L’Occitane (973 HK): Board Updates on the Potential Offer Structure and Price

By Arun George

  • In response to media speculation, L’Occitane (973 HK) has clarified that Reinold Geiger, the Chairman and the largest shareholder, is contemplating a possible transaction through a voluntary general offer.
  • However, the rumoured offer of HK$35 per share is false. Mr Geiger has confirmed that the potential offer price would be no less than HK$26.00 per share.
  • The floor price of HK$26 is light and needs a bump (towards HK$30), particularly if Mr Geiger wants 95% of voting rights to exercise the right of compulsory acquisition (squeeze-out).

Paradise: Boost from End of Ban of Chinese Group Tours to Korea Vs Inspire Resort Opening in Incheon

By Douglas Kim

  • Paradise is one of the largest foreigners only casino operators in Korea which should benefit from the end of the ban of Chinese group tours to Korea.
  • However, Paradise will face additional competition from the opening of the new Inspire Entertainment Resort in Incheon which is expected to open by the end of 2023. 
  • Paradise is likely to benefit from a combination of higher earnings and valuation multiples in the coming months. 

Sapporo Clinical Laboratory Inc (TYO 9776)

By Altay Capital

  • This is a quick profile of one of the many Japanese stocks that have caught my interest and are in my cheap Japanese basket.
  • I’ll be doing more frequent short write ups on names in this basket over the coming months.
  • Sapporo Clinical Laboratory is a $24m market cap operator of retail pharmacies and clinical testing facilities across Hokkaido, Japan.
