ZhongDe Waste Technology AG planning IPO in July 2007
Hamburg, June 14, 2007
ZhongDe Waste Technology AG, one of the leading suppliers of small- and mid-sized solid waste incinerators in China, is planning its IPO with a listing on the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. Subject to favourable capital markets conditions, the IPO is scheduled to take place in July 2007. It is therefore set to become the first indirect listing of a Chinese company on the highly regulated Prime Standard market segment of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
The company (together with its subsidiaries "ZhongDe Waste Technology Group") expects to raise approximately EUR 75 million through the transaction and intends to use the net proceeds raised in the offering primarily to finance further organic growth. One of its intended projects is to invest in a second production plant for waste incinerators in Beijing, thereby extending ZhongDe Group´s leading position in the market segment for medical incinerators and small- and mid-sized municipal solid waste incinerators in the high-growth Chinese waste management market.
ZhongDe Waste Technology Group is an established player in the Chinese waste incineration market with a strong track record of more than 170 installed incinerators and an experienced management team. Over the last three years, ZhongDe Waste Technology Group has achieved a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 76% in revenues to € 19 million in 2006 and a CAGR of 107% in net profit to € 8 million in 2006. This highly profitable business model is driven by a proven technology tailored to Chinese market requirements. Thus, the company expects to further benefit from the sustainable growth trend in the market for waste management which is driven by rising GDP levels per capita, growing population and increasing urbanization in China as well as new emerging consumer patterns.
Chen Zefeng, Founder and CEO of ZhongDe: "With the listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange we will realise a very important step in the further growth and internationalisation of ZhongDe Waste Technology Group and are excited about raising the necessary funds to take advantage of the outstanding growth opportunities in the rapidly developing environmental protection market in China. Given my serious admiration for German technology and the leadership of Germany in environmental protection, I welcome the opportunity to build long-lasting relationships with investors, business partners and the community in general."
ZhongDe Waste Technology AG is currently owned by Mr. Chen Zefeng with a majority interest of 68%, private equity investor Hao Capital China Fund with an interest of 15.5% and the remaining 16.5% is held by 4 private investors.
ZhongDe Waste Technology AG has mandated Sal Oppenheim jr. & Cie. KGaA as Global Co-ordinator and Sole Bookrunner. Sal. Oppenheim and the Bank of China International are acting as Joint Lead Managers in the offering with CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets as a Co-Lead Manager. BayernLB, comdirect Bank and DAB Bank will act as Selling Agents.
