[SINGAPORE] Thai billionaire Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi's Singapore real estate company Frasers Centrepoint Ltd (FCL) could raise as much as US$358 million by listing a hospitality industry trust business in Singapore, two people with direct knowledge of the matter said.
The deal size is slightly below an earlier estimate of as much as US$480 million for the initial public offering, made before Frasers Hospitality Trust (FHT) began pre-marketing last week. The trust comprises six serviced residences controlled by FCL and six hotels such as Singapore's InterContinental Hotel, owned by Charoen's TCC group.
FCL indicated to investors the newly listed firm will have a market capitalisation of between S$1.02 billion (US$815 million) to S$1.12 billion, one of the people told Reuters. The parent plans to sell 30 per cent to 40 per cent stake of FHT to investors, raising up to S$448 million (US$358 million), both people said.
The people did not want to be identified because the details of the deal are not public.

The amount raised is 25% less than initial planned, what does that imply? The article above equate that as slightly less, I thought 122 million is quite a substantive amount?

SINGAPORE: Frasers Hospitality Trust on Monday (June 30) provided more details about its S$367.9 million initial public offering (IPO), saying the offer has seen strong demand from institutional investors.

The hotels and serviced residences real estate investment trust (REIT) said its international placement of 139.6 million stapled securities at S$0.88 apiece attracted interests valued around S$2.5 billion - which translates to a subscription rate of around 21 times.

A group of cornerstone investors, including DBS and Fortress Capital Asset Management, had subscribed for another 232.9 million stapled securities, also priced at S$0.88 each.

The public portion of its IPO, aimed at ordinary retail investors, will comprise 45.5 million stapled securities priced at S$0.88 apiece.

The public offer opens at 9am on Tuesday and closes at 12pm on July 10, Frasers Hospitality said. The stapled securities will begin trading on the Singapore Exchange on July 14.

Frasers Hospitality - which is sponsored by Singapore property giant Frasers Centrepoint Ltd - will have an initial portfolio of six hotels and six serviced residences valued around S$1.7 billion.

The six hotels, which came from Frasers Centrepoint's Thai parent TCC Group, are the InterContinental Singapore, Novotel Rockford Darling Harbour, Park International London, Best Western Cromwell London, ANA Crowne Plaza Kobe and Westin Kuala Lumpur.

The six serviced residences are Fraser Suites Singapore, Fraser Suites Sydney, Fraser Place Canary Wharf, Fraser Suites Queens Gate, Fraser Suites Glasgow and Fraser Suites Edinburgh.

Frasers Hospitality also has first right of refusal to buy another 18 properties from its parent companies.

The REIT offers investors an indicative yield of 7 per cent for the full financial year from 1 October 2014 to 30 September 2015.

Frasers Centrepoint and TCC Hospitality, an associate of TCC Group, will together hold around 65 percent of Frasers Hospitality after the IPO.

FHT, Lim&Tan noted:

While the strong 21x subscription rate (for the international
placement tranche of 139.6mln shares at 88 cents) for Frasers
Hospitality Trust’s (FHT) initial public offering could see a decent
debut for the Trust next week, we note that at its indicative
annualized yield of 6.9% for this year and 7% next year, it is little
different from its peers such as Ascott Residence Trust’s 6.6% this
year and 6.9% next year, CDL REIT’s 6.3% and 6.8% and Far
East Hospitality’s 6.4% and 6.8%.
And while FHT’s yield is slightly better than its peers, we note that
its price to book of 1.06x is also slightly ahead of its peer average
of just below 1x while its gearing of 41.6% it also ahead of its peer’s
average of 35%. While its pipeline of potential injections from its
sponsors are strong at more than 10 properties, we note that
based on management’s guidance of a long term gearing target
of 40%, it means that potential acquisitions would result in DPU
dilution from the issue of new units. In addition, the rising interest
rate concerns over the next few years would be a dampener given
its relatively high gearing ratio.
Given these factors, fundamentally, we are pretty “neutral” on FHT
as its valuations are not much different from sector peers but the
strong 21x subscription rate for its international placement tranche
could present investors with an opportunity to “Stag” the IPO.

i agree. It looks like stag is better than long-term holding. i + family may tikam a bit for fun. If unable to stag, holding long-term is not too bad either. Is CPFIS allow to participate?
But i also read cornerstone investors don't have holding period. That is they can stag too. Ha! Ha!
Will they? Then have to hold long term lol.
WB:-

1) Rule # 1, do not lose money.
2) Rule # 2, refer to # 1.
3) Not until you can manage your emotions, you can manage your money.

Truism of Investments.
A) Buying a security is buying RISK not Return
B) You can control RISK (to a certain level, hopefully only.) But definitely not the outcome of the Return.

My signature is meant for psychoing myself. No offence to anyone. i am trying not to lose money unnecessary anymore.

Without "Payment Top-Up" for 2 of the assets, forecast yield is 6.5% this year and next year. AKA income support (financial engineering).

Frasers Hospitality Trust reports that the 628 million stapled securities offered to retail investors attracted around S$552.7 million worth of applications. This works out to a subscription rate of around 13.8 times.

Singapore float set to rock our hotel market
BEN WILMOT THE AUSTRALIAN JULY 15, 2014 12:00AM

THE launch of Frasers Hospitality Trust in Singapore could see a new portfolio of Australian hotels worth more than $500 million change hands.

The group has just raised $S365.2m ($313.5m) in a float that was billed as the largest by a Singaporean real estate investment trust this year. It ended up being 19 times oversubscribed, which was welcome news for lead managers DBS, Morgan Stanley, Standard Chartered and United Overseas Bank.

But it is the potential expansion of the trust’s 12-property portfolio in Australia that has analysts talking. The REIT will start with six hotels and six serviced residences in Singapore, Australia, Britain, Japan and Malaysia, and the strong demand for stock should allow it to quickly make acquisitions.

The fund already owns the Novotel Rockford Darling Harbour and Frasers Suites in Sydney. It has a right of first refusal to purchase six further hospitality assets in Australia held by Thai billionaire Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi or his Singapore-listed Frasers Centrepoint.

The Australian properties include the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth, InterContinental Adelaide, Hyatt Hotel Canberra, Fraser Place Melbourne, Capri by Fraser in Brisbane and Fraser Suites Perth.

The Sydney property was just bought by Frasers for $202m, and the InterContinental Adelaide and the Hyatt in Canberra were picked up for about $75m apiece four years ago by TCC, so a large reshuffle of the Australian hotel landscape is looming.

Australia’s Perpetual Corporate Trust is trustee for the Singapore REIT and also acts as trustee for the hotels and serviced residences held across the region.

The firm’s general manager, corporate clients, Andrew Cannane, says Singapore continues to grow as a major regional hub for REITs and the Australian group is working on a number of other S-REITs slated to list in 2014.

The thriving Singapore IPO market stands in contrast to Australia’s reasonably quiet market for major property floats, as much of the action has been at the smaller end this year.

Cannane predicts that cross-border flows will continue to grow and says Perpetual is well-placed to help clients across Australia and Singapore.
