- In mid-February, Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (LREIT SP) which owned 31.8% of the Jurong East MRT Station “Jem” complex announced it would buy the rest.
- They announced they would issue new equity to pay for some of it. Predictably, the units fell, and fell vs Office/Retail Mixed-Use SREIT peers.

Doosan Corp Placement – Large Deal but Price Momentum Has Been Solid
- Park Yong-maan, Park Seo-won and Park Jae-won are looking to sell down their stakes in Doosan Corp (000150 KS) . The share sale will be a cleanup.
- In our view, the deal should bode well for the current management, giving them free rein in management coupled with the share sale being a clean-up.
- In this note, we will talk about the firm’s track record and run the deal through our ECM framework.
Ruchi Soya Placement – Almost Akin to a Relisting
- Ruchi Soya Industries (RSI IN) is looking to raise up to US$560m via a follow-on public offer.
- The deal is almost akin to a relisting, as the free float was just at 1% prior to this deal.
- Given the tight float, instead of discussing its track record , we will discuss the timeline of events leading up to the deal, past performance and undertake a peer comparison/valuation.
Ferretti IPO: Things Have Gotten Worse Since Previous Attempt to List in Milan
- The Italian luxury yacht maker, Ferretti SpA (FER IM) , has filed for an IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and plans to raise net proceeds of around US$272m.
- The company previously filed for an IPO in Milan in 2019 targeting a market value of around EUR1.8bn (US$1.2bn), which was scrapped claiming a “weak market”.
- Ferretti’s revenues suffered with COVID-19 and ongoing issues such as the Ukraine-Russia war and China-US trade tensions would only put further pressure on the company.
