Halcyon Agri to issue new ordinary shares at $0.22 apiece

This will be done on the basis of one rights share for every two existing ordinary shares.

Halcyon Agri Corporation Limited is proposing to undertake a renounceable non-underwritten rights issue of up to 797.51 million new ordinary shares to raise $174.7m, according to a filing. It has an issue price of $0.22 apiece.

This will be done on the basis of one rights share for every two existing ordinary shares held by the entitled shareholders. The company has appointed DBS Bank as the manager of the rights issue.

Halcyon notes that 75% of the net proceeds from the issue will be allotted to operating cash flows, whilst the remaining 25% will be distributed to other fixed commitments such as funding capital expenditures, servicing of term debts, and other fixed contractual payments.

If approved by shareholders, the share issue mandate will authorise the directors to allot and issue shares of up to 50% of the total number of issued shares as of the date of the annual meeting.

The company’s major shareholder, Chinese state-owned enterprise Sinochem International, is said to subscribe for its pro rata entitlement to the rights shares. Sinochem has an interest in an aggregate of 877.06 million shares, representing approximately 54.99% of the total number of issued shares.

However, Halcyon notes that the right shares will not be offered to shareholders with registered addresses outside Singapore. Entitlements to rights shares for foreign shareholders will be sold “nil-paid” on the SGX-ST after dealings in the provisional allotments of rights shares commence.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
