"It's true!" The wave of debt bearing M & A of real estate enterprises may attack
On January 7, the real estate sector rose significantly against the trend, and several real estate stocks rose by more than 5%.
Behind this, a relevant heavy news spread in the market.
On January 6, some media reported that at present, the bank has informed some large high-quality real estate enterprises that the relevant M & A loans will no longer be included in the relevant indicators of the "three red lines" for the debt bearing acquisition of the projects of the insured enterprises.
subsequently, a number of real estate enterprises confirmed to the reporter of Shanghai Securities News that the news was true.
"It's true! According to regulatory requirements, the bank's M & A loans for the acquisition of real estate enterprises in danger are not included in the relevant indicators of the" three red lines "of real estate enterprises." A top 20 real estate executives told reporters.
A head real estate enterprise told reporters that recently, a number of financial institutions have come to communicate with the company on relevant projects, but the specific relevant indicators still need to be further clarified.
Insiders of a top ten real estate enterprises told reporters that the instruction was told to real estate enterprises through "window guidance". At present, the company has no plan to collect mergers and acquisitions (for projects of real estate enterprises in danger).
However, some private real estate enterprises told reporters that they had not received the policy information.
Industry insiders told reporters that the policy aims to promote large high-quality real estate enterprises to merge and acquire endangered real estate enterprises, so as to effectively resolve risks and stabilize market expectations.
There are two main modes of enterprise M & A, one is asset acquisition, the other is debt acquisition. In the past few years, the real estate industry has staged scenes of big fish eating small fish, but most of them belong to asset acquisition.
The so-called debt bearing M & A refers to that the acquirer undertakes or pays off the debts of the target company as part or all of the consideration for purchasing equity in equity M & A. This is mainly used in the acquisition of insolvent enterprises.
The advantage of debt bearing acquisition lies in the preferential conditions of tax relief and debt repayment. In the early stage, it was mainly used in the transfer and restructuring of loss making state-owned enterprises.
"Debt acquisition has long been common in the real estate industry." Relevant professionals told reporters that in the past, many acquisition cases in the industry were debt bearing acquisitions, and their potential risks are mainly reflected in that after the acquisition of the target company by real estate enterprises, if the market is in an upward trend, it is relatively small; If the market goes down, the acquired assets may face a discount or even difficult to realize, and there may be risks. Therefore, the key is the pricing of the transaction. If the acquired party is unwilling to lower the transaction conditions of the project, or it is difficult to reach a transaction, it is very important to predict the future trend of the real estate market.
At the end of August 2021, sun Hongbin, chairman of the board of directors of rongchuang China, said at the performance meeting that there is basically no M & a market at present, because the seller needs M & a debt at the same time of M & A regardless of the price, which is impossible.
