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.

APAC Realty Limited - Balloting Results



I rarely see such balloting announcement results where there was no accompanying 📢press release and APAC Realty Limited announced its placement and public tranche subscription rates separately🤔:
  • Placement tranche of 44,503,200 shares was 13.4x subscribed
  • Public Offering of 4,411,000 shares was 29x subscribed

Strong group of Institutional Investors

I am actually surprised that the issuance received quite a bit of interest from both hedge fund managers and traditional fund managers. The list is of managers awarded the shares are below and it doesn't include the cornerstone investors:


How did Mr. IPO fare in the balloting?

It is also quite rare whereby my broker said that i can still apply at the ATM even though i was given 2,000 placement shares. 

Here is my application results - 

Overall, i think APAC managed to attract strong interest in its placement tranche where it eventually priced at the high end of the 60-66 cents range. Good luck to those who managed to get some shares!

Happy APACing
