SHARE BUY BACK STATEMENT IN RELATION TO THE PROPOSED RENEWEL OF SHARE BUY BACK AUTHORITY

  1. INTRODUCTION
    At the Twentieth Annual General Meeting held on 17 June 2022, the Shareholders of the Company approved, inter alia, the Proposed Share Buy Back. The Share Buy Back Authority from Shareholders and the said mandate shall, in accordance with the Main Listing Requirements, expire at the conclusion of the forthcoming AGM, unless authority for its renewal is obtained.
    On 27 February 2023, the Board of Directors of the Company announced the Company's intention to seek a renewal of its shareholders' authorisation for the Proposed Share Buy-Back at the forthcoming AGM.
    The purpose of this statement is to provide you with the details of the Proposed Share Buy Back and to seek your approval for the Ordinary Resolution on the Proposed Share Buy Back to be tabled at the forthcoming AGM which will be held on 8 December 2023.
  2. PROPOSED SHARE BUY BACK
    Your Directors seek shareholders' approval to purchase up to ten per centum (10%) of the Company's number of issued shares subject to compliance with the provision of the Act, the Main Listing Requirements and/or any other relevant authorities. The actual number of Shares to be purchased, the total amount of funds to be utilized as well as the timing of the Proposed Share Buy Back will be dependent on the market conditions, sentiments at the Bursa Securities, the availability of the retained profits as well as the financial resources available to YNHP Group.
    All Shares to be bought back by the Company may be retained as Treasury Shares of the Company or cancelled upon purchase or a combination of both. In the event that the shares to be bought back by the Company are retained as Treasury Shares, the Company may distribute the Treasury Shares as dividend to the shareholders of YNHP or resell the Treasury Shares on the Bursa Securities. The decision of the Board on the above options will be made at appropriate time.
    The authorization for the Proposed Share Buy Back will be effective immediately upon the passing of the Ordinary Resolution on the Proposed Share Buy Back at the forthcoming AGM until the earlier of:-
    1. the conclusion of the next AGM of the Company at which time the authority shall lapse unless by ordinary resolution passed at a general meeting, the authority is renewed either unconditionally or subject to conditions;
    2. the expiration of the period within which the next AGM after that date is required by law to be held; and
    3. revoked or varied by ordinary resolution of the shareholders of the Company at a general meeting.

In accordance with the Listing Requirements, the Proposed Share Buy Back must be made wholly out of retained profits of the Company. The maximum amount of funds to be utilised for the Proposed Share Buy Back will be subject to the retained profits of the Company. Based on the Company's latest audited financial statements as at 30 June 2023, the accumulated losses of the Company was RM93,316,335.

2

The Proposed Share Buy Back is expected to be mainly financed by internally generated funds of the Group. In the event that the Company intends to purchase its own shares using borrowings, the Board will ensure that the Company shall have sufficient funds to repay the borrowings and that the repayment will not adversely affect the operations and cash flows of the Company. In addition, the Board will ensure that the Company satisfies the solvency test as stated in the Section 112(2) of the Act before execution of the Proposed Share Buy Back.

The Proposed Share Buy Back is likely to reduce the working capital and cash flow of the Company, the quantum of which depends on the purchase price and the actual number of Shares purchased. However, it is not expected to have a material effect on the working capital and cash flow of its subsidiaries.

The Proposed Share Buy Back shall be executed at purchase prices not exceeding 15% above the weighted average market price of the Shares for the previous five (5) Market Days immediately prior to the purchase. The Treasury Shares arising from the Proposed Share Buy Back shall be resold at prices not less than the weighted average market price of the Shares for the previous five (5) Market Days immediately prior to the resale.

The Treasury Shares so bought back pursuant to Proposed Share Buy Back shall not be entitled to any of the right attached to the existing Shares of the Company as to voting, dividends and participation in other distribution and otherwise are suspended.

The aforesaid Treasury Shares shall not be taken into account in calculating the number or percentage of Shares or of a class of shares in the Company for any purpose including, without limiting the generality of this provision, the provisions of any law or requirement of the Constitution of the Company or the Main Market Listing Requirements on substantial shareholdings, takeover, notices, the requisitioning of meetings, the quorum for a meeting and the results of a vote on a resolution at a meeting.

3. RATIONALE AND ADVANTAGE FOR THE PROPOSED SHARE BUY BACK

The Proposed Share Buy Back if exercised, is expected to potentially benefit the Company and its shareholders as follows:

  • The Company would expect to enhance the EPS of the Group (in the case where the Directors resolve to cancel the Shares so purchased and/or retain the Shares in treasury and the Treasury Shares are not subsequently resold) as the Shares purchased are not taken into account when calculating the number of shares in the Company. The increase in EPS, if any, arising from the
    Proposed Share Buy Back may have a positive effect on the market price of the Company's
    Shares. Therefore, long term and genuine investors are expected to enjoy a corresponding increase in the value of their investments in the Company;
  • If the Shares bought back are kept as Treasury Shares, it will give the Directors an option to sell the Shares so purchased at a higher price and therefore make an exceptional gain for the Company. Alternatively, the Shares so purchased can be distributed as share dividend to shareholders; and
  • The Company may be able to reduce any unwarranted volatility of its Shares and assist to stabilize the supply, demand and price of its Shares in the open market and thereby supporting its fundamental value of its Shares.

The Proposed Share Buy Back is not expected to have any potential material disadvantage to the Company and its shareholders as it will be exercised only after in-depth consideration of the financial resources of the YNHP Group and of the resultant impact on its shareholders. The Directors in exercising any decision on the Proposed Share Buy Back will be mindful of the interest of the Company and its shareholders.

  1. POTENTIAL DISADVANTAGE OF THE PROPOSED SHARE BUY BACK
    The Proposed Share Buy Back will, however temporarily reduce the financial resources of the Group and consequently, may result in the Group foregoing better investment opportunities that may emerge in the future. It may also result in a lower amount of cash reserves available for dividends to be declared to shareholders as funds are utilized to purchase Shares. In the light of the abovementioned, the Board will consider the interest of the Company and also the interest of the shareholders when undertaking the Proposed Share Buy Back.
    However, the disadvantage is mitigated by the prospect that the financial resources of the Group may increase, if the purchased Shares held as Treasury Shares are resold at prices higher than their purchase price.
  2. EFFECTS OF THE PROPOSED SHARE BUY BACK
    5.1 Share Capital
    The Proposed Share Buy Back will have no effect on the number of issued shares of the
    Company if the Shares to be bought back by the Company are retained as Treasury Shares or re-sell in the open market.
    For illustration purposes and assuming ten per centum (10%) of the number of issued shares of the Company as at 18 October 2023, are purchased and entirely cancelled, the Proposed Share
    Buy Back will have the following effects on the share capital of the Company:-

  1. NA
    The Proposed Share Buy Back may increase or decrease the NA per share of the Company depending on the purchase price in comparison to the NA per share of the Company at the time that the purchase is made.
    However, it is likely that the Proposed Share Buy Back will reduce the working capital of the Company, with the quantum depending on the purchase prices of the Company's Shares and the actual number of shares bought back.
  2. EPS
    Depending on the number of Shares purchased and the purchase prices of the Shares, the Proposed Share Buy Back may increase the earnings per share of the Company. Similarly, on the assumption that the Shares so purchased are treated as Treasury Shares, the extent of the effect on earnings of the Company will depend on the actual selling prices, the number of Treasury Shares resold and the effective gain or interest savings arising.
