Wan Kei Discloses Independent HK$16.9 Million Valuation for 51% Stake Acquisition

Wan Kei Group Holdings Limited ( (HK:1718) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Wan Kei Group Holdings Limited has issued a supplemental announcement regarding its previously disclosed acquisition of 51% of the issued share capital of a target company, detailing the independent valuation that underpins the transaction consideration. The valuation, conducted by Ascent Partners Valuation Service Limited using a market approach and the Guideline Public Company Method, appraised the 51% stake at HK$16.9 million as of 30 September 2025, based on a median price-to-earnings multiple of 15.05, trailing 12‑month earnings of HK$2.09 million, and adjustments for lack of marketability and a premium for control. The decision to adopt the market approach, rather than cost or income approaches, reflects the availability of comparable listed peers and the desire to capture current market expectations for the industry, providing shareholders and stakeholders with greater transparency on how the acquisition price was determined and supporting the board’s assertion that the terms are fair and reasonable on an arm’s‑length basis.
