<h3>The New News</h3>

Back on the 25 February, property management service provider Sichuan Languang Justbon Service Group (2606 HK) ("SLJS") announced its major shareholder had entered into a MOU with Country Garden Services Holdings (6098 HK) (CGS) to sell 115,090,200 H-shares or a 64.62% stake. The seller is Languang Hejun, a wholly-owned entity of Sichuan Languang Development (600466 CH). Terms under the MOU were RMB42.1105/share. No HK$-equivalent figure was quoted, but at the prevailing exchange rate, this was roughly ~HK$50.61/share, or a ~30% premium to last close.


On the 11 March, SLJS announced some subtle changes to the MOU, such that shares to be acquired include 115,090,200 H shares AND 750,000 domestic shares or 65.04% of shares out. The price per H shares was also revised up to RMB42.8546/share.

The New News
Late last night SLJS announced a possible unconditional mandatory general Offer (MGO) from CGS for the H shares (at HK$51.0571/share) and domestic shares (at RMB42.8547/share).
CGS has also proposed a voluntary delisting, and if the delisting resolution is approved by independent H-shareholders and the listing acceptance condition (yep, one with an infamous 90% handle) is satisfied, H-shareholders will receive HK$54.30/share and domestic shareholders RMB45.5768/share.
The MGO appears a lock, so you have an effective floor of HK$51.0571. The question, therefore, is: do you chase the delisting bump?
More below the fold.
