Aequitas Research puts out a weekly update on the deals that have been covered by Smartkarma Insight Providers recently, along with updates for upcoming IPOs.
Placements took a back seat this week and IPO activity came roaring back to life.
Starting in the US, the two highly anticipated IPOs, Luckin Coffee (LK US) and Douyu (DOYU US), filed their prospectus with the SEC. We have already shared our early thoughts on the companies. Look out for more insights as we crunch through the numbers in the following weeks leading up to its IPO launch.
Yunji Inc. (YJ US) and So-Young (SY US) opened their IPOs for bookbuild. We covered their valuation in:
Back in Hong Kong, Shenwan Hongyuan Group (H) (6806 HK) plunged 12% on its debut on Friday. As per Ke Yan, CFA, FRM's insight, risk-reward after the plunge implies that Shenwan is trading at a deeper discount to its A-share than it deserves. Considering that there had already been a big potion of adjusted free-float traded, stabilization can easily support the share price from here back to its IPO price.
Duiba Group (1753 HK) also opened its IPO for bookbuild this week. We heard that books are covered as of Friday. Valuation leaned on the expensive side as bankers probably took advantage of the strong rally in advertising peers to offer it at a higher valuation. We think that the IPO will only offer upside from the bottom end of the price range.
Activity is also picking up for Singapore and Malaysia after a long lull. ARA US Hospitality Trust (HOTEL SP) and Eagle Hospitality REIT filed their prospectus with MAS while ARA US Hospitality's IPO is already taking orders for bookbuild. Sumeet Singh penned his thoughts on the REIT and its valuation in:
Malaysia's Leong Hup International (LEHUP MK) finally launched its IPO after initial delays.
