In general, PAK creates NewCo's from SOE's and then offer for sale assets and current liabilities (defined generally as the last three months of unpaid accounts payable and the last year of unpaid VAT) of SOEs.
Investors only bid on the assets - and only a few of the current liabilities – of the SOE. Not the SOE itself. In this document, “NEWCO” refers to the assets and current liabilities of the SOE being sold by PAK.

PAK sometimes breaks SOEs into several smaller NEW COs. Please make sure you verify that you make a bid for the NEWCO that has the assets you are interested in. The Information Memorandum (see below) contains a detailed description of all assets belonging to each NEWCO.
KAP also makes sales of SOE assets in liquidation, referred as Assets Sale through liquidation. In this case NewCo is not offered for the sale (assets together with limited liabilities) but only a certain asset of the SOE.
KAP launches waves of privatizations on a regular basis and publishes announcements on the official web site of the Agency, local daily newspapers, national television, sends e-mail notifying the parties of interest and to all registered potential investors in its database. Also, in a certain cases the publications are made in the international press.
