News: ACE Market-bound Tashin to raise RM34.4m for business expansion

Prestar Resources Bhd’s 51%-owned Tashin Holdings Bhd is looking to raise RM34.41 million from its proposed listing on the ACE Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Bhd.

Tashin said in a statement that it plans to use RM17.55 million (51%) raised to purchase a piece of industrial land in Seberang Perai, Penang for the construction of a new factory with a total floor space of approximately 90,000 sq ft.

It will further utilise RM7.7 million (22.38%) to purchase machinery and equipment to support its business expansion into the manufacturing of wire mesh and to upgrade the existing steel processing line; RM5.96 million (17.32%) as general working capital while the remaining RM3.20 million (9.3%) to be used to defray listing expenses for the initial public offering (IPO).

The company’s steel products are widely utilised and applied in various industries such as automotive, manufacturing, engineering and steel fabrication as well as construction. Its current factory has an operating capacity of about 224,280 metric tonnes per annum.

Tashin managing director Lim Choon Teik said the new factory is intended to house the company existing manufacturing line for flat and square bars and its new manufacturing line for wire mesh.
