宏创控股计划以每股5.34元的价格，向宏拓实业股东发行约118.95亿股新股来支付对价。这一发行价仅 相当于交易公布前宏创控股股价的一半左右，消息一出，市场哗然，次日宏创控股股价开盘便大幅跳 水，收盘时几近跌停。 对于中小股东而言，这一交易带来了诸多不利影响。首先，股权被严重稀释。宏创控股本次发行股份数 量是当前股本总额11.36亿股的约10倍，中小股东原本在公司中的权益占比被大幅摊薄，对公司决策的 话语权进一步减弱。其次，每股收益面临下滑风险。若短期内净利润无法同步大幅增长，新增的大量股 份将拉低每股收益，直接损害中小股东的投资回报。再者，交易价格的合理性备受质疑。以相对较低的 价格发行大量股份收购资产，让人怀疑是否存在利益输送的可能，即实控人家族通过这种方式，以中小 股东利益为代价，实现旗下资产的优化与增值。 7月21日，宏创控股（002379）披露发行股份购买资产暨关联交易报告书（草案），公司计划发行股份 635亿元的价格购买山东宏拓实业有限公司（下称"宏拓实业"）100%股权。此次交易完成后，宏创控股 将转型为集电解铝、氧化铝及铝深加工于一体的全产业链企业，总资产与收入规模预计将突破千亿元， 成为全球 ...
