I hope i have explained the facts succinctly and clearly..I can explain again if anybody is not sure..
But again i repeat- the 0.41 cents in US dollars was taken in the context of 25th january and was taken as an assumption to explain the share buy back..
roughly they will offer how much .. CIMB still recently give it a fair value of $0.71 considering the fact of share buy back..... LMA should offer to buy back at IPO price mah...
haiih... well, I just now, maybe u buy LMA, the chances is higher than striking the hongbao TOTO, that's all..
Pls note the highlighted excerpts..
0.410 price is an assumption taken from the backdrop of 25th january and incorporating a 105% maximum price limit as set out in the resolution proposed
ACTUAL price is dependent on ACTUAL PRICE of shares transacted five days prior to the buy back taken as an average..
Hope everyone is clear..

Why you so like dat?... :)
a) it will rise
b) it will trade sideways and
c) it will fall
We need to consider the possibilities... :)
victort, just buy and don't ask why? wow... I want to know before I invest in any counters... it sounds like you must be buying a lot today then...
Do they say when they will do the share buyback? anytime from now?
For everyones info, the sharebuy back price is not determined from the dates as set forth by kawaiiboy..
As specified in the sharebuy back proposal Resolution 3 part c..
The sharebuyback will be done at a maximum price with a maximum limit. The maximum price is defined as 105% of the preceding average 5 days price the share buyback was executed by the company NOT any other dates. Maximum limit is 10% of total shares issued. Company cannot exceed dat amount in buying back.
Therefore if company buys share on a certain date they will calculate the average price of the 5 days before dat and put the maximum price at 105%..
I am highlighting this point so that investors dun get misleaded..pls refer to resolution 3 of the EGM and it will be clearly highlighted..and if anybody in doubt pls consult your broker or financial advisors or anybody who knows the mumbo jumbo..
Just trying to do my part to help..cheers..
Since the knowledge is already discounted in the price, the current price reflects the moment's reality. But this does not itself reflect the stock's trend.
Unravelling the trend is the head-scrastching part of the game.
isn't that a good price to enter now, knowing that theyu will buy back at most US$0.41?
