Als Prosus en Naspers weer een update van de "shares in issue" publiceren ga ik er eens voor zitten om het fijne er van te weten. Je hebt ook nog Naspers die eigen aandelen inkoopt. Sowieso een gedrocht hoe die twee in elkaar vervlecht zitten met allerlei soort aandelen.
Van wat ik nu weet
30 juni had Prosus 1415,5 mln aandelen in issue en op 30 september 1354,2 miljoen dit klopt aardig met de aandelen Prosus die in die period zijn ingekocht zijnde 50,8 mln.
5 September kwam dit bericht
Further to the Repurchase Programme Announcements, shareholders are hereby advised that Naspers has sought and received the requisite approval of the SARB
to dispose of certain of the Prosus Shares that it holds in order to fund the repurchase of Naspers Shares, pursuant to the Repurchase Programme, through one of Naspers's wholly-owned subsidiaries. Naspers’s wholly-owned South African incorporated subsidiary may acquire up to 38 849 000 Naspers Shares such that all South African incorporated subsidiaries of Naspers hold not more than 10%, in aggregate, of the total number of issued Naspers Shares in accordance with applicable law. Naspers will seek further approvals to enable the continuation of the open-ended repurchase programme of Naspers Shares beyond the capacity it now has.
The sale of Prosus Shares to fund the subsequent repurchase of Naspers Shares will begin today, 5 September 2022, and as set out in the initial Repurchase Programme Announcement, continue to be implemented for as long as elevated levels of the trading discount to the Group's underlying net asset value persist.
Further, it is Naspers’ intention to maintain the effective economic interest of Naspers in Prosus relatively constant at 42%, the level it was at prior to the start of the Repurchase Programme. Accordingly, while the number of Prosus Shares that Naspers will sell for these purposes may fluctuate in the short-term, over time, it is expected to represent approximately 42% of the size of the ongoing repurchase of Prosus Shares by Prosus pursuant to the Repurchase Programme.
