HONG KONG (Reuters) - Jiangsu Rongsheng Heavy Industries Co Ltd has appointed Morgan Stanleyand JP Morganto finalize plans for its long-awaited IPO in Hong Kong, aiming to raise up to $1.5 billion in the fourth quarter, sources told Reuters on Tuesday.
This is Rongsheng’s latest bid to go public after it failed to raise more than $2 billion from a planned IPO in Hong Kong in 2008, mainly as a result of the global financial crisis.
Rongsheng"s early main shareholders included an Asia investment arm of Goldman Sachs, U.S. hedge fund D.E. Shaw and New Horizon, a China fund founded by the son of Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao.
The three investors sold off their stakes in Rongsheng for a profit early this year, said the sources familiar with the situation. Representatives for the banks, funds and Rongsheng all declined to comment.
Rongsheng’s revived IPO plan comes at a challenging time. Smaller domestic rival, New Century Shipbuilding, slashed its Singapore IPO in half last week, planning to raise up to $560 million from the originally planned $1.24 billion due to weak market conditions.
Given uncertainty in the global shipbuilding business environment as well as growing concerns over a huge flow of fund-raising events in Hong Kong, investment bankers suggest the potential size for Rongsheng could be $1 billion to $1.5 billion, according to the sources.
Rongsheng is seeking to tap capital markets to fund fast growth and aims to catch up with bigger state-owned rivals such as Guangzhou Shipyard International Co Ltd.
Rongsheng won a $484 million deal to build four ships for Oman Shipping Co last year. The vessels would carry exports from an iron ore pellet plant in northern Oman which is expected to begin production in the second half of 2010.
SHANGHAI, March 5 (Reuters) - China Rongsheng said it had scrapped a warrant issue that would have given the heavily indebted shipbuilder a HK$3 billion ($416 million) cash lifeline after it was unable to contact the offer’s only subscriber.
Rongsheng’s shares fell as much as 8.1 percent in early Thursday trade, after it said it would no longer issue HK$510 million worth of warrants to Kingwin Victory Investment Ltd, a Cayman Islands-incorporated investment firm.
In a stock exchange filing, Rongsheng said it had scrapped the issue as it could not contact Kingwin’s owner Wang Ping after media reports said he had been detained by the Beijing police for matters not related to Rongsheng.
“The company has no information as to the details of the incident and has been unable to contact Mr. Wang Ping, which casts doubt over the ability of the subscriber to perform its obligations,” Rongsheng said.
Rongsheng, one of China’s largest shipbuilders, was gearing to move into oil exploration and change its name after becoming one of the most prolific casualties of the global shipping slump. It came close to insolvency in 2013 before agreeing with banks to extend its loans until the end of this year.
The warrant issue that Rongsheng had agreed with Kingwin in October would have entitled subscribers to buy up to 1.7 billion new shares at HK$1.60 each.
This would have raised about HK$3.23 billion for Rongsheng, the firm said at the time. A warrant entitles the holder to buy stock from the issuer at a specific price within a time frame. ($1 = 7.7552 Hong Kong dollars) (Reporting by Brenda Goh; Editing by Miral Fahmy)
