But to the previous number can you might some explanation.

Speaker Change: Okay.

Speaker Change: In the previous conference call I mentioned that the whole process may take some time and I said as such because if you look at the whole deal process up until the time that the deal actually closes there was a certain step that will be quite time consuming.

Speaker Change: John This is a ship.

Speaker Change: Hum.

Speaker Change: Hum.

Speaker Change:

Speaker Change: We should do.

Speaker Change: Yeah.

Speaker Change: Do you sometimes do.

Speaker Change: It is actually right and true that dated September the 30th we executed an S. P. A share purchase agreement and there is another process that would have to follow after the execution of the agreement, which is that we need to receive approval from seven different countries with regards to the combination of the company.

Speaker Change: Smith.

Speaker Change: Now I also personally had a very closely red and followed.

Okay.

Speaker Change: It is only after we go through this merger approval can we actually arrive at the closure of this deal and then the relevant payment will be made to US and then we will be able to finalize the whole deal process.

Speaker Change: Oh cool, yes, I'm sure Truman.

Speaker Change: Oh, Daniel bogie by the jumbo there either on the utilities.

Speaker Change: Globally smell.

Speaker Change: And in terms of the timing of this basically our goal is to.

Speaker Change: Finish and finalize the process by the end of the first quarter of next year.

Speaker Change: Critical to trigger she's gonna toss homeowner colleague codelco.

Speaker Change: And Oh, sorry should be similar.

Speaker Change: And basically this is the reason why I had previously mentioned that the whole process may be time consuming.

Speaker Change: Yeah could you.

Speaker Change: Who could make it is loan money to whittle down from Cushing and pooling in deal.

Speaker Change: Got it wouldn't be I suppose a minute.

Speaker Change: We need to do that and it goes from Calgary upon mosquito.

Speaker Change: I have to tell them mumbo between Germany, though.

Speaker Change: And I think there was also a.

Speaker Change: A bit of a misunderstanding with regards to the price the amount of the deal as you know when it comes to an M&A deal even if the asset is a same asset that the M&A deal structure can take many different forms.

Speaker Change: Oh cool.

Speaker Change: You.

Speaker Change: So global generic and loosen you shipped some young do well.

Speaker Change: Oh.

Your room studio room, Gimbal, you didn't know him but to show you some of them.

Speaker Change: As a matter of fact, the whole sale or sell off process for this asset had actually began in the early summer of 2020 three.

Speaker Change: Oh cool car doing it so it's really a group hitting it on any of them.

Speaker Change: So each one of these ships I don't do it all to.

Speaker Change: So basically.

Speaker Change: Cool cause socially culturally anomalies.

Speaker Change: So they're in the process of going through this deal we went through a bidding process in 2024, and we were able to shortlist the preferred a potential buyers and that in fact had as you know been disclosed.

Speaker Change: Oh cool.

Peter: Peter you really cool.

Peter: 111, because you need to I didn't really go out to them to give them some of them.

Peter: So you go.

Peter: Part of the group I couldn't commision.

Peter: You shipped some young mother ship your mother.

Peter: So you got hold your tongue b to G tough on well, how queen and or put in Oh, one doesn't double in the.

Peter: You hit on in Colombia on duty I'll touch on the.

Peter: You shipped some loans to PD, one plus others for me, though.

Speaker Change: Now regarding the bidding process and the price setting process. It. Unlike other types of deal the $10 8 billion. We on the the the figure that we had previously disclosed was based off of December end 2023 figures, including the facilities the equipment the land the asset as well as the <unk>.

Speaker Change: Liabilities and working capital it once again just to elaborate and highlight it was based off of end of 'twenty three figure.

Cause he who who don't go to a new ship borne him to call someone get even greater.

Speaker Change: And the other question to each month to.

Jim when you ship some of them are kitchen rule also I'd be me goose things on the London Cluj affirm didn't Oh cosmos.

Speaker Change: Cause I know, who she didn't know John's for me, though.

Speaker Change: So I mentioned that the closing is expected to happen in first quarter of 2025, and one of the Hum Special thing to note for this particular deal is that with regards to the asset value, which is the facilities and a production asset is valued as of end of 'twenty three and its just from that point.

On that this asset is not going to depreciate.

Speaker Change: You should go normally boomed, you transform them into someone's house on them.

Speaker Change:

Speaker Change: Two quick ones on Dublin take them to Oh tycoons condone.

Speaker Change: Some of them should be remodeled kitchen, and cook them at school issue on some good to me.

Speaker Change: So a man who tired months, sometimes it'll hugging.

Speaker Change: Even though.

Speaker Change: And so how this whole payment is going to be settled is the difference between the liabilities the working capital and the borrowings as of December end of 2023, and the figure as of at the closing of 2025. So it is only the difference and this amount that would be.

Speaker Change: Subject to the the settlement to the payment settlement.

Speaker Change: On Thunder for Egypt.

Speaker Change: <unk> come out with some cool shape will be Nick Holmes from Gogo.

Speaker Change: I know you didn't tell me that would push you want to get a feel.

Speaker Change: She will be and then you should plan on it.

I'll touch on them probably in the middle.

Speaker Change: So until you go off of who she didn't commit further towards the.

Speaker Change: Thomas Andrew Mcgee children couldn't even when the enemy, though mhm.

Speaker Change: [noise], which means that the the earnings performance in the business performance that is generated by the C. A entity, which is the Kwangchow LCD TV fab is going to be reflected in basically in your 2020 for the entity had actually turned around and profit.

Speaker Change: So basically what that goes to show is that compared to the amount and the price that we had previously disclosed I can assure you is that that number is not going to decline.

Yeah, you don't who logically coupons sold Shanxi pool, and showing a school or articles and until you go to Egypt, you won't be conducted on the computer in their school or Tungus shoes can make you can do your total used to speak with them on that.

Speaker Change: Dodging, a kid anybody who saw it home so I need to Milton here.

Speaker Change: Who do it is what you'll notice here, but could you sort of walk us through that.

Speaker Change: So I think it'll be helpful for you to make your projections based upon the rationale and the logic that I have just laid out but since we have not yet closed 20 since fiscal year 2024 accounts yet once the whole deal is closed there may be some difference in the actual price and actual payment.

Speaker Change: At would be received so once we make that payment to finalize we would be able to come back to you and provide you with more detail.

Speaker Change: She's younger so pumps for.

Speaker Change: Oh sure it doesn't pull when you can watch them on and on.

Speaker Change: Oh, so you're going to touch the deal with them.

Speaker Change: Basically juggle Tau ASO really none of them are grown tune.

Speaker Change: Colorado called single Ramadan.

Speaker Change: At the end of the day the market will assess as it wishes, but from my perspective I believe that this actually is the deal transaction that is both a win win for the buyer as well as the seller.

Speaker Change: Since we have in place a structure that allows us to respond to changes in liquidity and to eliminate any mismatch in cash held by different geographies as we can employ and use global cash pooling mechanism and hence we believe that with the cash at about.

However, with a continuation of the macro uncertainties as well as heightened volatility that we're seeing on the demand side we are.

Speaker Change: Very closely monitoring the acceptance of these differentiated and unique products as well as the pace of market growth as we adjust and respond accordingly at this point in time, we are now producing and supplying notebook foldable product to one of the our global customers.
