Executive Summary
The equity transfer of Shanghai Schering-Plough's 45 percent has gone into the final stages of price quotation. According to sources at share-owner Shanghai Pharmaceutical (Group) which is selling its stake, the quotation system still maintains its list price of 66.33 million yuan. Except for original shareholder Schering-Plough China, no other company has submitted application of acceptance; thus, there will be no surprises if Schering-Plough China takes over Shanghai Schering-Plough. So far the equity transaction has started and will be completed at the beginning of July. Shanghai Schering-Plough will then become a wholly-owned subsidiary of a foreign pharmaceutical firm.
