Citic Envirotech share trading halts after losing free float status

The company is no longer extending its exit offer beyond 17 January.

The Singapore Exchange (SGX) suspended the trading of shares of Citic Envirotech after its public float fell to less than 10%, according to an SGX filing.

Rule 723 of the Listing Manual requires companies to ensure that at least 10% of total issued shares excluding treasury shares in a class that is listed be held by the public. Otherwise, SGX may suspend trading of the class.

On the same announcement Citic Envirotech said that it will not extend its exit offer beyond 17 January, 5:30 PM. Any acceptance received after the closing date will be rejected.

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.
