The stock price is interpreted to be soaring due to the news that private equity fund Jericho Partners, which has a special relationship with Chairman Choi and Chairman Choi Chang-gyu of Yeongpung Precision, is conducting a public tender offer for Yeongpung Precision shares.


Before the market opened that day, Jericho Partners announced that it would publicly tender 3,937,500 shares of Yeongpung Precision from that day until the 21st. This represents 25% of the total issued shares, and the public tender offer price was set at 30,000 KRW.
