Mari saya belanja semua makan ajinomoto!

I hope that all the minority shareholders e.g. me - will get rewarded with the patience we have exercised thus far.

Please Minority - DON'T SELL until a good offer is placed on your plate.

B. Kawan is stingy with dividends - Over time for any company worth its salt, should pay increasing dividends. They want to take their money to their graves

Today I was screwed twice - B. Kawan dividend down by 10 cts & now this. What a way to go into the weekend.

Kudos to the management for being creative in these difficult times. Weak exchange rate makes it difficult to sell imported stuff which is compounded by GST.

I think the major shareholders think they can take the money to their graves - why so stingy? - payout ratio of only 42%.

Also - the meagre payment have to wait until Mar 2016 before $ in the pocket

Why the repeated extensions?

Awaiting with much anticipation bursa's query on whether Toyota Tsusho is still keen on KJ

Perhaps management is trying to talk down the share price - so that Aspire can acquire it for a song.

If & when they decide to issue the circular to shareholders on the proposed disposal & distribution of proceeds (after numerous extensions) - it will look ridiculous for them to stick to the same price of 3.30

The fact that the share price of KJ had risen even before good the results were announced is an indication of possible insider trading.

Management is waiting for minority shareholders to blink first - i.e. sell & give up.
No dividends means a fatter balance sheet = Higher Net Assets = Higher share price

Long overdue rise.

Still undervalued though - remember profits not distributed & properties not revalued for sometime

price seem to be creeping up. My advise is hold if you have the deep pockets.

I believe this quarter's earnings will be badly affected by GST & the weak economy

Today Aji's dividend received - can belanja kedai mamak

I started picking up Aji shares in about 2014.

I blamed it for my receding hairline but it's something that's unavoidable if one eats out most of the time. Almost every savory food sold has MSG especially the instant noodles. Then an idea floated in my mind - why not make money as I lose my hair - that'll hedge my misery & so far it's been good.

This Co has been around for sometime. My uncle who's in his 70s used to work there. Can you think of any other company other than banking & insurance where the business model can stand the test of time?

Unbelievable increase in share price!! Who's buying? Foreigners?

The so-called climb is due to shares turning ex-dividend tomorrow - nothing really to rejoice

True I believe you are referring to stale bulls

A sudden price rise?

Don't Can-One desperately require dividends to offset the cost of funding the KJ acquisition?

What happened? A sudden drop by 86 sen

With Value Cap in the picture, KJ shareholders can certainly demand for more.

A few days ago, I bumped into Datuk Anthony See (stays nearby). He told me off the cuffs that with asset revaluation, the shares should be worth "at least RM4".

Just watch - the share price is going to take a nose dive

The total dividend = 2.5 sen (cash) + (1/140 x 3.12) = 2.5 + 2.23 = 4.73 sen.

I hate share dividend. It dilutes the EPS, further causing a decline in share price. I'm not upset with the management because I think there are other forces at play.

A screwed up dividend by Btoto

Because of the political risk, I think it would be better to receive the dividends in the form of cash

I wonder what will happen on 30 Sep - another extension?

At 3.30 as the latest research report says is getting cheaper. The duck is getting fatter with profits made but no dividends. The price though is not revised. In my opinion the price is not acceptable. To objectively derive a fair price, they should apply the following formula.

The price of 3.30 (agreed long ago) compounded monthly at say 3.15% per annum (monthly FD rate) for the duration of the delay + the future value of dividends they normally would have paid but did not during the intervening period (i.e. between the date of agreement & the date the deal is settled) compounded monthly by the same rate.

That's fair - not a penny more or a penny less.

Profit for the year improved by 8.6% & EPS improved 8.9% but share price going south

Although good news from Philippines, B.Toto has political risk exposure.

The latest quarterly results show no top-line growth. The net profit however increased not because of management capability but due to luck. The large increase in MGS yield caused a reduction in contingent liabilities.

In summary, the management is inept and the major shareholders seem to allow it to drift into oblivion. How long do they want to wait before taking any action? Take the bull by the horns - do something!!

yes my concern as well. Is it due to the impending quarterly?
