Hemas to raise over Rs. 4.1 bn. through rights issue

Hemas Holdings PLC, a diversified conglomerate quoted on the Colombo Stock Exchange is seeking a cash infusion of over Rs. 4.1 billion through a rights issue of nearly 57.3 million new shares to be issued in proportion of one new share for every nine held at a price of Rs. 72 per shares.

Very smart move by the owning family.
bring in Enderby, get confidence of Foreign Investors, drive up share by over 100 %, come up with pricey rights to fund future development and then last step ? sell their rights  totally approx 55 million share rights @ ......? or at least partly maybe.  

i will bet that the owners will not take up their  (Rights) entitlement and will choose to sell their rights. may have lined up potential buyers.

so you kill 3 birds with one stone.

a. company gets cash for development / settling debts.
b. owners get some chips off the table at good price / value.
c. share liquidity is enhanced.

win win win ?!

If they are actually thinking like you they are smart.

HHL was one of the most boring shares during 2010/2011. Now they have made up (maybe too much)

This share was heavily recommended by one of the highly reputed broker firm which generally deal with most foreign accounts. When I ask my broker Y do u recommend at this high price, he said its valuation is quiet low compared to other diversified holdings.. When I check its valuation it looks like highly over valued than JKH. Simply broker gut along with management support made this company to fly this high. One of heavily over price rights in the mkt....
