Stock options and bonuses to entice SP Setia’s top staff
PETALING JAYA: Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB) may be paying out lucrative bonuses and stock options to property developer SP Setia Bhd’s top management staff in order to persuade them to stay on with the company following an offer by PNB to increase its stake in the property developer.
A source with knowledge of the proposed arrangement told StarBiz that this would involve the payout of hefty bonuses and attractive stock options aimed at ensuring the management team stay put.
There had been fears expressed earlier that PNB’s move to take control of SP Setia might lead to an exodus of the company’s management staff.
The company had received an attached press notice from Maybank Investment Bank Bhd on behalf of PNB last Friday informing it “that PNB, Tan Sri Liew Kee Sin and SP Setia are proposing to enter into an agreement to formalise the incentives and management rights relating to the management and general conduct of the business of SP Setia group of companies subject to the approval of the Securities Commission (SC).”
Maybank Investment Bank said in a follow-up announcement to the stock exchange that the application for the proposed arrangement between the parties was submitted to the SC yesterday.
It said the “despatch of the offer document is subject to the SC’s decision on the proposed arrangement as well as the SC’s clearance of the offer document.”
As of Nov 25, PNB held a direct 14.42% stake in the company and an indirect 20.04% stake via Skim Amanah Saham Bumiputera while Liew held 10.88% stake.
SP Setia’s shares have held steady in the range of RM3.85 to RM3.89 since PNB and parties acting in concert made the conditional offer in late September at RM3.90 per share and 91 sen per warrant.
