Sunway Energy has approved a tender offer from the former CEO's son to acquire a majority stake, raising questions given the company's negative net worth.

What Happened

Tender Offer: Sunway Energy has announced that its review committee has approved a tender offer from Hu Zheng-jie, son of former general manager Hu Hui-sen, to acquire a 72.82% stake at NT$0.05 per share.

Market Skepticism: The move has sparked significant market debate, as Sunway Energy was previously delisted due to negative net worth, rendering the shares effectively worthless.

Risk Disclosure: The company has advised shareholders to carefully evaluate their individual financial and tax situations, emphasizing that they must bear the risks associated with participating or declining the tender offer.

Strategic Context: Given the family connection and the company's delisted status, the underlying motives for this NT$10 million acquisition remain a subject of intense speculation.
