(Manila).- South Korean-backed casino operator cites prevailing market conditions for delay in public debut.
Hann Holdings Inc., the South Korean-led investment firm behind the Hann Casino Resort in Clark Freeport Zone, Pampanga, has officially postponed its planned ₱13-billion initial public offering (IPO).
A source familiar with the matter confirmed to the Inquirer that the company had submitted formal notices to both the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) regarding the deferment. The move aligns with an earlier Bloomberg report citing “prevailing market conditions” as the reason for the delay.
The IPO was originally scheduled to run from September 9 to 15, with a planned listing on the main board of the PSE on September 23. According to Hann’s preliminary prospectus, the offering included 500 million primary shares priced at ₱23.60 each, with an overallotment option of up to 50 million shares to be sold by existing shareholder Hann Group Holdings WLL.
Despite initial confidence and resilience amid broader weakness in the country’s land-based gaming sector, Hann has opted for caution as investor sentiment remains affected by global market volatility, geopolitical tensions, and ongoing trade uncertainties.
Hann Philippines currently operates an 11-hectare integrated resort in Pampanga, which includes Central Luzon’s first five-star luxury hotel, the Clark Marriott, as well as the country’s first Swissôtel.
So far this year, the Philippine stock market has seen just one IPO—Top Line Business Development Corp., a Cebu-based fuel retailer, which went public in February.
