So the strategic direction is there, but it seems to lack execution. My guess is that there were not many healthcare related take-over targets for a reasonable purchase price these last two years. These type of companies were not exactly cheap on the stock market either in this period. Let's see if Boustead can take advantage of the recent turn-down in stock prices.

It’s actually another case in point of the constraint of deep value investment.
It’s perhaps what would happen to Bershire if Buffett sticked to his Graham method and keep looking ONLY for deep value buy.

I fully agree. Once BP's value is enhanced via some REITS listing or some similar form etc, Boustead's shareholders will be very handsomely rewarded. Just need to be a bit more patient.

Possible for another shark investor buy out Boustead on the cheap ?
e.g. Pay only 80 cents and get the following?
1. Net cash of 40 cents
2. Investment security (10 cents)
3. BP with RNAV close to $2 dollars.
4. geo spatial and health care segments => essential services
5. engineering arm

Looks like Boustead’s EPS would likely be strongly boosted by government wage support scheme.
74.15 mil (last year wage cost) x 2 months/12 months x 75% = ~ $9.3 mil or ~ 2 cents EPS!!

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro This calculation is incorrect! JSS co-fund wages for the first $4600 gross monthly wages for each LOCAL employee only. And 75% relief is only for the month of Apr, based on Oct 2019 wages. The rest of the months, the relief is either 25%/50%/75%, depending on the industry the company is in. More likely, Boustead can qualify for 25% relief, which nonetheless is still substantial.
And what is 2 months/12 months?

75% - April
25% for remaining 5 months = 125% (from May to Sept)
overall = 200% or 2 months worth of wage support
2/12 = proportion of wage in one year supported by govt.
75% = discount factor to account for the fact that some staff are not local or PR; or have salaries higher than $4600.
if need be, just need to apply further discount factor. But the figure is roughly there.
Mr Market has yet to take note that, actually for sectors not adversely impacted by COVID19, the govt subsidies would go straight into the net profit of these companies or aka free windfall from GOVT!!!

To be precise, it’s 25% of Oct-Dec 2019 pay, 25% of Feb, Mar, May-Jul 2020 pay and 75% of April 2020 pay so total should be 2.75 months of annual salary capped at $4600 per month.
So probably back of envelope 2.75 /13 months of $74.15 (ref CuriousParty) which is $15.7m which is likely overstated as probably more than 20% of employees make more than $4600

Need to also apply some discount factor for workers who are not Singaporeans or PRs.
Give and take , we are probably looking at about 1 to 1.5 cents boost to overall year EPS .

The financial year ends March, which is before the escalation of the foreign worker dormitory cases. Likewise, Malaysia has not gone into lock down yet. So the full impact of that is not reflected.
Book order will be at a record high since their 2 large contracts are being recognized over this and next year.
Given where the economy is, I don't think they can get new tenants for some of their industrial project developments. Perhaps, they might see some additional revenue from Esri geo-spatial mapping.

All segments of Boustead are up except BP. Once BP has recovered and launched the reits , Boustead will take off ...
In fact , share price of BP recovered quite a bit despite the gloomy outlook and reduction in dividends . Other overseas projects should be contributing for the Design and Build segments . As for leasing , not to worry too much ...
