Dear Eric...this goid or bad news...

Posted by Erie > 2017-03-21 19:36 | Report Abuse

linges-i also about to ask the same question..not sure buy back shares is good or bad and how it will impact the market price..but after google it,i think it is a gud news..Buyback shows company is cash rich,think the shares is undervalued and to reward shareholders..when they buyback,the no of shares in market will be reduced..Thus if making profit,Earning Per share will be higher.

The Bottom Line(extract from investopedia) :)
It would seem that a company buying back its own stock is a good thing in that it takes shares out of circulation and may boost the earnings per share and stock price for the remaining shares. In recent years, though, the actual value of stock buybacks has come into question. Some experts contend that buybacks at current high market levels cause the company to overpay for the stock and are carried out to placate large shareholders.

Thx Eric for your opinion and link..

might be the sudden price surge from few days ago is due to this reason..insider may took advantage before news...

On the questionable portion..if Media buyback below NTA yes its positive...but if buyback above NTA (if price surge beyond NTA before AGM)... yes its look overpay..unless Media is very confident on their further earning and NTA..

I dont know what is MRT ads contract forecast earning..may be have to wait Sifu Icon8888 or LC Chong to come out with analysis.. ha ha..

Let see how Mr. Market react to this news..

Posted by linges > 2017-03-21 22:42 | Report Abuse

after further reading...its seems Media proposed to renew the buy-back authority, as previous buy-back approval will expiry on coming AGM...

so its not really a new news or new buy back request, but just Media have to renew it in every AGM, if Media intend to continue its buyback authority after AGM..

Agree. So stay in Media Prima better. Actually if read Bursa announcement EPF selling many counters eg banks. construction, etc. They have to reinvest their surplus money. It seems Media a good choice because paying good dividend and it use to be RM 2 ctr .
