The three investors are Secure Precision, owned by Yang Mei, Tanwan Games (9890.HK), and Shengqu Technology Korean, a unit of Century Huatong (002602.SZ). The new shares will account for about 3.93% of the company’s enlarged share capital upon completion.

The company’s shares opened higher on Tuesday and were trading at HK$0.275 by the midday break, up 5.8%. The stock is down more than 29% so far this year.
