The explosive growth of the LED lighting market in 2014 led to major changes in the market structure. Enterprises in all segments of the upper, middle and lower reaches have seized more market share and the competition has become fiercer. In order to cope with competition and consolidate the existing market position, M&A, as one of the most convenient and effective “rises”, has been favored by LED companies. Compared with previous years, the current mergers and acquisitions between enterprises are more frequent, and the integration direction has also changed from 'strong mergers and acquisitions weak' to 'strong mergers and acquisitions strong'. The purpose of LED mergers and acquisitions is to extend the industrial chain to achieve diversified development. In addition, more is to consider the strength of the channel, brand and capacity, and expand the scale.

Since the beginning of this year, the integration and mergers and acquisitions of the LED industry have emerged in an endless stream. Whether it is the horizontal integration of 100% acquisition of competitors or the vertical acquisition of large proportion of equity of downstream enterprises, these acquisitions bring a new atmosphere to the LED industry. LED companies treat The integrated enterprises must have spent "big money", of course, this has brought new development opportunities to the LED industry.

Tongfang shares acquired Zhen Mingli, THTF ES holds 51.6% equity

On June 19, Tongfang shares subscribed for 1 billion new shares issued by Zhen Mingli Holdings Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as “Zhen Mingli”) through its wholly-owned overseas subsidiary THTF Energy-Saving Holding Limited at a price of HK$0.9/share. The face value is HK$0.1). The subscription price totaled HK$900 million. Upon completion of this share subscription, Tongfang Shares will hold a 51.6% stake in Zhen Mingli through THTF ES and issue a comprehensive tender offer to Zhen Mingli shareholders.

It is understood that Zhen Mingli has changed from a performance in 2011, and after a year-end loss of 1.43 billion Hong Kong dollars, it has never recovered. In just two or three years, its sales have fallen sharply, the market share at home and abroad has shrunk sharply, the top management has been frequently replaced, and elite talents have been lost.

The lighting "empire", which used to have a complete industrial chain from upstream epitaxial chips to downstream LED lighting applications, was struggling in the storm, almost to the end.

The reason for this is that it is attributed to the chaotic management of Zhen Mingli, the arbitrarily foreign investment, and the weak bank financing ability. • The impaired loss on the goodwill and the acquisition of available-for-sale investments, and the gross profit margin decreased as a result of the surge in labour costs and operating expenses, as a result of the impairment loss on the property, plant and equipment In order to make provision for inventories and prepare for bad debts in response to the weak economic situation, it has accrued operating losses.

Passing the audit opinion is not clear about the equity change and its disclosure.

Smect has certain complementarity with Hongli Optoelectronics in many aspects such as products, customers and sales channels. Its excellent assets, good development prospects and strong profitability are conducive to increasing the value of listed companies and bringing better returns to shareholders of listed companies.

Through this transaction, Hongli Optoelectronics not only acquired the quality assets of Smect, but also included the management team of Smect in the listed company, which is beneficial to the long-term sustainable development of listed companies. Simai has complemented Hongli Optoelectronics in terms of customers and sales channels. The two parties will deepen integration in technology, market, management and finance to achieve synergy.
