Foxconn unit to sell entire equity stake in Tsinghua Unigroup
TAIWAN’S Foxconn, the world’s largest contract electronics maker, said on Friday (Dec 16) its subsidiary in China has agreed to sell entire equity stake in embattled Chinese chip conglomerate Tsinghua Unigroup.
Foxconn said in a statement to the Taipei stock exchange that Xingwei, 99 per cent controlled by its China-listed unit Foxconn Industrial Internet, has agreed to sell its holdings for at least 5.38 billion yuan (S$1,048 million).
Foxconn disclosed in July that it was a shareholder of Tsinghua Unigroup. Xingwei controls a 48.9 per cent stake in a different entity that itself holds a 20 per cent stake in the vehicle that owns all of Unigroup. REUTERS
