長實發新股向李嘉誠基金會收購資產再回購 李澤鉅稱若股東同意料股價表現會好
長實(01113.HK)公布向李嘉誠基金會收購四項英國及荷蘭資產,涉170億元,將以每股51元發行逾3.33億股股份支付。長實執行董事兼副董事總經理葉德銓在網上記者會解釋指,由於發新股料將出現股份稀釋,為減少稀釋公司會作回購,同樣以51元價格回購股份,如回購期內收購股數不足3.33億股,公司會根據股東周年大會獲得的股東批准再於市場回購,希望盡量購回3.3億股。
他指,是次交易資產,李嘉誠基金會保證今明兩年每年現金回報最少9.1億元,代表現金回報率為5.35%。公司會保證於今明兩年每年派發的股息總額,不低於去年的股息總額再加9.1億元,即料約不少於75億元。
長實主席李澤鉅表示,若股東同意交易,料股價表現會好,是次交易是幫股東製造回報,提供高於市場價格套現機會。
長實執行委員會委員兼企業業務發展部總經理馬勵志補充稱,是次收購符合公司長遠發展策略,讓公司可用現金收購穩定、長線及優質的項目,令公司有穩定的經常性收入。
另外,長實特別項目總監趙汝成提到,交易作價170億元及相關條款是經過雙方公平磋商,而回購價較公司股份過去十日平均收市價溢價約10%,亦高於52周高位。他稱有關要約通函料於4月26日發予小股東,特別股東大會估計於5月13日左右舉行,料交易可於今年上半年前後完成。(ek/u)
