Penny stock KBC Global will trade ex-bonus this week as the company has fixed April 4 as the record date for its bonus share issue in the ratio of 1:1.
KBC Global's board, at its meeting held on March 22, approved the bonus share allotment. The 1:1 bonus issue ratio implies that investors will receive one share at no additional cost for each share held by them. Earlier, the record date fixed by the company was March 28, which it later moved to April 4. The record date determines the shareholders eligible to receive the said bonus shares.
According to the T+1 settlement system, investors need to purchase the shares of the company at least one day before the record date for their names to appear on the company's books. Therefore, April 3 is the last day when investors can purchase shares of penny stock KBC Global to be eligible for bonus share allotment.
Prior to this, the company had announced a bonus share issue in 2021 in a 4:1 ratio, with the record date fixed as August 2021.
