  • 29,428 applications chased just 14.2 million shares — RM1.4 billion of demand.
  • The RM20.48 million raise was small — a smaller offer inflates the oversubscription multiple.
  • SRKK AI is a Microsoft Cloud Solution Provider — first in Malaysia with all six AI partner badges.

The debut, and where it stands now

  • Market cap reached ~RM173 million at the debut close — nearly double the RM90.88 million IPO valuation.
  • Down just 6.6% from its debut close, seven weeks on — most of the pop has held.

How the RM20.48 million raised is being spent. Over a third goes into AI and security build-out, not just working capital or listing costs.
  • The bulk of the raise funds AI labs, a training academy and a security operations centre — not just marketing.
  • SRKK AI pays a minimum 20% dividend of profit — modest, for a stock trading on an AI story.
Watch out. AI-enabled work was only about 11% of FY2025 revenue (RM11.8 million) — most of SRKK AI's business today is conventional Microsoft cloud and IT services. The "AI stock" framing is partly a growth story, not today's revenue mix.
