What does a 1-for-4 bonus issue mean for my holdings?

You receive one new share for every four you own, at no cost. Your total number of shares rises, but your ownership percentage stays the same. Value usually remains similar at the open because the price adjusts. You do not need to pay or submit forms; brokers typically credit the shares automatically.

Will the Ever Glory bonus issue dilute my stake or earnings?

Your percentage ownership does not change, so your stake is not diluted. Earnings per share may look lower because there are more shares, but your claim on total earnings is unchanged. The company’s market value should remain similar at the ex-bonus open, although trading can move it.

How do I qualify for the bonus shares on SGX?

Buy before the stock goes ex-bonus and hold through the record date. On the ex-bonus date, new buyers no longer receive entitlement. Check SGX announcements and your broker’s notices for the confirmed timeline. Once processed, the new shares will be credited to your account without any cash payment.

How might the share price move after the bonus issue?

At the ex-bonus open, the price typically scales down based on the 1-for-4 ratio, while total value stays about the same. After that, supply and demand drive moves. Expect higher volumes near key dates. Short-term volatility can occur, but fundamentals and execution guide long-term performance.
