Yinson Holdings Bhd clarified that it is not in discussions for a buyout, while confirming its major shareholder, Yinson Legacy Sdn Bhd (YLSB), is in talks regarding potential corporate proposals involving their shareholding. Reports suggest discussions involve Stonepeak Partners and government-linked pension funds, potentially valuing the company at RM8 billion.
Yinson Holdings Bhd said there is currently no conclusive indication that the discussions will give rise to a corporate proposal involving the group. PETALING JAYA: Yinson Holdings Bhd clarified today that it was not engaging any third party over a potential buyout.
However, it confirmed that the company’s major shareholder, Yinson Legacy Sdn Bhd , is in discussions with various parties in relation to potential corporate proposals. YLSB is the investment vehicle of its founder and group executive chairman Lim Han Weng and his family. The company had a 20.75% stake in the energy infrastructure group as of May 8, 2025, according to its latest annual report. In an exchange filing today, Yinson said it was advised by Lim that YLSB is in discussions with various parties in relation to potential corporate proposals concerning their shareholding in the group. “There is currently no conclusive indication that such discussions will give rise to a corporate proposal involving Yinson,” it added. Yesterday, Bloomberg reported that discussions involving the Lim family, infrastructure-focussed investment firm Stonepeak Partners, and government-linked pension funds are said to be at “an advanced stage”. The deal, which could value the company at about RM8 billion, may be announced in the next couple of weeks, the report said, quoting sources. The parties involved aim to buy out the company via a scheme of arrangement, also known as court-approved agreement, as that improves the chances of a deal going through, the report stated. The Lim family has a 27.7% stake in Yinson as of end-February while EPF and Retirement Fund Inc hold 17.1% and 7%, respectively. In June last year, Bloomberg reported that New York-based Stonepeak was teaming up with the Lim family for a buyout of Yinson. Then, Yinson also denied being in discussions with any third party for a buyout exercise.
