EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
- Vedanta Limited decided to delist its ADRs last autumn. They were delisted but the process of unwinding them comes down to selling the unconverted ADR underlying shares.
- Citi is conducting an offering to sell those underlying shares. This will aid in setting the unwind price for existing but unsettled listed ADR derivatives (yay).
- The offering itself is just over 1% of shares out, 4% of float, and 12% of foreign portfolio investor holdings. Not huge, but the trend vs peers gives one pause.
