Epistar and Lextar announced that they are establishing a new holding company through share swapping with the aim to integrate resources and leverage their expertise to push developments of novel LED technologies including Micro LED and Mini LED. Once the new company ENNOSTAR is listed, Epistar and Lextar will be delisted and become subsidiaries of ENNOSTAR.
The case passed the review of the Taiwan Fair Trading Commission and was approved by the Taiwan Stock Exchange earlier this month. However, as both Epistar and Lextar own subsidiaries in China, they also have to pass the review procedures in China. Since the Chinese authorities has required more documents, the review procedures did not pass as scheduled. Therefore, the new shares conversion base data and the listing date of ENNOSTAR is set on January 6, 2021.
Epistar reported that the reschedule will not affect its plan of Mini LED product mass production. The company will also keep its target to achieve 85% yield by the fourth season of 2020.
