Baiyunshan gains on fundraising plan

SHARES of Guangzhou Baiyunshan Pharmaceutical Holdings surged by the daily limit of 10 percent yesterday after it said it’s raising 10 billion yuan (US$1.6 billion) via a private placement to investors, including a private equity fund founded by Alibaba Chairman Jack Ma and his business partners.

Baiyunshan is raising the funds from five institutional investors, including Ma’s Yunfeng Capital and state-backed Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group, the parent of Baiyunshan.

Yunfeng Capital is to subscribe to 500 million yuan worth of shares through the private placement.

Baiyunshan, which is selling a total of 419.5 million A shares at 23.84 yuan each, plans to use the proceeds for mergers and acquisitions, building a logistics system and an e-commerce platform, according to a stock exchange filing yesterday.

The company is also selling a maximum of 505 million yuan worth of shares to 4,897 executives and employees.

Baiyunshan resumed trading yesterday and closed at 29.82 yuan after being suspended since December 3 pending a major announcement.

Changjiang Securities yesterday placed a “buy” rating on the Baiyunshan.
