This baby has been on a run this yr. Probably expecting good 1st qtr results. nevertheless it is no more cheap by any measure. Trailing PE of 36. Looking forward to their coming AGM. Don't understand the scrip div scheme when you declare such a small div. It won't save that much cash and cause a lot of extra paperwork and odd lots.

Not playing the forex game is my word since the Chairwoman emphasised a few times that they are naturally hedge.

the succession is already in the works with the daughter as the CEO and the son as finance director. Both are pretty capable and down to earth hard working people. My gut feel is that they really are not looking for the exit but then again if someone throws in a ridiculous high offer price they are prepared to put this to the shareholders to decide. this is why I think it is fair to OPMI.

One more question that did came up was why didn't HMI offer to buy out the Mahkota partner as the Minority Interest for HMI is very high. The answer was that they are reluctant to sell out either. the other party wants to continue to partner with HMI. In my opinion why should they as it is printing lots of cash for them.

Hi Jacmar

I was wondering if the CEO and the Finance Director are related   You answered my question

They took over the Asset Co which had leased the Mahkota Medical Centre so that to supposedly save  on rental. I don't actually follow this stock but what do you think led to the restructuring?

But I do agree that being a family biz it is more difficult to extract dividend out cause they are already paid by the company

OPMI voted No (86%) for reso 9 (authority to issue ESOS and PSP) in recent agm.

I am seeing such a thing for the 1st time. Anyone encounter before?

It's rare as the majority owners always voted for just like all the other resolutions. Sigh. I am one of those that ALWAYS voted against stock options. I voted against it this time too. I would prefer that the co issue restricted stock instead of options to reward mgt staffs. Reason is because I want mgt to have a skin in it. With options it cost them nothing if the co tanks. Another thing that irks me is options given to top mgt who are SSH. How it is it going to motivate them is beyond my comprehension.
