Q&M Dental to acquire all remaining Aoxin Q&M shares at $0.0321 each

The offer will close on 28 May.

Q&M Dental Group has made an unconditional cash offer to acquire all remaining shares in its unit, Aoxin Q&M, at $0.0321 per share.

This offer follows Q&M’s recent stake increase in Aoxin Q&M from 33.33% to 50.53% which came after Q&M acquired 87,973,480 shares from Health Field Enterprises Limited (HFEL) pursuant to a share security agreement dated 12 October 2016.

The acquisition was completed at the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $0.0321 per share for trades executed on 22 April.

It also forms part of the partial settlement of profit guarantee amounts owed by Aoxin’s CEO, Dr. Shao Yongxin, and HFEL under the master agreement dated 13 November 2013.

On 17 April, Q&M issued a letter of demand to Dr. Shao for the repayment of $13m over a shortfall under a profit guarantee arrangement, which was part of a 2016 restructuring related to the spin-off and listing of Aoxin.

Assuming 100% acceptance of the unconditional cash offer combined with the share security agreement, Q&M could acquire up to 341,009,110 Aoxin shares, representing 66.67% of the total Aoxin shares.

The offer will close on Wednesday, 28 May, at 5.30 pm.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
