In my view, KW is a solid small cap with a proactive management. Management is always on the lookout to invest for shareholder value and this makes this stock quite special. I started buying KW at about 20 cts and still vested.
King wan result is out.
Should expect another round of dividen on Nov.
Impressive result with good profit.

after tax attributable to equity holders to S$25.9 million for the three months ended 30 June

The significant increase in net profit was mainly contributed by the one-time gain derived from

achieved in 1Q2014.
