Company announcement, 4-Nov-2021
The voting rights over a 10% stake had on 1-Jun-2021 been assigned by Mr Chan to Blue River, which already owns 48.23% of PYE. 14 days before that, South Shore (0577) lost control of the 51.76% stake when the stake's holding company was sold by a lender to an unnamed third party for HK$150m. On 29-Jul-2021 Mr Chan agreed to sell the entire stake to Blue River, but the Stock Exchange regards this as a Reverse Takeover of PYE, a decision which will be appealed to the Listing Committee.
