Oops LOL pardon me.

I thought I saw some cash consideration when I read the announcement of acquisition. But like u say, it doesn't matter.

I was in the game late too.

me too only being convinced after the revival of Jiurui deal... but no worries lah... they are still fearlessly paying you an upwardly revised interim dividends of 3.5 cents not withstanding the continued conversion of CBs...

Since they are fearless... we must also be fearless...

I believe there is a fixed repayment schedule for most of the debt. I expect debt held by YTW and debt held in the Company level to finance the acquisition of YTW stake to be repaid by the end of 2015. The business model is quite sustainable.

As GG pointed out, there will be no cash infusion. IIRC, they have never raised any cash from OPMI since listing in 2004.

Been a long time shareholder. I actually attended the FY 2009 AGM - concerns then were very different from the ones now. Though most of my current stake came after YTW was acquired.

Remain vested.

Old deal: http://infopub.sgx.com/FileOpen/Acquisit...leID=57001

New deal: http://infopub.sgx.com/FileOpen/Acquisit...eID=306007

Old deal: consideration RMB 891m (adjusted for comparable concession life), net debt HK$1.94bn

New deal: RMB 697m, net debt HK$1.59bn

Difference - 21.8% cheaper in consideration, 18% less net debt absolute certainty in concession life. New shares issued as consideration @ $0.98 is 16.7% dearer than previously indicated price of $0.84 (ie less dilution should same amount of shares are issued)

DBS Vickers in the old analysis when the old deal was announced estimated a borrowing costs of 6.55% back then. Given that overall credit situation in China has deteriorated over the last 18 months, it is highly likely that borrowers with inferior credit ratings are likely to have paid higher interest rates in order to roll over their loans.

Simply assuming a tax rate of 20%, every 1% savings on the latest net debt of HK$1.59bn will lift Jiurui net earnings by HK$12.7m. Assuming a conservative 5% savings on interest simply due to CM Pac credit standing, Jiurui would easily enjoy a HK$63.6m uplift in net earnings.

In the short term at least until further details on the targeted company are revealed in the EGM circular, the market and analysts can only guess. In the meantime, the ongoing conversion of the in-the-money CB is likely to provide explanation of the seemingly "never-ending" supply of CMP shares (assuming there are actively traders arbitraging between the CB and the mother shares).

Hello buddies

Based on the EGM circular page 49, Weighted Average Cost of Capital for the existing owners of Jiurui seems to be 11.5%, giving it a Fair Value of RMB 702 million.

Based on greengiraffe's information, Cost of Capital for CMPH is estimated at 6.5%, so I estimated the Fair Value to CMPH to be RMB 2750 million.

Given that CMPH paid RMB 698 million for Jiurui, it seems like a really good deal, or I failed my maths Tongue

This gives us a 5% savings on interest as greengiraffe has rightfully predicted, giving us "HK$63.6m uplift in net earnings".

Profit!

Often a good source of information as both Beilun and YTW are located close or connected to the roads owned by ZE. Like us, they were affected by the opening of the Bridge.

China extends green car support
JOHN conROY SEPTEMBER 02, 2014 11:15AM

China has announced a list of 17 electric vehicles from 11 automakers – including one model each from the China joint ventures of Nissan, GM and Daimler – that will be eligible for tax breaks for purchasers, Reuters reports.

According to the news service, the list was posted on the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology website, and follows an announcement last month last month that the government would stop levying sales tax on approved models of green cars from September.

"The tax breaks aim to spur purchases of those electric cars in China, whose sales have already been subsidised by official purchase rebates," Reuters said.

China last year renewed for three years subsidies that provide up to 60,000 yuan ($US9767) for the purchase of an all-electric battery car and up to 35,000 yuan for a "near all-electric" plug-in vehicle, the news service said, adding that the Beijing has a target of 5 million such vehicles by 2020.

CMP - Firmly On Track For Growth

CMP held its EGM to acquire Jiurui Expressway this morning.

The main message that emerged from the meeting is as follows:

i) CMP can always retain earnings for acquisition of toll road - will take 3 years to accumulate earnings to buy a new toll road.

ii) CMP prefers to grow and share dividends with shareholders so that it can issue new shares at higher prices (on assumption that mkt rewards CMP for its generous and growing dividend policies) alongside with debt to acquire toll roads.

I think based on ii) CMP felt that they can achieve their objectives quicker especially since it is no longer restricted by the constraints of share price trading below NAV.

Hence, CMP's rich dividend yield is expected to be sustained and grow forward.

Buy for the 7.5% current yield with 5% capital gains in hope for 5% dividend yield with 7.5% capital gains.

HU8TPPY
The resolution to approve the acquisition of Hong Kong Honest Queen International Investment Limited i.e. Jiurui Expressway, is passed as expected, with 99.999% FOR votes.
