SUMMARY

Aequitas Research puts out a weekly update on the deals that have been covered by the team recently along with updates for upcoming IPOs.


Events next week:

ECM activity is certainly starting to heat up in Asia Pacific. In particular, Japan has had a steady stream of large placements. This week Japan Post Holdings (6178 JP) was the center of attention as plans of the Japanese government selldown is slated to open this Monday, and price on the 25th of October. The selldown has been well-flagged and it will be a quasi clean-up. We revisited Hulic Co Ltd (3003 JP) just before its pricing and so far, Hulic’s share price has been holding up above its deal price.

Back to IPOs, in Hong Kong, MicroTech Medical Hangzhou (2235 HK) launched its bookbuild on Wednesday and it will close this coming Monday. The company's listing debut is on 19th October. We think valuation looks full despite the strong cornerstone line-up.

We initiated on IPOs in the pipeline, Medbanks Network Technology (1690522D CH), an healthcare service provider with an oncology and pharmacy tilt, and 4Paradigm (1764934D HK), a platform-centric AI enterprise solutions provider.

We also shared our thoughts on valuation of Shanghai MicroPort MedBot Group (MMG HK), which is set to capture significant market share in China's laparoscopic robotic surgical market.

In the U.S, FWD Group Holdings (FWD US) has been doing its rounds, meeting investors. We took a closer look at how the company compares to regional insurance competitors and share our thoughts on its valuation.

Last, but not least, tearsheets for newly filed IPOs this week:

Accuracy Rate:

Our overall accuracy rate is 73.8% for IPOs and 67.8% for Placements
