Clarification of News Report
We refer to your request for clarification/confirmation of the news article entitled “Emperador considering S$1-b Singapore listing” posted in Manila Standard (Online Edition) on July 07, 2021, which reported in part that:
“Emperador Inc., a liquor company owned by businessman Andrew Tan, is considering a secondary listing in Singapore that could raise a maximum of S$1 billion (P36.9 billion).
Bloomberg reported that Emperador started engaging financial advisers on the planned listing which could happen before the end of the year.
. . . .”
The Company clarifies that the management is evaluating a dual listing in Singapore. Emperador Inc. has leveraged its strong market position in the Philippines to establish a global brands portfolio of brandy and whisky that are available in over 100 countries. The strong operating and financial performance delivered by Emperador Inc. has been noticed by global institutional investors focused in the spirits segment.
Emperador Inc. is on the constant lookout to grow its global presence and a secondary listing in Singapore could be an excellent opportunity to raise the profile of an international company headquartered in the Philippines. We will submit the required approvals and public disclosures in the appropriate time regarding our efforts in this direction.
We trust this satisfies the requirements of the Exchange.
