Continue to believe there is a deal on going behind.
Based on my own estimation, BPLANT RNAV is around RM1.90.
Assume a 30% discount on its RNAV, BPLANT takeover price should be around RM1.33.
Also, please do take note that BPLANT have a precious land in Semenyih, which is more strategic compare to the land that Mahsing just bought last week with RM392mil.

deal could only finalise after state election, i think. Needs to get approval from many levels including minister, LTAT etc

Albukhary, takeover price usually is higher or lower than RNAV?

Posted by Johnzhang > 2023-06-21 11:01 | Report Abuse

@Valueinvestor888, Boustead is fully owned by LTAT. The disposal is driven by LTAT. I think LTAT has got the necessary ministries blessing before starting the process. Any approval is mere formality.

@LiTech, normally is lower than RNAV.
RNAV is stand for "Revalued Net Asset Value", mean it is calculated based on latest market price, so unlikely Acquirer will willing to pay above latest market price, unless there is other agenda behind.

https://www.thestar.com.my/business/business-news/2023/06/20/ytl-power-looks-to-grow-re-ambitions

PETALING JAYA: YTL Power International Bhd appears to be gearing up to further its renewable energy (RE) ambitions, says MIDF Research.

Following a report that the YTL group could be one of the parties that have put in a bid for Boustead Holdings Bhd’s 57% stake in Boustead Plantations Bhd (BPlant), the research firm said YTL’s interest could stem from its RE ambitions, which requires sizeable land bank to house potential RE assets, as well as data centres.

The other bidders are said to comprise mainly plantation players, namely IOI Corp Bhd, Kuala Lumpur Kepong Bhd and Singapore-listed Wilmar International Ltd.

Rohank71: OLDTOWN Ptivatisation: in 2018, Jacob, a Ducth company voluntarary bought OLDTOWN shares from the substatial shareholders at a price of RM3.18 (10.42% above the last trading price). Thus, the mandatory general offer to retailers is also 3.18. After the official annoucement, the share price is adjusted to 3.18/3.19. I am hoping something like this. If it is just special dividend for just the SPA, it is no use.

Posted by ChloeTai > 2023-06-22 00:31 | Report Abuse

Like SPEAKUP said, privatise at RM1.50. That means the successful bidder with buy up BPLANT and BPLANT will be delisted. Retailers mandatory general offer (MGO) for retailers is also RM1.50.

Posted by speakup > 2023-06-22 06:08 | Report Abuse

Don't quote me on 1.50. I just like you quote what other ppl say 😎

Posted by Johnzhang > 2023-06-22 08:45 | Report Abuse

Bplant’s total land is 97.4 k ha.

Posted by Johnzhang > 2023-06-22 08:57 | Report Abuse

Amongst the bidders , I think YTL will emerge as winner with substantially higher bid .
YTL bought 664 ha for $428 mil or whopping $646k per ha for RE business ( I guess RE business is very profitable to afford such high land cost) .
YTL is in position to benefit from cheap Bplant’s land for industrial use such as RE.
Assuming YTL pays $2.50 per Bplant share , the total consideration will be about $5.5 bil.
This $5.5bil is just equal to 8,514 ha of land at the same price paid last year (ie 646k/ha). And the balance 89 k ha of land is as good as free.
YTL has deep pocket with $13.5 bil in FD and cash in balance sheet. YTL may also join hand with a plantation company to win the deal and subsequently split the land for oil palm and RE respective in a win win deal .
I am more optimistic for the price to be above $1.50 some suggested.
Above just for discussion.

even IF there is no deal, ltat decides to slowly sell bplant land piece by piece. Shareholders will get huge dividends too. coz fact is Bplant is sitting on vast amount of highly valueable land.

Posted by Johnzhang > 2023-06-22 09:16 | Report Abuse

@miracle_trader, Agreed . Either way it works for me . Present share price is way to low to take profit.
The situation remains that LTAT needs to sell assets to raise a large sum as over $2 bil of loan due for repayment next year . LTAT’s intention to sell Bplant is real . The remaining factors are price and timing.

Posted by steveccwong > 2023-06-22 09:41 | Report Abuse

The present situation warrants Boustead/Bplant to arrive at a critical decision which is in their corporate plan & planning. We wait for the good outcome as the corporate deal is massive and it takes time.

History has proven massive corporate deals don't come easy & fast, and patient & LT investors win well.

BHoldings 57% holdings in B Plant is NonTrading, i.e. must get Govt approval to sell to interested parties. !! Almost at second half of trade, price will go down. Market maker trying to shake off weak holders and Contra Players. Also CH due to expire very soon, so Inv Bank may not want to pay Call Warrants holders if price exceeds Ex Px of 78 cents. !!
