Market Focus07-08 14:18

On July 8, 51World (06651.HK) rose 5.3% in regular trading, trading at 80.75 HKD/share, with turnover of HKD 244 million.

On the news front, the company announced on July 3 a placement agreement with Goldman Sachs and Huatai International to place 5.4656 million new H shares at HKD 73.20 per share, representing approximately a 12% discount to the July 2 closing price of HKD 83.15, with estimated net proceeds of approximately HKD 395 million. The placement shares account for about 1.4% of existing issued H shares. Following the announcement, the stock came under sustained selling pressure, retreating from HKD 83.15 to the HKD 76.85 area.

After several trading sessions of adjustment, the placement overhang has been largely digested, with the stock finding technical support near the placement price level. Concurrently, the application software sector rallied broadly today, with Kingdee International up 13.09% and SenseTime up 8.8%, generating positive spillover effects and attracting capital back into the name.
