<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/17600" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:17600:1">New Pride Corp (900100 KS)</a> announced a ₩36.2bil rights offer. This is a public offering, so there won't be subscription rights to trade. Pricing will be done as 3-day VWAP on Jan 9~11 at a 30% discount.</li>
<li>Supposedly, we can have ample opportunity to arb trade. This may be what the company is hoping. Simply, we wait until Jan 16~17 (subscription period) and see the spread. At this much discount, there must be a huge spread opening.</li>
<li>Proration risk can be much more annoying than a usual stockholder offering. In the previous public offering event by New Pride, subscription rate went as high as 370 to 1. It should be way much lower this time. But still this is risky enough.</li>
