I'm quite confident that Tomypak will benefit from Nestlé's GPC.

Mohamed Nizam Abdul Razak, the brother of Malaysia’s Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, has been a long time shareholder of the company. He has been in Orion, or CWorks, from the early days of 2005.

Back then Nizam was a substantial shareholder, holding above 5%, before subsequently reducing the stake over the years.

When Orion’s 2016 annual report was released last year, Nizam held 4.45 million shares, or a 3.34% stake, in the company as of March 31, 2017.

Then as of Nov 15, 2017, Nizam now has 11.8 million shares, although that stake has been diluted to 2%.

The dilution could likely be due to a rights issue exercise undertaken by the company to raise some RM79.2mil early last year.

Orion’s corporate exercise consisted of a renounceable rights issue of 465.85 million new rights shares, together with 232.93 million warrants on the basis of seven rights shares for every two exiting Orion’s shares.

This came with one free warrant for every two rights shares subscribed. The rights shares were priced at 17 sen.

As for Orion’s shareholding changes, there have been plenty of movements in the last few months.

In October, Orion’s co-founder and chief executive officer (CEO) Abdul Rani Achmed Abdullah ceased to be a substantial shareholder in the company, after disposing of a 6.34% indirect stake.

Orion non-executive director Yahya Razali has also been steadily reducing his stake in the company since October too. From a stake of some 24.38% in Oct, he now has some 12.2% as of Dec 22, 2017.

Another director, Adnan bin Zainol, has also been disposing his stake.

From a stake of 4.89% or 29.3 million shares, he has since been selling down his shares. On Dec 7, he sold 18.28 million shares via an off market transaction, leaving him almost with no more shares anymore.

Perhaps they were making way for new shareholders, one of whom is Orion’s new CEO, Mohd Shaharul Mohd Shariff (pic).

Another new shareholder appears to be ASM Mara Trust Management Bhd, which emerged with a 5.14% stake after it acquired 20.86 million shares on Oct 31, last year.

Worth to have a read.

I do expect FPI might declare 8-12 sen dividend at 2017Q4 based on their previous dividend pay out record.

Whoever interested about the article can purchase The Busy Weekly at nearby 7-11. Above is my understanding from The Busy Weekly interview with FPI director about prospect of FPI.

The Busy Weekly has an interview with FPI director. Basically two main reason will support FPI future expansion:
1. Main customer, Roland expand their business at Malaysia will benefit FPI;
2. Purchase of FPT, which is their supplier and can benefit their operation management;

From 2018 onwards, FPI will undergo scale up expansion instead of lateral expansion. They will produce and assembly sound system. The profit margin is expected lower than current manufacturing business.

FPI is under-value at current position.

Latest The Edge Malaysia article "Riding Malaysia's Export Heroes" did mention Tomypak. I believe the export market for the upcoming QR should be good. This might explain the price movement of Tomypak recently.

Latest The Busy Weekly got two pages write up about FPI. I believe It gives positive impact for FPI.

Something interesting gonna happen?

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Group is of the view that the businesses will grow steadily in the near future amidst the volatility of raw material prices and the global economic uncertainties.
For tin manufacturing segment, demand is expected to grow marginally in this matured and stable industry but will remain challenging in the short-term. This is due to the material costs, which are denominated in USD, resulting in higher operating costs. However, if the exchange rate remains unfavourable in the near term, the Group may have to adjust the selling price accordingly. On the other hand, the printing services saw an increase in demand for the year 2016 and the Group intends to pursue an expansion of this market segment.
The demand for F&B segment remains strong despite the uncertainties in the global economic and remains in highly competitive market. The continued volatility of dairy products prices and the higher priced local sugar compared to international prices creates a challenging environment especially for sweetened condensed milk export from Malaysia.
However, with the strong global demand for condensed milk, the Group believes that this business segment will still be able to sustain its profitability.

The Group sees positive inroad in penetrating the new foreign markets via trade shows as well as through other traders and distributors. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Board believes that the prospects and future financial performance of the Group is expected to be favourable in the mid-term.
Currently, we do not have a dividend policy. The dividend declares will be much dependence on profits generated during the financial year, by taking into consideration future investments on capital expenditure and expansion plan. For the current financial year, the dividend of 1.5sen per ordinary share will be proposed for shareholders’ approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting, as compared to previous year’s dividend of 4sen per ordinary share amounting to RM3,732,213.
This forward-looking statement is based on current expectations and assumptions made by the Board through the analysis of historical information and trends. The Board is under no obligation to and expressly disclaims any obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events or otherwise.

Thanks, Edwin Kai :)
