JSR (4185) – Time To Fight The FUD

By Travis Lundy

  • Many months ago I suggested the JIC Tender Offer JSR Corp (4185 JP) was not overwhelmingly high-priced, but that it would be “heavy” for months to come. 
  • FUD and Flows would widen the spread. And they did.
  • Now the time decay to expected approvals and tender offer start are getting steep. Time to Fight The FUD.

JSR Corporation (4185 JP): Risk/Reward as SAMR Approves Broadcom/VMware

By Arun George

  • JSR Corp (4185 JP)’s pre-conditional tender offer from JIC is conditional on several regulatory approvals, notably China SAMR approval. JIC can waive the conditions precedent.
  • A takeaway from the Broadcom (AVGO US)/VMware Inc Class A (VMW US) SAMR clearance is that if JIC is willing to commit to restrictive conditions, SAMR approval can be obtained.
  • On 6 November, JSR reiterated a late December tender start. However, with time fast running out, the likely scenario is SAMR conditional approval with a delayed tender start.

By Research as a Service (RaaS)

  • Lakes Blue Energy NL (ASX:LKO) is a junior energy explorer with assets across southern and eastern Australia (and PNG).
  • Having secured a farm-in deal, the company is set to return to exploration with the high-graded Enterprise North prospect set for drilling in H2 2024 subject to securing the requisite regulatory approvals.
  • The success case of Enterprise North can also add material look-through upside to other Victorian opportunities.
