Privatization of Li & Fung: Rationales and Implications
內容大綱
This case explores the corporate finance issues arising from the privatization of Li & Fung Limited (Li & Fung, prior stock code: 494.HK) in May 2020. A public announcement was made earlier in March of the same year, while its closing stock price surged by 88.0%, from HKD0.50 to HKD0.94, the following trading day. Such price movement reflected the market expectation of successful execution of the privatization proposal. The case seeks to highlight the considerations of Li & Fung in deciding on privatization, from a corporate finance perspective. Through the case, students will grapple with the practical questions of how controlling shareholders of a listed company should balance their own interests and the interests of disinterested shareholders in the market in formulating a privatization deal. There are always some signals that indicate a listed company may have a plan for privatization. Shareholders need to be alert to certain signals that may possibly indicate a good opportunity for speculation. Li & Fung is a good example for students interested in investment.
