Boustead Singapore

1) Pay out the "extra" cash, idling for very very long (15+ years is too long even for me, if they were unlisted biz, I'd make noise also), although it's now delivering more yield and hence even more unlikely to pay out?

hi ksir,

What do you mean by "delivering more yield and hence even more unlikely to pay out"?

I mean the cash is now delivering more yield (higher interest rate) and hence lesser pressure for them to pay out the extra cash as dividend.
I noticed most of my companies (being darn cash rich), benefiting from this, bottom line looks nicer hahaha.

Since Mr Wong is currently buying shares in the open and such actions seem to be driving up the share price, can I say it is unlikely he/his family is planing to take major corporate action soon?
During the AGM and EGM last year, the board repeatedly explained that the Boustead project acquisition had to be done with surprise element so as to get a good price for Boustead shareholder. That advice should be relevant if Mr Wong has intention to privatise Boustead?

Just thinking aloud... FF Wong is already quite advanced in age.. So the possibility of privatizing Boustead is there?

Boustead Project with the Freehold Como Hotel will be a super cash cow soon..

With Boustead Projects (~99%) returning to the Boustead family, many investors are hopeful that dividends could increase to 5 cents, or even reach 6 to 7 cents, once operations at the COMO hotel stabilize. The COMO Group is set to open its first hotel in Singapore in the second half of 2023, according to The Straits Times...

RNAV of Boustead should be in $2.5 to $3 range...
- BP RNAV $2.0 (Boustead's share is $1.3)

- Engineering ($0.40)
- Health Care ($0.10)
- Net Cash ($0.35 to $0.40)
