Hi. Can I ask from the experts here. Radiant issued 96M of shares to selected investors. Today only 43M of shares traded. So the "selected investors" are still holding tightly their shares?
The owner made profit in paper only. They can't sell their shares in the market within this few months. Did u see any announcement that the directors are dumping their shares?
Wai Yoong : What's the point of you selling today when you expect it to go up tomorrow? Just hold for another day lor... Or are you trying to trick others into buying your shares tomorrow so that you can cut loss? Weird, contradicting comment from you... Lol
<Hi. Can I ask from the experts here. Radiant issued 96M of shares to selected investors. Today only 43M of shares traded. So the "selected investors" are still holding tightly their shares?>
96M for private investor. 128M is public offer. The 96M will not involve in stock market exchange, and not all 128M is bought by public.
Trading Volume is just an indicator, 43M trading volume doesnt mean 43M shares has been traded. I.E I buy 100 Lot and sell 100 Lot on the same day, the trading volume will increased by 200 and not the net value.
Kc Teh Thanks for your explanation. I understood that 43M shares traded for buy and sell volume. Aint' it shows that only "ikan bilis" were selling cause the volume quite low for just 2nd day trading? Just my tot only.
I think better we switch to DSONIC. It is Tun Mahathir link stock. DSONIC chairman is brother in law of Tun Mahathir.
CYBERJAYA (July 25): Datasonic Group Bhd plans to aggressively expand its business overseas this year, focusing on Indonesia, West Africa and Middle East as it is confident of the business prospects in these markets, and believes it has more than half a chance of clinching projects tendered.
"Our focus will be on secured identification (ID) business, driving licence and passports," deputy managing director Chew Ben Ben told reporters after Datasonic's 10th annual general meeting today. "We will not go into foreign countries if the chance of winning the contract is less than 50%. It is not worth the cost spent."
He pointed to Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Qatar as some of the potential markets which Datasonic considers to be politically and financially stable.
The second largest shareholder with a 25.33% stake, Chew said Datasonic aims to tender for projects with a profit margin of about 20%.
"We will also bank on the support of a good local partner, while we expect the government there to be a good paymaster. Once secured, we hope that earnings contribution will come in starting from FY20," he added, noting that contracts in foreign countries normally have a long gestation period.
This year, Chew said Datasonic hopes to secure a significant government contract in at least one of the 17 West African countries.
"The contract that we are aiming for is the secured ID Solutions," he said, adding the goal next year is to secure a sizeable immigration-related contract from the Saudi government, which handles more than two million Muslim pilgrims yearly.
"The Saudi government is very impressed with our product offering, particularly with our ability to clear one immigration customer under 15 seconds via our proprietary passport and facial recognition technology, without compromising on the security aspect," he said.
In Indonesia, Datasonic is hoping to secure work to upgrade magnetic bank cards to chip-based cards.
In December 2016, Bank Indonesia announced that the archipelago will be rolling out chip-based technology bank cards by early 2022, which will affect 143 million debit cards and 17 million credit cards currently in circulation, and over 100,000 automated teller machines.
"Although the timeline is still a long way, we are taking this opportunity to ready our technical expertise ... and if we do get the contract, the payment terms will be per upgraded card," Chew said.
In September 2017, Datasonic embarked on a joint-venture partnership with Perum Percetakan Negara Republik Indonesia, a state-owned firm to establish PT Datasonic Teknologi Indonesia, which will expand the smart card business in the island archipelago.
Chew said Datasonic's orderbook stands at RM958 million, which will keep the company busy for more than three years.
On market speculation that the company is politically linked, managing director Datuk Abu Hanifah Noordin, who owns 28.38% of Datasonic, maintained, "We are not linked to Umno or Bersatu. We are a company whose business value is always based on merit and capability. We are basically non-partisan.
"Yes, our long-standing chairman is the brother-in-law of the Prime Minister, but look at our track record — we have secured projects under the previous Barisan Nasional government, and we worked well with the then opposition government in Penang."
A former military general, Datasonic chairman Tan Sri Mohamad Hashim Mohd Ali, 83, is the younger brother of the Prime Minister's wife, Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali. Mohamad Hashim has been Datasonic chairman since June 2011.
"We have survived political changes, which I deem to be good as it reflected the will of the nation. Contracts will be merit based and Datasonic should be judged solely on its merit," he added.
Datasonic is currently trading at about 85 sen, for a market capitalisation of RM1.16 billion.
