Yesterday, Bonia (BON) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, CRG Incorporated SB (CRG), has entered into seven sales and purchases agreements (SPAs) with Platinum Starhill SB for the purpose of acquiring an office block known as Block C, for a total purchase consideration of MYR20.9m.
- Buys office for Carlo Rino operation. The office block, located in Ulu Langat in Selangor, comprises seven parcels under the project named “Platinum Starhill Business Centre”, which sits on a total area of about 41,873 sq ft. The deal, valued at MYR20.9m or MYR500 per sq ft, was sealed on a willing buyer willing seller basis. This is the third office block purchased by the group, which will utilize it for CRG’s Carlo Rino operation.
- Funding purchase with borrowings and internal funds. We deem the acquisition fair as the prices of similar project developments in the surrounding areas are changing hands at about MYR500-MYR570 per sq ft. BON will settle 30% of the purchase price with internally-generated funds and the remainder by borrowings. As of Dec 2012, BON had net debts of MYR16.1m and 5.7% net gearing. Upon completion of the transaction, the company’s net debt will increase to MYR37m, which will
bump up its net gearing to 13%, a level that is still acceptable. The acquisition is expected to be completed by FY14.
- Maintain BUY. The stock is currently trading at a lower 8x P/E compared to its peers’ >10x. We maintain our BUY recommendation, with our FV unchanged at MYR2.62. This is based on 11x on FY13 EPS, pending the release of its results, scheduled for next week.
