If tomorrow price hits RM2.12 I might sell off all.

I believe there's close to RM460 million invested in Nomura i-income Fund which will be liquidated soon since it has been classified as discontinued operation. There's no EGM required for the liquidation, so how does the Board of Directors plan to do with the additional RM460 million?

Hahaha, haven't you people realize that JohnDough is TTB?

Privatisation of MAA failed and market price crashed to 60 sen level currently.

MAA was cash rich with NTA above RM2 after disposal of their insurance unit; privatisation offer was merely RM1.10.

Do you think Surin has 75% votes in his pocket to approve the disposal?

controlling shareholder*

@Johnzhang, I don't think that soon. MAA took several years before the controlling proposed a ridiculously low offer price and prior to that MAA's market price drifted down to 50 sen level.

@Just88, MphbCap Board of Directors already said post disposal of insurance business there will be operating losses.

@Goh123, there's no certainty of a privatisation. Even if there is one eventually it could be years before such a proposal be floated.

SCGM closed at RM2.29. If price remains, after the special dividend and capital repayment of RM2.21, price will adjust only 8 sen.

@Youwin, what are you talking about?

Myself expected a minimum of 65 sen, so 45 sen is a disappointment to me.

The proposed disposal of the insurance unit has already been announced 11 months ago, only the disposal consideration was not known then but if one does his homework, he would have been able to guess that the consideration would be around RM500 million, so it wasn't really a surprise (only dumb dumb The Edge predicted RM330 million). What retailers want to know 8s how much will be distributed as special dividend/capital repayment. Since there will be around RM1 billion cash available, most people expect generous payout.

If Surin doesn't have the required 75% in his pocket, then he needs to buy up and share price will go north. If he already has 75% (via proxies and friendly parties) then price wouldn't move much and might even drop.

SCGM has been praised for being fair to minorities by proposing to pay out RM2.21 but yet the share price dropped and last closing price was merely RM2.29.

@Goh123, it's very hard to predict. In SCGM's case, retailers were predicting limit up but it was a shock when it went red. MphbCap has one similarity with SCGM, both needs 75% shareholders approval for their disposals. If not approved there will be no special dividend and capital repayment.

Favco declared 85sen dividend when Favco was 2.40, now Favco 3.22+
so Mphbcap after declare 45sen dividend should be 1.57+0.45=2.02
When SCGM announced special dividend and capital repayment totalling RM2.21, share price dropped 9 sen to RM2.29.

If the proposed disposal is not approved, Surin can't touch the cash hoard forever.

AGM date already announced to be held on 30.6.2022.

QR just out.

SCR is a make-or-break privatisation and automatic delisting. If approved, all the shares of the disinterested minorites will be cancelled.

Privatisation means taking the company private. It cannot remain listed after been privatised.

Price will hold at current level until announcement of special dividend is released.

Of the top 30 shareholders, who among them are aligned with Surin?

@Johnzhang, I think KayaToast meant top 30 major shareholders owning 75%.

@KayaToast, there are plans on the utilization of the disposal proceeds, it is just not yet announced. Chapter 10 of Listing Rules requires announcement to be made to Bursa and in circular issued to shareholders prior to convening EGM. Board of Directors are deliberating on the plans which will include a special dividend of at least 65 sen (but probably higher but how much higher?)

12.5 sen dividend confirmed coming.

For Affin please go to Affin forum.

Hahaha, people here wants to consume shark fin soup.

Board of Directors have to deliberate proposed usage of disposal proceeds first and announce it, then only call for EGM.

If LTAT were to ever decide to exit Affin, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation can easily buy over.

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation is the 2nd largest banking group in Japan and the 80th largest company in the World.

For people who doesn't know, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation of Japan is 2nd largest shareholder in Affin, holding indirectly over 23% equity.

@aklobi, if you elect for dividend reinvestment, the shares issued to you will be around 10% discount to the prevailing market price.

Yes, LTAT badly needs dividend, Boustead also badly needs dividend. Affin is a banking group that is currently traded at half its net assets value per share. Currently EPF is selling down because they needed cash badly for the RM10k withdrawals.

Overnight Dow Jones crashed over 1,100 points (for people who doesn't know) but Affin share price climbs. What does it tell you?

@loribalak, nice sharing.

Only 30 sen to reach RM2.50.

We are all in MphbCap together. We should have confidence and belief in what we invest in.

I now give target price of RM2. :-)

It will spike big eventually, mark my words.

@speakup, major shareholders giving chance to long suffering minorites who bought at high price to average down before the big spike comes.

Yes, that second sale would take Affin beyond RM2.50.

Top 30 shareholders own more than 76% of the total shares. Among the top 30 shareholders are several foreign and local investment funds, insurance fund, foreign bank, credit companies etc. All they want is a big, fat special dividend in return of giving their approval on the disposal.

Dear Sharkfin, you are needed in Reach Energy forum. Please visit.

Dow Jones is currently down over 700 points and if it stays down until closing, Asian market will be a sea of red tomorrow. How will MphbCap share price preform?

@theong, I sold off MAA at RM1.04 a few days before EGM, my cost around 60 sen, hahahaha made over 70% gain.

Yes, a must. Directors must furnish all necessary information in circular to shareholders when calling for the EGM. You never received circulars before?

How many sharks are required to make a bowl of shark fin soup?
