On 12 September, Shenyang SASAC increased its Shengjing Bank Co Ltd H (2066 HK) offer by 21.2% from HK$1.32 to HK$1.60. The IFA opines it is fair and reasonable.
The revised terms should ensure the support of key shareholders. However, the IFA analysis is flawed, and the revised offer is light.
While the 21 October vote on the delisting proposal should pass, the satisfaction of the minimum acceptance condition (90% of independent H shares) poses a challenge.

<li>On the 12th September, the Offeror bumped terms to HK$1.60 (best &amp; final). That's a 40.5% premium to undisturbed, but still a 83.96% discount to NAV.</li>

The Composite Document's now out, with a H-share class meeting on the 21st October. The IFA (Gram Capital) says "fair &amp; reasonable". To be expected. </li>
