Good evening Ngcheeki san and everyone.
Sorry, I don't trust the Sing Holdings Management anymore. The Laurels is a very good example.

Hi Good Evening
Hope fellow buddies here can enlighten me on some accounting
rules.
I was reading the Sing Holdings 2014 Annual Report and
under the Balance Sheet, there is this item `Deferred Revenue' of $86mil as Current Liabilities.
I understand that was for the Waterwoods EC.
Q1. SingHoldigs has a 70% interest in Waterwoods EC. The $86mil amount is SingHoldigs 70% stake or 100% of what Waterwoods has collected so far?
Q2. What is the corresponding item on the Current Assets to balance this $86mil? Is it park under cash?

Q1. 100% stake
Q2. Part of the cash collected were used to reduce waterwoods's bank loans, contractors and etc.

If you read the end of the financial statement, it would state the debt to equity ratio. It would also state the cash that belongs to Sing Holdings.

Frankly, I am a little surprised Sing Holdings is prepared to go solo on a land tender and purchase costing $342.1m, and the top 9 bids were all above $300.0m.
With the highest bid at $345.86m giving a land cost of $755 psf ppr, the average selling price for the condo units will likely exceed $1200 psf.

yes me too. A big bite. Market cap is around $120m and it is bidding a plot of land costing $342.1m. I think the reasons are it is cash rich, no land site after robin and waterwoods and they know the place well
