MACAO, CHINA -- Nam Tai Electronics will attempt to privatize its Hong Kong Stock Exchange-listed subsidiary for about $43 million in cash.

Nam Tai, the world's 17th largest EMS comnpany, has a 74.9% stake in the subsidiary, Nam Tai Electronic & Electrical Products Ltd.

The offer is contingent of at least 90% acceptance of outstanding (non Nam Tai-owned) shares. It is expected that the results will be known and released in April.
