📊 Stocks in this story · tap for live chart & discussion

Yinson Holdings shares fell as much as 4.4% to RM2.16 on Tuesday before recovering to around RM2.21 by mid-afternoon, after the company said it has not accepted a RM2.50-a-share privatisation offer from a consortium led by MISC and its own founders. This is an intraday price — Bursa’s afternoon session was still open as this was written.

  • Yinson says it has not accepted the RM2.50-a-share takeover — a director’s signature on the proposal letter was an inadvertent error (Bursa filing, 10 Nov 2026).
  • The offer, led by MISC and Yinson’s founders, prices the stock 16.28% above its RM2.15 close on 28 Aug, the day before the talks were first disclosed (Yinson filing, via The Star, 6 Nov 2026).
  • Yinson’s board has until 5pm on 4 December to tell the offerors whether it intends to recommend the deal (Bursa filing, 10 Nov 2026).

“We’re still in discussion, which we have announced. Whether we will sign or not, we don’t know as well. Because we are still in talks.”
— Lim Chern Yuan, Group CEO, Yinson Holdings, speaking to The Edge Malaysia, October 2026

The consortium — My Offshore Holdings, MISC OBU Holdings, Yinson Legacy and Kwasa Layar — wants to take Yinson private under a Section 366 scheme of arrangement. Today’s announcement is Yinson’s own clarification that the board has not agreed to it, after reports suggested otherwise. It is the second family-linked Bursa takeover bid in a month, after United Malacca’s RM6.10-a-share offer. Track the stock live on the Bursa heat list.
