&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style&gt;As you can see, it is quite difficult to get a meaningful allocation unless you apply 500 lots (outlay of $125k) of which you then receive 5 lots. Anything less than 500 lots, you get only 1 or 2 lots and the chance of getting it is quite low anyway and can&amp;#39;t possibly cover the brokerage unless the IPO opens strongly.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div style&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style&gt;I didn&amp;#39;t apply so no &amp;quot;IPO results&amp;quot; to show you.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Asian Pay Television Trust ("APTT" or the "Company") finally launched its IPO at a price slightly higher than the mid-point range of $0.97. (The offering range was between $0.92 to $1.00). My preview post is &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2013/05/asian-pay-television-trust-preview-aptt.html" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and the link to prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/e25d3309aa11eacd48256f64000f86d1/8D4CD48BB369D77848257B6D00388923/$File/1.3.1%20Prospectus%20(16.05.13).pdf" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. The IPO will end on 27 May 12pm and will start trading on 29 May at 2pm.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The share offering is as follows:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- &amp;nbsp;Up to 866m units will be via placement&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- &amp;nbsp;70m units for a public offering. The market cap based on the IPO price is approximately $1.4 billion.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
According to news report, the book was about 3x subscribed and given that this is a large float, you can say that it is pretty "impressive". &amp;nbsp;APTT is offering up to 936,164,086 units at $0.97 each and up to 1,008,004,086 units if over-allotment option is exercised. It is the first listed business trust in Asia focused on pay TV business. Frankly, you have to "credit" Singapore for coming up with the Business Trust regime or else this company won't be able to list here as most regulations require distributions to be made out of profits rather than cash flows. As such, asset heavy companies will find it attractive to monetize their assets via the business trust way (remember Hutchinson Port Holdings?)&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
APTT intends to distribute 100% of is Distributable Cash Flows and its mandate is to own, operate and maintain mature, cash generative Pay TV and Broadband Business in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan and Singapore. As such it is technically possible for APTT &amp;nbsp;to acquire Starhub Pay TV and Broadband services in Singapore (i am not saying it is going to happen).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Taiwan Broadband Communications Group ("TBC Group")&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XMYf58Ke5Rc/UZiERja-fbI/AAAAAAAAEV8/e6NRi2NlTT0/s1600/image-729899.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879594750633213362" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XMYf58Ke5Rc/UZiERja-fbI/AAAAAAAAEV8/e6NRi2NlTT0/s320/image-729899.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
TBC is the seed asset which is going to be acquired by APTT. TBC group is the no.3 cable TV player in Taiwan with 15% of the market share as of Dec 2012. TBC offers 3 different types of services.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Franchise Area and Subscribers&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ucKheqcx4QI/UZiERzV48sI/AAAAAAAAEWE/mPDXBHgT3M4/s1600/image-731267.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879594754906845890" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ucKheqcx4QI/UZiERzV48sI/AAAAAAAAEWE/mPDXBHgT3M4/s320/image-731267.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
As of 31 Dec 12, TBC has 751k basic cable TV users, 110,324 premium user and 175k broadband users. What is missing here is "triple play" where mobile, broadband and cable tv are bundled as a packaging (such as our Starhub "hubbing"). It is more of a "double play" of broadband and cable TV. As the infrastructure are "sunk costs", the company will make increasing marginal revenue as the subscriber base grow bigger. The good news is that the company has shown its ability to grow the base, but the not so good news is that the Average Revenue Per User ("ARPU") has been falling. Please refer to table below.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

This is how the structure looks like. It is not quite simple structure and personally, i have a natural dislike for complex structure but it is probably for some taxation reasons.&lt;/div&gt;

You can see that the price which IPO investors are paying is for the "intangible asset" of $2.2b. According to the prospectus, the intangible asset is the Cable TV license to operate which is renewable every 9 years at "no significant cost" and if there is "no breach" of conditions under the license. There is no amortisation charge against this asset as it has "indefinite" useful life. IPO investors do take note of this intangible asset which you are buying into, which is the "promise" to pay you a stream of cash flows.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial Performance&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Not exactly a pretty sight. The Company has been making losses each year but somehow the Company has been able to pay out the dividends annually to the tune of $89m in 2012. It is probably a cashflow generating company if we strip out the depreciation and the interest expenses. Let's look at the pro-forma Profit and Loss statement below.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

The pro-forma EPS is 1.86c and that translate into a whopping 50x PER if you want to use that metrics. The Company also made forecasts for FY2013 and FY2014, which is to show investors the "money". &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The forecast for FY2014 is higher because there will be no extraordinary costs to the tune of $72m (see the cash flow projection below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The table below reconciled what is available for distributions to unit holders.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;

&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;
&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;EV/EBITDA&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Not sure if i have computed wrongly, i still cannot understand why i need to pay a mulitple of 13x to acquire this company using the pro-forma 2012 balance sheet and income statement. This is very expensive and considering that it is made up of intangible assets with a lot of bank debt. In the event that interest rate rises in future, the distributions will be adversely affected.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Cornerstone investors&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Cornerstone investors are taking in about 32% of the company. They are a mixture of traditional (Prudential and Lion Global) and Hedge Funds (Neuberger Berman, OZ Master Fund (same as the one in STX OSV or Vard) and Quantum (Soros Family). I am not sure what they see in this company that i am "missing". Perhaps they see something that i don't.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Distribution Yield&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-11d_pz7yY0I/UZiESr09eaI/AAAAAAAAEWc/478z3pnXQvA/s1600/image-734784.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879594770069551522" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-11d_pz7yY0I/UZiESr09eaI/AAAAAAAAEWc/478z3pnXQvA/s320/image-734784.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
APTT has a forecast distribution yield of 7.5% for FY2013 and 8.5% for FY2014. Distributions will be made twice a year and the first distribution will be for the period from Listing Date to 30 June 2013. Distributions will be made within 100 days post the end of each period.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;My thoughts about this transaction&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
This is a case whereby new IPO investors are buying off the stake of an older block of investors (shareholders of MIIF). MIIF is currently a listed entity on SGX and is winding down its operations after its board decide to divest all remaining assets and return the money to shareholders.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I have not been following MIIF so I am not so sure what is so "proud" to be associated with the sponsor, Macquarie, since it is because of them that shareholders of MIIF was in this situation. The stock has under-performed since its listing and i am not a fan of MIIF. Shareholders of MIIF are asking if they should request for cash or units in APPT and my question back is would you still want to continue investing with the sponsor or take this opportunity to get out? Probably i will elect cash if i am a shareholder of MIIF.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
MIIF still have a large exposure to APTT post IPO and this transaction is to allow them to trigger out of the market post listing.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Large float&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The list above is the recent IPO listing sorted by the public tranche available from shareinvestor (i think the data for Perennial is wrong).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
APTT is issuing such a large float (public and placement) that all investors who wants an exposure will probably get it. The large public share offering of 70m is also one of the highest in recent times. If you apply for the public tranche, there is a high chance of you getting it and in a "meaningful" way. I think it will probably be the IPO that ends the Singapore IPO window by sucking up all the liquidity.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;What I like about the Company&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Recurring business of cable TV and Broadband is pretty stable and everyone needs a connection to TV and Internet nowadays.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Increasing distribution yield projected from 7.5% in FY2013 to 8.5% in FY2014&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;My Concerns&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;This is a competitive industry in Taiwan and price competition can get messy and this will affect the distributions. I am not sure of the legal dynamics governing this industry in Taiwan either.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Highly leveraged company (67%) and an increase in interest rate will affect this company in future. Don't assume this low interest rate environment is going to last forever.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;IPO investors are buying in a intangible asset (Cable TV license) and paying a high EBITDA multiple for this.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The Sponsors only own 3% of APTT after the IPO and yet continue to receive management fees and performance fees. I am not sure if the interest is truly aligned.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The float is way too big and there is enough demand to make everyone happy, which means upside potential is probably limited.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I think 7.5% in FY2013 is too low for an infrastructure asset. Private equity investors into infrastructure funds will demand a higher return than this.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Post IPO, MIIF will continue to hold a significant chunk (to the tune of 525,866,849 units if all MIIF shareholders elect to receive cash) and this will cause a huge overhang on the share price as they need to divest those shares in order to be delisted from SGX (and i don't think they are subject to any lock up since investors who elect to receive units will not be subject to lock up).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Conclusion&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I don't know how to appreciate this company and will leave it to investors (such as the cornerstone) who knows how to better appreciate it. I will give it a "chopped chilli rating" but unfortunately, i will probably be vested with some shares from my broker. ^_^&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VPi0gmOH970/UZbzcew6DII/AAAAAAAAEVI/pGB3ixOarwM/s1600/image-717484.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="126" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879154034198842498" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-VPi0gmOH970/UZbzcew6DII/AAAAAAAAEVI/pGB3ixOarwM/s400/image-717484.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I never like the construction sector because the revenue and profitability is rather lumpy even though this Company has been able to show increasing revenue and profitability. As of FY 2012, the revenue was $213m and the net profit was $22m. To be honest, i have no idea if this profit level is able to be sustained for FY2013 and FY2014. Perhaps more enlightened readers can shed some light.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZQwcvayCDc/UZbzdUQijnI/AAAAAAAAEVQ/O0EIJYFxJP4/s1600/image-721597.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="185" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879154048558599794" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-6ZQwcvayCDc/UZbzdUQijnI/AAAAAAAAEVQ/O0EIJYFxJP4/s400/image-721597.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vKsaYZ3pEbE/UZbzeTU54CI/AAAAAAAAEVg/0Zv1eRRl94M/s1600/image-725377.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="111" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5879154065488338978" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-vKsaYZ3pEbE/UZbzeTU54CI/AAAAAAAAEVg/0Zv1eRRl94M/s400/image-725377.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Business projects are the "significant contributor" to the revenue line but the gross margins are in my views, too low and there is no room for errors.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The EPS for FY2012 adjusting for new shares is around Singapore 3.3 cents and that translate into a listing PER of around 7.6x. &amp;nbsp;The NAV post IPO is around 8.6 cents, hence investors who are coming in at IPO price, please be aware as the price to book is around 2.9x. I am not sure why the Company couldn't include the pro-forma bonus under the service agreement in the FY2012 results.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The market cap of the Company is $166m based on the IPO price and public shareholders will hold 25% post IPO and the Company intends to pay out at least 25% of it net profit from Listing Date till 31 Dec 2013 and at least 25% of its net profit after tax for FY2014. Assuming the EPS is maintained, it will imply a yield of approximately 3.3% based on the IPO price (3.3c x 25% divide by 25c).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;What i like about the Company&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A1 graded company and the ability to provide comprehensive suite of construction services with proven track record&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Playing up IPO story with a "Myanmar angle" with 2 contracts there. Yoma was "chased up" recently due to its Myanmar connection.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The promise to pay out 25% of its net profits as dividends for FY2013 and FY2014 but what i don't understand is why limited to only from listing date to 31 Dec 2013 for FY2013? Can't they just pay out based on the full year profits?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Founder who contributes back to society. He was recently featured in the Sunday Times. You can read the article &lt;a href="http://www.valuebuddies.com/thread-2854-post-50173.html#pid50173"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;My concerns&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I never like the construction sector. A lot of opportunities for dubious practices. Poh Lian construction, a wholly-owned subsidiary of United Fiber System Limited, was recently placed under judicial management due to mis-management of funds and poor contractual deals. The news is &lt;a href="http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/business/singapore/poh-lian-construction-placed-under-judic/628708.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Considering that Singapore is having a construction boom for the last few years, this is quite sobering.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The revenue and profits are always lumpy and difficult to predict and suffers from low margins.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Myanmar is probably the "last frontier" but the concern is that this is a un-chartered territory and the company may not be able to do well there and this strategy may back-fire.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The owners have already made one round of money 'delisting' the company a few years back. Now they are back with a revised structure but do investors know how to appreciate Soilbuild better now? There have been a list of companies doing a relisting here, &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2010/11/amtek-engineering-ltd.html"&gt;Amtek&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/courts-asia-limited.html"&gt;Courts&lt;/a&gt;, etc. The performance post IPO has been mixed.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Arms length transactions between the parent company and Soildbuild.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tight labor market and increasing material costs will eat into the margins if the Company is unable to project its costs properly.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Valuation and fair value&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
As mentioned above, i have no idea if the profit level for FY2012 will be maintained. In this regard, i will just use the audited FY2012 profit level as a "gauge". The peers should include the likes of Chip Eng Seng, Koh Bros and Lian Beng.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
According to shareinvestor, as of 18 May 2013,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Chip Eng Seng is trading at a PER of 6.1x, dividend yield of 5.2%, Price to Book of 1.02x and has a market cap of $499m.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Koh Bros is trading at a PER of 7.3x, no dividend and a price to book of 0.7x and has a market cap of $143m&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Lian Beng is trading at a PER of 5.3x, dividend yield of 1.9%, price to book of 1.1x and has a market cap of $278m.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
As such, i see no compelling reasons to buy into Soilbuild. It is actually quite expensive if i use a Price to Book ratio. Investors might as well put their money into Chip Eng Seng which offers a better value proposition if they want such an industry exposure. However, having said that, the current IPO market and the sentiment is "hot" and the low price of $0.25 will probably mean that investors can "hit and run" but the low public float probably means it is very difficult to get meaningful shares anyway so i will probably give it a miss.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;I will give it a 1.5 chillis for IPO punt and a 1 chilli for the longer term.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
APTT lodged its preliminary prospectus and is currently doing book building for its IPO.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
My broker from DBS sent me the book building term sheet and here are the key terms.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Offering size - 1,393,696,000 units.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Cornerstone - &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;451,068,000 units. (about 31.4% of offering size)&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Placement tranche - 917,628,000 units&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Public offering - not less than 25m units.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Book building price range - $0.92 to $1.00 per unit&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Distribution yield - FY2013 8.93% to 9.71%&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;- FY2014 8.25% to 8.97%&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Cornerstone investors:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Asian Century Quest&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Capital Research and Management&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Eastspring Investments (part of Prudential)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Indus Capital&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lion Global Investors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Neuberger Berman&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Och Ziff&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Signature Global Advisors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quantum Partners (Soros)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The book building will close on May 15 and after the price is set, the public offer will start on 17 May and ends on 27 May. The pricing will give you a hint as to whether the demand for the stock is "strong". I am not sure if there are other special incentives given to the cornerstone investors but we shall see. In any case, i am not 'impressed' with this list of cornerstone. It has the smell of too many "hedge funds" and they are certainly not value investors.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Mr IPO's biased view&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I have to tell you upfront that i am biased against the pay TV business in Taiwan. There is only one word to describe it - messy and cut throat. There are many players who want to get in the market only to realize how competitive and cut throat the business is and by being the No.3 player in Taiwan, i frankly don't see what so great about this business. If MIIF has been able to sell it, they would have sold it long time ago rather than "repackaging it" and selling to yield hungry investors now.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financials&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V-AMX5KgQXI/UY9VrCsn0EI/AAAAAAAAETw/mV9YU0XBv_k/s1600/image-775509.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="261" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5877010236688552002" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V-AMX5KgQXI/UY9VrCsn0EI/AAAAAAAAETw/mV9YU0XBv_k/s400/image-775509.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Let's look at the financials. Without reading the prospectus in detail, I am not sure how much the IPO proceeds will be used to "wipe out" the long term debt of the company which will then lower the interest and finance costs. I also don't understand why in taiwan, they have to pay such huge tax expenses which is even higher than the profit before tax. Again, i have not read the prospectus in details so i am just shooting off my cuff.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Proforma Statements&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The pro-forma statements "looked somewhat different" as it has assumed the issuance of units to have taken place and in using the latest "In-thing" Chinese phrase “&lt;span style="color: #5e5e5e; font-family: Arial,Tahoma,Verdana; font-size: 16px; line-height: 35.1875px;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.yolosg.com/2013/05/Malaysia-Elections-Blackout.html"&gt;停电魔术&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;” the financials suddenly looked profitable and attractive.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qk5Vgs33vkQ/UY9VrQYKWnI/AAAAAAAAET8/Iud9TFTUVTo/s1600/image-777622.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5877010240360831602" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qk5Vgs33vkQ/UY9VrQYKWnI/AAAAAAAAET8/Iud9TFTUVTo/s400/image-777622.png" width="375" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Whatever it is, the majority of the proceeds will be used to pay off the original shareholder and not much will be used to pay down the debt. In the addition, i think the large number of units in issue will probably "cap" the upside.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Let's see if my biased views will change in the coming weeks. I will not give you my ratings and fair value for now. Please check back this blog again when the IPO is officially launched. ^_^ &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

The balloting results is out and the results announcement is &lt;a href="http://info.sgx.com/webcoranncatth.nsf/VwAttachments/Att_38C32C17C878298148257B66003434EE/$file/Balloting_Announcement.pdf?openelement"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
This issue is very hot whereby the placement tranche of 207.6m units is 19.7x subscribed and the public tranche of 21.5m units is 48.8x subscribed.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The balloting results as follows:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
There is only one word to describe. The less you apply, the better the chance of getting some shares. hahaha.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mr IPO's balloting results&lt;/u&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I receive 4 lots from the placement tranche and &lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;zero&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt; shares from my public application!! :(&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PslR5vysfpk/UYbY5sGi2PI/AAAAAAAAEPU/UgcN-Lk2Cg8/s1600/Croesus1.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="78" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PslR5vysfpk/UYbY5sGi2PI/AAAAAAAAEPU/UgcN-Lk2Cg8/s200/Croesus1.png" width="200" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
CRT is offering 229.118m Units at $0.93 per unit for an IPO on the Singapore Exchange. The prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/e25d3309aa11eacd48256f64000f86d1/7C2E889231E3E7C448257B5F0026D247/$File/Final%20Prospectus%20(02.05.13)%20(clean).pdf" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
It is the first retail business trust with properties in Japan to be listed in Singapore. The IPO will close on 8 May 2013 12pm and be listed on 10 May 2013 at 2pm. 207.613m will be for placement and 21.505m for the public.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Business Trusts Versus REITs&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
CRT is offered under the business trust structure. While previously i have been cautious on business trust structures, i think my perception has since "improve slightly" as there is no reason for Sponsors not to stick to what they have "promised" unless something detrimental happens. In other words, the Sponsors should continue to pay 90% or 100% of the cashflows back to unit holders even though it is not mandated by laws here.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
However, having said that, the underlying business is important and retail income is definitely one of the more stable business vis-a-vis, say a shipping or hospitality trust. Retailers don't move their shops every other month and are typically locked in for years.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Yield&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
CRT intends to distribute 100% of its distributable income from Listing Date till 30 Jun 2015 and thereafter at least 90%. As discussed, the actual level of distribution is still determined by the Trustee-Manager and not mandated by law and we have to trust the Manager to "stick to their promises".&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The projected yield is pretty attractive at 8% given that a lot of yield compression have already taken place on SGX. Most of the retail REITs &amp;nbsp;such as CapitaRetail China or Capitamall or even Mapletree Greater China Trust are now trading at between yields of 4-5%.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Initial Properties&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The pictures are below. Frankly i haven't been to these malls but in my view, that is secondary if we are comfortable that the sponsors are reputable ones and i have seen many "Aeon" malls in Japan while on my trips there.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The biggest contributor to the income is no.4 above. Mallage Shobu but you can see that the rental income are evenly distributed among the 4 properties. No key concentration risk.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The properties are freehold properties, currently 100% rented out and has a weighted lease expiry of 11.3 years. You can see that the tenants are locked in for the long term!&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Cornerstones&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
According to reports, the demand for the placement tranche was overwhelming and many were cut back. The usual cornerstone investors are mostly reputable "long term" holders. You can find their profiles in the prospectus.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;What I like about CRT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Properties are focused on the retail sector and income will be stable.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Japan is currently the "in place" to invest (surprisingly) under the new PM Abe.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Strong sponsors in Daiwa and Marubeni and they have given voluntary ROFRs for sale of future real estate in Asia ex Japan. Both the sponsors are listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and have significant combined market caps of more than S$28b,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Good pipeline of assets in Shenyang and Shanghai without the developmental risks and an additional 4 Japanese properties.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Investing in JPY/SGD at a 10 year low as mentioned in my earlier &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2013/04/croesus-retail-trust-crt.html"&gt;preview post&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Strong institutional demand for the units.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;My Concerns&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Economic prospects have not been good in Japan for the last 10 years but that might be improving and the retail sector is still more resilient than the rest.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- High leverage of around 44%, which will affect the company's cashflows if interest rates goes up.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
- Earthquakes or natural disasters but this should be covered by insurance.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Fair Value&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming a fair value yield of 6-7%, the price should have a fair value range of between $1.06 to $1.24. It is a 3 chillis for me and Hoot ah. :)&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
ps - sorry i did this in a hurry knowing many "fans" are asking for the report. Have to go now and i didnt have time to find out about the NAV which should be around par,&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
This is a funny name which i don't really know how to&amp;nbsp;pronounce&amp;nbsp;it. Should be read with a "silent e"?&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Anyway, i am looking at this now because i have to indicate whether i am interested in it but i am not going to do a detailed analysis until it is launched.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
CRT is the first Asia-Pacific retail trust that has its "initial portfolio" located in Japan and it is the second attempt in which it is trying to list on the SGX. Saizen is the other REIT that came to my mind, but it is focused on the residential segment. My IPO write up in 2007 was &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2007/10/saizen-reit.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and i must say, the write up last time is so....yucky. hahaha&amp;nbsp;Saizen has since went through a lot of issues (based on my rough recollection) with difficulties in renting out its apartments in 2009. The current yield on Saizen REIT is around 6.6%.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I am not sure whether the initial portfolio are good quality properties, as such, i will appraise this purely from a yield perspective assuming it can continue to rent out 100% of its units and rental remained the same. In addition, CRT has the right of first refusal on 2 retail projects in China and some properties in Japan which they will only acquire if it is accretive. The tentative launch date for the public offer is next week.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
In addition, the assets will be injected at a "discount" to its valuation price (around $15.8m at current rate of $12.5/1000 Yen.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oK-lPANJyYk/UXkRVcjCnVI/AAAAAAAAEMw/ZTUpWXQUL6g/s1600/image-789379.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5870742649392242002" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-oK-lPANJyYk/UXkRVcjCnVI/AAAAAAAAEMw/ZTUpWXQUL6g/s320/image-789379.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
According to the draft prospectus, the forecast yield is around 8%. CRT has used an exchange rate of around $1.263/Yen. This is a tad higher than the current rate of $1.25. However, having said that, this is the best time to visit Japan, ever. The yen is at a historical low and i have been stocking up on Yen recently. I have visited Japan at least once every year since 2007...and from my memories, the current rate is one of the best rate ever. :oP&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BxqcFDoG83o/UXkRWs6vZLI/AAAAAAAAEM4/7mejYyGyPkk/s1600/image-793801.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5870742670966482098" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BxqcFDoG83o/UXkRWs6vZLI/AAAAAAAAEM4/7mejYyGyPkk/s320/image-793801.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Above is the 10 year chart on SGD/Yen. You see the Sgd/Yen rate and you know that now is the best time to buy Yen (in case you play forex). hahaha. I believe the yen will revert to its mean so over the longer period. Assuming a more "normal" forex rate of $0.0145, the implied yield is actually higher if the future distributions are converted at a better rate.The yield will improve to 9.18% if i use an average rate of $0.0.145 but of course, this will be the "upside" scenario. In addition, when crisis comes, the Yen will appreciate as it is perceived to be a safe haven currency.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I like the retail space as well so i have no issues with this "segment" vis-a-vis Saizen. In recent months, &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abenomics"&gt;Abenomics&lt;/a&gt; is working its magic to lure investors back to Japan. Another article for your bedtime reading on Abenomics is from our &lt;a href="http://www.todayonline.com/commentary/what-if-abenomics-works"&gt;Today's papers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Conclusion: It is a Hoot for me based on my preliminary review.... ^_^&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing.&lt;/div&gt;

Here you go, the balloting results for GDS. The issue (including the placement tranche) is about 13x oversubscribed. I have to support this since CIMB is so "brave" to let the public participate. More of a "moral support". :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZOmzgwnyxaY/UW_50uOo_sI/AAAAAAAAEK4/RYEBGRDwMRo/s1600/image-746075.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="113" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5868183523644997314" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZOmzgwnyxaY/UW_50uOo_sI/AAAAAAAAEK4/RYEBGRDwMRo/s400/image-746075.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Those who applied for 100 lots will get a 20% chance and receive 4 lots.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

5 lots for me. It will be a "hit and run" for me and hopefully, a profitable punt. :)&lt;/div&gt;

GDS Global Limited ("GDS") is offering 17.5m shares at $0.25 each, comprising 12m New Shares and 5.5m Vendor Shares for IPO on the Catalist. 1m shares will be for public offer and the balance 16.5m share via placement. The offer will close on 17 April 12pm and starts trading on 19 April. At least CIMB is doing something more "courageous" than some other boutique outlets. It is letting public investors have a "chance" to play in the Catalist field and i must applaud them for that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
According to the prospectus, GDS is one of the leading commercial and industrial door manufacturer in Singapore.It is also one of the few players who are able to supply steel insulated fire shutters. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial Highlights&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-O3iYEVvmRUQ/UWi8vAU749I/AAAAAAAAEJQ/3nhB_7Ork1Y/s1600/image-755921.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="363" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5866146030377755602" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-O3iYEVvmRUQ/UWi8vAU749I/AAAAAAAAEJQ/3nhB_7Ork1Y/s400/image-755921.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
As you can see from the financial highlights, this is a truly small cap company with low revenue and profit levels. In my personal view, investing in such small companies can be very risky.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Dividends&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company intends to pay dividends of not less than 30% of its net profits attributable to shareholders in each of FY2013, 2014 and 2015. While this is a good intention, somehow, may not be appropriate for a firm who is supposedly growing at a fast pace and needs the cash for expansion.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;b&gt;Vendor Sale&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
For such a small cap catalist listing, i don't like the owners to be seen as cashing out. They should issue more shares instead of selling out.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Valuation&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming the service agreement has been in place and based on the enlarged share of 112m, the listing PER will be 10.92x. This is not exactly good value and even if i factor in a 20% growth (just a guess) in 2013, the PER is around 9x. The market cap based on the IPO price is around $28m.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Peer comparison&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
There is a listed peer in KLW. The website is&lt;a href="http://www.klw.com.sg/"&gt; here&lt;/a&gt;. KLW is trading at a PER of 48x and has a market cap of $20m but this doesnt mean that GDS is a good buy. In fact, i wouldn't have invested in KLW in the first place.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Conclusion&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company is listing on the back of positive market sentiments and at a low absolute price of $0.25, there will be no lack of punters and speculators. My prediction is that given the small float, it will probably open with a bang and the subsequent movements will depend greatly on whether the stock is cornered or not. You may want to try your luck but note that this is not for long term investing and remember to be thankful if you can stag it as there will probably be heartache for people who chase this stocks post listing. I will avoid for long term investment but may consider it for a quick punt.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KCYRbX-FA7s/UTdL7T5DsUI/AAAAAAAAEBo/o8R-9F0JKG4/s1600/image-712831.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5852229723115204930" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KCYRbX-FA7s/UTdL7T5DsUI/AAAAAAAAEBo/o8R-9F0JKG4/s320/image-712831.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Mapletree Greater China Commercial Trust will start trading at 2pm tomorrow. The balloting result is as follows:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Placement Tranche&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The placement tranche was 38.1x subscribed. The cornerstone investors were mentioned in my IPO write up &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2013/02/mapletree-greater-china-commercial.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;img height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--JWZ2ACtYvU/USCslXkFQLI/AAAAAAAAD-M/hu6MAXTc3Z8/s400/image-729398.png" width="364" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Public Tranche&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The public tranche was 8.9x subscribed. Investors who applied between 50 to 199 lots will have the best chance of getting the shares. The balloting table is below:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QflH5xJeuw4/UTdL70lFooI/AAAAAAAAEB0/pln6MgmR8lk/s1600/image-715377.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="238" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5852229731889816194" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QflH5xJeuw4/UTdL70lFooI/AAAAAAAAEB0/pln6MgmR8lk/s400/image-715377.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;My IPO results&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
It is apparently easier to get more shares from the ATM than from the placement tranche and I don't have to pay the 1% placement fees. I got 10 lots from placement but 40 lots from the ATM, so vested 50 lots.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

I have previously shared with you what i think the &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2013/02/mapletree-greater-china-commercial.html" target="_blank"&gt;fair value will be&lt;/a&gt;. So good luck to those who got it and hopefully, Mr. Dow will smile on us tonight.&lt;br /&gt;

This is due to overwhelming demand for its units by the institutions. The IPO prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/bfc3076d6251ea9f48256cf60024e80b/B4851F5062CD159048257B1F0013E2A7/$File/1.%20MGCCT%20Final%20Prospectus%20(27%20Feb%202013).pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and the announcement by Mapletree is &lt;a href="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/93937355/MGCCT%20-%20Mapletree%20Launches%20IPO%20Press%20Release.pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a strong support from 11 Cornerstone Investors and the book was well covered. The Public Offer offering of 265,357,000 Units (less 50,304,000 reserved) will open on 9am 28 Feb 2013 and end on 5 March 2013 12pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Comparable&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The yield is viewed to be quite attractive versus its key comparable, Link Reit (SEHK:823), which is trading at a yield of about 3.5% today. Hong Kong-listed Link Reit owns and operates a large number of retail assets formerly owned by the Hong Kong government and is viewed as a key comp. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assuming MGCCT trades at that level, it will imply a good upside of $1.49!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, I will not be so "greedy" but believe that given the quality of its assets, it deserves a good debut and Link REIT investors should "switch out" of Link and re-invest into MGCCT. A fair value yield of 4.5%-5% will imply a fair trading range of 104 to 116 cents. Having said that, it will be Singapore's &lt;a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887323384604578327321822464846.html"&gt;largest IPO in 2 years&lt;/a&gt; thus I think the upside may be limited by the large float. A debut above $1 will be a good performance for me.&lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

The real estate will be used predominantly for retail and office purposes. The draft prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/e4607bcf096b71f748256b660010c4a4/E1E2DBB9E39E1C5248257B1300137AE3/$File/1.%20MGCCT%20Prelim%20Prosp%20(15%20Feb%202013).pdf" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
MGCCT is offering 776.636m units for the public offer, subject to over-allotment option. The indicative price range will be between 88c to 93c. The placement tranche is 511.279m units and the balance 265.357m units for the public. The float is huge and will suck up quite a bit of liquidity in the market. There should be enough to 'satisfy' demand, so don't expect too much fireworks on the IPO debut. Up to 79.851m may be "overalloted" if the demand is overwhelming and for price stablization purpose. The market cap at IPO price will be $4.41 billion.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The tentative dates are as follows:&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
28 Feb 9am - Launch of Public Offer&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
5 March 12pm - Public Offer closes.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
6 March - Balloting&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
7 March 2pm - Commence trading.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The initial portfolio will consist of &lt;a href="http://www.mapletree.com.sg/All-Properties/Hong-Kong/Festival-Walk.aspx"&gt;Festival Walk&lt;/a&gt; in Hong Kong and &lt;a href="http://www.mapletree.com.sg/All-Properties/China/Beijing-Gateway-Plaza.aspx"&gt;Gateway Plaza&lt;/a&gt; in Beijing.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Accordingly to the prospectus, Festival Walk is a premier retail mall in Hong Kong, is a retail and lifestyle destination of choice, has a attractive and large trade area and growing China tourist patronage. You may want to confirm that with your friends in Hong Kong. Readers who have been to this mall may want to drop a note to confirm if you agree with the prospectus.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Similarly, the prospectus mentioned that Gateway Plaza is strategically located premier Grade A office building and there is a scarcity of comparable properties. Gateway currently enjoys 98% occupancy and counts a number of MNCs as its tenants.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The portfolio has a diversified and high quality tenant base and the breakdown is below.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Cornerstone Investors&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--JWZ2ACtYvU/USCslXkFQLI/AAAAAAAAD-M/hu6MAXTc3Z8/s1600/image-729398.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5845862074307395762" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/--JWZ2ACtYvU/USCslXkFQLI/AAAAAAAAD-M/hu6MAXTc3Z8/s400/image-729398.png" width="363" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Nothing unusual about the cornerstone investors but probably they can help determine the final price at which the units are being offered. I hope it will lean towards 88c to leave some meat on the table and for "goodwill" since this is post Chinese New Year's first Snake IPO and we need to get off to a good start! ^_^ &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Yield&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xYqFTtww6k8/USCsl7V5ReI/AAAAAAAAD-Y/qLY0VOX1ilg/s1600/image-731624.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="205" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5845862083911566818" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xYqFTtww6k8/USCsl7V5ReI/AAAAAAAAD-Y/qLY0VOX1ilg/s400/image-731624.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
At 93c per unit, the Manager projects a yield of between 5.6% for FY2013/14 and 6.1% for FY2014/15. At 88c per unit, the yield will improve to 6.0% and 6.5% respectively.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The first distribution will be for income received from listing date till 30 Sep 2013 and will be paid before 31 Dec 2013. The distribution will be paid semi-annually.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Unaudited Proforma Balance Sheet and financial forecast&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Based on the pro-forma balance sheet and based on the final offer price of 93 c per unit, the price to book ratio is around be around 1.02x. The projected earnings and distribution is below for your reference.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PrJ-r6rr2F8/USCsmVdkbpI/AAAAAAAAD-k/g-rwf9LaHs0/s1600/image-733704.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5845862090923077266" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PrJ-r6rr2F8/USCsmVdkbpI/AAAAAAAAD-k/g-rwf9LaHs0/s400/image-733704.png" width="367" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Based on the projected figures above, the EPS is approximately 4c FY2013/14 and 4.2c for FY2014/15. The PE based on that will be around 23x based on the IPO price of 93c for FY2013/14. The implied yield will be 5.6% and 6.2% respectively. From a PE perspective, the IPO is expensive but from a price to book perspective, it is transacted at "fair value". &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;What I like about the REIT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Prime properties in Hong Kong and Beijing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Good track record of Mapletree. It's two other REITs, &lt;a href="http://singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2011/04/mapletree-commercial-trust.html"&gt;Mapletree Commerical&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2010/10/mapletree-industrial-trust.html"&gt;Mapletree Industrial&lt;/a&gt; have performed very well since their IPO debut. The links is to my IPO write ups last time.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Possible Concerns&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Depreciation of HKD against SGD since it is pegged to the USD.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Buying over the assets at a high.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Fair Value&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I think the closest competitor listed here should be Capital Retail China. (Perennial Retail China Trust is not so appropriate because it is more developmental in nature). At a listed price of $1.85, CapitaRetailChina is trading at a implied yield of 5.16%, PE of 9.44x and a price to book of around 1.42x. Using this metrics, lets try to project the possible trading range of Mapletree Greater China Commercial Trust.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
PE ratio may not be a right metric as this is primarily a yield play. In this regard, i will probably use the implied yield of 5.16% as the primary benchmark and price to book of 1.42x as the secondary benchmark.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;If it trades towards the implied yield of 5% to 6% --&amp;gt; the fair value of MGCCT will be between $0.88 to $1.05&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;If it trades towards a price to book of between 1.2x to 1.4x --&amp;gt; the fair value of MGCCT will be between $1.09 to $1.28.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Given the positive sentiments, the "decent" yield of 5.6%, i will give it a 2 Chillis Rating. This is a longer term yield play, not mean for short term punt as the float is big and i believe all interested investors will be allocated some shares. Perhaps some allocation to the SRS portfolio may be suitable.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
My wish list will be for the IPO to be priced at 88c instead of 93c.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
A Happy Chinese New Year to those who celebrate it. Best wishes for abundant good wealth and health.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
A Happy Holidays for those who don't celebrate :)&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
It is interesting to note that Snake has never been the most popular creature with mankind since ancient time, be it from the biblical times to the main characters from Slytherin in Harry Potter to many Hollywood movies such as Anaconda or Snakes in the Plane. Even Chinese Idioms are "very negative" when it comes to snakes, such as 蛇鼠一窝,&amp;nbsp;画蛇添足，蛇蝎为心.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Will the year of the Snake be a good year for the stock market as well? We shall check back again next year.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;STI was 3,270.30 on Chinese New Year's eve, 8 Feb 2013. Let's see how it performs in the next 12 years. My guess is that it will slithers sideways with many highs and lows, creating many opportunities. Catch it well and you will slither your way to riches, catch it at the wrong end and be bitten by the snake. ^_^&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

It is very difficult to get. &amp;nbsp;Those who applied for 100 lots will have a&amp;nbsp;probability&amp;nbsp;of 24% and get only 5 lots.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1MZGMikIbUY/UQ4R-ilcgpI/AAAAAAAAD3s/pUa21TPdUKk/s1600/image-702229.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="211" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5840625532879536786" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1MZGMikIbUY/UQ4R-ilcgpI/AAAAAAAAD3s/pUa21TPdUKk/s400/image-702229.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.ofs.edu.sg/" target="_blank"&gt;Overseas Education Limited &lt;/a&gt;("OEL" or the "Company") is offering 125m New Shares for a main board listing on SGX, of which 3.75m shares will be for the public offer and the balance 121.25m shares via placement. The shares will be &amp;nbsp;offered at $0.48 each. The prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/936bad13609791c948256b3e001ed49f/7BB20D692595393848257B0400264A67/$File/OEL%20-%20Prospectus%20with%20Gatefold%20(31-01-2013)%20(Clean).pdf" target="_blank"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. The offer will close on 5 Feb at 12pm and starts trading on 7 Feb 2013. The market cap based on the IPO price will be around S$187.4 million.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
OEL is a private foreign system school in&amp;nbsp;Singapore, offering the K-12 IB curriculum for children aged 3 and 18 years. OEL is one of the top 3 foreign system schools in Singapore and according to the prospectus, has a 10.3% market share here. The Company currently has a staff strength of 501 and 3,753 students. The Company is running at almost full capacity and is in discussions with various government agencies on the allocation for a permanent site for construction of a new school campus and all of the net IPO proceeds will be used to build this new school.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The purpose for the IPO is to raise funds for new campus, enhance its image, tap capital markets and provide everyone with the opportunity to participate in the growth of the Company. The bulk of the proceeds of $56m raised is for building a new school campus. I like the fact that the founders are not cashing out and only new shares are issued.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial results&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Kc2RwD7IAbw/UQ4R-5ARnVI/AAAAAAAAD30/BK5GN7066Hk/s1600/image-703620.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="351" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5840625538897648978" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Kc2RwD7IAbw/UQ4R-5ARnVI/AAAAAAAAD30/BK5GN7066Hk/s400/image-703620.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Revenue has grown from S$75m in FY2009 to $89m in FY 2011. For the first half of 2012, the Company made a revenue of $46m and a net profit of $9.4m.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The graph below shows the profitability in the last 3 years, including first half of 2012.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uk2KlBcT7Uc/UQ4R_PDkVpI/AAAAAAAAD4E/CkkvnRQq120/s1600/image-704338.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="295" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5840625544817038994" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uk2KlBcT7Uc/UQ4R_PDkVpI/AAAAAAAAD4E/CkkvnRQq120/s400/image-704338.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Based on the enlarged share capital of 390.36m shares, the EPS for FY2011 was Singapore 4.99 cents and that translate into a historical listing PER of around 9.62x&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The first half net profit margin seemed to have declined to 20.2% and the EPS based on the enlarged share capital is Singapore 2.4c. Assuming FY2012 is a "stagnant year" as the revenue grow by 5% but the net margin drops to 20.2%, the projected FY2012 earnings will be around S$18.95m and the EPS will be approximately Singapore 4.85 cents. This translate into a PER of around 9.9x&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Dividend Policy&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
After reading prospectus for the last many years, it is very interesting to note that the Company has stated in its prospectus that&lt;u style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; it intends to pay out at least 50% of its net profit after tax for each financial year.&lt;/u&gt;&amp;nbsp;This is a pretty strong statement to make. Hence for investors who are keen to receive a dividend income every year, this stock will be suitable. The Company has demonstrated its ability to pay dividends by paying almost half of its net profit after tax for the last 3 years. So you can see that this is a high cash flow generating business.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming EPS for FY2012 is Singapore 4.85 cents, the DPS will be around Singapore 2.425 cents and that translate into a yield of around 5.05%, which in my view, is pretty respectable.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Over-allotment&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The underwriter is able to over-allot if the demand is hot by up to 25m shares. The shares will initially be used for price stabilization post IPO and thereafter, if not utilized for stabilization, the proceeds will go to the Company and be used for the new premises.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Shareholders&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The company is jointly owned by Mr. David Perry (34.7%) and Ms. Irene Wong (33.3%) with the balance held by the public (32%).&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Competitors&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RG6hpcVDY_c/UQ4R_ln6iAI/AAAAAAAAD4Q/_c_WaPxUmKY/s1600/image-706534.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="112" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5840625550875068418" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RG6hpcVDY_c/UQ4R_ln6iAI/AAAAAAAAD4Q/_c_WaPxUmKY/s400/image-706534.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company is ranked no.3 in Singapore in terms of "revenue" generated.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;What I like about the Company&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;High recurring income as students are "locked-in" for the long term from junior to senior school&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I always like the education Sector and the simple business model. The IB program is getting more recognized with some of our branded mainstream schools offering them as well.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Target the expatriates community which are usually less price sensitive as part of the fees are subsidized by the companies which they worked for.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Market for FSS continues to grow at around 8% until 2016. (According to a research in the prospectus).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;The Concerns&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Macro and government policies driving the expatriates community away from Singapore (or if Singapore loses its attractiveness).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Competition from new schools offering the IB&amp;nbsp;program at lower fees.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Revenue and profit growth is limited unless the Company is able to find and build a new premises as the capacity for students is reached.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Management succession plans (Co-founders are aged 71 and 58 respectively). The daughter of Ms. Irene Wong is being groomed to takeover and is currently a management trainee.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Bad local "experiences" looking at how education counters such as Raffles Education, Informatics and Oriental Century have performed post IPO.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Fair Value and Ratings&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Raffles Education has been making losses for FY2011/12 due to its ill-fated attempt to set up a school in China. It will probably make a small gain for FY2012/13 and is trading at a forecasted PE multiple of 38x for FY2012/13. Informatics is even more expensive, trading at 63x PE. These two have been very poor barometers of our education stocks in Singapore (even though Raffles Education used to be a darling here). I definitely hope OEL will prove to be different.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Assuming OEL trades at a PE valuation of 10-15x, which in my opinion is fair, the trading range will be between 49 cents to 73 cents. Given that OEL is highly profitable with a well-run operations and attractive dividend payout ratio, i would give a 3 Chilli Rating and consider it as a candidate to add to my SRS portfolio. Hoot ah.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing. If you make some money but don't know how to spend it, you may check out the "sponsored video" on the top right hand corner of my blog. haha&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6UB079L0eW4/UQeV3G3j3sI/AAAAAAAAD28/9HTqL3kMUYg/s1600/image-712291.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="52" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5838800215878131394" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-6UB079L0eW4/UQeV3G3j3sI/AAAAAAAAD28/9HTqL3kMUYg/s400/image-712291.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
Halcyon Agri (the "Company") is placing out 61m Placement Shares, comprising 44m New Shares and 17m Vendor shares at $0.36 each for a listing on the Catalist. The prospectus is &lt;a href="http://info.sgx.com/webipo.nsf/a550a7e7a8393629482578f6002916ce/8b454b0b3872d4f948257b0100282717/$FILE/Halcyon%20Agri%20Corporation%20Offer%20Document.pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. It is disappointing that once again, there are no public tranche and the placement offer will end on 30 Jan and start trading on 1 Feb 2013. The market cap based on the IPO price is S$104.4 million.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company operates in the midstream of Natural Rubber supply chain, specializing in processing and merchandising of Natural Rubber. According to the prospectus, it is one of the largest exporter of Natural Rubber in South Sumatra, Indonesia. The final customers will probably be the tyres manufacturer and the Company is certified by the top 20 manufacturers. Major customers include Cooper Tire, Bridgestone, Sri Trang and New Continent.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial Performance&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DlOw5dNyYCA/UQeV38TTQRI/AAAAAAAAD3I/cy4KOoApSeo/s1600/image-715639.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="202" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5838800230221562130" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DlOw5dNyYCA/UQeV38TTQRI/AAAAAAAAD3I/cy4KOoApSeo/s400/image-715639.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The NAV per share post IPO will be Singapore 15.49 cents. Based on the enlarged share capital and assuming the service agreement was in place, the EPS for FY2011 will be approximately Singapore 1.81c. This translate into a historical PER of around 20x.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Looking at 9 months results, it seemed that net margin has "suddenly improved" from 2.76% to 5.2%... hmmm....&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming the sales is flat but the margin has improved, the net profit for FY2012 will be around US$12m and the EPS will be (US$12m x 1.236 divide by 290m shares) = Singapore 5.1 cents. That will translate into a FY2012 PER of 7x, which is probably reasonable. &amp;nbsp;Assuming 25% is paid out, the implied yield will be around 3.5%.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Dividend Policy&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Company intends to distribute at least 25% of its net profit attributable to shareholders for FY2012 and FY2013.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Fair Value&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming a trading range of 6-10x, the fair value will probably be between 30 to 51 Singapore cents but downside should probably be limited by the dividend yield and the current bullish sentiment. The Company has a low free float of 20% (or 59m shares) so trade with caution. I will not be surprised if it trades towards the upper boundary of the fair value range.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing. Hope to see some &lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;real&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt; IPO soon....&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.logistics99.com.sg/"&gt;Logistics Holdings Limited&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;("the Company) launched its IPO for a Catalist listing via placement of 42.075m shares where 31.875m are New shares and the balance vendor shares at $0.23 each. The prospectus is &lt;a href="http://www.sgx.com/wps/wcm/connect/e810cc004dda41118db5ed621ed49d32/Logistics+Holdings+Limited+-+Offer+Document.pdf?MOD=AJPERES&amp;amp;CACHEID=e810cc004dda41118db5ed621ed49d32"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company has a track record of 27 years and is principally engaged in building and construction works for government and government related bodies. The IPO will be listed on 18 Jan 2013 at 9am. Since this is a "Placement only" IPO, there is no public tranche.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financials&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ffxQSDNtfls/UOwAa_W-1hI/AAAAAAAADy8/zYQPFGf-_4E/s1600/image-783548.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5831036081222374930" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ffxQSDNtfls/UOwAa_W-1hI/AAAAAAAADy8/zYQPFGf-_4E/s400/image-783548.png" width="340" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Based on the enlarged share cap of 170m shares and assuming the service agreement was in place, the EPS for FY2012 = Singapore 2.576 cents. This translate into a listing PER of 8.9x. The market cap based on the IPO price is $39m.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Shareholding&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QzbQmw41t6g/UOwAba70qiI/AAAAAAAADzI/CfCvin_JF2I/s1600/image-785505.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="237" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5831036088624654882" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QzbQmw41t6g/UOwAba70qiI/AAAAAAAADzI/CfCvin_JF2I/s400/image-785505.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Strong Hands?&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Not sure who Lim Chye Kim is but he is described as "not related" to the major owners. He invested at 22 cents, which is not much cheaper than the public investors (good sign). Post IPO, he will hold 3.9% of the Company and has undertaken not to sell the company for first 6 months and not to divest more than 50% of his holdings from the 7th to 12th month. Is he the in-house magician that will &amp;nbsp;perform some magic to the share price post IPO since he will be there for the next 12 months? &amp;nbsp;Perhaps informed blog readers can shed some light? haha&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Dividend Yield&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The order books appeared to be very healthy and as of 6 Dec 2012, stand at S$232.90m. The Company intends to distribute not less than 20% of its profit to shareholders as dividends for FY 2013. I am not privy to the forecasts but assuming the profits for FY2013 remained the same as FY2012, the dividends will be 20% x EPS of 2.576 Singapore cents = 0.5152. That translate into a yield of 2.24%.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Clientele&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company is a long established one and has a "blue chip" clientele of primarily government agencies. That is quite amazing and bad debts is unlikely to be an issue if the company delivered according to the contract specifications.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Fair Value&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I will not attempt to give a fair value since there is no public tranche. The recent Kori IPO is still 22% above its IPO price and closed above 14% above its IPO price on the first day. Its performance table below.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
If you have been following my blog, you will know how i view small cap catalist companies in the construction industry somemore. hahaha. Probably a big "Avoid"&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Vested&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
An old friend ask me if i am keen to take some placement shares. &amp;nbsp;Since this is the first IPO of the year and will list on an auspicious date of 18th Jan, i decided to be part of the action! &amp;nbsp;Wish me luck? Huat ah.... :)&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The 2012 profit from IPOs (for those IPOs that i have been allocated via public or placement tranche) stands at $4,922.57. Let's see if 2013 will turn out to be a better year.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Lesson learnt&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The table below (sourced from &lt;a href="http://www.shareinvestor.com/"&gt;www.shareinvestor.com&lt;/a&gt;) shows the performance of the IPOs as of today.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The humble lesson learnt is perhaps that those counters that I don't really like during my review - Geo Energy, Maxi-Cash and Civmec have turned out to be the best performers. Perhaps you should invest contrary to my recommendations and buy on the first day of listing and you would still have made a fortune! &amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing and hope that 2013 will turn out to be a good year for us.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;For Records only&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RCw-2AH43GU/UMMH74ujVmI/AAAAAAAADsA/TUKjIl6mkO8/s1600/image-731428.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5819503868914128482" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RCw-2AH43GU/UMMH74ujVmI/AAAAAAAADsA/TUKjIl6mkO8/s320/image-731428.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Kori Holdings Limited ("Kori" or "the Company") is placing out 28.2m shares of which 25.6m are New Shares and the balance of 2.6m are vendor shares at $0.25 each. The Company is basically a sub-contractor for construction projects.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial Highlights&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Kori generated a revenue of S$34.7m in FY 2011 and made a net profit of $6m. For the first half of FY2012, the revenue was $26.6m and the net profit was $5.1m. At the date of issuing the prospectus, it has an order book of approximately $82.8m.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The offer has ended on 7 Dec 2012 and there will be no public tranche.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The offer price of 25c is at a discount to its NAV of around 31.93 cents and at very low single digit PE. The market cap at IPO price is around S$24.8m&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The company will be majority controlled by Messrs Kori Nobuaki and Hooi Yu Koh (61.7%). A group pre-IPO investors came in at around 12.5 to 15 cents.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Fair Value&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I will not attempt to derive a fair value but i believe the downside is limited with potential upside as it is being listed below its NAV and at a very low PE multiple. In fact, maybe the owners have been "short-changed" by the financial adviser but personally will not buy this at the open market due to its industry and small cap status.&lt;/div&gt;

Once again, we are having a famine on the IPO scene in Singapore and i don't think there will be any more IPOs till end of the year. As such, i am going to give myself a long break :-P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Religare Health Trust had a bumper week with 4 initiation report ever since its debut. The IPO write was &lt;a href="http://www.srsfund.blogspot.sg/2012/11/religare-health-trust.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;and the reports are &lt;a href="http://www.srsfund.blogspot.sg/2012/11/religare-health-trust.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Friends of Mr. IPO&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I don't think i am going to hit the 1,000 mark by end of the year unless Santa Clause is giving me a big surprise.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Since my &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/friends-of-mr-ipo-update.html"&gt;last update&lt;/a&gt;, the number of friends has increased from 549 to 651.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The majority are still guys! Come on gals... do something. hahaha.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I will give a final update closer to Christmas :)&lt;/div&gt;

The press release is &lt;a href="http://info.sgx.com/webcoranncatth.nsf/VwAttachments/Att_366EFBC5105A35B248257AA1003CBB44/$file/GHL_Subscription_PR_24Oct12.pdf?openelement"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, the balloting&amp;nbsp;announcement&amp;nbsp;is &lt;a href="http://info.sgx.com/webcoranncatth.nsf/VwAttachments/Att_6AE6B0D9EF2D99AB48257AA1003B86DB/$file/GHL_Balloting_Results.pdf?openelement"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and my IPO write up on Gaylin is &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/gaylin-holdings-limited.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The public tranche is more than 100x oversubscribed. As such it is very difficult to be allocated shares.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wplX-z2eJhQ/UIf4s_UNJ9I/AAAAAAAACeM/BPQCgceXz30/s1600/image-706891.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="100" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5802880096684287954" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wplX-z2eJhQ/UIf4s_UNJ9I/AAAAAAAACeM/BPQCgceXz30/s400/image-706891.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
You can see that majority of the shares were allocated to investors who applied between 10 to 100 lots. Investors who applied for 100 lots will have a 26% chance of getting the shares of 5 lots.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The "over-allotment" of 22m shares were exercised. In this regard, CIMB will help to stabilize the market should the price falls below the IPO price.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RyI_a8odDFE/UIf4t3evOUI/AAAAAAAACeY/vVGdTW7RMOo/s1600/image-710976.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="135" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5802880111760849218" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RyI_a8odDFE/UIf4t3evOUI/AAAAAAAACeY/vVGdTW7RMOo/s400/image-710976.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
No "anchor" placement investors were announced (how come they never announce my name? :P), thus will be interesting to see if the shares are well supported tomorrow. &amp;nbsp;I am one of the 173 after they cut back my application quite significantly. Let's see if can make any money tomorrow... just hope that uncle Sam cooperate tonight...&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

Obviously, he knew of things that i don&amp;#39;t. In fact, he also told me the subscription rate and the opening price one day before the listing. hahaha... Power. I call it the power of placement and i have shared that conversation with you prior to its close.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mEMMMiFKFHU/UIISoWhnbdI/AAAAAAAACYY/H7K8R-3tp4M/s1600/image-728298.png"&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mEMMMiFKFHU/UIISoWhnbdI/AAAAAAAACYY/H7K8R-3tp4M/s320/image-728298.png"  border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5801219754457263570" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some underwriters have the ability to place it to &amp;#39;strong hands&amp;#39; and &amp;#39;syndicate group&amp;#39;and you can actually get some hints from the prospectus when you see who the placement agents or underwriters are.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;To have such a successful debut, you need to have a smaller size issue and limit the number of shares issued to the public, hence the number of shares will be low and it will be very difficult to get. Read the balloting post &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/geo-energy-resources-limited-balloting.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. It is interesting the Geo Energy came out with a news release to boast about its robust debut. hahaha quite rare to see such announcements. The announcement is &lt;a href="http://info.sgx.com/webcoranncatth.nsf/VwAttachments/Att_76545E00411AA9F248257A9C005AEAD9/$file/PressRelease.pdf?openelement"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;. Geo closed at $0.435 (up 33.85%)&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FzkhVUiKP80/UIISonD_9yI/AAAAAAAACYk/nfhcc1dsQlE/s1600/image-730680.png"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-FzkhVUiKP80/UIISonD_9yI/AAAAAAAACYk/nfhcc1dsQlE/s320/image-730680.png"  border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5801219758896445218" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Religare Health Trust&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;On the other hand, Religare has been flip-flopping on its news. First it priced its shares at the lower end of the book building and at the same time, moved its debut from 22 Oct 9am to 19 Oct 2pm. I am not sure if they know the US market will crash on Friday night but thankfully they did that! Otherwise i will suffer a big loss on its debut. I have shared with you my thoughts on &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/relgare-health-trust.html"&gt;Religare&lt;/a&gt;. The thing about big issue is that it is very difficult to control the placement. &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Some readers asked me why i have IPO shares that are forced down my throat. This is because i have signed an agreement to take all the IPOs which they underwrite subject to a certain limit and for a time period. It is like doing National Service. You can&amp;#39;t pick and choose. One &amp;#39;naughty&amp;#39; reader asked me to write a post about my losses from Religare and I will kindly oblige her.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I have 25 lots from the placement tranche, hence i have to pay 1% extra placement commission but the thing about me as i have shared with you is that i know when to move on. I cut it within 15 mins of the opening since i don&amp;#39;t like the counter in the first place. My loss will be about $500, will report the actual loss next time if i decide to do a &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/07/performance-of-my-ipo-tikams-in-2012.html"&gt;report card&lt;/a&gt; on my IPO tikams like previous time. Religare closed at 10% down to 81c.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q_rYwBZXC-g/UIISpFTBYjI/AAAAAAAACY0/fZTV7dwVzL0/s1600/image-732768.png"&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Q_rYwBZXC-g/UIISpFTBYjI/AAAAAAAACY0/fZTV7dwVzL0/s320/image-732768.png"  border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5801219767012516402" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Gaylin Holdings Limited&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The next IPO to debut will be &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/gaylin-holdings-limited.html"&gt;Gaylin&lt;/a&gt; which will debut on 25 Oct. I really don&amp;#39;t understand why they have to close the IPO on 23 Oct at 10am instead of the usual 12pm. Two sharp readers have pointed out the error to me and i have amended my post accordingly. Can someone enlighten me? Is it due to Fengshui?!?!&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My biggest worry about Gaylin is actually the sentiments. Sentiments can flip flop very easily. I don&amp;#39;t like what i am seeing on the US side with a bad closing on &lt;a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/news/ge-mcdonalds-wall-street-black-004715145.html"&gt;Friday&lt;/a&gt; and the Volatility Index spiking up 13%. I just hope that CIMB, as the main placement agent, has placed out the issue to strong hands. In case you are wondering where i sourced my shares from, it was from the same placement agent as Geo Energy. It may be a good thing that my exposure was cut by 65% due to good demand.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Dynasty REIT&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The next IPO i don&amp;#39;t want to get &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/10/dynasty-reit.html"&gt;Dynasty REIT&lt;/a&gt; and hopefully i won&amp;#39;t have too many shares forced down my throat.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;The Naughty Reader&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The same &amp;#39;naughty&amp;#39; reader said that since I &amp;#39;saved&amp;#39; her from Religare, she will &amp;#39;not blame&amp;#39; me for not applying for Geo Energy... hmm... let&amp;#39;s count the probability of that earnout. &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Assuming i have $100,000, since i can&amp;#39;t apply for both IPOs at the same time, i will split $50,000 Geo and $50,000 Religare and that i sold both at the closing price. Based on the balloting ratio, the probability earnout will look something like that.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Religare  = $(0.81-0.90) x 23/50 (probability) x 9,000 shares = $372.60 (loss)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Geo Energy = $(0.435 - 0.325) x 8/99 (probability) x 8,000 shares = $71.10 (gain).&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So in the end, i still managed to help saved the naughty reader $300 before commission using the probability earnout model. :-P&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Happy IPOing and have a good weekend.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div class="feedflare"&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Listing date will be brought forward from 9am on 22 Oct 2012 9 am to 2pm on 19 Oct 2012 (today)&lt;/b&gt;. Not sure which Fengshui Master advised them to change the date and time for an auspicious start but we shall see if it works. :P My other guess is that they probably want to confuse the sellers who may want to sell on the first day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Balloting results for the public tranche:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SbW38wCVgsk/UICP_Vr1swI/AAAAAAAACXk/57MFgqYwRYM/s1600/image-749196.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="143" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5800794638368748290" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SbW38wCVgsk/UICP_Vr1swI/AAAAAAAACXk/57MFgqYwRYM/s400/image-749196.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The public tranche was 14.5x subscribed and investors will have around 50% chance. They have skewed the distribution to investors who apply for less shares this time.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Placement Tranche&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UTb-yaAwat8/UICQAEDx1EI/AAAAAAAACXw/6QyRLYarwEg/s1600/image-751822.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="217" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5800794650817188930" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-UTb-yaAwat8/UICQAEDx1EI/AAAAAAAACXw/6QyRLYarwEg/s400/image-751822.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
It is interesting to note that Henderson Global Investors was allocated 30m shares but was only mentioned in a "small paragraph" while Temasek who subscribed for only 15m shares were given a "nice placeholder"? &amp;nbsp;Probably they want to make sure the "Temasek" name is well publicized but don't read too much into it as such stakes are probably too small for Mr. T.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wTt0jvyCgZc/UIAn-AhasXI/AAAAAAAACWo/Hbd4c5kPi-k/s1600/image-720504.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5800680266298732914" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wTt0jvyCgZc/UIAn-AhasXI/AAAAAAAACWo/Hbd4c5kPi-k/s320/image-720504.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;a href="http://www.gaylin.com/"&gt;Gaylin Holdings Limited&lt;/a&gt; ("Gaylin" or the "Company") is offering 110m New Shares at $0.35 each. 5m shares will be for the public and the balance via placement. CIMB can choose to issue an additional over-allotment of 22m shares and they will use the shares to perform price&amp;nbsp;stabilisation&amp;nbsp;post IPO. The market cap is S$143.5m. The IPO will close on 23 Oct 2012 at 10am and commence trading on 25 Oct 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The prospectus is &lt;a href="http://masnet.mas.gov.sg/opera/sdrprosp.nsf/936bad13609791c948256b3e001ed49f/E250D695CD4AB2E848257A9A00371ECA/$File/(B)%202(c)(i)(Prospectus)(17.10.2012)%20.pdf"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; and the preview is &lt;a href="http://www.singapore-ipos.blogspot.sg/2012/09/gaylin-holdings-limited-preview.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
With an operating history since 1974, Gaylin is one of Singapore's largest multi-disciplinary specialists providers of rigging and lifting solutions to the global oil &amp;amp; gas industry.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Financial Highlights&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XeR2sWVvgw0/UIAn_I6vWTI/AAAAAAAACWw/Td1UrV5Gkxk/s1600/image-723757.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="116" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5800680285732297010" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XeR2sWVvgw0/UIAn_I6vWTI/AAAAAAAACWw/Td1UrV5Gkxk/s400/image-723757.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming the service agreement is in place, the EPS for FY2012 using the enlarged share capital of 410m shares is 3 Singapore cents and that translate to a historical PER of 11.6x&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Use of Proceeds&amp;nbsp;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_YJNAlCJEsY/UIAn_o4vYyI/AAAAAAAACW8/GLEPdFrxmWg/s1600/image-725913.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" height="198" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5800680294313845538" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-_YJNAlCJEsY/UIAn_o4vYyI/AAAAAAAACW8/GLEPdFrxmWg/s400/image-725913.png" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The use of proceeds is stated above and based on the prospectus, it is for acquisition of a South Korean company but not much information was provided.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Dividends&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
The Company intends to distribute not less than 30% of its FY2013 and FY2014 net profits as dividends. Assuming EPS remain the same at Singapore 3 cents (assuming service agreement in place), the dividend per share will be Singapore 0.9 cents. That works out to be a yield of around 2.6%. This should provide some downside protection but I didn't see it working in Courts Asia recent decline.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Pre-IPO Investors&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pre-IPO investors came in at around 12% to 15% discount to the IPO Price and they are not cashing out at the IPO. The major owners will continue to own around 61% of the Company post IPO through investment holding company, Keh Swee. All of them have agreed to be lock up for a period of 6 months.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Family business&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
With the 4 brothers and the many relatives, Gaylin most likely still look and smell like a family business... not sure if this is good optically. Sounds like a&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.qianhu.com/"&gt;Qian Hu&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;where all the siblings are working together?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Auditor&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Luckily they changed their auditor to Deloitte &amp;amp; Touche to create a better image and was given a clean bill of health. The previous auditor has received some shares from his investment in the Exchangeable Bonds under the name of Rhodus. Most likely he is also advising them on the listing as his&amp;nbsp;conversion is based on a certain % of the issue size.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Oil &amp;amp; Gas Industry&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
I like the Oil &amp;amp; Gas sector in which the Company operates in. You have seen Ezra and Ezion doing well lately and based on my investigations, this sector will continue to drive demand in this region.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Placement in hot demand?&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Please note that i am heavily vested in this counter through the placement tranche. &lt;/b&gt;However, the demand was apparently quite hot as my initial allocation was reduced by 65%.My guess is that the over-allotment shares will be issued.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;I am guessing&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Assuming the EPS grow by 20%, the implied EPS will be around Singapore 3.84 cents. Many companies in this Oil &amp;amp; Gas sector is trading at PEs between 10-15x.&lt;b&gt; A fair trading range could be between Singapore 38.5 to 57.5 cents.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;Chilli ratings&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Given my vested interest, my views is definitely biased and i will give it a 2 Chilli rating to support my vested interest and my intention is to hit and run if the market allows. At least i tell you in advance ah... :oP&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Happy IPOing.&lt;/div&gt;
