For outlook, it said DXN's earnings growth will be supported by the relentless growth momentum in major markets. "The core strategies of recruiting new members and enhancing their productivity levels will continue to revolve around member engagement, complemented by quality new product launches. "Meanwhile, the recent capacity expansion should help capture the rising demand and roll out new product categories to broaden the addressable markets," it said. On top of that, it look forward to the results of the entry to Brazil, leveraging on DXN's established existing network in the Latin American region.

Insiders own 35% of DXN Holdings Bhd. (KLSE:DXN) shares but private companies control 48% of the company
DXN Holdings Bhd's significant private companies ownership suggests that the key decisions are influenced by shareholders from the larger public The top 2 shareholders own 58% of the company 35% of DXN Holdings Bhd is held by insiders We check all companies for important risks. See what we found for DXN Holdings Bhd in our free report. Every investor in DXN Holdings Bhd. (KLSE:DXN) should be aware of the most powerful shareholder groups. With 48% stake, private companies possess the maximum shares in the company. That is, the group stands to benefit the most if the stock rises (or lose the most if there is a downturn). Individual insiders, on the other hand, account for 35% of the company's stockholders. Large companies usually have institutions as shareholders, and we usually see insiders owning shares in smaller companies. Let's delve deeper into each type of owner of DXN Holdings Bhd, beginning with the chart below. Check out our latest analysis for DXN Holdings Bhd Institutional investors commonly compare their own returns to the returns of a commonly followed index. So they generally do consider buying larger companies that are included in the relevant benchmark index. We can see that DXN Holdings Bhd does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock. This can indicate that the company has a certain degree of credibility in the investment community. However, it is best to be wary of relying on the supposed validation that comes with institutional investors. They too, get it wrong sometimes. When multiple institutions own a stock, there's always a risk that they are in a 'crowded trade'. When such a trade goes wrong, multiple parties may compete to sell stock fast. This risk is higher in a company without a history of growth. You can see DXN Holdings Bhd's historic earnings and revenue below, but keep in mind there's always more to the story. Hedge funds don't have many shares in DXN Holdings Bhd. Our data shows that DXN Group Sdn. Bhd. is the largest shareholder with 38% of shares outstanding. In comparison, the second and third largest shareholders hold about 20% and 12% of the stock. Siow Lim, who is the third-largest shareholder, also happens to hold the title of Chairman of the Board. After doing some more digging, we found that the top 2 shareholders collectively control more than half of the company's shares, implying that they have considerable power to influence the company's decisions. While studying institutional ownership for a company can add value to your research, it is also a good practice to research analyst recommendations to get a deeper understand of a stock's expected performance. Quite a few analysts cover the stock, so you could look into forecast growth quite easily. The definition of company insiders can be subjective and does vary between jurisdictions. Our data reflects individual insiders, capturing board members at the very least. Company management run the business, but the CEO will answer to the board, even if he or she is a member of it. I generally consider insider ownership to be a good thing. However, on some occasions it makes it more difficult for other shareholders to hold the board accountable for decisions. Our most recent data indicates that insiders own a reasonable proportion of DXN Holdings Bhd.. It has a market capitalization of just RM2.4b, and insiders have RM853m worth of shares in their own names. It is great to see insiders so invested in the business. It might be worth checking if those insiders have been buying recently. With a 10% ownership, the general public, mostly comprising of individual investors, have some degree of sway over DXN Holdings Bhd. While this group can't necessarily call the shots, it can certainly have a real influence on how the company is run. Our data indicates that Private Companies hold 48%, of the company's shares. It's hard to draw any conclusions from this fact alone, so its worth looking into who owns those private companies. Sometimes insiders or other related parties have an interest in shares in a public company through a separate private company. While it is well worth considering the different groups that own a company, there are other factors that are even more important.
