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.

Japan Foods Holding Limited



Japan Foods Holdings Limited is issuing 13.5m New Placement Shares at $0.20 each. The post share capital will be 88.17m shares and that translate into a market cap of $17.6m (ultra small cap). It is principally engaged in the operation of restaurants under various brands in Singapore and Malaysia. The offer will close on 19 Feb 2009 at 12pm.

For the FY2008, its revenue was S$26.8m and its profit after tax was S$2.85m. Its net margin was 10.6% for FY2008. Assuming the service agreement is in place and based on the enlarged share capital, the EPS for FY2008 will be 2.83 cents and that translate into a historical listing PE of 7x.

"Comparative" Companies listed on SGX

The closer comparable companies listed on SGX will be Apex Pal (operator of Sakae Sushi chain), Breadtalk, Food Junction, Old Chang Kee, Select, Soup Restaurant and Thai Village. They are trading at PE multiples ranging from 6 to 10x. In this aspect, the IPO is fairly priced with little upside and possibly more downside if there is little investors' interest for companies listed on Catalist.

I am not sure why a "Frachisee" is allowed to list as there is no guarantee that the Japan Foods will continue to be given the Franchise status. It is like asking Macdonald Singapore to list its operations on SGX. Anyway, avoid this IPO. There are better companies to put your $ in.
