There is no such thing as waste of time to comment here. Whether you like this stock or not is another story . Nevertheless, any comments here are basically useful to those who are still ignorant and delusional.
As long as the executive chairman ( EC) , Liaw and MD, Ku ( so called the financial guru ) are still around ,this company is said to be destined to be doomed.
According to the representation by Liaw, no “ handsome dividend payout ” as before ( basically it could be interpreted as no dividend payout in the foreseeable future) due to the expected fall in revenue. Liaw even anticipated that there would be expected fall in revenue. Why ? This could be interpreted as no demand for their products as they are outdated.
EC Liaw further insinuates that the remaining cash of 140m would be reserved for nothing else except upgrading facilities .However it remains to be seen as to how this so called upgrade would ever be materialised. What it could be interpreted from his representation is that that the said cash reserve is entirely at his disposal. Who knows the said cash might be classified as " further deposits" under other receivables like the previous " missing cash of 40m"?
In a nutshell , it can be conferred that there is no prospect or growth for this company as long as the said individuals are still attached to the Management . That's why I say this company is destined to be doomed
The incumbent management of GT is said to be incompetent . As long as Liaw and ku are there ,the company is basically said to be hopeless. Making the incumbent auditors , KPMG resign half way before the expiry of their engagement is a big big mistake. Ku, as a CA ,should have acted professionally and prudently in this matter but he had not . His integrity as a professional has been put into disrepute........
Nope, the old guards like Liaw and Ku are still there. They are the rotten apples inside the box and sooner later the whole box is contaminated and decomposed like dead bodies...
1) why would any experts in the industry buy into a company with full knowledge the products it is churning out are stale and out dated? 2) how is it that an entity which bought a 10% shareholding in the company has full executive control of the company? 3) why aren't the other major shareholders do anything to address this confidence crisis?
APB and gangs are said to have control of more than 1/3 collectively in GT. Hence they are in full control as they wish. They should have known better that semi conductors biz is subject to change of technologies in this dynamic world and constant upgrade is inevitable to maintain their edge of competitiveness. Just take Inari Amertron for example, 400m has been forked out to upgrade their facilities actively but GT is acting on the contrary with " talking on paper " . Other significant shareholders such as EPF and TBH have already trimmed their shareholding below 5 % now and it is believed that they will continue to dump the rest of their investments sooner than expected. The share price is expected to depress in time to come .........
all i3 members, kindly comment only when necessary,, or else we might miss some good points. i guess all of you also like to read constructive comment . thank you for yr understanding , i h
As long as malaysia warren buffett mr ooi keng thye is still a shareholder in gtronic then i will follow show hand ! I dont want to miss fronken 2.0 starcruise !
@Bursino, they bought at a premium to get their hands on gtronics cash pile which they are now spending on god knows what. Auditors being told to resign might mean they couldn't agree on the value.
As for major shareholders, EPF and Tabung Haji will probably have spoken to the new owners and their reaction to their meeting was to quickly liquidate their entire holdings. Make of that what you will.
Yer, more cash is expected to be classified as " deposit " under the specific agenda of Liaw and the Gang. If you believe in him, you believe everything. The cash reserve is expected to be exhausted through other means as well such as payment of high perks etc....
Doubt is cast on the integrity and professionalism of that fellow, Ku , who is a CA and so called the " financial Guru" , who is a director too. We find it hard to believe he could allow the resignation of the incumbent auditors, KPMG in the middle of their office term to happen to the detriment of the interest of all shareholders. As a normal sensible CA, he/she does not allow this to happen to the listed company unless he/she has bad intention.
Thanks @Narialse I imagine the company will need more funds to upgrade. Time to implement the plans. It will take a few years to see any tangible results.
the 1st thing in the restructuring is to get rid of the good for nothing incompetent interim management otherwise t the prospect of the company is stagnant if not regressing further............
