hello i am not really familiar with SGX ruling and a bit confused trying to catch up with this whole saga.
is 68 Holdings still increasing its stake at HPL? how much stake do they want eventually?
has re-development started? where can we get the details regarding this re-development project? without any details how can we have a good forecast of its RNAV?
thank you so much.

also just a question regarding timing of the general offer...
before the first offer in April 2014, did the market already know that redevelopment was going to happen in Western Orchard/ did the market already know that the government had already given out incentives to developers to rejuvenate the area?
thanks so much again, sorry if it sounds like a stupid queston

FTSE rebalancing last week has wrecked havoc in share prices across SGX.
HPL is one such victims.
At 395, it is exactly the price that OBS/Wheelock paid for its stake in HPL xd FY14 DPS of 10 cents.
OBS is deemed to have 77.88% stake in HPL with father in law Peter Fu's Bornfree Investments holding another 7.02%.
Based on latest annual report, free float is 13.7%. To delist HPL, the free float just need to be reduced by more than 3.7%.
Given that 1 year moratorium is expiring soon on 30th June, will be interesting to see if OBS/Wheelock may team up with Peter Fu to stage another delisting attempt...

SINGAPORE (Feb 26): Hotel Properties, which owns the Four Seasons and Hilton hotels in Singapore, reported a 68% rise in FY17 earnings to $179.5 million from $108.6 million a year ago on higher sales and share of results of associates and JVs.
Revenue rose 14.1% to $659.2 million mainly due to sale of completed condominium units from the Tomlinson Heights development as well as better performances by the group’s hotels and resorts.
These contributed to an increase in cash generated from operations to $306 million for the year under review from $159.6 million last year.
