ACE9696 Harakah Daily is dated 18 Sept 2023. That means it is old news and factored in the BPLANT share now at RM1.46.

@ soon9913, usually UMW gives dividend in the February Quarter 4 results. I think by that time is under the MGO late stage already. Unlikely they will give dividend in Nov 2023 quarter report.

One worrying thing is that Bousted use the same tactic by Najib's IMDB by using taxpayers' money.

Another 6 more rounds (2 weeks each round) of waiting till 29 December 2023.

Boustead needs RM800 million and another RM1.7 billion to redeem their Islamic Middle Term Notes at year end. October, November and December (another 3 more months) of waiting.

October 2023 already. At this point it is Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA). Another 1 and a half month to waot to have an EGM (16 Nov 2023) to acquire UMW from shareholders of Sime Darby. Be patient.

Sime Darby announced that they will be having an AGM to seek share holders approval for taking over UMW.

MGO of RM1.53 by Chinhin. Now Ajiya RM1.54. Who wants do buy?

Every two weeks, they keep on delaying, until players get fed up, and sell cheap to KLK. Is it for a maximum of 8 weeks delay?

On behalf of the Board, RHB Investment Bank wishes to announce that the Company has entered into a second letter of agreement with BHB and LTAT to agree for the Cut-Off Date to be 6 October 2023 or such other date as may be agreed in writing between KLK, BHB and LTAT.

Bplant has moved up. UMW has not moved at all. Still got time to do bargain hunting.

Sime Darby EGM is on 16 Nov 2023. Shareholders will sure to pass the takeover proposal. Sime registrar is Tricor Sdn Bhd.

Anything don't understand, just call the registrar 03-78490777. I am also holding UMW to be acquired by Sime Darby at RM5.00. Now still standing (not moving) at RM4.77 with high trading volume (buy and sell themselves by Sime Darby).

@atk3nthiew, that means the ex-date is 21 days after KLK issues an unconditional general offer. Just hold on to the shares. KLK registrar is Symphony Share Registrar Sdn Bhd.

@seeking, If less than 100% acceptance, another week will be given. Referring back to OldTown Berhad, it reaches almost 100%. Every week, KLK will announce the percentage of acceptance until the 3 or 4 weeks. If still do not achive 90%, I also don't know. I am also learning new things.

@taitamau, Pak Mat is convinced that this takeover can be carry out by Boustead Holdings Berhad themselves without troubing him.

@ACE9696, saya cuma berharap segala urusan pengambilalihan berjalan dengan sempuna dari mula sehingga akhir. Ini pengalaman baharu bagi saya.

One troubling matter is why KLK does not need an EGM to approve the purchase of Bplant in order that the STRATEGIC COLLABORATION AGREEMENT (SCA) becomes unconditional. MBSB needs an EGM to acquire MIDF and SIME needs an EGM to acquire UMW.

The share price of Bplant will stay Queue at RM1.55. It won't go above RM1.55.

Last thing is to receive the money shareholders sold Bplant to KLK (within 10 days from 14 Nov 2023).

KLK must have at least 90% of acceptance by 14 Nov 2023 (another 21 days).

If follow the privatization of Oldtown, the letter of offer will be issued within 21 days from 25 Sept 2023 (notice of offer in KLK announcement).

But why is the Bplant share price going down and not heading to 1.54/1.55?

Is it that those who hold the Bplant until 22 Sept 2023 (before 5 pm) will be sent offer letter of RM1.55?

Is 22 Sept 2023 (Friday) the ex-date?

I think hhhiii123 typed wrongly. The 5.79 should be 4.79 (UMW price). The 5.81 should be 4.81 (UMW price).

The takeover offer price is RM5.00 per UMW share. At this moment, UMW is trading at an average price of RM4.77.

AMBANK is representing UMW while CIMB is representing SIME in the process of SIME taking over UMW.

From Johnzhang:
Some key point extracted from KLK's announcements to clear the confusion post by some i3 members in this forum:

(1) On the unconditional date of the Proposed Acquisition, a mandatory GO (the proposed offer) to acquire all the remaining BPlant Shares not already owned by KLK/BHB/LTAT (known as Joint Offeror).

(2) The Proposed Offer will not be conditional upon any minimum level of valid acceptances of the Offer Shares as the Joint Offerors will hold more than 50% of the voting shares of BPlant upon completion of the Proposed Acquisition.

(3) All the Offer Shares tendered by the shareholders of BPlant will be taken up by the Company.

(4) Assuming the Company receives full acceptances under the Proposed Offer resulting in BPlant becoming a 65.0%-owned subsidiary of KLK.

(5) The Proposed Acquisition and Proposed Offer are subject to the following approval being obtained:
(i) the shareholders of BHB for the Proposed Acquisition and Proposed Offer at an
extraordinary general meeting to be convened; and
(ii) any other relevant authorities and/or parties, if required.
(6) For the avoidance of doubt, the Proposed Strategic Collaboration is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company
(7) The completion of the sale and purchase of the Sale Shares is conditional upon the approval of the shareholders of BHB in a general meeting for the Proposed Acquisition and Proposed Offer, being fulfilled, waived or completed no earlier than 15 calendar days after the date of the SCA, or such other later date as may be agreed between the parties to the SCA in writing.
@Johnzhang:
Does KLK has to have an EGM other than BHB? Sime Darby has to convene an EGM for it to acquire UMW.

From Calvintaneng:
Don't need to do anything at all.

Just hold till they take over your shares and bank in CASH to your Bank Account.
=============================
@Calvintaneng
"They" is it the "registrar of KLK (Symphony Sdn Bhd)"?

Agree.

Rough Estimate of the Time Taken to Complete the Whole Process of Sime Darby Privatizing UMW (Revised)
24.08.2023 –Sime Darby announced that it will take over UMW.
16.11.2023 – EGM
27.11.2023 – Notice of conditional voluntary take-over offer from Sime Darby after EGM.
06.12.2023 – Offer document (RM5.00 per lot) will be posted to UMW shareholders.
06.01.2024 – UMW shareholders have to sign and agree to take the offer of RM5.00 and send back to Sime Darby (Registrar – Tricor Investor & Issuing House Services Sdn Bhd).

06.01.2024 – Sime Darby must get at least 90% acceptance within 3 weeks to 1 month.
06.02.2024 – UMW shareholders to get cash via CDS registered bank account for the UMW shares sold to Sime Darby.

Why the selloff?

KUALA LUMPUR KEPONG BERHAD
On behalf of the Board, RHB Investment Bank wishes to announce that the Company has entered into a letter of agreement with BHB and LTAT to agree for the Cut-Off Date to be 22 September 2023.
All the other provisions contained in the SCA shall remain unchanged and be in full force and effect.

How long I have to wait until the registrar of KLK (Symphony Share Registrar Sdn Bhd) take our Bplant shares and bank into our account the money?

@ Dear Calvintaneng, now that rohank71 said an EGM is not needed. Then, what is next? I have been holding the Bplant shares, everyday see RM1.50/RM1.51 for so long already. rohank71 said the MGO process can begin already but how more longer I have to wait?

Why nothing has started regarding the take over of UMW other than the some trade on UMW shares? So different from privatization of OLDTOWN (full of questions and answers). EGM date also not yet announced.

Tohank71: Tomorrow (9 Sep 2023) is BHBs EGM to vote for this deal with KLK.
Will minorities of BHB reject the offer? LTAT is just 1 vote vs the many minorities who are unhappy with LTAT. Any one knows if LTAT has organised the support for the deal with BHB minorities?
===================================================
What is the outcome of the EGM?

I heard the operator is hiring. Apparently they need more people to enter buy and sell orders. If we all help them, then the price can quickly go to RM2 for collection.
Posted by someone yesterday.

====================================================

How true is it?

Rebounded to 2.10/2.11. Dead cat bounce?

Rebounded to 1.44/1.45. Dead cat bounce?

Why such a big drop in the 2nd session?

Why such a big drop in the 2nd session?

Another boring day.

Which big funds selling? EPF has finished selling some time ago. There are many OTB subsribers in this forum. Please support PTLPOWER, like HENGYUAN last time.

I hope OTB positive comments are right. Who sold down from RM2.24 to RM2.10? I added at RM2.18. 😥

@ cgtan2020, thanks a lot for the info. Can you please let me know the address of the website.

Both YTL and YTLPOWER forums are full of unrelated spams. 😥

This forum is now full of unrelated spams. 😥

YTLPOWER at no 26 now? How to check?
