# SG Group Faces Change of Control as New Investor Triggers Mandatory Offer

SG Group Holdings Ltd ( (HK:1657) ) has issued an announcement.

SG Group Holdings has announced that Hong Kong Weiye Software Co., Limited has agreed to acquire approximately 74.91% of its issued share capital from existing sellers for about HK$198.5 million in cash. The consideration was set after arm’s length negotiations, taking into account the group’s business, historical financial performance, financial position, liquidity and trading history on the Hong Kong market.

Upon completion of the transaction, the offeror will hold nearly three-quarters of SG Group’s shares, triggering an obligation under Hong Kong’s Takeovers Code to make an unconditional mandatory cash offer for all remaining shares not already owned or agreed to be acquired. The move signals a major change of control for SG Group, with potential implications for minority shareholders and the future strategic direction of the company once the offer is made and trading resumes.
