Almost a year in, Changhong Group has yet to secure the regulatory approvals for its HK$1.223 scheme offer for Changhong Jiahua (3991 HK).
The offer will be effectively blocked, not by a Sichuan NDRC/Commerce rejection with stated reasons, but by the approval process failing to conclude by the 20 September long stop date.
On a deal break, I expect little-to-no downside due to improving fundamentals, significant peer re-rating and significant discount to the undisturbed price.
