With the low interest rates, ppty craze is still continuing its momentum..
More BTO projects are being planned, and more land being supplied for residential development,
My view is construction business will gain good profits, currently I'm holding onto KSH and LianBeng..

my thought about this company:

1. earning from construction was very good. construction order book is building now. 2007 - 2008 was exceptional year when it was awarded tons of private residential project.

2. property development was somehow disappointing. Lincoln Suites clearly is a loss. CityScape seems not selling well. The Boutiq is quite successful. There are still other coming property development, could be trouble if property crashes. On the surface, it seems that the company is in a strong balance sheet. But there is tons of leverage hidden in its property joint ventures. The company provides shareholder loan to its property joint ventures, as well as corporate guarantee for obligation of its property joint ventures. If any of its property joint venture can't sell well and sell fast, it might have serious liquidity problem.

Hi freedom, thanks for sharing your analysis. I learn something new about project development companies now and the risks I need to take note of.

Thanks for the sharing,
I think it's also something new for me about the joint venture risks involved.

surprised to see REZI 26 sold 90 units in the first month of launch at median price of 1,161 psf (lowest 704, highest 1,384)

are shoebox units still so popular?

It seems like KSH Holdings 45% owned Rezi 26 (mainly shoebox units) is selling like hot cake. Based on the land cost of $375 psf, the breakeven price should be around $700 psf. By the way, before today (15 Nv) announcement S&P report released on 9 Nov already indicated the sale result of Rezi 26.

something more interesting based on Q2 financial statement.

as its development property account decreases (recognition of revenue from Lincoln Suites), it is reducing its bank term loan under non-current liability. It is using its current asset to offset its non-current liability. with time, eventually, it might have a current ratio of less than 1 assuming that development property are fully recognized to offset the non-current liability and no cash is back to current asset. If KSH continues to increase its investment in its associates and/or property joint venture, the cash will be drained even faster. the current ratio will become less than 1 even faster.
