Aspial-led consortium seeks to acquire AF Global

Aspial and JK Global each hold 50% of the shares within the consortium.

A consortium comprising Aspial and JK Global Investment is seeking to acquire all of AF Global Limited’s shares at $0.11 apiece via a scheme of arrangement.

According to Aspial’s bourse filing, Aspial and JK Global each hold 50% of the shares within the consortium.

Based on the 288.7 million scheme shares held by shareholders, the consideration will cost the consortium about $31.8m.

The offer price represents a premium of about 23.6% over AF Global’s closing price of $0.089 on 29 September.

Should the scheme be approved, the consortium intends to delist AF Global.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
