[Alpha Biz=(Chicago) Reporter Paul Lee] The final round of negotiations for the sale of HMM broke down. Harim, which had been selected as the preferred bidder, plunged. However, Pan Ocean, which was feared to raise funds for the acquisition through paid-in capital increase, surged.
According to Market Point on the 7th, HMM closed at 19,080 won, down 80 won (0.42%) from the previous trading day. Although it was weak in the 8% range during the market, it was able to reduce its fall due to the influx of low-priced buying.
Harim (136480), who had high expectations for the acquisition, also closed the deal at 3,135 won, down 605 won (16.18%). On the other hand, Harim's affiliate, Pan Ocean (028670), surged 21.09% to close at 4,335 won. Regarding the acquisition of HMM, stock market sources earlier mentioned the possibility that Pan Ocean, which has a market capitalization of 2 trillion won, could carry out a paid-in capital increase of up to 3 trillion won.
