When Generali purchased 49% of MPHBCAP Insurance business , MPHBCAP granted a 3 years call option to increase further 21% and a 5 years Put Option for Generali to resell the 49% of MPHBCAP insurance business to MPHBCAP if the Call Option failed to executed.
As a probation to the Put Option , MPHBCAP need to keep the fund to repay Generali when the Put Option executed. In the Put Option , stated clearly the calculation of the redeem price ( adjustment ) where MPHBCAP increases the amount over time from cash in hand
As the EGM is about the disposal of 51% of Insurance holding , should they provide the break down of the utilization of the proceed of 518.16MM only or everything about the company ?
My view was that the breakdown of the utilization of proceed is fair which address the rewards to the shareholders , to address PN1 status ( no core business after disposal of insurance business ) , working capital and repayment of debt.
After this , only dealing with the remaining of cash and asset post disposal
I strongly believe those significant holder of MPHBCAP will vote for the resolution. As if the EGM fail , will back to square one. No dividend..continue waiting as the company has no fund to develop the property and still under the scrutiny of BNM
I think the best interest for minority shareholders is the completion of disposal of insurance business and tranfer to property division. No matter what the management propose in the future , it won't be worst than today
I started to invest in MPHBCAP since spin off from Magnum through capital repayment. I sold off all Magnum stock after completed the exercise then switched MPHBCAP and temporary parked at REIT for dividend when the price above 2. Recently I switched back to MPHBCAP in 2019 berring that Generali will not exercise the Put Option and ready to take advantage of the proceed from the 49% disposal.
@Opportunate, I agree that for the purpose of the forthcoming EGM they only need to address on the proposed utilization of the RM508 million disposal proceeds. Still the amount held in the Nomura i-income Fund at around RM460 million is substantial and the question remains whether they will distribute all or some as dividends as they don't need it anymore if EGM approves the disposal of the insurance unit.
I think for the remaining RM480MM , question should be raise during coming AGM. I'm expecting during AGM , they will provide an update of their plan for this , included how to unlock the value
What they will do with the remaining cash in hand of RM480MM
Distribute a portion as dividend ? M&A - acquisition or investing in property development company like BRDB which took private in 2013. Will BRDB going for IPO again ? I'm checking on BRDB as seem like MPHBCAP engaged with them in the past in JV projects to unlock the value of the land ? A portion as working capital ?
I personally don’t like the Management not being upfront on the use of total disposal proceeds in MPI totaling $508+360 millions. Proceeds from the land disposal in earlier years totaling $340 million has not been addressed too.! They should at least proposed to distribute to shareholder all of the $508 mil being the disposal proceeds from the 51% MPI . The disposal proceeds in earlier years from 49% MPI and land totaling $360 +340 =$700 mil can be addressed in AGM. And $700 mil is a huge sum for investment, working capital etc!
That leads me to think that the management is evasive and the most likely outcome is for SU to take 100% control of all assets worths $billions by utilizing the balance of the assets disposal proceeds after the 45sen distribution. The balance proceeds add up to about $866 millions.
now it makes perfect sense! everything falls into place. the major shareholders ie insiders did not push up before the announcement nor after the announcment of the sale because they already know dividend so so only. so obvious now. was wondering why mphbcap up sooooo little only despite the good news of the sale.
aiyah if insiders didn't push up before the sale news or during the sale news, what makes u think insiders will push up after the dividend news. so obvious now. was wondering last time why why why mphbcap didn't do up much after the sale news out. now it is clear
@speakup, Favco 85 sen is dividend sure in pocket without having to get approval. Mphb’s 45sen is still subject to many approvals yet to be completed and conditional to completion of insurance sales . There is difference and investors want certainty.

@theContrarian
Here is my understanding about the Nomura fund
When Generali purchased 49% of MPHBCAP Insurance business , MPHBCAP granted a 3 years call option to increase further 21% and a 5 years Put Option for Generali to resell the 49% of MPHBCAP insurance business to MPHBCAP if the Call Option failed to executed.
As a probation to the Put Option , MPHBCAP need to keep the fund to repay Generali when the Put Option executed.
In the Put Option , stated clearly the calculation of the redeem price ( adjustment ) where MPHBCAP increases the amount over time from cash in hand
