Reducing the rights price forces an increase in the number of shares to be issued (3:1 rights issue with creation of additional 462x3 = 1386M Shares), further worsening the dilutional effect to existing shares EPS and Dividend yield.
@stocksmaster a worst case scenario of a 3:1 rights issue would bring a total issued share capital of 1.8billion shares..
With the current PAT sitting at 4billion the new EPS would be 2.22..
This will make the P/E 8.8 and the DPS of 1.5 can be maintained to give a yield of 7.6%..
Mind you when KQ acquires the fleet PAT will rise exponentially..
Im actually very bullish on KQ at these levels..
