymaster of the service?

Unlikely. Very hard to answer to the shareholders if they do so. They probably offer a low amount (supported by the IFA report) and the share price will sink back in. Do note that as it is a selective shares reduction plan, the main shareholders motivation would be to offer as low as they can as long as the offer is still reasonable and supported by IFA report.  |

Not 100% and no offer price yet. The main shareholders probably dont have enough money to buy out all the shares of the other shareholders. So they will have to do the selective capital reduction exercise using the company' s cash first. Once the other shareholder % is low enough, then they can start to do the delisting exercise. Its a step by step process.

Wonder if some of them could have started selling their shares to cash some in. Unless of course the Management has managed to pacify them.
