Breadtalk has a p/e of about 23 while Katrina is about 20. Looking at Katrina's results, and the brands it operates, I'm not sure why Katrina trades at multiples that is similar to Breadtalk's.

Dive in profits, FCF still negative, and no dividends for FY18.

Management has yet to demonstrate the ability to operate its stores profitably.

Market value based on last traded price is $43m, which is more than 3x book value of $13m.

Katrina's group is a restaurant operator and so the assets are quite "clean" in a sense and easy to understand/value.

Based on AR17, out of the ~8mil fixed assets, only ~1mil (a ~2k sqft office at 1 Sims Lane) is a freehold property at cost and the rest are mainly restaurant renovations/furniture/equipment etc that is not worth much in a sale. So it seems like Mr Market is valuing the brand equity of Katrina Group (Bali Thai/So Pho/Streats which are the main outlets) to be probably in excess of 30mil...
