Tama Quin Ltd., a company manufacturing pharmaceutical drugs is about to make a new issue of 400,000 shares of Sh. 40 each at the current market price of Sh. 50 each.
The prospectus states: 'The company has just patented the manufacture of a drug that cures malaria.'
Jacob White, the managing director of the company is interviewed on television and he states that the news to be released shortly will demonstrate a great break-through in the control of malaria. He also stated that the company was the only one with modern technical knowledge of this great invention. As a result there is over-subscription of the shares.
Allan, who has not read the prospectus, applied for shares and is allotted 2000 at the price of Sh. 50 each.
Betty, who read the prospectus, is not allotted any shares but buys 3000 shares at the stock exchange at Sh. 60 per share.
Charles, who read the report of the interview in the national newspaper, bought 5000 shares at the stock exchange at Sh. 55 per share.
In the meantime, the patents are found not to be original and are revoked. The shares fall in value to Sh. 10 per share.
David who owned 10,000 shares in the company long before the new issue is disappointed as he believes the publicity has caused the shares to fall in price (value).
