Applied Intl unit sells Group Sense shrs

HONG KONG, May 27 (Reuters) - Applied International Holdings Ltd (0519.HK) said its
wholly-owned unit Batimate Ltd had sold 197.73 million shares in Group Sense (International) Ltd
for HK$122.59 million to Nam Tai Electronics Inc (NTAIF - news).

Net proceeds of about HK$121.8 million are due to be used as working capital, Applied said in a
statement on Wednesday.

The shares sold represent about 19.7 percent of Group Sense's issued share capital and the price
was equivalent to HK$0.62 per share, the closing price of Group Sense on Tuesday.

Applied International said the sale would lead to a surplus of about HK$51.8 million over the
book cost of Baltimate's interest in Group Sense.

''While the directors continue to have a positive view of the future of Group Sense, in view of the
surplus, the directors believe that the disposal represents a good opportunity to dispose of such
interests,'' it said.

The Applied Group will continue to hold three million shares in Group Sense for investment
purposes.

PLus, they got a CFO and another accountant. Noticed that
the bid had dropped to 1.875 even tho the share price had risen.
Go figure. ANy comments?
