广州国资“硬刚”武汉国资!良品铺子股权之争闹上法庭

Core Viewpoint - The control dispute over Liangpin Shop (603719) has escalated, with a lawsuit filed by Guangzhou Light Industry against Ningbo Hanyi regarding a share transfer dispute involving an amount of 996 million yuan [2][6]. Group 1: Background of the Dispute - The dispute originated from an agreement signed in May 2023, where Ningbo Hanyi planned to transfer part of its shares in Liangpin Shop to Guangzhou Light Industry to resolve its debts [4]. - The agreement included terms for due diligence, investment arrangements, and a right of first refusal for Guangzhou Light Industry, with a share price set at 12.42 yuan per share or the average price over the preceding trading days multiplied by 1.05, whichever is lower [4]. Group 2: Legal Actions and Claims - Ningbo Hanyi did not sign the share transfer agreement with Guangzhou Light Industry and instead announced a transfer of control to Changjiang Guomao, a state-owned enterprise in Wuhan, leading to the lawsuit from Guangzhou Light Industry [5]. - Guangzhou Light Industry filed a lawsuit on July 14, seeking three main claims: enforcement of the original agreement, payment of a breach of contract penalty of 5 million yuan, and coverage of legal fees, totaling approximately 996 million yuan [6][8]. Group 3: Current Status and Implications - The lawsuit has resulted in the freezing of 79.76 million shares held by Ningbo Hanyi, which constitutes 56.46% of its holdings and 19.89% of Liangpin Shop's total shares, effectively pausing the share transfer to Changjiang Guomao [6][8]. - With the frozen shares, Ningbo Hanyi's remaining shares are insufficient to proceed with the planned transfer, creating uncertainty regarding the control transfer to Changjiang Guomao [8].
