Might be privatise !
From Kim Eng report !!!
CWT is currently 53.5% owned by parent company C&P Holdings and related parties. C&P
is a privately‐held logistics company. With the entry of Cache REIT as a divestment platform, it
may now make sense for C&P Holdings to consolidate its business with CWT. Under this
scenario, it could seek to privatise CWT. We believe C&P has the resources for such an
undertaking, having received $268.2m for the divestment of four warehouses to Cache REIT in
May 2010. Even at a 30% premium to current share price, C&P would only need to pay $325m
for the remaining shareholdings. Furthermore, this amount will be offset by the estimated
$209m net cash position in CWT currently. Even after accounting for the recent special
dividend payout of $0.06/share, CWT is trading at just slightly above its estimated net tangible
value of $0.88/share, of which $0.35/share can be accounted for by net cash. Furthermore, CWT
is a profitable and growing business with a logistics footprint spanning Asia, Europe and
Africa.
CWT is building two warehouses that are targeted for completion in 2011. This will put
further divestment profits into its deep pockets. We adjust our target price to $1.33 following the
special dividend payout, but maintain our BUY recommendation. Backed by highly tangible
value, we believe there is little downside to the current share price.
CWT records net earnings of S$166.1 million in 1HFY10
To show appreciation for the shareholders’ support, the directors have approved a special interim net
cash dividend of approximately S$0.06 per ordinary share for the current financial year. The dividend is
expected to be payable on 26 August 2010.
