<li>As discussed in <a href="https://skr.ma/gQ5tZ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Get Nice (64 HK): Expect A Founder's Scheme</a>, following <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/get-nice-holdings-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:16415:1" rel="noopener">Get Nice (64 HK)</a>'s (GNH) suspension, an Offer from Hung Hon Man, GNH's chairman (&amp; founder), was expected.</li>
<li>And that is what unfolded late Friday night (17th July). Hung is Offering HK$4/share, comprising a HK$2 consideration + HK$2 special dividend. Terms appear not to be final.</li>
<li>Terms are also low-balled. A 17.6% premium to undisturbed. And a 62.8% discount to NAV. Yet minorities are indifferent looking at AGM voting. I'm guessing this gets up, as is.</li>

As discussed in Get Nice (64 HK): Expect A Founder's Scheme, following Get Nice (64 HK)'s (GNH) suspension, an Offer from Hung Hon Man, GNH's chairman (&amp; founder), was expected.
And that is what unfolded late Friday night (17th July). Hung is Offering HK$4/share, comprising a HK$2 consideration + HK$2 special dividend. Terms appear not to be final.
Terms are also low-balled. A 17.6% premium to undisturbed. And a 62.8% discount to NAV. Yet minorities are indifferent looking at AGM voting. I'm guessing this gets up, as is.
