With 54% institutional ownership, MNRB Holdings Berhad (KLSE:MNRB) is a favorite amongst the big guns
Significantly high institutional ownership implies MNRB Holdings Berhad's stock price is sensitive to their trading actions Permodalan Nasional Berhad owns 54% of the company Insiders own 14% of MNRB Holdings Berhad A look at the shareholders of MNRB Holdings Berhad (KLSE:MNRB) can tell us which group is most powerful. We can see that institutions own the lion's share in the company with 54% ownership. In other words, the group stands to gain the most (or lose the most) from their investment into the company. Given the vast amount of money and research capacities at their disposal, institutional ownership tends to carry a lot of weight, especially with individual investors. As a result, a sizeable amount of institutional money invested in a firm is generally viewed as a positive attribute. In the chart below, we zoom in on the different ownership groups of MNRB Holdings Berhad. Check out our latest analysis for MNRB Holdings Berhad 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 MNRB Holdings Berhad does have institutional investors; and they hold a good portion of the company's stock. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. It is not uncommon to see a big share price drop if two large institutional investors try to sell out of a stock at the same time. So it is worth checking the past earnings trajectory of MNRB Holdings Berhad, (below). Of course, keep in mind that there are other factors to consider, too. Institutional investors own over 50% of the company, so together than can probably strongly influence board decisions. MNRB Holdings Berhad is not owned by hedge funds. The company's largest shareholder is Permodalan Nasional Berhad, with ownership of 54%. With such a huge stake in the ownership, we infer that they have significant control of the future of the company. For context, the second largest shareholder holds about 5.0% of the shares outstanding, followed by an ownership of 1.0% by the third-largest shareholder. While it makes sense to study institutional ownership data for a company, it also makes sense to study analyst sentiments to know which way the wind is blowing. There is some analyst coverage of the stock, but it could still become more well known, with time. While the precise definition of an insider can be subjective, almost everyone considers board members to be insiders. 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. It seems insiders own a significant proportion of MNRB Holdings Berhad. Insiders own RM228m worth of shares in the RM1.6b company. It is great to see insiders so invested in the business. It might be worth checking if those insiders have been buying recently. The general public, who are usually individual investors, hold a 29% stake in MNRB Holdings Berhad. This size of ownership, while considerable, may not be enough to change company policy if the decision is not in sync with other large shareholders. While it is well worth considering the different groups that own a company, there are other factors that are even more important.

MNRB Holdings Berhad's (KLSE:MNRB) investors will be pleased with their strong 162% return over the last five years
The most you can lose on any stock (assuming you don't use leverage) is 100% of your money. But on a lighter note, a good company can see its share price rise well over 100%. For example, the MNRB Holdings Berhad (KLSE:MNRB) share price has soared 120% in the last half decade. Most would be very happy with that. The last week saw the share price soften some 3.7%. So let's assess the underlying fundamentals over the last 5 years and see if they've moved in lock-step with shareholder returns. See our latest analysis for MNRB Holdings Berhad To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' One imperfect but simple way to consider how the market perception of a company has shifted is to compare the change in the earnings per share (EPS) with the share price movement. During five years of share price growth, MNRB Holdings Berhad achieved compound earnings per share (EPS) growth of 27% per year. This EPS growth is higher than the 17% average annual increase in the share price. So one could conclude that the broader market has become more cautious towards the stock. The reasonably low P/E ratio of 2.99 also suggests market apprehension. The company's earnings per share (over time) is depicted in the image below (click to see the exact numbers). It is of course excellent to see how MNRB Holdings Berhad has grown profits over the years, but the future is more important for shareholders. This free interactive report on MNRB Holdings Berhad's balance sheet strength is a great place to start, if you want to investigate the stock further. As well as measuring the share price return, investors should also consider the total shareholder return (TSR). The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. So for companies that pay a generous dividend, the TSR is often a lot higher than the share price return. In the case of MNRB Holdings Berhad, it has a TSR of 162% for the last 5 years. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned. This is largely a result of its dividend payments! It's good to see that MNRB Holdings Berhad has rewarded shareholders with a total shareholder return of 20% in the last twelve months. Of course, that includes the dividend. However, that falls short of the 21% TSR per annum it has made for shareholders, each year, over five years. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand MNRB Holdings Berhad better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 2 warning signs with MNRB Holdings Berhad (at least 1 which is potentially serious) , and understanding them should be part of your investment process. We will like MNRB Holdings Berhad better if we see some big insider buys. While we wait, check out this free list of undervalued stocks (mostly small caps) with considerable, recent, insider buying.
