Come to think of it, IPO may be $1.06. Ever since SGX change website format and GIL changed from their former name/s, lost track how to check past history liow

Yes. SGX has always been user-unfriendly in that the documents under the old company name are not connected to the documents under the new company name, so the user has to figure it out himself. And now with StockFacts it is worse. :s22:

Fortunately their corporate website has the old documents. Yup, $1.06.

I would steer clear of this stock, my dad has a 90% loss on this. He heart pain everything he mention this stock. :(
precisely because he made a loss due to stock price go down, the price is cheap, the risk is low, that's why the downed stock can be a good one to buy!! :s13::s13::s13::o

It's not useful.

Everybody want low risk high returns etc...
Those are as nonsense as I go buy bet $1 on toto, low risk high returns.

0 value added. Spamming is spamming.

I presume he bought it before the GFC?

Yup, think he got "attracted" in by the huge dividend. Only heard abt it after price dropped to 10% of that is used to. Heart pain and expensive lesson learned!

Wahkao3 - u laugh at my dad's heart pain, not nice leh.

I see, thanks for the info. Quite painful I must say. However, from what I read earlier in the thread, it seems that now this company had undergone a new management transformation, so I guess it won't be that bad going forward.

I am looking at this counter, seeing that it is trading below its NAV and having a very low debt. Its business model is like an investment holding company, similar to K1 Ventures.
