Foundation Healthcare Holdings IPO: The Biggest SGX Healthcare Listing Since IHH — Worth Chasing?

Special Edition: Foundation Healthcare IPO Singapore hasn't seen a healthcare IPO of this size in over a decade. Foundation Healthcare Holdings (" FHH ") is looking to raise up to S$242 million at an offering price of S$0.76 per share , implying a market capitalisation of roughly S$1.0 billion — reportedly the largest healthcare listing on SGX since IHH Healthcare's dual-listing back in 2012. Public offer closes 6 July, 12pm , with trading expected to start on 8 July 2026 . Let's dig into what FHH actually does, why parts of the story are genuinely attractive, where I'd want to be careful, and whether the pricing leaves anything on the table for IPO subscribers. The Business: A Doctor Roll-Up With a Tech Layer FHH is a multi-specialty private healthcare platform built on three verticals: Specialists — 108 full-time medical specialists across 16 specialties and 74 specialist clinics as at 31 March 2026, making...

Afor Limited


(IPO booth at Raffles Place. It was unusually crowded due to freebies offered by the launch of My Paper).


Afor Limited is a one-stop premium retailer specialising in the sale of Apple brand products and its complementary products.

1m public shares at $0.33 each
22.5m placement shares.
Issue Manager: DMG & Partners and Primepartners Corporate Finance
Closing date: 16 January 2008

FY2007 ended 30 June 2007

Revenue - S$60m
Net profit - S$3.47m
EPS based on post share cap of 93.5m = 3.71 cents
PE based on IPO price - 8.9x

This is basically the listing of a mama shop selling someone else's product. While we can easily write off this company as one without its own products and is just a concept retailer, the encouraging thing about this entreprenuer is that he has shown you that if you have the correct concept and know the market well, you can be profitable.

A retail shop selling Apple products is more profitable than Creative with its own brands and patents?! Creative should perhaps just concentrate on R&D and sell its technology to Apple for marketing and branding.

Anyway, Apple products have also given people as the 'cool' thing to have, and the next in-thing will be the iphone that will be brought into Singapore in 2008. Challenger 1H07 sales is $65m and net profit is $3.8m, assuming a full year profit of $7.6m, the EPS is 4.06 cents and PE is around 6.77x. Challenger is trading at a cheaper valuation as compared to Afor.

Conclusion: There are better stocks with cheaper valuation around.
