Albukhary So conclusion, SG Bagan better or Kuchai better?

Personally I feel Sg Bagan is more worth to buy, please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
07/01/2024 3:52 PM
TheContrarian @Albukhary, yes, you are correct to say that. SBagan is undervalued (and so are most other counters). Kuchai is presently fully valued based on SBagan's current market price.
07/01/2024 7:14 PM
dompeilee Contra players who chased the news mostly FLUSHed out!😊 I increased my stake by 180% in the meantime, which will entitle me to a few lots of SBagan in the next 2 months or longer. I predict it will go back to above $1.70 at the very least in the meantime.
08/01/2024 10:08 AM
TheContrarian If SBagan goes to RM4.50, Kuchai's fair value will be RM1.60 ....... if SBagan goes to RM5, Kuchai's fair value will be RM1.70 ....... if SBagan goes to RM10 ....... aah, can or not?
08/01/2024 2:31 PM
TheContrarian If SBagan drops to RM3.50, Kuchai's fair value will be RM1.40 ....... pray SBagan doesn't drop.
08/01/2024 3:07 PM
dompeilee Even after 41% ⏫ in shares issued, fair value JUST BASED on the Top 2 MOST LIQUID assets of CASH + Great Eastern shares is between $3.66 -$4.50, not even counting:
1. The 2 adjoining ultra-luxurious, ultra-sprawling Victorian-era Mayfair flats valued at over $70 mil{Β£10,000 rental income per month}
2. The Kelantan freehold plantation lands valued @ $105 mil
3. The freehold S'pore conservation shophouse valued @ $50 mil {S$16,000 rental income per month}
4. The Kajang freehold land valued @ $8 mil.

And this also disregards the S'pore bonds, gold bars & hedge fund stake which I assume to be not too liquid.
08/01/2024 5:21 PM
AhPek Prefer they distribute the cash rather than Sg Bagan shares.
08/01/2024 5:53 PM
dompeilee 81 mil net cash is only 65c per shr. I'd rather get the sister co's shrs which has significant upside potential with its juicy inflation-resistant properties.
08/01/2024 5:55 PM
speakup Aduh! Missed the Kuchai boat. Everybody here say no good, speakup no buy
09/01/2024 12:51 PM
TheContrarian From the beginning people here say SBagan better than Kuchai, means sell Kuchai to buy SBagan.

speakup all the sifu sifu say Kuchai no good, speakup no buy then it up up up πŸ˜₯
12/01/2024 7:42 AM
dompeilee I'm certainly not of the those 'sifu' ! Have been buying it for 3 days straight since Jan 3rd because it's good!

To me, buying either is not wrong...Kuchai is just an indirect way to get exposure to SBagan, especially attractive when the former is at a stark discount to the latter. Its Great Eastern holdings (assuming a S$18 valuation) is already almost equal to its current mkt cap, with prospects for a sharp increase since the insurer's implied value is over $30, having gone as high as $32 in early '18, especially with OCBC buying another chunk @ $17 last year to bring its holdings to 89%, a whisker from the takeover threshold.
Ergo, buyers are getting its 81 mil net cash(constantly increasing by about $4 mil a year), valuable S'pore freehold detached shophouse, Semenyih land & assorted bonds & S$ investments almost for free.
12/01/2024 8:40 AM
CharlesT Even retxrds also know it's a good deal for SBagan n a bad deal for Kuchai.

SBagan bought asssets of Kuchai by issuing shares at high premium (Basing on NTA RM10), more than 50% than their current share prices.
12/01/2024 9:23 AM
CharlesT Go buy SBagan directly io Kuchai to get the 0.22 SBagan (valued at NTA RM10).

Now I know why there are so many poor retaxds in Bursa...

16/01/2024 9:36 AM
dompeilee Noteworthy that despite SG Index tumbling -1.4% today, Great Eastern shares continue their steady upward rise from $17.60 in late '23 to $18.34 now. Disregarding the proposal which is still months away from being approved, Kuchai's holdings in Great Eastern are worth $1.52 / shr so buyers only pay 20c for their Semenyih land, 65c of cash & their Emerald Hill freehold shophouse in S'pore collectively worth 47c /shr & doesn't even factor in their holdings in the S$ bonds & other fund investments. PLUS 4c per shr of Great Eastern's customary May dividend if the proposal drags beyond 1Q '24. A full blown takeover, like was attempted in 2006 by 88.4% owner OCBC by the end of the yr cannot be ruled out!

Diamond7 This article first appeared in The Edge Malaysia Weekly on January 8, 2024 - January 14, 2024

ROUGHLY 15 months after Kuchai Development Bhd (KDB) completed distributing its 26.51% stake in Sungei Bagan Rubber Company (M) Bhd (Sg Bagan) to shareholders, the company ended the year with an announcement of a bigger deal.

This time around, KDB is selling its assets and liabilities valued at RM275.47 million to its sister company Sg Bagan in return for shares. Again, KDB will distribute Sg Bagan shares to its shareholders. For every 1,000 KDB shares, shareholders will be entitled to 222 Sg Bagan shares under the proposal.

The controlling shareholder Kluang Rubber Company (M) Bhd will get the lion’s share of the block of Sg Bagan shares being distributed.

Kluang Rubber holds a 42.21% stake in KDB and a 43.5% stake in Sg Bagan. It is, in turn, controlled by low-profile Singaporean businessman Lee Thor Seng and his sons β€” Justin Lee Chung-Shih and Colin Lee Yung-Shih β€” via their family vehicle The Nyalas Rubber Estates Ltd. Justin is the executive deputy chairman of KDB and Sg Bagan.

It is worth noting that the divestment consideration of RM275.47 million was RM120 million more than its market cap of RM154.68 million prior to the announcement.

The divestment, which unlocks the asset value of KDB, gave a strong boost to the share prices of the three companies, lifiting them to all-time peaks on the first trading day of 2024.

The move is seen by market observers as the nonagenarian Thor Seng’s attempts to further streamline his interest in the Bursa Malaysia-listed companies, apart from unlocking asset values. This has left many wondering about his next move with KDB, which will soon be a cash-rich listed shell company.

β€œWould he privatise Sg Bagan since most of the assets will be parked there?” muses a market observer.
