If you check all the China frauds it is astonishing how all the same NEDs seem to crop up....

Was that by accident ? Did they share out these roles ? Who contacted them to be NEDs ? Was there a specialist recruitment agency involved ?

brwo - the NEDs did visit the AFG operations in Shandong province, and they reported a large physical infrastructure, branded products etc. They certainly believed there was a a real business here. But maybe you are right and they were cleverly deceived into thinking there was a much larger business than in fact exists.

According to the web-site - last updated 7/8/2017...

Corporate Governance
The UK Corporate Governance Code, which was updated in September 2014 (with effect from financial years commencing after 1 October 2014), applies only to companies on the Official List and not to companies admitted to AIM. However, the Existing Directors and the Proposed Directors recognise the importance of sound corporate governance and intend that the Company will observe the requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code and the QCA Guidelines to the extent they consider appropriate in light of the Company's size, stage of development and resources. The Company will review this arrangement as the Company develops.

The Company will hold regular Board meetings throughout the year at which reports relating to the Group's operations, together with financial reports, will be considered. The Board is responsible for formulating, approving and reviewing the Group's strategy, budgets, major items of expenditure and senior personnel appointments. Pursuant to the Articles (further details of which are set out in paragraph 8 of Part V of this Admission Document), the non-executive director designated by resolution of the Board as senior non-executive director shall have a second or casting vote at Board meetings. Jonathan Quirk is the Company's Senior Non-executive Director.

The Company will establish the following committees of the Board with formally delegated duties and responsibilities:

Audit Committee

The audit committee comprises of Richard Sweet, Mircle Yap Ching Chai and is chaired by Jonathan Quirk.

The committee will receive and review reports from management and from the auditor relating to the interim and annual accounts and to the system of internal financial control. The audit committee will be responsible for making recommendations to the Board on the appointment of the auditor and for approving the terms of engagement and remuneration of the auditor.

The audit committee will also review reports from management and the Company's auditor on the financial accounts and internal control systems used throughout the Group.

Remuneration Committee

The remuneration committee comprises of Jonathan Quirk, Dr. Wang Shaodong, Mircle Yap Ching Chai and is chaired by Richard Sweet. The role of the remuneration committee will be to determine and agree with the Board the framework or broad policy for the remuneration of the Directors and such other members of the executive management of the Group as the remuneration committee considers appropriate. This will be done within the terms of the agreed policy, and in consultation with the Chairman as appropriate, to determine the total individual remuneration package of each executive director and other senior executives including bonuses, incentive payments and share options or other share awards, in all cases with due regard to the interests of Shareholders.

The remuneration committee will also be responsible for reviewing the design of all share incentive plans for approval by the Board and, if required, Shareholders. For any such plans, the remuneration committee will determine each year whether awards will be made, and if so, the overall amount of such awards, the individual awards to executive directors and other senior executives and the performance targets to be used. In determining such remuneration packages and arrangements, due regard will be given to any relevant legal requirements, the provisions and recommendations in the AIM Rules and the QCA Guidelines.

Nomination Committee

The nomination committee comprises of Jonathan Quirk, Richard Sweet, Mircle Yap Ching Chai and is chaired by Dr. Wang Shaodong. The role of the nomination committee will be to assist the Board in discharging its responsibilities relating to the composition and make-up of the Board. The nomination committee will be responsible for evaluating the balance of skills, knowledge and experience of the Board, the size, structure and composition of the Board, retirements and appointments of additional and replacement directors and making appropriate recommendations to the Board on such matters.

AIM Compliance Committee

The AIM compliance committee comprises Dr. Wang Shaodong, Mircle Yap Ching Chai, Li Xianzhi and is chaired by Jonathan Quirk. The role of the AIM compliance committee will be to ensure that the Company has in place sufficient procedures, resources and controls to enable it to comply with the AIM Rules for Companies. It is intended that the AIM compliance committee will make recommendations to the Board and proactively liaise with the Company's nominated adviser on compliance with the AIM Rules. The AIM compliance committee will also monitor the Company's procedures to approve any share dealings by directors or employees in accordance with the Company's share dealing policy and ensure such dealings are notified to the Company's nominated advisor in accordance with the AIM Rules for Companies.

For Po Ling. I think when people see an a vacancy for a role - most people do not look at the company share price and other publicly available info, well not in depth. We as investors would probably do just that before applying for the job. Or she saw what we saw but the remuneration package was big enough to take a gamble and it would work out.

I gave Po the benefit of the doubt and I thought she could turn the boat around, but she hasn't been able to. No reason was given for the resignation and no CEO "we wish her the best in her future endeavours" usual spiel.

(I didn't invest)

Indeed, brwo, I posted some weeks ago the two non-execs, Sweet and Yap, had overseen catastrophic destruction of shareholder wealth in other companies, and that Yap was being economical with the truth in claiming he had a masters degree. No response. WCC share price collapsing some months after Po Ling left, amid concerns about accounting methods. Faith unshaken.

The repeated AIM flotation of dubious Chinese companies is just another example of gross failure of regulation - Camkids, Naibu, China Chaintek, etc etc.

Stirrup - it's definitely tempting to top up here, despite the big spread and despite the lack of news. But I think I think I'll wait to see details of the final dividend, even if that means paying more per share. It's not so much because of the actual GBP involved in the dividend. I'm concerned that if the company slashes the final divi (in the way they did with the interim divi) then credibility in the company won't improve, nor will liquidity and the share price will go on lingering at these current ultra-cheap levels, where the market cap in about a quarter of the cash on the balance sheet.

If they pay a decent final dividend and state that they intend to go on doing this, then I think the share price could do quite well. A return to the IPO level would be a rise of about 5x.

I heard that AFG's NOMAD and the UK auditors are off to Yantai this month to take a look at AFG's operations. That seems positive. If AFG are paying for the NOMAD and auditors to visit them, that suggests a continuing commitment to a UK listing.

I'm sure we won't get the Finals until that visit has taken place, so that means end of May/beginning of June.

If the board decides to hold the final dividend at last year's level of 0.7p then we should see a decent rise in the share price. But whether they will do that is anyone's guess. I think they will probably reduce to 0.5p. At the current share price that would be total yield of about 6%.

PE of only 1.3Millions in the bankProfitableDividend payingSafe established Chinese firm in trusted province. No debt Small float of around 20%Many shares held by directors and family Director options ranging from 25-50pCFO ex PWCShould re rate to a more realistic PE of 5 taking into account risk. Based on figures given in Nov this would put the share price over 60pDividend well covered and set to increase again. Cash on 30th Sept 2016 was £51m equating to a further 45p per share. No reason based on earnings and cash why £1 per share shouldn't be a more realistic share price if you could rid the company of the reputation some Chinese firms have inflicted on others.

Amazing share price rise today at Haike (HAIK) another Chinese AIM-listed stock. Up about 100% as I type, taking its market cap from £5m to around £10m.

If AFG can produce a decent Q4 trading statement it would be nice to think something similar could happen here. Perhaps not quite so dramatic. But perhaps the market cap could move from the current £15m to something more sensible like £25m.

AFG is in many ways more investable than Haike. It's a bigger company, with a turnover almost twice Haike's. Haike's unaudited profit for 2015 is about £2m, whereas AFG should do something closer to £10m.

A re-rating here is imminent, I think.

Caradog - no problem. It's nice to see that someone else is taking an interest in this totally unloved stock. But I suppose it's not surprising that the remaining Chinese companies on AIM are still unloved, given the series of disasters and frauds in 2015 (with Naibu, Camkids etc).

Although AFG mainly sells frozen fish I think they also sell some fresh fish, but I don't know what the proportion is. Someone asked that question at the AGM. I don't remember the answer.

Hopefully we will see the AFG share price doing well in 2017. It's possible the company will take on a broker and try to give it a bit of a push later this year. The UK-based NEDs said they advised the board that any attempt to do that in 2016 would be a waste of time and effort. I'm sure that was the correct advice. But with a strong new CFO in place, and calmer views towards Chinese companies beginning to be heard, a marketing push might work better now. But the company would need to suggest a better divi, I think.

We should see the full year results a bit earlier this year, maybe in March or April. The AGM might get moved forward to June. Perhaps the Chinese execs will visit then as part of the marketing push.

We should see the Q4 trading statement around the end of Jan/ beginning of Feb. Nothing much is going to happpen till then. I'm tempted to add, but already have quite a big holding, after regular buying through 2016.
