Tencent to sell $3bn of shares in Singaporean gaming company Sea Ltd
腾讯减持新加坡游戏公司Sea股份
Tencent will sell more than $3bn worth of its shares in the Singaporean gaming and ecommerce group Sea Ltd, less than a month after it sold down its stake in JD.com, the Chinese ecommerce business.
腾讯(Tencent)将减持新加坡游戏和电商集团Sea Ltd逾30亿美元股份。不到一个月前,腾讯刚刚减持中国电商集团京东(JD.com)股份。
China’s most valuable tech company said that once the transaction completes, its equity interest in Sea will fall from 21.3 per cent to 18.7 per cent. The shares being sold were worth about $3.2bn at the closing price on Tuesday.
这家中国最具价值的科技公司表示,一旦交易完成,腾讯于Sea的股权将从21.3%减少至18.7%。按周二的收盘价计算,所售股份价值约32亿美元。
In a statement, it said it would retain the “substantial majority” of its equity in Sea “for the long term” and would sell no more shares for the next six months. It gave no reason for the sale, but said the proceeds would “fund other investments and social initiatives”.
腾讯在一份声明中表示,该公司拟“长期”维持其于Sea的“绝大部分”股权,并在未来六个月内不再进一步出售股份。腾讯没有说明减持原因,但表示出售所得将“提供资源以支持其他投资及社会责任项目”。
