in history, only three stocks entered the market with green shoe funds
Looking at the history of a shares, there are few precedents for the introduction of green shoe mechanism. According to incomplete statistics by Chinese reporters of securities companies, a total of 11 enterprises in Shanghai and Shenzhen have introduced the green shoe mechanism. These enterprises include Agricultural Bank Of China Limited(601288) , Industrial And Commercial Bank Of China Limited(601398) , Postal Savings Bank Of China Co.Ltd(601658) , China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) , China Everbright Bank Company Limited Co.Ltd(601818) , Baiji shenzhou-u, China Resources Microelectronics Limited(688396) , China Railway Construction Heavy Industry Corporation Limited(688425) , Everdisplay Optronics (Shanghai) Co.Ltd(688538) – u, as well as Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation(688981) and China Mobile.
Interviewees told reporters that the green shoe mechanism will be introduced only when the fund-raising scale is large. The fund-raising scale of the four banks is very large, and the other Baiji China and Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation(688981) are all tens of billions.
From the performance of these 11 companies on the first day of listing, only Baiji Shenzhou fell, with a decline of about 20%. Other enterprises have increased more or less. The reporter noted that among the 11 enterprises, only 3 have adopted the practice of buying stocks from the secondary market to stabilize the stock price. In addition to China Mobile and Baiji Shenzhou, the other one is China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) .
The reporter noted that in terms of the protection of green shoe funds in the secondary market, the two telecom giants China Mobile and China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) are relatively similar, while Baiji Shenzhou is another scene.
Baiji Shenzhou announced that as of December 20, 2021, the lead underwriter China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) had used the funds obtained from the over allotment of this offering to buy 17.258 million shares from the secondary market in the form of competitive trading, with a total amount of 2.827 billion yuan, an average purchase price of 163.80 yuan / share, a maximum price of 171.99 yuan / share and a minimum price of 155.02 yuan / share. The cumulative number of shares repurchased by China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) has reached the limit of the number of shares issued under the over allotment option.
In other words, the over allotment shares of Baiji Shenzhou are all obtained from the secondary market. There is no need for additional issuance. China Mobile and China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) did not reach the limit of the number of shares issued by the over allotment option after the specified protection period.
Therefore, China Mobile and China Telecom Corporation Limited(601728) need to issue additional shares. For underwriters, the issuance of additional shares also means new underwriting fee income.
