<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/suchuang-gas-corp-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:304:1" rel="noopener">Suchuang Gas Corp (1430 HK)</a> is the dominant piped natural gas operator in Taicang, Jiangsu Province. After market close on Wednesday, it announced a privatisation offer by way of a scheme of arrangement from <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/china-resources-gas-group-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:20525:1" rel="noopener">CR Gas (1193 HK)</a>. The offeror will offer either a cash alternative (HK$2.50 in cash for each scheme share) or a share alternative (1 new share in HoldCo for every scheme share).The bid represents a premium of 27.6% over the closing price of HK$1.96 per share on the undisturbed date (10 August 2021 prior to irregular price movements) and a premium of 2.9% over the closing price of HK$2.43 per share on the last trading date (13 August 2021 prior to the trading halt). The completion conditions include regulatory approvals from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC) and State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR). As CR Gas is a subsidiary of China Resources (Holdings) Company Limited, an SOE, regulatory approval should be forthcoming. <div class="content-highlight">The key condition precedents are the headcount test along with the scheme approved by at least 75% disinterested shareholders and &lt;10% rejection by all disinterested shareholders. As disinterested scheme shareholders represent 565.4 million shares or 62.61% of shares outstanding, the 10% blocking stake is 56.5 million shares or 6.26% of shares outstanding. Excluding the irrecovables, no disinterested shareholder holds a blocking stake. Overall, we think the offer price is ok and that the privatisation bid will be successful. </div>
