Important Information for Shareholders
- Significant Change in Control: The Offeror now controls a dominant majority stake (87.17%) in Olive Tree Estates Limited. This level of ownership is significant and may lead to substantial changes in the company’s governance, management, and strategic direction.
- Potential Delisting Risk: With the Offeror and its concert parties holding more than 85% of the shares, shareholders should be aware of the possibility of a future delisting from the Singapore Exchange, as the public float may fall below the minimum requirement.
- Limited Liquidity: The sharp reduction in the free float is likely to impact the liquidity of Olive Tree Estates Limited shares. This could result in wider bid-ask spreads and increased volatility in share price.
- Price Sensitivity: The offer’s closure and the substantial acceptance level are material events that could move the share price. Investors should monitor for further announcements regarding potential corporate actions, such as compulsory acquisition of remaining shares or changes to the company’s listing status.
- No Additional Share Purchases: Aside from the offer acceptances, the Offeror did not acquire additional shares on or off market during the offer period, implying that the ownership increase came solely from the completed offer and prior acquisitions.

Potential Impact on Share Price
The offer’s successful closure, resulting in the Offeror and its concert parties owning 87.17% of Olive Tree Estates Limited, is a material, price-sensitive event. This outcome could lead to significant share price movement due to the potential for reduced liquidity, a lower public float, and the possibility of future delisting or compulsory acquisition of minority shares. Investors should closely monitor further company announcements and regulatory disclosures.
