I think most of this is panic selling. As i mentioned earlier, SCR is a binary play for the offeror (Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar). If the deal gets rejected during the EGM (will only need 10% of minority to reject or in MMC case 4.8% of total shares outstanding) he would have wasted time and money in the exercise.
It would have been easier for him to forced a privitisation by doing a General Offer. Given that he already owns 51.8% and PNB 21.0%, he would only need to buy less than 3% from other minority to forced a privatization. Once the free float is below 25%, MMC is basically in breach of Bursa listing requirement forcing the company to either increase the float or force delisting.
Most likely Tan Sri would have already approach PNB prior to the SCR exercise. Which is why i believe that PNB would except this deal once it reaches the EGM.
Agree with emsvsi. BOD will just deliberate and decide to present the offer to the shareholders. Just look at BOD members. Most of them are Tan Sri guys anyway.
We also need to understand why Tan Sri is doing this SCR. It's mainly for the restructuring of MMC group in order to facilitate the listing (IPO) of the port business. To say that he decides to abandon the SCR would mean that he is also abandoning the port business IPO. I just dont believe that is the case. It's known amongst the market participants that he has been looking to monetise the port business since 2017. Now would be the best to do so given the bullish trade environment.
SRC the final result is either success or fail. If VGO Tan sri need to accept whoever accept the offer and at the end Tan Sri can only increase his shareholder but unable to privatise MMC for him to do the relisting of Port Business.
I think the board meeting is to decide/confirm if the board will recommend the shareholders to accept the offer at the EGM and formulate and official statement also explaining why.
More precisely, BOD accepts the proposal means they agree to implement the proposal (call EGM to present to shareholders, etc). They, of course, can reject the proposal, but looking at the role Syed Mokhtar in MMC, is quite unbelievable this would happen :D :D
haha so u think TS made the offer, to his company, where Board all appointed by "him", and then the Board deliberated to reject the offer.. dont u all think that whatever plan TS had in mind, TS would have conveyed it to them.. or do i miss anything here?
As per what ziyang mentioned, the extension of deadline would most probably due to delay in preparation of documents due to the FMCO and EMCO.
BOD will deliberate the offer for minority shareholders to vote.
During the EGM, the only party that has enough shares to vote down the offer is PNB. Given Tan Sri relationship with them, I think it is highly likely that he had already discuss with PNB on the offer prior to the announcement. Which is why I believe the probability for the SCR to go through is high.
If shareholder approved of the offer during the EGM, it is as good as saying MMC is worth RM2. Most of the time share price will move very close to the offer price after the EGM.
From my research, most of the stocks that succeed in their EGM would trade at less than 5% to the offer price.
Post EGM, Pelangi traded at 35 sens (offer price 36.5 sens). MTD Acpi traded at 27 sens (offer at 28 sens) Degem traded at 1.08 (offer at 1.10) Mintye traded at 1.33 (offer at 1.36)
The only one that traded at more than 5% discount was Kwantas. Post EGM it traded at 1.45 (offer at 1.65)
Basically to get the payout you might not need to wait till the completion.
You are just showing youself as a extremist, egoist, not willing to accept someone who is against your view. Give youself a life, learn to view from other perspective.
From the sentence you commented, you are contradicting yourself. First comment asking people don't be horse back cannon but you criticized the naysayer to keep quiet at the second comment. If the outcome is another way round, would you still writing these two comments? This action is showing you are a horse back cannon too.
Ask yourself, were you criticizing naysayer with reason of they pointed out the view that against you? Or because they are simply giving view with no basis?
I'm not buying into this stock yet, but I love to see things from many view. That's how I assess the risk, not believe into something blindly, giving hope that the outcome will be in favor of me.
From the comments I read, the supporters think the proposal will be accepted by the directors because they opined that all these directors work for TSSM and appointed by him. For people who against them, they think it's political factors could affect the proposal. While another is pointing the there is risk of directors deliberation before the EGM. All these view are true and make sense, depends on your view from which angle. This is discussion forum I believe, isn't? My purpose of comments here is to encourage discussion culture here, not promoting to comment only one side view.
kikikiki emsvsi talk all n mighty here in forum, like the roti mighty white, but secret pm me asking me for tips kikiki. or maybe after i ignore u, then u post here? kikiki
@ykyew11 the longer towards the egm the more volatile it'll be.. besides that, since we have a party like pnb that can block the deal, so the longer it takes, the more ppl will speculate on it...
but the ultimate plan of the offeror should still remain the same, hence i believe the end results will still be the same.. Without this SCR privatisation, TS will never get to monetise his most valuable asset which is his port.. hence i think just be patience, the delay could possibly be due to working papers that need to be completed by respective advisers...
no, TS cant buy anything less than RM2.. the one transacted yesterday off-market could be institutional shareholders.. i thought more than 19 mil, looks like close to 30 mil.. well if im not mistaken the amount la
I guessed unlikely SM will acquired any share...by proxy maybe...the share not owned by STJ and bonus issue already concluded for SCR..any addition will ruined the calculation...
was honestly expecting the price to hover around 1.85-1.90 at this point logically based on past SCR's. This is my first SCR and MMC becomes an exception in a bad way.
up to this point I think investors overlooked the true value of this company, focusing mainly on the fail / success of privatization, forgotten the fact that the market price of this company can go beyond rm2 in the future without this privatization
don't forget that this company's market price is heavily manipulated even before the privatization announcement.
the lower the price goes before the voting, the lower chance shareholders will vote against the privatization, simply mindgame to ensure less people will vote against it
Syed Mokhtar: I am willing to offer to buy back MMCCORP shares at RM2 per share MMCCORP shareholders: Aiya nevermind la, RM1.70 also can, I sell you cheaper can also
Syed Mokhtar is NOT buying MMC Corp shares at RM2 per share. He is proposing MMC Corp pays minority shareholders RM2 per share. Syed Mokhtar pays NOTHING.
Relax la chill, I know what is going on, if anyone doesn't know that they could just go to Bursa announcement and read the SCR offer letter. I'm just making a joke about MMCCORP investors selling themselves short. No need to go into the details and say "Syed Mokhtar pays NOTHING"
If you are still an MMCCORP investor reading this forum, you would have known about the SCR anyways. No need to reply me in caps
