I say bro Lucas, you do not need to spread news like this. I think not much people will trust you here. In fact, we will be very caution about the shares that you promoted. Guess your money should be stucked in these counter especially OCNCASH. Otherwise you won't so pushy. Just my 2 sense. Forumers know how to judge after they see you keep promoting.

Brahmal emerges in SMRT, company ventures into education sector

BY TEE LIN SAY

Brahmal’s Creador fund has also bought a stake in Oldtown among other companies.

PETALING JAYA: Savvy investor Brahmal Vasudevan has emerged with a 6.62% stake, or 12.6 million shares, in human resources (HR) company SMRT Holdings Bhd, Bursa Malaysia filings showed.

SMRT Holdings’ shares were among the most actively traded on Bursa yesterday, rising 8.5 sen or 23.29% to 45 sen on a volume of 22.72 million shares. It also recorded its 52-week high of 47.5 sen. Meanwhile, its warrants increased nine sen to 38.5 sen on a volume of 19.88 million shares.

SMRT Holdings has a market capitalisation of RM85.6mil.

In the past, Brahmal’s emergence in a listed company has stirred excitement, as he is seen as an investor who looks for undervalued stocks.

Brahmal, who also runs private equity firm Creador, had previously taken a personal stake in MyEG Services Bhd, from which he had gained a 300% return within one year of investing.

His Creador fund has also taken stakes in Oldtown Bhd and Bonia Corp Bhd. Other companies associated with investments by Brahmal and Creador are Scicom MSC Bhd and GHL Systems Bhd. The shares of all these companies had appreciated post their entry.

When contacted, SMRT Holdings’ chief executive officer Datuk R. Palan said the market was finally rewarding his company for its venture into the education sector.

“We have always been undervalued, especially among the education companies. Even with this run-up, our stock is still trading at a price earnings ratio of 10 times of 2013 earnings,” he said.

For the financial year ended Dec 31, 2013, SMRT Holdings recorded a net profit of RM8.22mil from RM8.51mil previously. Revenue dropped to RM52.4mil from RM61.45mil in the previous corresponding period.

Since 2012, SMRT Holdings has deliberately changed its business model to become a workforce education provider rather than being a pure HR solutions provider.

This change has been reflected in the contracts it has won in the last few years.

SMRT Holdings won its first major education contract in September 2010 when it secured a RM90mil job from the Education Ministry for an English language teaching (ELT) project over three years.

In December last year, SMRT Holdings was granted an extension of contract by the Education Ministry for an ELT programme in primary schools for RM60mil.

The extension constitutes the recruitment and management of up to 120 ELT consultants to implement In-Service Teachers Training for English Language Teachers for a period of two years from Oct 1, 2013 to Sept 30, 2015.

This year, SMRT Holdings finalised the acquisition of a 70% stake in Cyberjaya University College of Medical Sciences for RM27.5mil. While it had been making losses in 2011 and 2012, it turned around last year, and Palan expected a better performance this year.

Palan said that SMRT Holdings would grow the new business by leveraging on its existing network to attract students from the Middle East.

Yesterday, SMRT Holdings announced that it was undertaking a 10% private placement consisting of 29.19 million new shares. It would raise either RM5.8mil or RM8.8mil, depending on a minimum or maximum scenario.

Out of this, between RM3.11mil and RM3.66mil will be used for working capital, while between RM2.46mil and RM4.92mil to repay bank borrowings.

The placement shares will not be priced at more than a 10% discount to the five-day volume-weighted average market price of SMRT Holdings’ shares before the price-fixing date.

Refer to above news it is bought by the investor for longer term not goreng. Don't worry about UMA. In fact it is normal for a counter to up few hundred percent in price.
