Details Investors Should Note

The voluntary unconditional general offer for Sen Yue Holdings Limited by Cenvios Holdings, managed by ZICO Capital Pte. Ltd., is nearing completion, with the offeror now controlling nearly 90% of the company. The high rate of acceptances, especially from independent shareholders, is a critical development. This strong support paves the way for a potential voluntary delisting from the SGX Catalist board, a move that may significantly affect the liquidity and future trading of Sen Yue shares.

Breakdown of Acceptances and Holdings

• Offer Acceptances:
  • Total valid acceptances received: 2,910,621,746 shares (89.89% of issued shares).
  • Of these, 2,848,809,046 shares (87.98%) came from Undertaking Shareholders who had given irrevocable undertakings to accept the offer.
  • An additional 377,000 shares (0.01%) were tendered by Yap Yao Hui (Ye Yaohui), a concert party of the offeror.
• Pre-Offer Holdings:
  • Prior to the offer, Cenvios Holdings and its concert parties owned 1,756,327,000 shares (54.24%).
• No Additional Purchases:
  • There have been no further acquisitions outside of the offer acceptances since the announcement of the offer.

Implications for Shareholders and Share Price

• Voluntary Delisting Likely: With over 75% acceptances from independent shareholders, Cenvios Holdings can now seek voluntary delisting, subject to the offer being deemed fair and reasonable by the independent financial adviser. If delisting proceeds, shareholders may lose the ability to trade their shares on the open market, impacting share liquidity and possibly affecting price discovery.
• Potential for Compulsory Acquisition: If Cenvios Holdings crosses the 90% threshold, they may exercise rights to compulsorily acquire all remaining shares under Singapore law. Current acceptances are just below this mark (89.89%), so investors should watch for further updates.
• Action Required: Shareholders who have not yet accepted the offer have until 31 March 2026, 5:30 p.m. (Singapore time) to do so, unless the offer is extended. Investors are strongly urged to consider the implications of delisting and to respond promptly.
