SELOGA HOLDINGS: Proposes New Regularization Plan
Seloga Holdings Berhad has proposed a new regularization plan, which the company believes will regularize its financial position and address the Securities Commission's concerns, after it rejected the company's initial proposals on July 3, 2007.
The new regularization plans entails:
-- the proposed cancellation of MYR0.75 of the par value of each existing ordinary share of MYR1.00 each in the company on a date to be determined by the Board; and
-- the proposed renounceable rights issue of up to 80,478,006 new ordinary shares of MYR0.25 each in the company at a proposed issue price of MYR0.25 on the basis of three RI Shares for every five ordinary shares of MYR0.25 each in the company held after the Proposed Capital Cancellation.
Rationale for the new proposals
* Proposed Capital Cancellation
-- Assuming none of the outstanding ICULS are converted, the Proposed Capital Cancellation will reduce the consolidated accumulated losses of the company by approximately MYR87.68 million, thereby addressing one of SC's concern under the Initial Proposals that the company would still have substantial accumulated losses remaining post restructuring. Further, the Proposed Capital Cancellation is also expected to ensure that the company's consolidated shareholders' funds exceed 25% of its issued and paid-up share capital.
* Proposed Rights Issue
-- the issued and paid-up share capital of the company will be reduced to a minimum of MYR29.2 million after the Proposed Capital Cancellation. The Proposed Rights Issue will reinstate the Seloga's share capital to the minimum issued and paid-up share capital requirement of MYR40 mil. for companies listed on the Second Board of Bursa Securities ("Minimum Share Capital Requirement").
Upon completion of the New Proposals, the company's consolidated shareholders' funds is expected to increase to at least MYR43.63 million, based on the proforma consolidated balance sheet as at December 31, 2006:
(i) more than 25% of the enlarged issued and paid-up share capital of SHB; and
(ii) higher than the Minimum Share Capital Requirement: thereby regularizing the company's financial condition.
Upon completion of the New Proposals, Seloga will undertake the necessary actions to reclassify itself from being an affected listed issuer under Practice Note No. 17/2005 of the Listing Requirements of Bursa Securities.
