LONDON (Alliance News) - Red Rock Resources PLC on Tuesday said Australian associate Resource Star Ltd has terminated its agreement to acquire a 60% stake in Sugar Dragon Ltd and will keep its holding in the company at 15%.
Resource Star struck a deal to buy 60% of Sugar Dragon, which owns a 72.5% stake in Okmno Asia, which itself holds a four-year licence to produce and distribute confectionary in China branded under the Candy Crush name. Candy Crush is a highly popular mobile game.
Resource Star has acquired a 15% stake in Sugar Dragon but has now terminated its plan to raise this to 60% this due to the indirect holding structure of Sugar Dragon and concerns Resource Star had about achieving the optimal value of the business with that model in place.
Red Rock shares were trading flat at 0.06 pence on Tuesday.
