Hong Kong, 16 June 2026 – Aureole Halo Ltd. has triggered a mandatory unconditional cash offer to acquire the 25.00% public stake in Rimbaco Group Global after completing the purchase of a 75.00% controlling interest from RBC Venture for HK$157.50 million (HK$0.167 per share).
The offer, handled by CMB International Capital and CEB International Capital, opens today and will close at 4 p.m. on 7 July 2026 unless extended. At HK$0.167 per share, the maximum cash outlay for the 315.00 million shares still held by minority investors is about HK$52.61 million. Acceptance is irrevocable; settlement will occur within seven business days of valid acceptance, net of 0.1% seller’s stamp duty.
Aureole Halo—ultimately owned 70% by Mr. Yao Xiongjie, 20% by Ms. Yao Juanying and 10% by Mr. Chen Dong—funds the offer entirely from internal resources. Financial advisers confirm sufficient resources are available.
