Alibaba Pictures seeks US$1.6b for growth

ALIBABA Pictures, the e-commerce’s film and entertainment unit, yesterday said it plans to raise HK$12.1 billion (US$1.6 billion) through a private placement to tap investment opportunities in the entertainment sector.

It plans to sell about 4.2 billion shares at HK$2.90 apiece to at least six independent institutional or individual investors, a 20 percent discount from its last trading price on Monday, said a stock exchange filing.

The proceeds will be used to replenish its working capital and to finance potential acquisition opportunities in the future.
