Now Dickson Concepts Intl (113 HK) has followed suit. But the vote was (much) closer than it should have been.

Dickson Concepts Intl (113 HK) shareholders have voted against Sir Poon’s HK$7.20 per share offer. The vote marginally failed the &lt;10% of all disinterested shareholders' rejection threshold.
While painful, this deal break was arguably the correct outcome as the offer was below the net cash and Dickson is cash generative on an underlying basis. 
Unlike the last HK deal break (Soundwill), the price action over the last two days indicated a done deal. My estimated break price is HK$5.00 (30% downside to last close).

A low AGM minority participation rate and quiet retail forums are helpful. However, the offer is below the net cash, and Dickson is cash generative on an underlying basis. 
Dickson shares traits similar to those of the Goldlion and Soundwill deal breaks, which showed that low-ball offers can be blocked. This situation warrants a safety-first approach.
