The latest update is out from AEON Stores (Hong Kong) Co., Limited ( (HK:0984) ).
AEON Stores (Hong Kong) Co., Limited plans to bid for the remaining 35% equity interest in its non-wholly owned subsidiary AEON GD, currently held by Teemall Department Stores, through a public tender at a maximum consideration of about RMB170.27 million. The move would turn AEON GD into a wholly owned subsidiary and is classified as a very substantial acquisition under Hong Kong listing rules.
The board argues that participating directly in the tender will prevent delays in the disposal of the stake and allow faster execution of profitability enhancement plans for AEON GD. As the tender documentation cannot be made conditional on prior shareholder approval, the company is seeking an advance mandate at an extraordinary general meeting, while the connected nature of the deal triggers reporting and announcement obligations but is exempt from circular and independent advice requirements.
