REASONS FOR AND BENEFITS OF THE ACQUISITION
The principal business activity of the Group is research, development, manufacture and sale of a wide range of pharmaceutical products mainly intravenous infusion solution.
Currently, part of raw materials for infusion solution products (mainly multi-layer co-extrusion film for non PVC soft bag infusion solution as well as rubber stopper and liners for infusion solution in various type of packaging) are purchased from the Target Company. Therefore, the Board expects the Completion will create synergy between the Group and the Target Company such that the stability in supply and quality of raw materials can be guaranteed and the material cost of the Group can be lowered.
The Directors consider that the Agreement is entered into after arm’s length negotiation between the Company and the Vendor and the terms (including the Consideration) therein are on normal commercial terms and the Acquisition is fair and reasonable and in the interests of the Company and the Shareholders as a whole.
