I forgot to add that in most probability LKH will get the construction project which will be good as their other projects is winding down. The amt is not big and they will need another mega project for their construction biz in the next few yrs.

The LKH story is stale liao... main difference now is that $ made from other stocks are trying to recycle and hence the revisiting of an old story appears to be casting a new light on the company.
While it is true that LKH will be booking huge one-off profits from PL Sq and the DBSS project, it may not be as lucrative as many are hoping for. A friend tried to probe during the last AGM - nothing concrete but it seems that could be mid 100m.
Anyway, LKH mgt has planned well ahead to recycle the anticipated cashflows. Frankly buying Westgate from Capland after selling off PL Sq appears to be indicating their flexibility after somewhat reading the market "incorrectly" on PL Sq.
Last year, there was a disappointing omission of special dividends. Perhaps, LKH mgt is paving way for lower expectations pending the huge one-off accounting booking this year.
I have cashed out my LKH position accumulated mid 40s at mid 60s. Going forward, while I think that LKH have every reason to steer the group they are heading, the bleak outlook for Singapore property market leaves very little room for optimism and with the long term nature of their M'sian landbank together with their new model of rental income from increased holdings of investment properties, investors should be aligning their expectations with mgt's new positioning.
Hoping for one-offs in a changed outlook should be cautioned.
