MIDF Research maintained a “buy” rating on MMC Corp with a higher target price of RM1.40 (from RM1.2) to account for the recent price hike. It believes that MMC Corp's share price still has room to soar given the low valuation that the company is currently trading at below -1 standard deviation at 9.6 times price-earnings ratio (PER).
I think the rumours of privatisation is getting real and stronger ! But wish not going to happen coz even major shareholder offer at RM1.80 , it's still deem super undervalue based on MMC NTA of RM3.21 per share
@Hglee92 just to be honest I think if they offer 1.80 now, most of the retailers will take it, rather than waiting for it to rise to rm2 above, which is something cannot be guaranteed and didn't know how long it might takes. rise to nta level is almost imposible consider it's current EPS is still below that standard
definitely a happy situation if shareholders are willing to offer 1.8 now, but realistically we just hope the upward momentum continue to maintain until our respective TP
To privatise, you will need PNB to come along. And with ESG and 'fairness' in the spotlight, it will be extremely tricky for PNB to go along, and so the Offeror(s) can buy my shares at RM 6 per MMC share
And the independent adviser that will be appointed, they will tell you that the offer, even at RM 3 is both UNFAIR and UNREASONABLE given the intrinsic value of MMC and the daily trading volume (i.e. highly liquid)
the recent article in the edge said ts already in talk with pnb.. so they could offer at lower price. so thats game over to minority hoping for higher price. and for independent adviser, they can always say not fair bcos lower than intrinsic value, but they can say reasonable since the offer is higher than past 12 months price and recommend minority to accept the offer..
