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

Correlation between IPO Booths and its performance?

IPO Booths


It will be interesting to do a correlation between the size of the IPO booths and the performance of the company after its IPO. Any takers?

I am sad to say that many IPOs were not as good as how their IPO booths looked. In fact, some of the companies have even gone bankrupt despite having one of the nicest looking IPO booths at the launch. Perhaps the glitzy booths are just a camouflage for its lack of quality.

I scan through my blog and see many S-Chips booths. I can imagine how much Singaporean investors lost from the many S-chips that were listed here in Singapore. An interesting article to read again will be confession of a S-Chip CEO in case you are a newbie to IPOs. I hope this will help you understand a bit better on why I am very wary with S-Chips. Unfortunately, these scandals have resulted in well managed S-Chips being unfairly penalized with low valuations and many have since been privatized and re-listed elsewhere.

In my personal view, there are only a few S-Chips which i will consider for trading (not invest), example Yanlord and Yangzijiang. Some of you may like China Minzhong, Sino Grandness and China Fishery but i will reserve my judgment for now.

Happy S-Chiping.
