ToyoKen (1890) – YFO Proposes ¥1,000/Share So Now We Need Discussions
- Yamauchi No10 Family Office (YFO) Friday declared a fourth buyer in its group and reached 26.28% as of the 19th.
- Toyo Construction revealed a back-and-forth between itself and YFO in which it was revealed It YFO had also proposed a Tender Offer at ¥1,000/Share subject to discussions and Board Agreement.
- This, and YFO’s position make Infroneer’s ¥770/share Tender Offer somewhat untenable. Shares could become more volatile.
SK Shieldus IPO: The Syndicate’s Revised Methodology
- SK Shieldus (ABFHIZ KS) is a leading South Korean security provider. It is seeking a KRX IPO to raise up to US$0.9 billion.
- The primary change in the updated prospectus is the syndicate’s valuation methodology which results in a 10% lower value per share. The IPO price range of KRW31,000-38,800 is unchanged.
- Sentiment on IPOs remains poor. For investors willing to look at IPOs, our valuation analysis suggests that the IPO price range remains reasonable.
CIMC Enric (3899 HK): A Favourable Start
- Cimc Enric Holdings (3899 HK) has an encouraging 1Q22 with 24.9% revenue growth. If not the impact of the pandemic and lockdowns in Mar, growth would even reach 35.2%.
- Total new orders increased 23.2% in the quarter even in a period disrupted by lockdowns. Backlog stands at Rmb15.5bn, enough to fully cover FY22 revenue with 7% growth.
- Hydrogen energy business, though still small, witnessed 80.5% revenue growth. Good demand drives new orders to Rmb105.4m; and its backlog of Rmb180m equals to 5x of 1Q22 revenue.
