            Mr Wee is increasing his stake in UIC. It is a matter of time UIC will be privatise. The same thing happened to Singapore Land in 2014. Before the delisting, UIC was buying Singapore Land shares in market and off market. Now, Wee is doing the same to UIC shares. I have been tracking his purchases. See my tracking list. Based on 3Q results, UIC NTA is $4.19. How much will Wee pay for UIC?

Dr Wee has been at this game since 1990... there is nothing new... in fact as per Singland's case, he did not pay full value for Singland... there is no need to speculate as UIC is a listed pte entity...

Its not IF but WHEN.

Looking at historical prices, the bid price is not too high ?

Residential site at Clementi Avenue 1 attracts 6 bids


SINGAPORE: A residential site at Clementi Avenue 1 has attracted six bids, said Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) said on Wednesday (Dec 9).

The top bid came from a consortium comprising UOL Venture Investments and Singland Homes, which offered S$302.1 million. This translates to about S$6,620.21 per sqm. Oxley-Lian Beng Ventures was the second-highest bidder, at S$276.201 million.

The 140,339 sq ft site can yield a maximum Gross Floor Area of 491,185 sq ft, or an estimated 460 to 500 housing units.

Mr Desmond Sim, head of CBRE Research (Singapore and South East Asia) said the number of bids reflects the need for developers to beef up their land bank.

SLP's executive director and head of research and consultancy, Nicholas Mak said: "We expected more than 10 bids because this site is located within the popular Clementi town and there is an absence of competition from other new launches in the neighbourhood."

He added: "Some developers may be reserving their resources to bid for the residential sites that would be announced in the new GLS (Government Land Sales) programme for H1 2016. As a result, the participation rate in today’s tender is moderately low."

Analysts estimate the breakeven prices for the residential space in the new condominium to be developed on the site to range from S$1,100 psf to S$1,150 psf.

UOL posts 48% increase in 2Q earnings to $195 mil on higher fair value gains

SINGAPORE (Aug 8): UOL Group recorded a 48% jump in 2Q19 earnings to $195.4 million, compared to $131.9 million in 2Q18.

This brings 1H19 earnings to $267.7 million, 29% higher than $207.2 million in 1H18.

Revenue for 2Q19 was 20% lower at $512.3 million from $637.9 million a year ago, mainly due to lower progressive recognition of revenue from development projects, Principal Garden, The Clement Canopy and Botanique at Bartley which obtained TOP in Dec 2018, March and April respectively.

Hotel operations also recorded a 3% decline mainly from lower occupancies and room rates at Marina Mandarin and ParkRoyal Darling Harbour and ongoing refurbishments at ParkRoyal on Kitchener Road.

This was partially offset by higher revenue contribution from property investments, mainly UIC Building and newly acquired 72 Christie Street in Sydney; higher revenue contribution from the management services and technologies segment; and increase in dividend income from quoted investments in UOB and Haw Par.

As cost of sales decreased by 31% y-o-y to $261.1 million, gross profit for 2Q19 came in at $251.2 million, 4% lower than $260.9 million last year.

Expenses for 2Q19 came in at some $116 million.

The group saw a near trebling of fair value gains on its investment properties to $181.9 million from $64.4 million a year ago.

As at end June, cash and cash equivalents stood at $609.4 million.
