Singapore IPOs: Why I No Longer Cover Every Listing

Some readers may have noticed that I have not been writing about every Singapore IPO since last year. The simple reason is that life has become busier. Between my day job, an increasingly packed travel schedule, family commitments and desire to play more golf, I have become much more selective about how I spend my time.  Writing detailed IPO reviews takes time — reading prospectuses, analysing financials, comparing valuations and understanding the competitive landscape. While I still enjoy investing and writing, I no longer feel the need to cover every IPO that comes to market. Instead, going forward, I will probably focus only on IPOs where I am seriously considering investing my own money or where there is something particularly interesting that is worth discussing.

CCM Group Limited

I was travelling for a while and frankly, i didn't miss much action in Singapore. The IPO market remains to be 'dead' with no IPOs. Even the distribution of K-Green Trust by Keppel Corporation was via "distribution in specie" to its shareholders with no new funds being raised.

CCM Group Limited ("the Company") is placing out 25m New Shares via placement at $0.20 each for a Catalist listing.  The Company is a general contractor and aims to be a 'one-stop' shop for its customers.  The order book as of May 2010 stands at $92m. Revenue for the Company grew from $11.4m in FY2007 to $27.97m in FY2009. Net profit was $3.1m in FY2009. The EPS for FY2009 on a fully diluted basis is 3.39 cents. Based on the IPO price of 20 cents, the Company is listing at the valuation of 5.9x, which to me, is a fairly valued IPO. The market cap is $18m based on its IPO price.

This is an ultra small cap company in a sector which i dont like. So avoid this counter unless you have reasons to be bullish or vested. Zzzz...
