Chang24 Yes, TAGB is indeed the main target. If Tony does not revise upwards the offer price for TA then TAGB mgo offer will be at 30 sen and another long wait while he keeps buying at low price from open market. Frustrating but minority investors can only watch this slow moving train and hope for something down the road. I will wait for however long it takes.
I will urge all minority shareholders to not give up and sell at such a low price. Together we are big and strong. Hold tight and mati also don't let go. When we show courage, we will get support from our creator.
Tony cannot buy higher than 66 sen for at least 12 months. However, controlling shareholders usually use unofficial proxies (friendly parties) to buy. Don't know how Tony will play it. He could still push up tomorrow (via friendly parties) or push down. He is allowed to sell if he wants to. At the close of the MGO this evening, there was acceptances of 90 million shares meaning these people wanted 66 sen for their shares. However, these shares will now be returned since it was a conditional MGO not an VGO. If it were an VGO then the shares would have been automatically accepted.
Dear jackkin, Datuk Tiah is forbib from trigger another MGO for one year period that mean he cannot buy from open market more than 2% in any rolling 6 months period. The price he ready to pay from open market has no restriction that mean he can buy above 66 cents. The rule only apply if he success 50% then within 6 months period he cannot offer any favorable term from his last offer. Thank you.
TheContrarian, can those shareholders of the 90million shares sell their shareholdings in the open market tomorrow or they have to wait for the shares to be transferred back into their CDS accounts?
If they sell tomorrow and the shares not credited back to their CDS accounts by T+3 then there will be penalty share buy-in of ten bids above the last done price. In IWCity's recent failed MGO I think it took about a week for the shares to be credited back. You can visit that forum to check on the comments.
In the past six months Tony already acquired more than 2%. If he buys one more share in his name after the MGO has expired he would illegally trigger another MGO. After 6 months he may be allowed to buy up to 2% at any price but I am not sure on this.
Jackkin The following announcement tells us of a pending mgo for tagb if Tony achieves 50%+ and the offer than goes from conditional to unconditional for TA Enterprise. With a successful mgo, tony would have triggered the mgo for tagb.
What we need to note is that Tony has been buying from the open market since the announcement. His tagb stake from 32%+ is now quite close to 40%. Therefore the mgo for tagb will be triggered even though he is not successful with the TA mgo.
As for TheContrarian claim that Tony has 75% stake in tagb is a miscalculation on his or her part. The mistake is by adding TA's 60% stake in tagb and tony, alicia and joo kim stake of 15% to make a grand total of 75%. Doing that is a mistake as TA's stake is not entirely Tony's stake in tagb, not until he buys over all TA shares and achieve 100%.
For now tony has close to 40% stake in TA and also close to 40% stake in tagb.
TAGB MGO IS JUST ABOUT TO HAPPEN. Hold on tight. Thanks for asking Jackkin. God bless you with knowledge and lots of wealth. Cheers!!!!
12th Sept 2018, as at 5.00 p.m. (Malaysian time) on the Closing Date, the Offeror and PACs held (together with TAE Shares for which valid acceptances in respect of the Offer have been received and TAE Shares that are already acquired, held or entitled to be acquired or held by the Offeror) 44.30% of the total issued share capital of TAE. As such, the Acceptance Condition has not been fulfilled.
Accordingly, the Offeror shall return all the Offer Shares (which have been transferred into the Offeror’s Central Depository System account) to the respective holders who have accepted the Offer.
Tony AND PERSONS IN CONCERT already own more than 75% in TAGB. You can't have a separate MGO in TAGB if already exceeded 50%. You can only have an VGO to take it private by offering to buy 90% and then compulsorily acquire the balance after the 90% achieved.
21.01 Delay before subsequent offer Unless otherwise approved by SC, the offeror and all persons acting in concert with the offeror shall not, within 12 months from the date of the announcement that a take-over offer has been withdrawn, has lapsed or failed- a. Announce a take-over or possible take-offer offer for the offeree; or b. Acquired any voting shares or voting rights of the offeree if the offeror would thereby become obliged to make a mandatory offer;
The 12 months delay subsequent offer is from the date of the announcement that a take-over failed- that is on 12th Sept 2018.
Dear all, Datuk Tiah had succeed in overcome the first hurdle the 33% shareholding. He can now slowly accumulate not more than 2% in any rolling 6 months at whatever price he ready to pay in open market. Next AGM he will propose resolution on share buyback up to 10% max of pay-up capital to support the price.
In TAGB case: Currently TAE holds 60.17% and Datuk Tiah together with PAC hold 15.34% of TAGB share. Bursa had given another 6 months extension to TAGB until 28 DEC 2018 to comply with the public shareholding spread of min 25%.
So the solutions to address the shortfall in public shareholding spread are: 1. Datuk Tiah or TAE sell min. 0.51% (27.15 million) of TAGB share in open market. 2. Distribute 1.61% (85.6 millions) TAGB held by TAE to existing TAE shareholder in ratio 1 : 20 3. TAE take TAGB as 100% ownership subsidiaries by offering every 1 TAGB (value as RM 1.17 per share) share exchange for new issue of 0.45 TAE (value as RM 2.60 per share) share with Datuk Tiah and PAC committed to exchange their TAGB share for new issue TAE share. (Datuk Tiah can apply exemption from MGO TAE again (more than 2% TAE share in rolling 6 month): The offeror is issued new voting share as consideration for the sale or disposal of assets and/or interest by him. 4. Datuk Tiah taking TAGB private by offering RM??? for every TAGB share not own by Datuk Tiah, PAC and TAE. Is this case TAGB will be delisted and will become 60.17% TAE subsidiaries with the rest own by Datuk Tiah , PAC and other private shareholders. 5. Acquired new assets payment by new issue of TAGB share so that the enlarge TAGB share holding spread comply with the min 25% spread.
In conclusion: Datuk Tiah is a very patience and Savvy investor with his interest came first. Calvin Tan should meet Datuk Tiah and tutor him on joy of wealth sharing and divine grace.
Thank you. PS: Datuk Tiah did share the wealth of TAE by adopted a dividend policy, which will pay the shareholders consistent yearly dividends ranging between 40% and 60% of the Group’s net realised profit (excluding TA Global Berhad Group’s Profit After Tax but including dividend receivable from TA Global Berhad for the same financial year) for that financial year.
Star paper reported that Tony has failed to privatise TA at 66 sen.
Most possible scenario now is TA share price will go up to cross Rm1.00 target
Last time Harrison Boss failed to take it private at Rm1.30. Harrison layer gone up 200% to reach Rm4.00
So for TA the longer we keep the higher only it can go up.
And along the way TA will be like Harrison with good yearly dividend supporting it all the way.
Why TA can give sustained dividends?
Answer:
The capex for building now over. Plus the Cash contribution from Hotel & Resort rental plus earnings from stock brokering can now be given out as regular dividends.
Yes, small players determine the share price today. Once the sell block 33007 lots @ 0.665 disappear, i have a reason to believe TA will start to trade above RM0.665.....For those who wanna quit mostly have sold, resistance become lesser and lesser.
Jackkin, the information stated in the offer document dated 20Aug2018, page 12, no.2.
No.2(i) The offer will remain open for acceptances until 5pm on 12 September 2018, which is the first closing date, or such later date as TA Securities may announce on behalf of the Offeror unless the Offeror withdraws the offer with the SC's written approval and in such event, all parties will be released from any obligation arising pursuant to the offer.
No.2(iii) If the offeror revises the offer after the posting date, the offer will remain open for acceptances for at least 14 days from the date the written notification of the revision is posted to holders. If the Offeror revises the terms of the offer, the offeror will make the benefits of the revised offer available to the accepting holders who have previously accepted the offer.
The offer shall not be revised after 5 October 2018, being the 46 day from the posting date.
Apparently, Offeror - Datuk Tiah withdraws the offer with the SC's written approval on 12Sept, which i think is good to all the majority shareholders which they no need to wait and worry about the price cant break 0.66 anymore. It is back to company fundamental and depends on the overall market sentiment now. Look at the small trading volume and closing price yesterday, it proved that small players had let go during the MGO period, but most of the big players still remain here as they look at the value of the company.
Here again, the TA share price did not crash yesterday. In the event that TA cant submit its quarterly report, then the share price confirmed crash.
Dear Jackkin, The important time-line as follow: Day T: Announcement of take over. T+21 (“D”): Last day to dispatch the offer document. D+10: Last day to circulate independent advice circular and company’s BOD comments on the takeover offer. D+21: Earliest day to close the offer. D+46: Last day for posting revised offer (if any). D+60: Takeover offer close if the acceptance condition (50%) is not fulfilled.
Datuk Tiah (offeror) have the choice whether to closed the offer at the earliest day D+21 or latest day D+60 with last day for posting revised offer (if any) D+46. It look like all this while Datuk Tiah only intend to increase his holding above 33% thus he chose the earliest closing date without revised offer even though independent adviser value TAE at RM 2.60 and the independent directors concur that the 66 cents offer price is unfair and unreasonable. Datuk Tiah must be very confident he is able to accumulate TAE slowly (2% at any rolling 6 months period) at lower cost to him from open market nor he is worry about losing the control of TAE from hostile take-over from third party. (Note: Datuk Tiah is forbidden from doing another TAE MGO for 1 year period)
So the only game plan left is for Calvintaneg and his Johor Sifus or institute investors making a hostile VGO and take over the control of TAE. So brother Calvintaneng we are now waiting for your next move. (Just make a VGO at better offer and I will sell all my TAE to you)
On the day of the closing of the MGO shareholders with 90 million shares accepted Tony's offer to buy at 0.66 but as Tony didn't achieve above 50% there 90 million shares were declined and is in the process of been returned to them. 90 million!
Looking back, there were two main outcomes of this mgo. 1. Datuk increase his shareholding from 32%+ to 38%+ 2. TA NTA went from $1.55/share to $2.60/share
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
