Suddenly someone snap up @ 0.006 the last minute. Any reason?

Even worst when shares can trade at $0.001

The expected losses for 9M2015 arose mainly from the consolidated share of results Trikomsel.
Trikomsel has on 30 October 2015 released it unaudited interim consolidated financial statements for
the financial period ended 30 September 2015. Trikomsel&rsquo s operating performance for the nine
months ended 30 September 2015 has declined due to continued weakening consumer sentiment in
Indonesia, the depreciation of the Rupiah against the US dollar, challenges in procuring new product
supply and reductions in gross margins for mobile phones.
The profit warning is based on a preliminary review of the unaudited financial results of the Group.
Further details of the Group&rsquo s financial performance will be disclosed when the Company announces its
financial year ending 31 December 2015 results which will be no later than 1 March 2016.
The Board confirms that the Company is independently operated from Trikomsel. The Company has
not provided any corporate guarantee nor has any of its directors provided any personal guarantees
for the financial indebtedness of Trikomsel. The major shareholders namely Tres Maria Capital Ltd.
has not provided any share pledges in the shares of the Company to secure any financing for the
Company. There are no cross default events that are triggered by the Company arising from the
financial defaults of Trikomsel as the financial obligations of the Company are independent from
Trikomsel.
The Group will continue to strengthen its regional retail and distribution expansion plans by further
penetrating into developing markets such as Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines and Thailand and exercise
financial prudence, while developing the targeted growth areas. The Group will also remain cautious of its
outlook for the remaining financial year.
The Company will continue to keep its shareholders updated of any further material developments in
Trikomsel. Copies of the Announcements are available on the SGX-ST website at www.sgx.com.
In the meantime, shareholders of the Company are advised to refrain from taking any action in
respect of their shares in the Company which may be prejudicial to their interests, and to exercise

Polaris is quite a large company with many businesses.   Currently due to its recent investment into the Trikomsel play and lost money, it affects its NAV owing to heavy loss of Trikomsel., Probably it is just book loss for Polaris but could make back if Polaris itself makes good profits. I have sold earlier, but will look for opp to buy back.

UPDATE: Trikomsel plans bondholder call on Friday
SINGAPORE, Nov 4 (IFR) - Indonesian telecom company Trikomsel will hold a second
bondholder meeting this Friday via a conference call.
Trikomsel said in a statement last evening that the meeting was to offer an
update on the company' s debt position and ability to make payments as they fall
due, the current status of discussions with creditors, the formation of a
noteholder steering committee, discussion of its September 30 financial results
and recent developments.
Noteholders of the S$115m 5.25% bonds due May 2016 and S$100m 7.875% notes due
June 2017 have to register for the call by tomorrow.
Trikomsel had announced in late October that it was planning a formal standstill
on its bank loans and bonds following the disclosure that it was not in a
position to meet debt obligations.
The issuer is scheduled to make coupon payments on November 10 on its 2016 bond
and on December 5 on the 2017 issue.
FTI Consulting is advising on Trikomsel' s debt restructuring plans.
ya ,same question ,it' s still 1800 ,last price was 1750 ..
debt problem is not a sudden case ,polaris management knew the situation long time ago I think
why they did not   issue right at 2c at that time ,get some money to help trikomsel
now the price droped to 0.008 ,the right issue got gone case.the company let the share price drop ,it' s better call the halt .

Anyone can explain why trikomsel stock did not drop but Polaris drop so much?
maybe the U-turn point is about 0.005.
They have too much shares to unload...
I think those indo big share holder are cashing out their holding in this company as they need cash.
Must wait till they offload most of it before thinking of going in again.
=)

I jump ship to informatics instead.
Didn' t expect indon news came out of sudden and have such a big impact on this share.
May come in when it is more stable.
Unlikely halt as business still goes on as retailer in SG.
Apple Premium Reseller
Lenovo Outlets
Singtel Outlets
Sony Centres
Will start to worry if those shop closed overnight. =.=!
its overdone, at this point if you haven' t yet sold off .. its better to hold.
this is the time to go in, jout my thoughts only 
treetops
you' re selling this GEM of yours? 
can share if you think this one will be halt soon coz of the dropping prices? no chance for recover?!
Cut huge lost! Sob sob...
