TCL Electronics Holdings ( (HK:1070) ) has issued an update.

TCL Electronics has updated its strategic home entertainment partnership with Sony by amending the planned joint venture agreement between subsidiary TTE Corporation and Sony. The amendment introduces a cap of JPY100 billion, or about HK$4.9 billion, on the total put option price Sony can receive for selling its shares in the new joint venture across three tranches.

The cap was set after arm’s length negotiations, based on projected revenue and EBITDA of the new company, the flat but stable long-term outlook of the global TV industry, and indicative pricing for Sony’s potential exit. TCL views the cap as a fair and reasonable estimate of Sony’s maximum payout exposure, providing greater clarity on the financial implications of the partnership and limiting the group’s potential future obligations under the put option arrangement.
