Thong after exercising his warrants to cross 50% shareholding would increase total shares in issue beyond 900 million. Assuming an enlarged share capital of 1 billion shares, a special dividend of 35 sen would require payout of RM350 million and some cash is also required to redeem some preference shares. This is one reason why Insas is hoarding cash.

Recently the major shareholder of Eurospan made an Unconditional Mandatory General Offer at RM1.70. The offer closed last Friday. Today the Company announced a special dividend of 20 sen. I expect Thong to mirror this by first exercising sufficient warrants at 90 sen to cross 50% shareholding and launch an Unconditional Mandatory General Offer. As soon as the offer closed Insas would declare a special dividend of 35 sen to relieve Thong's personal financial burden.

Dear John, how much cash balance in MPHBCap? SCR is paid out from the Company's cash balance, not a single sen from Surin. If the amount exceeds the Company's cash balance and the proceeds from the sale of investments it wouldn't get past the Board of Directors.

Defense Minister is asking for a higher price from Sarawak of RM2.60 per share or else there's no approval. Those LTAT people who negotiated a price of RM2.40 have since resigned.

Price possibly RM2.60 ?????

We have entered into the second half of the year and Insas is still 26 sen off its peak in January. Ah Thong is so kind to keep price down for almost 6 months in order for more retailers to buy at super duper discount price. Buy next week at 1.09 or buy the warrants below 30 sen AND exercise them.

Ah Thong is such a kind hearted boss; he continues to keep Insas share price down so that more people gets to buy cheaply. Long life to such a kind boss.

No point talking science fiction in the forum, you can't make money in the stock market talking and thinking like this. After having sold ALL my Insas I channelled the sales proceeds into Mycron, KPS and Eksons and sold part of these stocks this month for further gains. Be a contrarian and make money not a science fiction time traveller.

The Chinese owns the Kazakhstan oil concession directly 40% while Reach Energy owns the balance 60%. The oil is plentiful there but the problem is extracting the oil. Huge impairment has already been made to write down the cost of plant and equipment. Now we need to wait for the turnaround or disposal of the whole concession.

Thong needs to acquire sufficient Insas-WC in order to be able to cross 50% and render the MGO unconditional. And Thong can stealthily accumulate Insas-WC without having to report any purchases since he isn't a director of Insas.

Insas BOD decided to take profit on Inari as most insas shareholders want Insas to take profit. So no complaint from me when Insas sold some Inari shares to report a good quarter result.

The problems is I cannot understand why Insas BOD hold such a large cash hoard of over RM 1 billion?


Insas is hoarding cash for the big, special dividend of 35 sen after Thong exercises his warrants and crossing 50% shareholding.
