Food Innovators Holding Limited

Food Innovators Holdings Limited ("FIH" or the "Company") is offering 14m shares at $0.22 each, for which 13m shares will be through placement and the remaining 1m shares via a Public Offer. The IPO will close on 14 Nov at 12 noon and starts trading on 16 Oct 9am.  FIH has two business models - the first is to be a master lease and sublease the space to other tenants and the second is to operate and manage restaurants.  The Company currently has 12 restaurants in Japan, 10 in Singapore and 4 in Malaysia. The market cap based on the IPO price is around $24.9m. Financial Highlights FIH's revenue grew from $37.8m in FY2022 to $43.8m in FY2024. It is quite funny to see that being a master land lease holder has a higher margin than operating the restaurants, once again illustrating the point that it is better to be a landlord to shake leg and collect rent. According to the prospectus, the PER is around 19x. The Company intends to pay 20% of its net profit after tax a

First Resources Limited

First Resource is one of the largest private sector of crude palm oil in Indonesia. There are 3 listed peers in Singapore, Golden Agri, Wilmar and Indo-Agri.

Total Offering: Placement 222 million shares and Public 3 million shares at $1.10 per share.
Manager and Underwriter: Citi
Sub-underwriter : UOB Kay Hian

FY 2006:
Revenue : US$ 94.7m
Net profit : US$ 38.8m

FY 2007:
Revenue : US$ 168m (Assume 1H07 x 2)
Net profit : US$ 75m (Assume 1H07 x 2)
EPS (post-IPO) : US 3.2 cents or Singapore 4.64 cents.

Based on IPO price of $1.10, it is priced at a FY07 PE multiple of 23.7x

Peers Valuation:

Golden Agri - Trading at FY06 Historical PE of 13x (use historical as Q307 a bit erratic)
Indo-Agri - Trading at FY07 Est PE of 23.5x
Wilmar - Trading at FY07 Est PE of 24.6x

First Resources is fairly valued based on FY07 projections and the IPO price of $1.10. Any upside is likely to come from the FY08 projections as well as the high interest from Bio-Diesel projects due to the high oil prices.

Heard that the grey is currently up +10c to +15c from the IPO price. If this counter was listed a 2 months back, it would have enjoyed a very decent debut. My view is that this counter will likely debut with a stag of 10% to 20% upside from IPO price. I would give it a 2 Chilli ratings for long term prospects and profitability and the good peer valuation and share price movement will likely lend further support to this counter.
