Ok found it, is to do with the current rights offer.

The rights are tradable until the 18th.

Glad you asked, Alex;
Most of us "grew up" with those acronyms and no longer think about it, oblivious to the puzzlement of newbies.

FPO = Fully Paid Ordinary (shares)
RTS = Rights, which are a kind of option, usually given to shareholders of a company, which entitle the holder to buy a limited number of additional shares. Such rights can be either renounceable, in which case they're given their own code consisting of the mother stock's code (PAN) and the suffix "R", or non-renounceable. The former variety may be sold - for a limited time, in PANR's case, expiring on the 18th of April - transferring the right to a willing buyer.
The latter can NOT be transferred, and if the original holder doesn't exercise the right, it lapses.

A quick Google of Share Abbreviations and Acronyms got me to this site:

I hope that helps you.

Wow thanks so much for helping me really appreciate your wisdom.

So to just confirm last question ,
what your saying is:

it's similar to an option. But does it still operate like a normal stock? or will it expire and not be able to sell before April? And when does a buyer have to exercise his right on this stock ( before April? )?
If one was to purchase this and sell at their own time would this be a problem?



Thank-you very much for helping me, I appreciate it.

This is how you research the basics:
http://www.asx.com.au/asx/markets/equityPrices.do?by=asxCodes&asxCodes=pan+panr

shows that PAN is currently trading @11cps (cents per share)
The rights trade at 0.2c, which makes sense because you will still have to pay 10c in order to convert each PANR into a fully-paid PAN share. As there is no guarantee that PAN will continue to trade at 11c or more, investors would think twice before buying the right much higher.

The details of the Rights Issue were laid out in this announcement:
http://www.asx.com.au/asx/statistics/displayAnnouncement.do?display=pdf&idsId=01726731

That tells you that you can buy or sell PANR until April 18th; whoever owns the PANR from that day on can no longer sell the right, but has only two options: Use it or lose it.
Use it means, pay 10c per exercised right by Closing Date (26 April 5pm) to be allotted the same number of PAN shares. Or do nothing, keep your money and do not receive any new PAN shares.

Simple, really
