Cannot just issue more shares? I mean I am no expert but if their share spread for public is below threshold why isn't it possible to just issue bonus shares for example?
Kayce is right. Bonus issue is back to square one. Cannot solve the float problem. Only private placement can do the trick, but at the disadvantages of the minor shareholders. Retailers will be getting a raw deal.
just listed recently want privatise already? what u smoking man? if u want privatisation candidates, here's the list: FACBIND, ICAP, INSAS, KSENG, MPHBCAP. all cash rich
@speakup, you have to understand that the major shareholder is holding close to 75% and Prudential has slightly more than 5%, leaving its float at less than 20%. Bursa has given it until 26 March to rectify the situation.
Cash per share is only 5sen/share, which represents 8% of the current share price. There is no reason for major shareholder to take private now. Maybe later in future, but not now. All the other privatization candidates I mentioned before, have cash per share at least 50%.
take KSeng for example: Net cash rm987mil is rm2.73/share, representing 77% of the share price! Icap for example: Net cash rm140mil is rm1/share, representing 50% of the share price! so easy for major shareholders to take private, as they can do a SCR
All in all the qtr result is not bad all things considered. Div for whole 2022 at 5% already. Short term traders of course as always more depended on timing vs the performance of the company.
Is just 2 different poisons / beasts of your trading choice.
interesting that Malaysia's 2 biggest banks have buy calls on this relatively small stock yet on good dividend announcement and fair price people sell. I will never truly understand the mind of traders on bursa
Intraday or swing traders only interested in an ongoing 'cheong' counter. Now Innature is not in a high gear yet. Only institutions and serious long term investor are trying to nibble a bit here and there collecting slowly now.
@chkhooju, I think your understanding of the free float issue is wrong.
The public stock spread issue for Innature that bursa gave till 29 March to resolve is TO RAISE to the MINIMUM of 25% spread per bursa requirement. Currently the spread is around 20%+-.
So, I don't understand your statement of ........'Float now below 29%>'...............28%, 27%, or 26% are all below 29%, but meet the bursa 25% minimum requirement....pls do tell if I misunderstood your understanding
ohhh btw, just to help you all understand the big picture ........Datuk Simon Foong basically own around 75%, Prudential around 5% .......of course don't enough to meet the bursa 25% requirement......currently Innature is seeking bursa why Prudential's holding not considered under public spread (private investment vs under fund investment - hair splitting????).......
Then again, you can't just ignore the elephant in the room right - the 75%+- holding.........
clarified my typing errors, it should read below 20%> Its float is slightly more than 19%> only. Neither the Foongs or Prudential will sell it down to materialize the stipulated float.
seen like they give dividend to cover those shareholders who bought 0.68, breakeven the cost and sell its back to them. is this one of the reason that they are pressing the price?
Not 100% sure because TBS Malaysia (InNature) is using local suppliers and formulas approved by TBS UK. There might be some benefit from CPTPP but as to what it is not clear. I do not imagine it will have any impact on the products available or where they are sourced. Good question to ask them really.
