Relative to your query/ request for clarification of the information stated in the news article entitled “Leyte tycoon takes on nationwide housing gap, readies ABG tender offer” published by InsiderPH.com, the pertinent portion of which reads:
“Rising tycoon Francis Lloyd Chua’s PremiumLands consortium is gearing up to make a buyout offer to minority stockholders of Asiabest Group International after purchasing nearly 67 percent of the listed shell company.
‘We’re looking at either January or February,’ said Jan Michael Lim, chief investment officer of Chua-led Premium Infinite Ventures, the parent firm of PremiumLands.
Lim explained details were still being finalized, including the offer price. PremiumLands acquired ABG for P510 million.
He said this is equivalent to P2.55 per share, which will serve as the floor price for the mandated tender offer.
‘Our financial advisor might have a different perspective so we’re listening to that. We just can’t go below P2.55,’ he said during an interview with reporters and editors.
. . . .”
Please be informed that PLC confirms the statements made by its officers as stated in the news article but clarifies that no final terms on the tender offer have been set yet. Final details of the tender offer will be released once PLC files the Mandatory Tender Offer Report with SEC and provided to ABG.
