We are currently reviewing CBP’s news release, and our US counsels are liaising with CBP’s representatives for sufficient information to meaningfully address the issuance of the recent finding.

The Company had earlier submitted a report dated 16 March 2021 prepared by independent international UK consultant, Impactt Limited (Impactt) to CBP for review as well as having taken all the necessary measures required by CBP to ensure all concerns are addressed. Since July 2020 Top Glove has engaged Impactt to advise on measures for improving its policies and practices.

    Monday, April 23, 2018 FBMKLCI: 1, 887.75 THIS REPORT IS STRICTLY FOR INTERNAL CIRCULATION ONLY* WWeeeekkllyy SSttrraatteeggyy Market View, News in Brief: Corporate, Economy, and Share Buybacks Kaladher Govindan Tel: +603-2167 9609 [email protected] www.taonline.com.my Market View FBMKLCI Could Undergo Healthy Consolidation The FTSE Bursa Malaysia Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (FBM KLCI) managed to push above 1,880 to challenge record highs last week, largely helped by a surge in heavyweight oil & gas counters as global oil markets firmed following top OPEC member Saudi Arabia’s outlook that prices may top USD100 a barrel, and fears the US may re-impose trade sanctions on Iran next month. However, profit-taking interest on small caps forced a pullback on Friday, given the absence of follow-through buying momentum ahead of the weekend. For the week, the local benchmark advanced another 19.28 points, or 1.03 percent to 1,887.75, with Petronas Dagangan (+RM2.12), Petronas Gas (+58sen), PPB Group (+52sen), Hong Leong Bank (+50sen) and HLFG (+38sen) dominating gains. Average daily traded volume and value retraced to 2.61 billion shares and RM2.33 billion last week, compared to the 3.32 billion shares and RM2.51 billion average respectively the previous week. At 1,896.03, the FBMKLCI almost surpassed the all-time high of 1896.23 last week before retreating. Although momentum indicators are showing profit taking bias in the immediate term, the healthy consolidation is necessary for the benchmark index to trend higher, especially immediately succeeding the 14 th GE, presuming there is no change in the power base.

  • Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia
    Asian Social Science; Vol. 12, No. 3; 2016 ISSN 1911-2017 E-ISSN 1911-2025 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Financial Hegemony, Diversification Strategies and the Firm Value of Top 30 FTSE Companies in Malaysia Wan Sallha Yusoff1, Mohd Fairuz Md. Salleh2, Azlina Ahmad2 & Norida Basnan2 1 School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, Malaysia 2 School of Accounting, Faculty of Economics and Management, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Malaysia Correspondence: Wan Sallha Yusoff, School of Business Innovation and Technopreneurship, Universiti Malaysia Perlis, Malaysia. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 8, 2015 Accepted: January 18, 2016 Online Published: February 23, 2016 doi:10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v12n3p14 Abstract This study investigates the relationships between financial hegemony groups, global diversification strategies and firm value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies listed in FTSE Bursa Malaysia Index Series during 2009 to 2012 period. We chose Malaysia as an ideal setting because the findings contribute to the phenomenon of the diversification–performance relationship in the Southeast Asian countries. We apply hegemony stability theory to explain the importance of financial hegemony groups in deciding international locations for operations. By using panel data analysis, we find that financial hegemony groups are significantly important in international location decisions. Results reveal that the stability of financial hegemony in BRICS and G7 groups enhances the financial value of the Malaysia’s 30 largest companies, whereas the stability of financial hegemony in ASEAN groups is able to enhance the non-financial value of the firms.

  • Executive Summary
    BM056-3-5.2-FMGT Individual Assignment Asian Pacific University EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This documentation provides two companies within Bursa Malaysia (KLSE), representing two different sectors. Astro Holdings Berhad is a leading integrated consumer media entertainment group and is classified under the trading and serve sector. Sunway Berhad is engaged in two businesses: property and construction and is classified under the infrastructure sector. Both companies financial sources/resource are obtained from Bank loans and shareholders. In addition, Astro and Sunway Berhad have a significant amount of debt however, Astro has a reduced debt amount as compared to Sunway, with Astro sitting on RM3671 million while Sunway sits on RM2.33 billion. Astro’s debt profile is categorized into three (3) main contributors; USD term loan, RM term loan and Finance lease. It seems that Astro and Sunway have different challenges that are being faced. Astro’s operating expenses will peak in FY14 as the company focuses on reinvesting for growth. On the other hand, Sunway’s Group’s balance sheet is expected to weaken further as it gears up for property development and to build up its investment properties portfolio.
