I think is a good idea, considering that demand exceeds supply. And population booming.

On 20 Dec 12, LC holding acquired the mixed-use property at Kensington High street for a net consideration of S$80.38 million. Supposedly, it will yield a steady rental income for the group in the long run. However, on 9 Feb 15, they disposed the property for S$ 41.0 million. Is there anything that I might have missed out on this? Aren't they running a net loss for this transaction?

Hi Nuthing03,

let me try to see if I can explain the transaction. Just keep in mind assets vs shares, and who is taking on the debt. Hopefully it will be clear.

In Dec 2012:
- Lum Chang set up a special purpose vehicle/100% owned subsidiary Old Court House Propco (OCHP)
- Very very roughly speaking, just imagine that Lum Chang funded OCHP to the tune of S$28.0m (reverse engineered from the current NAV of OCHP. I'm just using the numbers available in the latest announcement. So you can assume all these are nett of interests and rent payments)
- Again, big picture wise, S$28m was about GBP14m.
- With that GBP14m, OCHP took up a loan of GBP26m, making it a total of GBP40m
- With that GBP40m, OCHP bought the freehold mixed-use property at Kensington High Street

NOW:
- Lum Chang is selling 100% of the shares in OCHP
- Recall that Lum Chang funded OCHP to the tune of S$28m
- For 100% of the ownership of OCHP, Lum Chang is now getting back S$41m by selling the shares to the new buyer
- As a result, Lum Chang will book a gain of roughly S$41-28 = S$13m minus expenses or about S$11.4m as mentioned in the announcement

From the perspective of the buyer:
- They are buying the company (OCHP) at S$41m or GBP20m in cash and assuming GBP26m in loans to gain 100% control of the freehold mixed-use property at Kensington High Street
- Total consideration of GBP46m (which also means that Lum Change made a gain of about 15% in about 2 years ignoring all the rental, interests and transaction costs)

HTH

^^nice breakdown. Property ROA is indeed 15% but Lum Chang ROE/ ROI is 11.4/28= 40.7% due to leverage

FY2020 Result as at 30 Jun 2020
Rev $322m (vs 240m)
GP  $ 35m (vs 34m)
Net Loss $6m (vs +27m)
Div 1.0cts (vs 1.5)

While the Group’s construction arm succeeded in securing new assignments, bringing our current order book to S$1.87 billion, we anticipate the operating environment will remain challenging, compounded by the added uncertainty of when our project sites will be fully operational and back to running at pre-Covid levels.
