Benalec to gain RM24.7m from land sale: Benalec Holdings Bhd expects to realise a net gain of RM24.7mil from the sale of a 216,427 sq metre land in Pekan Klebang, Melaka, to Titanium Hallmark Sdn Bhd for RM110mil. — StarBiz
The Disposal is expected to realise a net gain of RM24.7 million representing earnings per share of approximately RM0.03. Benalec’s NA per share will increase from RM0.77 to RM0.80 (after accounting for the gain on the Disposal) based on Benalec’s total issued share capital of 799,097,100 ordinary shares (excluding 12,705,400 treasury shares) as at 30 June 2017. The Disposal will not have any effect on Benalec’s gearing.
KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 31): Benalec Holdings Bhd is selling seven plots of leasehold land measuring 216,427 sqm at Klebang, Melaka, for RM100.17 million cash.
In a filing today, Benalec said its three indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries — Sentosacove Development Sdn Bhd, Oceanview Realty Sdn Bhd and Strategic Cove Sdn Bhd — entered into a sale and purchase agreement with the purchaser Titanium Hallmark Sdn Bhd for the disposal.
Under the deal, Benalec expects to realise a net gain of RM24.7 million representing earnings per share of about 3 sen apiece.
Proceeds from the land sale, Benalec said, will be used to finance its ongoing reclamation projects and to meet its working capital requirements.
"The disposal is in the ordinary course of business of Benalec.
"The disposal provides an avenue for Benalec to monetise and crystallise the value of its landbank while at the same time, improve the cash flow of the company," it added.
At 3.12pm, shares of Benalec rose 3.57% or 1.5 sen to 43.5 sen, giving it a market capitalisation of RM331.62 million.
Proposal for share buy back from shareholders in the coming AGM. A good sign to prove the share price is undervalued.Just be patient for the big picture including the disposal of land bank to be realistic for substantial input channel to the company to further utilised to offset its financial programs. Just hold to sustain more profits rather than to buy and sell down with limited profits.
SC & Bursa should come out & reprimand Benalac Directors for keep releasing unfavorable & negative news like selling off land and unlikely then go to PN17. Also since it is a listed company, the family & related family members should be allowed to hold more than 50% total shares. Its a shame to bring internal family issues & created nonsense to company value & other shareholders. Stop playing dirty tactics to buyback shares at dirt price & then push it up again.
Selling of land is considered negative news? Do u know how many lands ben has?? This is why this marine construction is so valuable..they should sell more or develop themselves..
There is one idiot always argue this is bloody good company. Telling all to invest extra long term with this company. I think he/she no longer exist in this space
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
