Market Focus09:32

On August 10, GUOTAI JUNAN I surged 36.78% in regular trading upon resumption of trading, at HK$2.81 per share, with turnover of HK$212 million. The stock had been suspended since July 23.

On the news front, Guotai Haitong Financial Holdings proposed to privatize GUOTAI JUNAN I through a scheme of arrangement at HK$3.00 per share, representing a premium of approximately 44.2% over the last trading price. The offeror and its concert parties currently hold approximately 66.25% of the company's issued share capital. The board approved the capital operation plan on August 6.

The privatization aims to enhance Guotai Haitong's management efficiency over GUOTAI JUNAN I, integrate overseas business resources, strengthen overall capabilities, and accelerate its internationalization strategy. If approved and implemented, the company's shares will be delisted from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. This follows the precedent of Haitong International's earlier privatization, as domestic brokerages continue consolidating their offshore platforms.
