Katrina Group Ltd



Katrina Group Ltd ("Katrina" or the "Company") is placing out 35.8m placement shares at $0.21 each for a listing on Catalist. The IPO will close on 22 July 2016 at 12pm. The market cap is around S$48.6m based on the IPO price.

Katrina is an operator of restaurants and cafes under different F&B Brands and concepts. The portfolio of names under Katrina are listed below


It has a portfolio of 34 restaurants. 


Financial Highlights



Based on the enlarged share cap and assuming service agreement is in place, the EPS will be 1.51 cents. This translate into a historical PER of around 13.9x.

Dividends

The Company intends to not less than 60% of net profits to shareholders for FY2016 as dividends. Assuming EPS remained at 1.51 cents, that will translate into yield of 4.3%

Use of Proceeds

The Company intends to use the proceeds to expand its business and for general working capital.

What i like about the Company
  • Can be highly profitable if the location and pricing point is right
  • The businesses are highly cashflow generative 
  • Intention to pay 60% of its profits for FY2016 as dividend
  • Simple and easy to understand business and structure
  • Expansion into China in a thoughtful way will be highly profitable (like Jumbo?)
Some of my concerns
  • Operating restaurants is not an easy business and relies heavily on manpower for its operations. 
  • The restaurants are "subjected" to higher rental revisions from time to time
  • Singapore consumers are fickle and picky and constantly seeking new experiences
  • Huge dilution to the NTA
  • While the couple controlled 84.6% of the company provides strong alignment of interest, it may be a tad too high turning it into a "family owned" business
  • i have never actually ate at these restaurants
What the peers are trading

Historical / Current Year PE Forward PE
ABR Holdings 18.3 NM
Breadtalk 42.2 23.16
Japan Food 13.21 16.62
Jumbo Group 32.07 25.07
Sakae Group NM NM
Tung Lok 43.1 45
(Source: CapIQ) 29.776 27.4625

While the peers are trading at rich valuation, it doesn't mean they make good investments. In fact, i think the whole sector is "over-valued". 

Assuming a more "reasonable" historical PE of 17x-20x, it would imply the "fair value" of Katrina is around 26 to 30 cents but if the valuation goes towards the "crazy level of 25-30x, then the price will be around 37 to 45 cents.

My Chilli ratings

Personally, i don't really like this sector for reasons mentioned above. The analysis highlighted that the entire F&B sector is "over- valued".  Based on the peer valuation,the IPO should at least see a decent debut worthy of at least 2 chillis.  Since there is no public tranche, my rating is not really important. ^_^

Happy IPOing

On page 44 of it's prospectus, it states "On 30 June 2016, Katrina Singapore declared final tax exempt dividends of an aggregate of S$10.0 million to the then shareholders, Alan Goh and Catherine Tan. The sum of S$7.0 million out of S$10.0 million shall be paid within one month from the date of commencement of trading of our Shares on Catalist."

Considering the company is raising $7.5mil through this placement, shouldn't this $7.0mil dividend payment to existing shareholders raise some concerns?
