BLand surges to two-year high

Berjaya Land Bhd’s (BLand) share price surged to a two-year high of RM4.45 yesterday after it reported a strong set of earnings and announced a corporate exercise.

It rose 38 sen to RM4.45 with 684,100 shares done. The share price was the highest since Aug 6, 2008.

The company had on Wednesday announced a net profit of RM72.07 million for the fourth quarter ended April 30, 2010, a turnaround from a net loss of RM49.53 million a year ago.
Revenue rose 16.3% to RM1.13 billion from RM971.67 million, mainly due to a three-fold increase in property sales from several mixed development and residential projects.

It also proposed a one-into-two share split where each RM1 share would be divided into two 50 sen shares. It also proposed a bonus issue of up to 2.51 billion new subdivided shares on a one-for-one basis.
