- Scheme of arrangement fully implemented
- Shareholders paid $0.443 per share
- All shares transferred to Shenghe Resources
- Delisting application to be submitted shortly
- No details yet on Shenghe’s post-acquisition plans
Completion of the Scheme
Peak Rare Earths Limited (ASX, PEK) has reached a major milestone with the formal implementation of its acquisition by Shenghe Resources (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. The scheme of arrangement, which was announced earlier this year, has now been executed in full. All Peak shares not previously held by Shenghe have been transferred, marking the end of Peak’s independent listing on the ASX.
Shareholder Consideration and Payment
Shareholders recorded on the Peak register as of 7, 00pm Sydney time on 23 September 2025 have received payment of $0.443 per share. This payment reflects the agreed consideration under the terms of the scheme and represents the immediate financial return for investors who held Peak shares prior to the acquisition.
Implications of Delisting
Following the completion of the acquisition, Peak Rare Earths will soon be removed from the official ASX listing. The company has indicated that an application for delisting will be lodged shortly. This move effectively ends Peak’s public trading status and integrates its operations under Shenghe’s broader corporate umbrella. For investors, this means the loss of a publicly traded vehicle for exposure to Peak’s rare earths assets.
Strategic Outlook and Market Impact
While the acquisition consolidates Shenghe’s position in the rare earths sector, details on the strategic direction or operational changes post-acquisition remain undisclosed. Market watchers will be keen to see how Shenghe leverages Peak’s assets and expertise, especially given the growing global demand for rare earth elements critical to technology and clean energy industries.
Looking Ahead
The completion of this deal signals a notable shift in the rare earths mining landscape, with Shenghe expanding its footprint. However, the lack of clarity on integration plans leaves room for speculation about future developments and potential impacts on supply chains and market dynamics.
Bottom Line?
As Peak Rare Earths exits the ASX, all eyes turn to Shenghe’s next moves in the rare earths sector.
Questions in the middle?
- What are Shenghe’s strategic plans for Peak’s assets post-acquisition?
- When exactly will Peak be delisted from the ASX, and what are the implications for remaining shareholders?
- How will this acquisition affect rare earths supply and pricing in the near term?
