HEG Ltd Completes Demerger, Shares Adjust to Reflect Business Separation
HEG Ltd underwent a demerger on September 7, 2026, separating its graphite electrode business into a new entity, HEG Graphite Limited, while the existing company was renamed HEG Advanced Materials Limited. Shareholders received one share in HEG Graphite for every share held in HEG Ltd. The apparent 63-65% drop in HEG's share price reflects this restructuring adjustment rather than a loss in value. HEG Graphite is expected to list separately by October 2026, with management changes announced for the new entity.
