This is a great thing, just needs to be done more. They buy shares for $80 and issue fewer shares at $105. Love it!

So the note holder can convert at expiration date but only to a max of 161$? If the stock is 200, they still only get 161$?

@@maxjames00077 The interest is based on the bond value and the cap caps the interest Alibaba pays. So if the price is $200/share and I hold a bond worth 200 shares, Alibaba still only pays me $161*0.5%*200 shares. The bondholder almost always converts the bond since they get 200 shares valued at $200/share.

They did it to get around cash leaving China. They raised the 5 billion outside of China to buy back ADR slips outside of China. Smart move by Baba and JD.

I think the $5bil is to make sure that they will not over exposed themselves if Baba share price rallied before they even buy back all the shares at $80/share. It is a prudent move, in my opinion.

Sharp! Definitely would be a problem if the price would have rallied too much before they could buy back.

its like a long term call option, if you get the "strike" price you convert the bonds with a profit (at least 30%), else you get your principal back and your cost was inflation (because 0.5% annually means losing some % to inflation, optimistically inflation will be 3% over the next couple years, so your cost if 2.5% annually)

As a BABA shareholder, I'm confused by the recent $5 billion convertible bond issuance. Here are my questions: 1. Why did BABA issue a $4 billion dividend simultaneously if using mainland money for buybacks is challenging? Could the dividend have been used for share buybacks instead? 2. Why wait for the August Hong Kong IPO when BABA can use RMB buybacks then?

There might be some misunderstanding in the comment section about the conversion, the options cap, and what it means for dilution. The conversion is around 9 shares per $1,000 in notes, or $105 per share. This conversion is fixed, which means that even if the price goes to $161, Alibaba still has to give the note holders 9 shares for their $1,000, which is a loss of $56 per share for Alibaba if it still has to buy the shares in the open market at $161. As they stated that they will only buy 15 million shares now, while in a worst-case scenario, it will need 48 million shares (net convertible proceeds / $105), there is a dilution exposure of 33 million shares multiplied by $56 per share, or $1.8 billion. Now, in case the price goes to $162, Alibaba agreed with the note holders that, from there on, it has the right to buy back the shares it owes for $161, which is the option call cap that cancels out all further upside for the note holders. The cap didn't come cheap, with a $500 million cost. Bottom line, $56 per share is the maximum profit for the note holders (+ interests) and the maximum exposure for Alibaba for every share they didn't buy when $161 is reached. If they choose to issue new shares, it will lower earnings per share, eventually resulting in the same dilution. Alibaba is making a two-step forward and one-step backward move, and with supposedly + $60 billion in net assets, it's a move I simply don't understand.

Fgos, the market wasn't negative on the move, so clearly I'm wrong, but I don't find the right answers, nobody is showing the full picture. For example, in the tweet of thexcapitalist, you don't park the cash if you expect the stock to go up, that doesn't make sense. You would only park it if you expect the shares to go down or if you actually need the money for other things. Anyway, If anybody cares to educate me, I'd love to learn. @Mr Keng, keep up the good work, I really enjoy your videos.

@@beatendownstocks They buy the shares back at 80$ and got paid 105$ for them. Of course they wouldn't take this deal if they don't profit from it. It's like this: baba now got 4,5 bn and pay only 0,5% interest ( so almost free money). but the underlying notes got sold for 105$ per share. meaning that: 1- If the stock is below 105 at expiration date, they get their principal back + interest. 2- If the stock is between 105 and 161, they convert to stock. 3- If the stock is above 161, the will only get 161, which is the cap. In any of these 3 scenarios baba wins, If the stock is at 100$ a share in 2031, we basically got a loan for 0,5% yearly, thats free money man which they invest better. if the share is between 105 and 161, we bought back shares at 80 (which is what baba paid for them this week) and got 105$ for them.. (this is hard to understand but if the stock hits 106, the note holder makes 1$ because they paid 105. But right now the stock is 80... so Alibaba bought the stock at 80 and gives a share back at 106, which means buy back a share low and dilute a share higher (which is what u want a company to do) (remember diluting a share is free and because we got paid 105$ per share out profit is 25$ per share). In scenario 3 we make even more profit. same principle but with more money because the note holder only gets 161 and we keep the 105 - 80 profit (25) + everything above 161 as well.

They issued 5b is already one of the largest in Asia, I guess they prefer the CB to be oversubscribed then under subscribed which will be bad for sentiments on its shares.

Can they buyback shares in hk via the stock connect in september?

So if they use the 5 billion to buy back shares then the stock rises 30 percent they have to issue shares seems like a good deal no?

it is positive....no need to worry

Come on. BABA's primary business is in China. They can't pull out billions of dollars from China overseas, as the Chinese government regulates US dollar inventory for financial stability. This applies to all Chinese companies. I thought you should know this already. The convertible bond move was smart and actually the bond holders are stuck with their money into this financial instrument, unless the share price increase substantially to the strike price of the bond term.

I prefer the new management approach to unlocking value with buybacks instead of spinoffs. Their logistics and cloud have strong synergy with core

Love your vid bro… just one complaint, Can you Press the præsentation button at the bottom of the powerpoint in the next video? But great info keep it up💪

I currently own a lot of baba shares, and I am happy they issue CB cos their strike piece is higher than mine.. mine is around $95.

Baba shareholders all forget that there only 1 shareholder in BABA under the special company charter which is jack ma, rest are all bondholders.

thanks for the detailed analysis.

Can Chinese companies use RMB to pay back debt in other currencies?

If I am not wrong Alibaba is already paying a 1.3% yield on equity which is higher than the coupon rate. If you want to take a bet, equity is more attractive than the bond given the price had fallen below HKD 73. I see no cow sense unless you want the safety of higher hierarchy of claim. Then again if you find the company in risk of a default, a 0.5% coupon doesn’t compensate the risk taken. A fair range for pure vanilla Chinese issue bond for 7 years should be around 7-9% annually minimum. 2c worth, dyodd 🙏. Lone Wolf Investor.

So how and where to buy the CB?

Rethink it. The CB lenders (major institutions) have a major interest in the stock price being over 160. Are they allowed to promote the stock if they are holders?

As i'm understanding it they have no interest in the stock being over 161$, since that's where the cap is. If the stock is below 105 at expiration date, they get their principal back + interest. If the stock is between 105 and 161, they convert to stock. If the stock is above 161, the will only get 161, which is the cap

From my observation and historical market pattern, there might be a bit of turbulence in the market coming up, but here's the deal: Trying to guess what's going to happen next is less important than spreading your bets when trading and thinking long term. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady...managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 732k in the space of a few months... I'm especially grateful to Linda Wilburn, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

Alibaba has enough cash, but can only repurchase shares to a limited extend due to chinese currency restrictions.. money can‘t simply leave the country. Hence, such USD denominated bonds can help Baba get the USD it needs to increase buybacks.

did you see how much share they bought back in a day with this CB?

The interest being so high is very bullish. This bond reduces the risk in an investment that many institutions were undecided on because of political risk. The bond holders still get the upside with much less risk of being wiped out by some black swan event. I would have bought the bonds myself if I had access.

The bond is more attractive than owning the share
