Based on circumstantial evidence, I feel something has to happen this month, coz LOLC is the 3rd most respected conglomerate, and Ishara wouldn't want main companies to continue faltering and being moved to lower boards like this..

They are not in Watch list but 2nd Board.

They are not in Watch list but 2nd Board. I think they can stay there any longer now.. No need of de-listing...

If delisting they will have to pay atleast 2.5 times the NAV. Thats around 13 Rs

Are u sure ? Pls explain..If NAV is higher than market price, paying NAV should be enough, i think...

Lofc will be fire instead of lolc

Any sudden change to fire LOFC ?
Can you please explain.

LOFC had been transfered to Watch List on Nov 7 2018, But now stays in the second Board. Can they transfer between Boards without a disclosure ? Also why they have not given minimum public holding notice after Oct 7 ? They have been disclsong tis every month.. What is the rule ??

Its look like SEC is out of control now

Lofc now in sri Lanka price index. Wow

LOFC.N is a Gem at current price, I was holding this for 6 Months now, close to 1 Mn shares @ a WA cost of 3.75.
2020 will be LOFC's year, wait & see the new developments in the company.
This will hit 5.50+ within few months.

Consider following scenarios for your valuations.

01. De-listing, Possibility 10.00% - After Govt change & considering the amount of Public Deposits they have this will not happen.

02. Banking License, Possibility 90.00% - Reason mentioned for selling Cambodian firm ( Prasac ) is " Prasac is too big to operate as a Finance Company " ( Balance sheet size - 300 Bn LKR ).
     Mr.Nanyakkara's opinion is Rs. 300 Bn+ is too high to operate as a Finance company, And remember LOFC.N was requesting a Banking license from Year 2014 & it was under discussion till 2015.
But after the change of regime they were unable to go ahead.
But now again they are in a hurry to get a Banking License & after merging ( NIFL.N ) few other FC's with LOFC.N ( May be troubled one's like BFN ). And also they will put be able inject cash to LOFC.N after selling prasac.
If they get the Banking License they will sell their stake at price above LKR.12.00.
( Remember recently they bought 2 Bn + rights in 02 occasions / again create huge profits to LOLC.N ).

03. Sell 25.00% + to public & get out from minimum public holding issue - 50.00% Possibility - As a company in S&P 20 list / 3rd Biggest conglomerate / Biggest Finance Company, they will not like to be in the Second Board of CSE.
selling price will be over Rs. 4.65 ( Recent Rights issue price )

After the change of Govt im more bullish on LOFC.N because of the 2nd reason , Obtaining a Banking license will be a super news for Share Holders if things go in right way.

If you guys have any other idea about these please share with all.

Cheers.

I didnt revise my target i revised the time line. Now its later than sooner.

Hi Teller, If they delay this long, market price may go up... Can they hold onto price without selling some shares at current prices ???

Actually LOFC should be promoted as a private SME bank. They are experts with Micro loans and specially with Women..Infact they are doing a good service to the Country silently...

Yep, They will get a Bankin License very soon.
Wait and see.
This is Ishara's Govt.

Datz what u know, most of da companies in Micro credit lending in higher rates to da poor women in rural sector which put them in deep credit trap , ultimately they get suicide , its recorded that over 70 women committed suicide coz of being in credit trap, they do da same, sucking da blood of the poor. So da said development is jst a myth ..

Sorry friend...Infact the exact opposite happens. Banks Dont lend to these poor people because they cant afford valuable security and also their Overheads are high. But Micro Credit Institutions like LOFC is doing a great thing by building good relationships with Villagers and giving them Loans without security also at much better rates than "GINIPOLEE" mafia. I guess rates are good as 20%. But if they take from GINIPOLEE man, it is almost 100%. Many people suicide due to them not LOFC like ethical lenders. Infact many lives have been saved due to them.....

LOFC mtcro credit model is becoming an Internationally acclaimed. They are in many countries now.. Their strength seem to be giving loans to women groups who are usually less able to go out and obtain loans like men and also more trustworthy.. 

Lets appreciate LOLC group for the work,  though they dont pay dividends to us....

As i see in the rural sector, women take loans for consumption not for any small scale enterprises etc , and these companies issue the loans without any security regarless of their development plans and just for their profitability. so its a disaster.. you go and ask the women these what change they have made by utilizing these loan schems.... and i bet u the rates are over 40% if any one lending below that in rural micro credit schems OMG tell me also , even some companies issue at the rate of over 200 %.. its a pathetic situation here in SL.

Do you recommend LOFC..

@Sajeewa Niranja
Tellers recommendation was there, he has changed his timeframe only.
But my personnel view is you must study the share well before investing.
Holding - LOFC.N

මේ වන විටත් banking ලයිසන් එක ලැබී ඇති බවට විශ්වාස කටයුතු ආරංචි මාර්ග පවසයි සමහරවිට ලබන අවුරුද්දේ වැඩිම profit කරන කොටස  හැක

PRASAC Deal finalized, LOLC.N will get 350 Mn USD ( LKR 63 Bn ), Distribution of this cash will decide the growth of LOFC.N.
They will pump huge amount of capital to LOFC.N, this is the secret behind LOFC.N price controlling.
May be another Rights issue at Rs.4.65+, Amount may be 10 Bn +.
all these will happen before they convert this to a Bank.

Deal done - 603M USD

HOW MUCH THE CAPITAL GAIN ??? PER SHARE ?

Is LOFC trading suspended ???
