The steady accumulation by unknown parties since my last post has brought Auric Pacific to reach close to its 1-year high of $1.235 this afternoon. Something positive coming?

3Q result out last evening and shows further improvement in profitability of the 4 underlying businesses and reporting divisions - Wholesale & Distribution (Auric Pacific Marketing), Manufacturing (Sunshine Bakeries, SCS Butter, Buttercup butter blend), Edmontor Group (Delifrance cafes in Singapore & Hong Kong), and Food Junction Group (food courts and restaurants).....

Notably, Edmonton Group has finally turned around from losses, by posting an operating profit of $1.1m. With measured capex, Auric has continued to pile up cash which has hit another high of $81.7m, with net cash reserve also hit another high of $81.3m. 30Sep16 NAV/share has increased to $1.34.

Based on Auric's latest 125.67m issued shares and the last done share price of $1.16, market cap now stands at $145.8m.

It is interesting to make a comparison with BreadTalk Group's 3Q result, which is supported by a larger geographical business footprint, and $192.4m in gross debts and $79.9m in net debts.....

BreadTalk's 30Sep16 NAV/share stood at $0.52. Based on BreadTalk's latest 280.81m issued shares and last done share price of $1.00, market cap now stands at $280.8m.

Following the release of the 3Q result, today (10Nov16) Mr Market resumed re-rating Auric upwards. The buying was quite aggressive - the counter advanced a solid $0.125 (10.6%!) to close at a new 2-year high of $1.305, supported by a rather high transacted volume of 483.8k shares. Market cap now stands at $164.0m.

Mr Market continues to re-rate upwards, and the counter has hit another high of $1.36 this morning. Market cap now stands at $170.9m.

Auric's successful - and perhaps also the most valuable - Sunshine Bakeries unit has been actively launching new products as well as updating existing products lately. Their efforts and events can be monitored easily from their Facebook page.....

, a good full-year profit can be reasonably expected. Let's hope that Auric would resume dividend payment too.

At least one investor(dydx) should be happy about it. Excellent call.
With 2017 presenting uncertainties, the consumer staples space is doing rather well as their business/revenue is more predictable. Those with lower valuations, improving profitability, a strong brand/franchise, good cash flow.

Based on my valuation, using QAF as a comparison, Auric Pacific should worth between $1.73 to $2.28. Their net cash per share is worth $0.62. This buyout offer isn't attractive.
