LightStream Research

LightStream conducts quantitatively rigorous and data-driven analysis with a focus on Japan and Asia.

We consistently cover the Tech, Consumer and Industrial sectors, and provide ECM and Events coverage more broadly.

We supplement traditional qualitative insights from company relationships with a robust quantitative foundation that examines as much historical data as is available.
We further refine the accuracy of our insights and calls through the use of alternative data to flesh out current trends, and through a valuation framework that emphasises non-superficial peer group selection and a proper attempt to understand the metrics and changes that have driven security valuations in the past.

Although the recent media reports suggested overwhelming interest from both retail and institutional investors, the Tam Jai International (2271 HK) IPO subscription status was not all that great with subscription rates of 29.6x and 3.9x for the Hong Kong offer and international offer respectively.
Consequently, the IPO was priced at the low end of the offer range at HK$ 3.33 per share, which implies a market cap and EV of HK$ 4.5bn and HK$ 3.1bn respectively.
Nevertheless, we remain unruffled by the surprisingly low IPO subscriptions as 66% of the Hong Kong IPO during the last three months made listing gains with less than 5.0x subscriptions (international offer).
