Alibaba cuts stake in SingPost via $33.3m deal

Alibaba’s interest in the company is now down to 11.34% from 14.56% previously.

Chinese e-commerce titan Alibaba reduced its stake in postal service provider Singapore Post through an off-market transaction with an undisclosed party.

In a disclosure Friday, SingPost said Alibaba sold that day 72.5 million shares in the company for a total of $33.3m, equivalent to $0.46 per share.

The move sees the tech giant’s shareholding in the Singaporean postal service provider declining from 14.56% to 11.34%. Despite this, Alibaba continues to be a substantial shareholder of SingPost.

In March, SingPost unveiled a five-pronged growth strategy to unlock shareholder value and boost growth over the next three years.

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.
