CHEUNG Kong Holdings has offered US$24 billion in stock to buy out unit Hutchison Whampoa and will spin off its property assets in the biggest reorganisation of Hong Kong billionaire Li Ka-shing's corporate empire.
Cheung Kong investors will swap their shares in the Hong Kong developer for stakes in a new holding company called CK Hutchison Holdings Ltd, the company said in an exchange filing. CK Hutchison will then issue new shares to buy out minority owners of Hutchison Whampoa, a conglomerate which controls ports, retail and telecommunications operations.
