This 6-K filing finalizes the terms for the previously announced secondary offering by major shareholder Sixth Street Partners. The offering size has been increased from 9 million to 12 million ADRs, and the price has been set at US$61.90 per ADR, resulting in a total transaction value of approximately $742.8 million. This significant sale by a major institutional investor, representing a substantial portion of the company's market capitalization, could create a notable overhang on the stock due to the large volume of shares entering the market. While the company itself is not raising capital, the disposition by a key shareholder signals a reduction in their stake.
