The latest announcement is out from Wai Hung Group Holdings Ltd. ( (HK:3321) ).

Wai Hung Group Holdings Ltd. has entered into a placing agreement with Rifa Securities Limited to issue up to 121,116,000 new shares under its existing general mandate, representing 20% of its current issued share capital. The new shares, to be placed with at least six independent investors, will be priced at HK$0.039, reflecting a discount to recent market prices and implying a maximum nominal value of about HK$1.21 million.

The company plans to use the net proceeds from the placing for general working capital and repayment of group loans, which suggests a focus on bolstering liquidity and deleveraging its balance sheet. The placing is subject to conditions including Stock Exchange approval for listing and dealing in the new shares, and will not require separate shareholder approval, meaning existing investors face dilution if the transaction proceeds, while the company gains flexibility in funding its ongoing operations.
