珠海中富警告將違約 無力償還鉅額債券
Shenzhen-listed Zhuhai Zhongfu Enterprises has warned it won't be able to fully repay a 590m yuan ($95m) bond, which comes due on May 28.
在深圳上市的珠海中富實業股份有限公司（Zhuhai Zhongfu Enterprises，簡稱“珠海中富”）警告稱，將無力償還5月28日到期的5.9億元人民幣（合9500萬美元）的債券。The company, which makes bottles for Coca-Cola Co and PepsiCo in China, said it can only repay 148m ($23.9m) of the principal amount, but says it plans to pay all the 31.15m yuan of interest, the company said in a statement to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange on Monday, Bloomberg reported.
據彭博社(Bloomberg)報道，珠海中富週一在深交所公告稱，該公司只能償還本金中的1.48億元人民幣，但表示打算償還全部3115萬元人民幣的利息。該公司在中國爲可口可樂(Coca-Cola)和百事可樂(PepsiCo)生產飲料瓶。
Trading in the bottler's shares were suspended at the end of April, but the stock had still risen 125.7 per cent in the year to that point. In other words, it had been outpacing its own benchmark up until that point, despite the looming likelihood of defaulting on its debt. The Shenzhen Composite has doubled in value this year.
4月底，珠海中富的股票被停牌，不過今年截至當時，該公司的股價仍上漲了125.7%。換言之，儘管可能即將發生債務違約，但該公司股價今年仍跑贏了深成指，而深成指今年至今已翻了一番。
Should it miss Thursday's payment, Zhuhai Zhongfu will join a small but growing list of Chinese companies to have defaulted on their debt. Last month, Baoding Tianwei Group, a power-transformer maker, became the first state-owned company to default on its domestic debt. Cloud Live Technology Group defaulted on its domestic debt last month, but it is a private-sector company, as is Shanghai Chaori Solar Energy Science & Technology, which defaulted on its debt payments last year.
如果週四不能償還全部本金，珠海中富將進入一個數量日益增多的中國違約企業名單。上月，變壓器生產商保定天威集團(Baoding Tianwei Group)成爲中國首家債務違約的國有企業。上月違約的還有中科雲網(Cloud Live Technology Group)，但該公司跟去年違約的上海的超日太陽(Shanghai Chaori Solar Energy Science & Technology)一樣，是一家民營企業。Kaisa Group became the first Chinese developer to default in the offshore market, missing a payment on its US currency debt.
佳兆業(Kaisa Group)是中國境內首家違約的地產開發商，違約對象是一筆美元債務。
