Clarification of News Report

We write with regards to your request for clarification on the news article entitled “Macay dusts off planned $200-M share sale” posted on BusinessWorld (Internet Edition) on January 12, 2017. The article reported in part that:

“SOFTDRINKS bottler Macay Holdings, Inc. of Alfredo M. Yao plans to revive a $200-million share sale while tweaking the terms of the offer.

‘Yes, that’s the plan,’ Mr. Yao, chairman of Macay, said in an interview on the sidelines of the Annual Reception for the Banking Community in Pasay City when asked if he is pushing through with an aborted secondary offer of the holding firm’s shares.

There will be changes to the terms of the share sale, Mr. Yao said. It will now be composed of primary and secondary shares instead of an initial plan involving its main shareholder Mazy’s Capital, Inc. paring down its stake to boost liquidity of the stock.

‘It’s a mixture of primary and secondary (shares). Unlike before na all global, now we will also have a local component,’ Mr. Yao said, adding that he hopes the share sale can be conducted within this quarter ‘because we have the yearend audited financial statement.’

. . . .”

Macay Holdings, Inc. (“Macay”) wishes to issue this clarification:

As part of its vision to be a dominant company in consumer products and services in the Philippines and in other Asian countries the company has been scouting for acquisitions and partners that will allow the company to expand and therefore has remained open to some investment proposals by third parties to improve its liquidity and has not closed its doors to the option of raising capital and this depends on timing and favourable market conditions. These plans are preliminary and will still need Macay's Board approval.

We trust that the foregoing clarifies the matter.
