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

JK Tech Holdings Limited

For records purpose only


JK Tech Holdings Limited ("JK Tech" or "the Company") placed out 10m new shares at $0.20 each for a listing on Catalist.  The offer closed on 10 Nov 2011. 


The Company is a one stop provider of IT products, services and solutions to companies. It reported a revenue of $19.8m for FY2011 with a net profit of $2.7m. The EPS based on the enlarged post IPO share cap was 4.08 Singapore cents. That translate into a listing PER of 4.9x. The market cap post listing is only $13.27m, ultra small cap company.


Just a note of caution: For ultra small cap company like JK Tech or Libra, the free float is actually very small. Imagine the number of shares for free float is 66.4m x 30% = 19.9m shares. At 20 cents, the free float translate into $3.98m value. In other words, the founders just need to find 10 friends to take about $400k each to absorb the free float and push up the price thereafter. That is why you see wild swings in prices of such stocks if they are being targeted by speculators. The name of the game is 'dont be the last one holding the baby'.

Haha, true. Don't be the last to hold the baby.
While Jf Tech Holding may be a good company. I do Not believe that it is anymore than an average stock as far as expected returns go. I would invest in a company called PFS web Symbol {PFSW.} The Company provides business process outsourcing and ecommerce solutions in the United States, Canada, and Europe. The stock trades around 3.30 a share.
