I was just looking at this one. They just acquired a profitable business in singapore and paid with it with 20 cent shares...which is significantly higher than the market price..

Now, I'm new to the share game but I figure this is a good way to get a valuation of a company but there might be another reason why they would buy higher than the market price....

Any input gratefully accepted...
