In the past, i always like Tony's comments and jokes about Firely, Scoot or MAS or Singapore airlines. He is championing fair ground competition. One can relate to him about his early days of obstacles and challenges. How he moved from music industry to airline business.

We also often heard how Tony be critical about the KLIA2, from planning, design, building, PSC charges or tax and the operation issue of KLIA2.

This reflects well on the values of fair play, always think of rakyat and how to be effective and efficient. He does not need any 'tongkat' to succeed.

With him taking side now, this just destroy many respects on him. Hard to understand why Tony, a personality like him would do what he has been doing for the last 1 week. Hmmm.......

This quarter that was announced today showed significant jump in EPS and Profit ratio. Its a good sign that its fundamental is still positive and increasing.

How Mr. Market react to this and speculated, its a different story. But value seeker and long term holders will be glad with this quarter's performance.

“Essentially, what the new proposal tries to achieve is to privatise IWCity. It is a good investment deal for Ekovest as the RM1.50 offer price represents a 60% discount over the open market value of IWCity. The issuance of new shares at a premium of 28% to Ekovest’s current market price is also a good deal for Ekovest,” a source familiar with the proposed deal told The Edge Financial Daily yesterday.

Lets just look at Yr on Yr on 3 divisions.
Ignore Investment Holdings division because of the sales to EPF (one time off deal)

FY15/16 vs FY16/17

Constructions Rev / Constructions Profit
619mil VS 820mil / 46mil VS 206mil

Property Rev / Property Profit
50mil VS 103mil / 10mil VS 14mil

Toll Operations Rev / Toll Operations Profit
123mil VS 1088mil / 104mil VS 327mil
---------------------------------------------------

Year on Year figures, the property division is very small in Ekovest.
Property profit is also lower than Construction and Toll Operations.

The overall company ROI will be better without Property Division.
Look at the figures.

There will be cash distribution of RM0.32/share held. Share price will be adjusted by deducting RM0.32. Less shares means when the company has more profits to distribute to its shareholders. Thus a higher EPS will be achieved.

So, after the Capital Reduction and the business is constant like past years, we shall see more profit, a higher EPS. And if the business is growing, it will further amplify the profit and EPS as well.
