With this acquisition, the Acquirer - comprising MLCF, Maple Leaf Capital Limited (MLCL), and the Chief Executive Officer of MLCL is holding a massive 34,261,001 voting shares in the target company, which amounts to a 15.08% aggregate shareholding in the share capital of PIOC.

The Acquirer's increased shareholding in the target company is expected to give them a greater say in key decision-making processes, as well as provide them with a valuable opportunity to expand their operations and reach in the industry.

This bold move by MLCF has left industry insiders in a frenzy, with many eagerly speculating about the potential implications of this acquisition.

Despite the excitement surrounding this acquisition, many are also closely watching the potential implications for Pioneer Cement Limited and its shareholders, as the company's future now rests in the hands of the Acquirer.
