The thing I am scared most is not nightmares or market crashes..... Its my greed that I fear the most.

When people ask what is my target price, I never have any good answer for it because Philip Fisher said before (in Common Stock Uncommon Profit) that the best time to sell is never. Equity investment is buying into ownership, not betting slips.

The path to greatness and wealth is necessarily dangerous.... because greed is a fearsome fore that threatens your success at every step.

Out of topic a little...

I only have a few core boring holdings:

CMP div yield @ 1.08 - 6.48%, so capital gains 3.52%
FCL div yield @ 1.85 - 4.65%, so capital gains 5.35%
St****** div yield @ 0.61 - 4.92%, so capital gains 5.08%
SSC div yield @ 0.33 - 3.03%, so capital gains 6.97%

Fingers crossed no downside, ie must not have cyclicality...

If I keep getting 10% returns pa, using 72 rule, 7.2 years I double my $.

I don't know... I m v simple and kiasi...

Pls correct me if I m wrong...

FY results out:
http://infopub.sgx.com/Apps?A=COW_CorpAn...743b56d63a

Singapore, 26 May 2015 – Mainboard-listed Boustead Projects Limited (“Boustead Projects” or the “BP Group”), a leading specialist in real estate solutions today announced its unaudited financial results for the full-year ended 31 March 2015 (“FY2015”).
For FY2015, the BP Group achieved revenue of S$255.4 million, 22% higher than FY2014. Profit attributable to equity holders of the company (“net profit”) was S$24.7 million, 31% lower than FY2014. After adjusting for non-recurring gains/losses, provisions and income tax expense adjustments1, net profit for FY2015 would be 4% lower than FY2014.
Design-and-build revenue increased to S$228.9 million, up 22%. This was achieved through the substantial delivery of the BP Group’s largest design-and-build project (completed during FY2015), in addition to the commencement of several new projects.
Leasing revenue came in at S$26.5 million, rising 21%. This was mainly due to the expansion of the industrial leasehold portfolio, which benefitted from the partial contribution of two design-build-and-lease projects completed during FY2015, and three other industrial leasehold properties which provided full-year rental in FY2015. The BP Group continued to focus on its ongoing strategy to expand the industrial leasehold portfolio, which will increase future recurring rental income.
The BP Group’s gross profit increased by 8% to S$57.3 million. However, the gross profit margin fell to 22% in FY2015 from 25% in FY2014. The gross profit margin was negatively impacted by the challenging and competitive industrial real estate solutions market in Singapore, which placed additional pressure on the margins of design-and- build projects.
Profit before income tax declined by 15% to S$33.4 million, mainly due to the absence of non-recurring gains, increase in overhead and other operating expenses, higher finance costs and negative share of results of an associate company and joint ventures.
Net profit for FY2015 declined 31% for reasons mentioned earlier and also due to significantly higher taxes, as there was an income tax overprovision adjustment of S$3.0 million in FY2014.
Mr Thomas Chu, Managing Director of Boustead Projects said, “This is our inaugural financial results announcement following our recent listing on the Main Board of the SGX. Despite the challenging environment that we operate in, we managed to deliver a decent set of results.”
Mr Chu added, “As we move forward as a listed company, we have established certain strategic capabilities to enhance our competitive position, among them our strategic partnerships including Boustead Development Partnership, as well as our strong push into Malaysia. With our low net gearing, reasonable cash position and various financing options, we have the necessary financial resources to continue seeking out viable development and investment opportunities, especially those in relation to expanding our industrial leasehold portfolio.”
The Group’s net borrowings position stood at S$72.2 million at the end of FY2015, resulting in a net gearing of 29%. This has taken into consideration a short-term bridging loan of S$50.9 million to a joint venture (which is expected to be repaid by the middle of calendar year 2015).
In FY2015, the BP Group secured eight contracts totalling S$288 million in value, a record level. The BP Group’s order book backlog as at the end of FY2015 stood at S$216 million. Since the beginning of FY2016, the BP Group has secured an additional S$34 million contract. Nonetheless, the BP Group continues to operate in a highly challenging and competitive industrial real estate market, with the expectation that the difficult business conditions of the past three years are set to continue in FY2016 and will likely have an impact on future gross margins.
The BP Group was successfully demerged from Boustead Singapore Limited, with approximately 48.8% of Boustead Projects Limited’s shares distributed to Boustead Singapore Limited’s entitled shareholders as a dividend in specie. Boustead Projects Limited was listed on the Main Board of the Singapore Exchange on 30 April 2015. Following the successful demerger, the BP Group is positioned to be more focused, quicker to react to opportunities and able to directly tap equity markets for its own capital requirements. This will enable the BP Group to be more adaptable and flexible in addressing the challenges of the industrial real estate market.

During FY2015, the BP Group also embarked on various strategic initiatives to enhance its competitive position. Firstly, the BP Group expanded into Malaysia through a joint development of a clean and green business park, iBP @ Nusajaya, as well as securing a contract from a multinational healthcare corporation for its facility at the Kulim Hi-Tech Park. Secondly, the BP Group established the Boustead Development Partnership to pursue design-build-and-lease, development and redevelopment opportunities in industrial real estate in Singapore. In March 2015, the Boustead Development Partnership secured its first two development projects in the healthcare and aerospace industries, which will expand the industrial leasehold portfolio and increase future recurring rental income.

In FY2016, the BP Group will continue to seek out development and investment opportunities either on its own or with strategic partners in Singapore, Malaysia, China and potentially other parts of South East Asia.The BP Group believes that notwithstanding the challenging business environment, it can continue to deliver a reasonable level of profit in FY2016.

The key focus is recurrent income component.

Current FY15 recurrent income - $26.5mil
FY16 recurrent income (forecast) - $36mil.

Four DBL projects were completed in Q2 to Q4 of 2014. These projects only contributed partially to FY15 recurrent income. From FY2016 onwards, these projects will contribute fully.

I like the way u run business... only focus on topline and conveniently ignore expenses...

Of course quality of income improved but how can u forget about the other division?

Anyway, I think overall earnings for BP is likely to be down and hence breakup valuation remains a self convincing strategy...

$36mil gross recurring income for FY2016.
Net income = $15mil or recurring EPS = 4.7 cents or 5% of current share price (95 cents).

This is before taking into account any development profits.

FY2016 Forecast
Total Net income = $30.9mil
EPS = ~ 9.7 cents or 20% improvement over FY2015.

Working:-
1. Net recurring income for FY2016 = $15mil.
2. Net development profit for FY2016 = $212.5 mil (See table below) x NPM (7.4% - use 2015 as basis) = $15.9mil.
