tumbled after trade resumed Tuesday on news that controlling shareholder Lembaga Tabung Angkatan Tentera (LTAT) has aborted a plan to buy out minority shareholders and take the company private.
The decision came eight months after LTAT, which owns a 59.4% stake in Boustead, announced that it was planning to delist the company.
Boustead group managing director Datuk Seri Mohammed Shazalli Ramly said both parties have decided to focus on Boustead’s strategies to rejuvenate the group. It has stakes in several listed entities. It has controlling interest in 65% owned Boustead Heavy Industries Corp
and 56% in Covid-19 vaccine-maker Pharmaniaga Bhd
