Following the IPO with the final offering price per share of 34 baht, the Company remains confident of its potential as the world's third largest producer and distributor of rubber gloves, the high growth in performance and the overall high demand for rubber gloves both before and after the outbreak of COVID-19. All these factors would help to attract the investors' interest in STGT.
Subsequent to its listing on the SET, the Company plans to continuously expand production capacity, from 32,619 million pieces per year from 3 production facilities as of March 31st, 2020 to more than 50,000 million pieces per year by 2024 and 70,000 million pieces by 2028 to eventually reach approximately 100,000 million pieces per year by 2032, to fulfill the increasing global demand.

Mr. Varah Sucharitakul, Executive Director of Finansa Securities, STGT's financial advisor and lead underwriter, said that STGT was the first IPO on the Stock Exchange of Thailand post-COVID-19. It is considered the largest domestic IPO deal in Thailand's capital market history. STGT's IPO has attracted the interest of both retail and institutional investors given STGT's strong business potential and status as one of the world's top rubber gloves producers. STGT's products have been exported to more than 140 countries around the word. Moreover, the outbreak of COVID-19 has led to unprecedented global awareness of health and hygiene and STGT's products can help prevent against infection through physical contact. In addition, STGT has a strong competitive advantage in raw material procurement, supported by Sri Trang Agro-Industry Public Company Limited (STA), the world's largest integrated producer and distributor of natural latex and major shareholder, and production facilities that are located in strategic rubber plantation areas.
The overall picture of the historical global demand for rubber gloves has clearly shown a continuous growth even before the outbreak of COVID-19. The Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association (MARGMA) estimated that global demand for rubber gloves reached approximately 300,000 million pieces in 2019, representing an annual growth rate of 12.2 percent since 2016, when demand was approximately 212,000 million pieces on the back of the expansion of the medical sector and growing demand from various industries. This clearly indicates STGT's strong growth potential.
