Based on post IPO shares of 268m shares, the EPS for FY2006 is around 4.1 Singapore cents. For the 9 months ended 31 March 2007, the revenue was RMB 395.6m and net profit was RMB 64.193m. Basically it showed that company is on track to meet the 2007FY forecast and i project a net profit of around RMB 85m for the year ended 30 June 2007. The EPS for 2007F will be around 6.4 Singapore cents. Assume it grow by another 30% in FY2008, the EPS will be Singapore 8.32 cents.

Foreland is trading at a PE multiple of 14.5x while China Print is only trading at around 7.3x. Assume a forward PE mulitple range from 8x-11x, the fair value range of China Hongcheng is between 66 cents to 92 cents. Happy investing.
