Flow Developments to Watch as the Release of the Value-Up Index Approaches
- The plan is to select 20 large-cap companies from around 30 with value-up disclosures by late August, then gradually expand the index’s constituents.
- Investors seeking both dividends and value-up benefits must buy stocks individually, as ETFs lack tax advantages, potentially triggering fund shifts from dividend ETFs to value-up stocks.
- We can target stocks in dividend ETFs not making value-up disclosures, as they may face overhang risk during fund migration to the value-up index.

- Aequitas Research’s weekly update on the IPOs, placements, lockup expiry and other ECM linked events that were covered by the team over the past week.
- On the IPO front, the prior week witnessed a number of listings with divergent results.
- Given the market volatility, there was only one large placements in the prior week.

- AGUIL is a sports/casino operator spun out of Televisa, with potential for earnings growth through expansion of casinos and broadcast rights for Club America soccer team
- Current market cap of $320 million and low valuation of 9x current PE make AGUIL an attractive investment opportunity

Pointerra Ltd – New contracts from existing customer builds FY25 base
- RaaS has published a flash comment on 3D spatial data solutions group Pointerra (ASX:3DP) after its announcement that it has been awarded US$0.8m in new contracts by existing US energy utility customer Florida Power & Light (FPL).
- The contracts will see Pointerra3D, the company’s AI-driven analytics platform, used to extract information and insights from 3D LiDAR and 2D imagery data.
- We view the contracts as a positive sign that the contract delays and deferrals experienced by Pointerra in FY24 in its dealings with the US energy utility sector are coming to an end.
To Be Selected by Global Investors as an Investment Target, Increasing Cash Flow Is Crucial
- The positive impact of increased dividends must be discounted because seniors, who receive most dividends, are non-working generations and are more vulnerable to the negative impact of rising consumer prices.
- The high level of cash on hand should be used effectively for investments and shareholder returns. Looking at listed companies as a whole, both ROE and DOE are below FY2018.
- Although the too-low dividend payout of Japanese companies have been corrected, the fact that ROE is still low means that few companies are chosen as investment targets by global investors.
