Magnus Energy subsidiary scraps purchase of Goyes Agri-Food Investment
Claire Huang 23 February 2017
Magnus Energy Group on Thursday said that its subsidiary APAC Coal will not proceed with the proposed acquisition of Goyes Agri-Food Investment.
In a filing to the bourse operator, the group said that the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) has advised APAC that due to the structure and nature of the transaction, it is unlikely that the merged group will meet ASX's requirements for admission to the official list of ASX.
APAC is listed in Australia.
In mid-2016, Magnus said that APAC would buy 100 per cent of the shares in Goyes Agri-Food Investment from Sharp Year Ventures for A$136 million (S$147.7 million).
TWO former senior employees of UOB Kay Hian Private Limited (UOBKH) were charged on Wednesday for allegedly lying to the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) in relation to reports on a then Catalist aspirant. Lan Kang Ming, 38, and Wee Toon Lee, 34, each face three charges of providing MAS with false information in October 2018 in relation to due diligence reports on an unidentified company applying to list on the Catalist board of the Singapore Exchange. MAS said in a media statement on Wednesday that it was performing an onsite inspection of UOBKH between June and August 2018, to assess the latter's controls, policies and procedures in relation to its role as an issue manager for Initial Public Offering (IPOs). During the examination, Lan and Wee were said to have provided different versions of a due diligence report relating to background checks on a company applying to be listed on the Catalist board of the Singapore Exchange. UOBKH had acted as the issue manager
