I must say Best Oracle's request for a judicial review is a timely reminder to those yield investors who think they can get an easy ride. Yield Investors, please go back to your little holes and re-calculate your yield per annum should the same thing happen to Sona. Instead of 3 months to receive your funds back, now input 2 years (maybe more) in your formula and see if you still get your required return. Nice one!!
U have to understand Credit Suisse to undestand Sona. Credit Suisse is European. In Europe, most bank interest rate is near 0! Some even negative! So give Credit Suisse 2-3% interest/pa already they happy. That's why they choose to be Yield Investors.
2-3% may not be sufficient to offset the country risk. Plus the fact that, in 2 years, we will be having our elections, more uncertainty. Good luck to the yield investors. Life is not that easy...unfortunately.
brent oil price up up 44.30 those that constantly talk 3 talk 4 and talk kok will disappear once oil price shoot up, all the syndicates and fund managers will goring the stock
Investors are supposed to vote based on the technical and economic condition of the Acquisition. The intention of SC is just simply that and nothing more. Remember to call a Spade a Spade.
Proven Reserves are defined based on;
"existing technical and economic conditions"
which, in the case of Sona, is 16 million barrels (2P - Proven + Probable). For some, that may be a Tad too small for an Offshore Field.
In Malaysia, anything below 30 million barrels is considered marginal. PETRONAS have stopped all future service contracts to develop these marginal fields, as they are no longer considered to be commercial.
Sona may not follow the same path as Cliq or Hibiscus...So vote on the facts and not on fancy.
founders even exercise their warrants and use bank borrowing to finance the conversion if any shortfall in capital repayment and share repurchase. they are not entitled to 8 cts repayment too
If QA go through, you need to convert your Warrants in order to get the share capital return. Which is estimate 30 sens EX price (NEW ADJUSTMENT FORMULA). Meaning, you need to top up 30 sens to get 8 sens.
"The new plan requires at least an additional layer of approval -- that of the Securities Commission to exempt Platinum Autumn from the obligation to undertake a mandatory takeover offer on Sona."
Still look fishy to me. I think it is better to delay the egm until approval is obtained. If we okay the QA and SC reject the new plan (Like cliq case), not enugh money to be give the promised 8sen and QA approved..how?
@sheep, the quoted line is for 33% mandatory takeover offer, so SC would be OK.
8 sen capital repayment should be no problem too, its capital repayment, your money. example: Today EX share price = 50sen, EX happen. Tomorrow share price will be 42 sen (open market), and the money goes to your bank.
