Yongye International Inc. (YONG: Quote) announced that the special committee of its board of directors has received a revised proposal from a consortium led by its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Zishen Wu to take the company private for $7.00 per share.

In the Revised Proposal, the Buyer Consortium proposed to increase the merger consideration payable to holders of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the company under the Merger Agreement, from $6.69 per Share to $7.00 per Share.

The company's special committee of its board of directors received the revised proposal dated March 26, 2014 from a consortium that comprises the company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Zishen Wu, MSPEA Agriculture Holding Limited, Lead Rich International Limited and Full Alliance International Limited.

The company said its Special Committee is considering the Revised Proposal with its legal and financial advisors. As a reminder, no decisions have been made by the Special Committee with respect to the Company's response to the Revised Proposal.

On 5th March, Yongye International said that it did not receive approval from at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company for going private proposal dated on September 23, 2013 from Full Alliance International Limited consortium.Therefore, the Merger Agreement was not approved by the company's stockholders.


In September 2013, Yongye International announced that it entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Full Alliance International Limited or Holdco, a British Virgin Islands company, Yongye International Limited or Parent, a Cayman Islands exempted company with limited liability, and Yongye International Merger Sub Limited, a Nevada corporation and a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of Parent.

As the Merger Agreement, upon completion of the Merger, each of the Company's shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger would be converted into the right to receive $6.69 in cash without interest except for Shares owned by Holdco, Parent and Merger Sub, including shares to be contributed to Parent by Holdco, Zishen Wu. The offer represented a premium of 39.7% over the closing price of the Company's common stock of $4.79 per share on October 12, 2012, the last trading day prior to the Company's announcement of its receipt of a "going-private" proposal.

I'm a shareholder for SIAF and just hear about the buyout. Can someone tell me what the non-dil. EPS for the last 4 quarters was? Thanks

Consider Yongye's If Its Buyout Price Is Raised To $11.50

http://seekingalpha.com/article/1623182-consider-yongyes-if-its-buyout-price-is-raised-to-11-50

Some things in life are worth the wait. I analyzed Yongye International (YONG) in an earlier article and concluded that it was a very undervalued company. This morning Yongye reported a decent quarter and proved that it's worth the wait and the results are better than my already optimistic expectations. Conservatively speaking, the buyout price should be raised to at least $11.50/share, which represents a 100% upside from the current stock price. And without the buyout deal, the company is worth more.

The company generated $188 million of cash from operations over the first 6 months of the year, that's $3.71 per share. The company expects that full-year total shipments will grow about 20% to 25% over 2012. The company is swimming in cash - currently it has $5.02/share of cash + $5.36/share of incoming cash from accounts receivable + $2.02/share of inventory on its balance sheet. That's a total of $12.40/share. The net book value is $10.54/share. In other words, if we liquidate the company right now, shareholders can get $10.54/share. It generated $3.71 per share of cash during the most recent 6 months. How much is the company worth? My new $11.50/share valuation appears to be too conservative.

The buyers group (CEO Zishen Wu, Full Alliance International Limited, MSPEA Agriculture Holding Limited, and Abax Global Capital) is still interested in buying the company. Why wouldn't they? As I wrote in my earlier article, that deal was such a steal, it makes the other buyout deals look too pricey. The original $6.60 buyout price was outdated and should be raised. For any new buyout price that is below $9.00 per share, I URGE shareholders to vote "No".

Currently, my valuation of the company is below. If the buyout deal closes, the cash proceeds will be received several months later. I conservatively estimated the closing date and present value of the proceeds at my required rate of return - 20%. In the case of shareholders rejecting the buyout deal, I added a higher risk premium to compensate for the expected higher stock volatility. But the value is there.

Yongye's special committee should negotiate a much higher price for the buyout deal. One example is the Spreadtrum Communications (SPRD) deal, in which the original buyout offer price of $28.5 was valuing the company at 14.8x P/E, and still the special committee negotiated with the buyout group and quickly raised the buyout price to $31 per share, despite near-term business deterioration. Similarly, in the Dell (DELL) deal, as I analyzed previously, CEO Michael Dell was unwillingly pushed to raise his buyout price, despite near-term business deterioration. If the Yongye special committee pushes hard enough (and they ABSOLUTELY should), the buyer group should pay a price in the $11.50 range or higher that is more fair to Yongye's shareholders.

As in most Chinese companies, the CEO is the key. I did a lot of due diligence and Yongye's CEO Zishen Wu appears to be an honest and sincere person. He appeared on TV in one of the most high-end and popular Chinese TV programs (see here) and talked about his personal life and his family. The probability of a successful closing of the buyout deal at a higher price has significantly improved given that the CEO is a high-status local celebrity - there is a potential damage to his reputation damage if shareholders object too loudly. And that's probably why initially in 2011, out of all those undervalued Chinese companies under bear raids, Morgan Stanley bet on Yongye. And I like Yongye because its management has always been responsive. I call them frequently and they have always been patient and would willingly accept shareholders' advice and recommendations. Yongye's management told me that they are working hard on negotiating the terms of the buyout deal and it is reassuring to hear.

The China Development Bank agreed to provide financing for Yongye's privatization deal. No privatization deal has ever failed when CDB agreed to provide financing.

A few takeaways: sometimes as an investor one needs faith and conviction. After thorough due diligence, you need to be sure that the management will do the right thing. And also to have the patience to endure months and months of waiting with little or no update on progress. A lot of investors lose faith along the way, and some hold on to what they believe in. That separates the good ones from the rest of the pack. And just think about the fact that while you are waiting, you are sitting on $10.54/share of net book value, mostly in cash and inventory, and the business is generating $3.71 per share of operating cash every 6 months. That makes the waiting so much more enjoyable.

The stock is been resilient even with 2 big red days in the market, I think we will see 6 soon IMO.

The Committee decision could come any day. Then the price will jump on a "Yes". Then jump again after the stockholders meeting when they vote on it. The lawsuit is the unknown variable.

Thank you do you see upside for pps in near term or will it be stagnant until the issue is resolved thanks for your input as always.

8K - On October 15, 2012, Yongye International, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the receipt of a “going private” proposal from (i) Mr. Zishen Wu, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Full Alliance International Limited, (iii) MSPEA Agriculture Holding Limited, and (iv) Abax Global Capital (Hong Kong) Limited, on behalf of funds managed and/or advised by it and its nominee entities and its and their affiliates. According to the proposal letter, an acquisition vehicle will be formed for the purpose of completing the acquisition at a purchase price of $6.60 per share of common stock in cash, subject to certain conditions, which purchase price is intended to be financed through a combination of debt to be primarily provided by third party financial institutions and equity capital to be provided by the buyer parties or their affiliates in the form of cash and/or rollover equity in the Company. The proposal letter states that the buyer parties have been in discussions with a Chinese bank which is experienced in financing going private transactions and has expressed interest in providing loans to finance the acquisition.

------------------------------------------------------------
The Board of Directors formed a committee to examine the offer and hired firms to help. They have not recommended the offer.
That's what we are waiting on.

There are lawsuits open against the Directors because $6.60 is too low. It's now a class action with a lead firm.

So the committee can do three things.
1. Accept $6.6 and go to court.
2. Reject the offer, and the current lawsuit is dropped. (It's possible more lawsuits would open because they rejected it.)
3. Ask for more money that the current lawsuits would find acceptable.

I would be okay with #1 and #3
#2 would be very bad.

Buy out offer? Could you clarify im new here bought some at 5.68. Thanks.

The buyout offer is at $6.60


resume our steady climb to $8

Good day for Yong, we should resume our steady climb to $8, book value. GLTA. It should open higher tomorrow, it held pretty steady on a red day in the markets.

YONG - the definitive agreement is due any day for the CEO's buyout. Financing was completed per the 12/31 form 13's.
Offer is for $6.60 so the typical 5% arbitrage will see $6.27

Options look busy especially on the April $6 Calls.

Per the last SC 13D/A from YANG XIANG DONG
it says

Abax HK’s commitment under the Financing Commitment Letter will terminate on the earlier of (a) March 30, 2013; (b) the date that definitive documents with respect to the Mezzanine Debt Financing become effective; and (c) the date the acquisition agreement for the Transaction is terminated. The obligation of Abax HK to provide the Mezzanine Debt Financing is subject to a number of conditions, including without limitation, the execution of mutually satisfactory definitive documents for the Mezzanine Debt Financing.

the committee should approve the offer soon and that will put it at 6, then we see if they need a shareholder vote, as it gets closer to 6.6

Nice post. Well done.
Been holding this one a while and finally sold.
I bought high and sold high.
Any yong fans have any predictions?

YONG all star

Yongye Intl. Special Committee selects independent financial advisor in connection with 'going private' proposal (YONG) 5.53 +0.02 : Co announced that the Special Committee of its Board of Directors, formed to consider certain potential transactions involving the Company, including the preliminary, non-binding proposal from a buyer group including Mr. Zishen Wu, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Full Alliance International Limited, MSPEA Agriculture Holding Limited, and Abax Global Capital (Hong Kong), to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company not currently owned by the Buyer Group in a going private transaction, has retained Houlihan Lokey as the Special Committee's independent financial advisor.

The Special Committee is evaluating and considering the Proposal as well as the Company's other alternatives. No decisions have been made by the Special Committee with respect to the Company's response to the Proposal.

This company is screwed....all those attorneys will kill them

SIA-Chart for YONG : Very Bullish and as good as it gets as angle of elevation is powerful. Besides having a superman show up, which happens when the stock goes 5% above its 100 day moving average. We also have a super cross show up which means that the 50 day moving average has broken above the 100 day moving average, which is also very bullish and means that buyers are coming in big time.

Golden Cross; supposed to be VERY bullish. Can anyone confirm?

Wow! Nice breakout. Anyone else still holding this? I saw a price target of 4.50 by at least one analyst, anyone have any other price targets? Looks to be going well over $4 or am I wrong?

YONG Textbook Bullish Forward looking event chart...shorts covering with bargain hunters loading up going into record Q2 earnings on the way....over 2X daily volume confirms reversal...All indicators turned bullish today...

I am comparing OPHI, an organics company in Charlotte, NC.

Very nice there! $YONG is a very visible company. I always see them filing something and or on earnings, in the news, etc.
