Polyplex Corporation disclosed on August 6, 2026, that AGPH (Thailand) Ltd. successfully acquired 162,812,291 ordinary shares of its 51%-owned subsidiary, Polyplex (Thailand) Public Company Ltd. (PTL), through a tender offer that closed on August 5, 2026. The acquired shares constitute 18.09% of PTL’s total paid-up share capital and voting rights. This development marks a significant shift in the ownership structure of the Thai subsidiary, as AGPH (Thailand), a wholly owned subsidiary of AGP Holdco Limited based in the UAE, increases its direct stake in the entity.
The disclosure was made under Regulation 30 of the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements) Regulations, 2015. Polyplex Corporation had previously informed the exchanges on June 22, 2026, about AGPH’s intention to make a tender offer for all ordinary shares of PTL. In a subsequent disclosure dated July 1, 2026, the company stated that its Board of Directors resolved not to participate in the tender offer regarding its own shareholding in PTL. On August 6, 2026, the company received the 'Report on the Result of the Securities Acquisition' in Form 256-2 from the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand.
Tender Offer Details
AGPH (Thailand) Ltd. initiated the tender offer to acquire 100% of the outstanding ordinary shares of PTL, totaling 900,000,000 shares. However, only a portion of these shares were tendered by shareholders. The final result shows that 162,812,291 ordinary shares were both tendered and acquired by the offeror. No preferred shares or convertible securities were involved in the transaction.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Total Shares Offered | 900,000,000 Ordinary Shares |
| Shares Tendered & Acquired | 162,812,291 Ordinary Shares |
| Percentage of Paid-Up Capital | 18.09% |
| Preferred Shares Involved | None |
| Convertible Securities Involved | None |
Following the acquisition, AGPH (Thailand) Ltd. holds 162,812,291 ordinary shares in PTL. This holding represents 18.09% of the total outstanding shares and voting rights of the business. The report confirms that no other persons in the same group as the offeror, related parties under Section 258, or other entities held additional securities in PTL as part of this specific acquisition block.
What the Numbers Show
The tender offer resulted in a partial acquisition rather than a full takeover. While AGPH (Thailand) aimed to acquire 100% of PTL’s equity by offering to buy 900,000,000 shares, it secured only 18.09% of the total share capital. This indicates that approximately 81.91% of the shares were not tendered by existing shareholders who chose to retain their holdings. For Polyplex Corporation, which retains its 51% stake, this means AGPH (Thailand) has entered as a new minority shareholder with a nearly 18% position, altering the minority interest composition of the subsidiary without affecting the parent company’s controlling interest.
