New World Development’s (NWD) dollar bonds continued to trend higher after NWS Holdings, the conglomerate’s flagship company said that the pre-conditions to the sale of its shares to Century Acquisition were met on October 6. Century Acquisition is a construction subsidiary unit of Chow Tai Fook Enterprises (CTFE), a privately-owned conglomerate spread across multiple industries. CTFE holds about 45.2% of NWD shares, and had offered to buy ~97% of NWS Holdings’ share for a deal value of HKD 35.8bn ($4.6bn). If successful, this transaction would help lighten the debt load at the parent company, NWD.
