Tsingtao Brewery announced that it was informed that Asahi Group Holding Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Asahi Group"), the second largest shareholder, had signed a share purchase agreement with five entities under Fosun International Co., Ltd., and planned to transfer its 65,438+07.99% H shares of the company to Fosun Group. This is less than two months since Tsingtao Brewery revealed that Asahi Group is studying the transfer of equity, and the progress far exceeds market expectations.
Previously, there was a lot of speculation about the receiver. According to the agreement of that year, Asahi Beer needed two conditions to sell Tsingtao Beer shares. On the one hand, the recipient must hold at least 65,438+09.99% of the shares, and at the same time, it must directly or indirectly engage in beer production or sales or related businesses in China, or enjoy relevant rights and interests. Therefore, many people in the industry speculate that the capital in the industry is the most likely to take over, but it is somewhat unexpected to spend the capital outside the industry, Fosun Group.
