FFS share price should recover well after the
rights issue.Those who have lost shareholder value to date can only regain it by
taking up their rights, otherwise the value loss will be permanent as it passes
to other shareholders & to Rubicon in its subunderwriter role.
Something similar happened with NZ Petroleum Ltd in
1998, when a severe cash issue wiped out most shareholders & made a fortune
for Eric Watson's Malibu Holdings, the underwriter.I think FFS shareholders
should try to find the money, somehow.
Its difficult to pick a bottom, but FFS is close to
the 38c it reached during the Asian crisis & trading now at 4.5 times 2000
earnings (with interest capitalised).
