增发配股

    地产公司现金流紧张，雅居乐周五停止供股融资计划后，公司两只海外美元债价格也迅速下跌。请看本报昨日的报道：

    Domestic real estate developer Agile Property Holdings Ltd. shelved plans Friday for a HK$2.75 billion (US$348 million) rights issue, sending its bonds tumbling in a sign of how property companies are struggling to raise cash amid a widespread housing downturn.

    The firm had planned to use the cash from the sale of new shares to finance existing debt as well as for working capital. Hong Kong-listed Agile said it would continue talks with banks on fundraising options.

    The scrapped share sale comes as China’s real estate sector is grappling with five months of falling prices and slumping sales amid a ballooning inventory of new homes and a sluggish economy.

    报道中的rights issue就是“增发配股”，即上市公司以折扣价向持股股东按比例配售新股。
