Yangzijiang Shipbuilding completes 10% stake purchase in Poseidon

This forms part of a broader transaction involving up to 34% of Poseidon.

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) Ltd. has completed its acquisition of a 10% stake in Poseidon Corp., according to an SGX filing dated 29 May.

The company said completion follows conditional share purchase agreements signed on 10 March 2026.

The stake is held by affiliates of Fairfax Financial Holdings and the Washington Family.

Following completion, Poseidon has become an associated company of the Yangzijiang group.

The consideration was fully satisfied in cash and funded using internal resources, the company said. No change in terms was disclosed at completion.

Yangzijiang said it has entered into a second amended and restated shareholders’ agreement with other Poseidon shareholders, setting out post-completion rights and obligations.

The group previously announced in March 2026 that it would acquire the 10% interest for about $1.05b as part of a broader transaction involving up to 34% of Poseidon.

An independent valuation by Kroll (HK) Limited had valued the stake at between $840.4m and $1.03b.

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.
