The precondition for Hangzhou Kangji Medical Instrument Co., Ltd. (9997 HK)’s scheme privatisation from a consortium is satisfied. The offer, which has been declared final, is at HK$9.25 per share. 
The key condition will be approval by at least 75% disinterested shareholders (&lt;10% of all disinterested shareholders rejection). Crucially, the blocking stake is below the substantial disclosure threshold.
