On behalf of the Board of Directors of UOA Development (“Board”), CIMB Investment Bank Berhad (“CIMB”) is pleased to announce that UOA Development is proposing to undertake, a dividend reinvestment scheme that will allow shareholders of UOA Development (“Shareholders”) to have the option to elect to reinvest their dividend entitlements (i.e. cash dividends that have been declared by UOA Development (“Dividend(s)”) which include interim, final, special or any other cash dividend) in new ordinary share(s) of RM0.05 each in UOA Development (“Share(s)” or “UOA Development Share(s)”) (“Proposed DRS”).
In addition to the above, UOA Development had on 6 April 2012, submitted an application to Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Securities”), seeking its concurrence to allow the Proposed DRS to be applicable to its first and final single tier dividend of 10 sen per UOA Development Share (“Final Dividend”) that was announced on 23 February 2012 (“Concurrence Sought”).
Shareholders will receive the Electable Portion in cash if they do not expressly elect in writing to exercise the Option to Reinvest by the Expiry Date. As such, Shareholders who wish to receive their Dividends wholly in cash need not take any action with regards to the Notice of Election.
UOA Development will issue New Shares to Shareholders who elect to exercise the Option to Reinvest under the Proposed DRS. The Issue Price which will be determined by the Board on a price fixing date to be announced later, shall be the higher of the following:
(a) at an issue price of not more than ten percent (10%) discount to the five (5) day volume weighted average market price (“VWAP”) of UOA Development Shares immediately prior to the price fixing date to be determined; or
(b) the par value of UOA Development Shares at the material time.
The New Shares will be issued free of any brokerage or fees to the Shareholders unless otherwise provided by any statute, law or regulation.
It's ok brother bryan_su , it's the issuing bank CIMB purposely pushing down the price of CE....price of mother share increase to $1.50 but CE still at 7 cents , same as when mother was at $1.40
chong gor, if let said the bigger shareholder (UOA holdings)take the re-invesment plan...the share increase a lots, the earning per share diluted very much, some more, it just focus in klang valley area, dun understand why still want to increase its capital... very risky.. think abt mahsing, with so much of big projects, they never do that which is good for small investors..now uoadev look like dijaya case already but even worst than dijaya, capital increase but the business still the same... if there plan to go outside from klang valley, then much reasonable.
Yes, brother bryan_su,you got a good point here... if the UOA Holding take the reinvestment plan, it will dilute the eps, that's for sure. But then if the company doesn't pay cash dividend, then they will use this cash to reduce the bank's borrowings.
chong gor, they got RM330m cash and only 10m borrowing .... if they don't have a plan to expand the business, i don't see a need to do so (DRS).. Some more, in the bad economy right now. cash is KING!
Maybe, just maybe, the extra money can be use further expansion to buy more land or perhaps pay the banks so that the company will be just cash rich & no borrowings, hee,hee,hee & this will be wonderful as most investors will come in probably...hopefully lah.
But then if we don't reinvest , we can always opt for cash payment.
Now UOADEV is following the Maybank's style who is the 1st to adopt this scheme in Malaysia.....maybe UOADEV is the 2nd one, correct me if I am wrong please.
Cheers brother bryan_su, let's hope for more to come with the just released report from CIMB.
Remember what CIMB report just said a few days ago...this..
UOA Development - Unjustified depressed valuations
Due to the depressed share price, UOA Dev’s valuations are among the cheapest in our property coverage. Its P/Es are the lowest while its dividend yields are the highest.....what more can you ask for, better than SPSetia perhaps?
Let's hope it catches the foreigners eyes as well as local fund managers, hee, hee, hee
With such good EPS, low PR, dividend yield, cash rich,etc, etc, this counter should actualy be able to reach around SPSetia price of more than $3 but it had not, keeps me wondering too.
CIMB just gave a new report with a TP of $1.84.....so, fireworks tomorrow starts?
Now read this..
UOA Dev is on track to meet our full-year core net profit forecast of close to RM300m, trumped only by SP Setia and UEM Land. But UOA Dev’s market cap trails far behind, leading to mid-single digit P/Es and a dividend yield that is several multiples the sector average. The reason for the depressed share price is investor concern over the company’s large exposure to commercial and high-rise residential properties which are more sensitive to downturns. We think that the concerns are overblown. Investors should take opportunity of the weak share price to accumulate this cheap stock.
UOA Dev is very much on track to meet our full-year core net profit of close to RM300m as YTD new sales of over RM300m are ahead of target and there are enquiries for several blocks of Horizon. A net profit of nearly RM300m would put it in third place, after SP Setia and UEM Land. However, UOA Dev’s market cap is a fraction of the top two developer’s market cap which means the stock is trading at mid-single digit P/Es, the lowest in the sector. Its dividend yield of 8% is the highest in the sector. The company also has net cash of around RM300m or 25 sen per share and is trading at a 44% discount to RNAV, the steepest in the property sector. This makes UOA Dev a very attractive investment proposition. We make no changes to our earnings forecasts, RM1.84 target price and Trading Buy recommendation.
You are much welcome brother JimYeoh & let's hope that all of us here who invest in this counter make some really good money...you too included brother. Let's see it moves to higher ground starting this morning.
Today closing is good for mother & son CB...confident to say that there's more to come tomorrow...as I had always say , stay on & then wait for the dividend announcement that comes when the AGM is being held.
