Let's analyze together or any expert able to ease our explanation.
Reference is made to ABRIC’s announcement dated 18 January 2016 (“Initial Announcement”) whereby AmInvestment Bank Berhad (“AmInvestment Bank”) had, on behalf of the Board of Directors of ABRIC (“Board”), announced that the Company proposes to undertake a cash distribution of RM0.43 for every ABRIC Share, to be implemented in the following manner:
From here, we can see that for every ABRIC share a cash distribution is given which is RM 0.43. As your concern Angie, I totally agree that it is impossible to digest it as the share price now is more than cash distribution.
or it could be this way.
Proposed Distribution Distribution amount per ABRIC Share Proposed Capital Repayment RM0.29 Proposed Special Dividend RM0.14 RM0.43
A special dividend is given which are 0.14 for every 0.30 value share. So, just multiple it with the amount of Rm0.40.
Directors want to 'reward' themselves with a substantial fees rise for tomorrow AGM despite doing nothing much resulting in Abric incurring a loss in FY2015. If Minority Shareholders can't prevent this tomorrow, hope the Minority Shareholders Watchdog Group can look into this matters.
Gone thru the annual report for 2015. 3 EDs are to take home 2.931 mil from the total 3.075mil or 95.3% but the company made losses 2.024mil for the same year.
Group loss for FY15 RM2,024,403, Directors remuneration RM3,480,746. Group profit for FY14 RM68,770,762, Directors remuneration RM2,050,840. On what ground is the justification for the substantial increase (>69%) in directors remuneration when the company's financial performance had instead fallen off a cliff ?
Well will be getting 0.45x5000 units in early Aug'16 as mentioned in y'day Circular for EGM to be held 12May16. Others waiting for assets disposal which may take some time.
current price50.5-45.0(capital return)=5.5 to use additional cost of 5.5 to get back the balance (assuming 61.0(NTA per share)-50.5=10.5) your return=90%,very good margin?? please advise
All resolutions has been approved in EGM. Now, we wait for the company to announce distribution date. After the capital & dividend distribution exercise, Abric will be delisted. We park 6 cents (51-.45 ) there to wait for final distribution between 1 or 2 years to earn profit more than 100%.
All resolution passed. Waiting for the 45s distribution. With that, We would be using 6s, for potential return of 15s to 16s. Time taken could be rather long, one to two years. Risk is practically zero.
Abric play will not entitled us to three digits return but it should be a good arbitrage play at current mkt.we should focus on stocks with clear exit timing or stocks that cost us with limited capital outflow to enable us to pass thru the super bear period.obviously,Abric is one of them.cheers
The assets left after capital repayment and special dividend will be the 3 properties (valued at 15.3 million ; page 6 of the circular ) and some cash reserves (Net assets 0.16 after the proposals ; page 9 of the circular) . If they liquidate at much lower price for those properties, you can call Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate the family for selling the properties at below market value! :)
yes, in a nutshell, your shareholding in any de-listed company will still be protected by law (company act 1965). it is still there. the main difference is that you cant sell/liquidate your shares to the public on bursa trading platform after de-listing. you are holding a private company shares. you will still be entitle to any dividend if any. if you need to liquidate your shares, you need to find a private buyer or ask the company buy back from you.
let's say you bought the share at 0.50 per share. the company is returning 90% of your capital back to you (0.45). You just need to park 0.05 of your capital to invest in a company that has net asset value of 0.16 (mainly the 3 properties and cash). you have to wait for the boss to liquidate/sell those properties and crystallize those properties investment.
Dear Markus, thank you very much for your good explanation. atleast now i wont be too worried of not getting back the money. But it seems that we need to wait long to have the refund plus some capital gain..
Delisting of abric whether compliance is made under Para 16.06(1) of the listing requirements
Para 16.06 says A listed issuer may not request to withdraw its listing from the official List unless (a) convenes a general meeting - Done (b) Passing of proper resolutions for the withdrawal - Done (c) offer a reasonable cash alternative or other reasonable alternative (exit offer) - ??? (d) appoint independent adviser to advise and made recommendations for consideration of shareholders on delisting /fairness & reasonableness of exit offer - ???
To my knowledge, conditions (c) and (d) are not met yet. If bursa is to allow delisting, affairs of Abric will then be subject solely to rules & regulations of companies Act. Company affairs will likely be less transparent. Minority shareholders may not like it. It is my wish that the corporate surveillance undertaken by Bursa will ensure that all residual assets are fairly and equitably accounted for prior to the delisting, though to let Abric remains suspended.
The remaining assets seems to carry quite substantial in value. For that reason, the regulator must ensure these assets are not siphoned or disappear into thin by the majority shareholders and/or senior management staff. The minority interests shall have to be preserved that any assets disposal must be ring fenced or placed in an escrow account to be operated by independent outfit(s)..failing which our investment is as good as 'write off'...
agree- all recent quarters incurred losses and watch out for inappropriate directors/management fees. so we should call and ask when will be our captial refund ?
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....
