Simcere Pharmaceutical Group Limited ( (HK:2096) ) has provided an announcement.

Simcere Pharmaceutical Group has agreed to acquire the entire equity interest in a related diagnostics company for RMB30.76 million through an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary. After completion, the target will become an indirectly wholly owned subsidiary of Simcere, and its financial results will be consolidated into the group’s accounts, strengthening Simcere’s control over its diagnostics operations.

The deal is classified as a connected transaction under Hong Kong listing rules because the vendor is ultimately controlled by Simcere’s controlling shareholders, Mr. Ren Yong and Ms. Li Shimeng. As the applicable percentage ratio is above 0.1% but below 5%, the transaction requires public reporting and announcement but is exempt from independent shareholders’ approval, streamlining execution while still providing disclosure to investors.
