A Quietly-Growing Stock With Impressive Financials Conservative economics posits that the economy must be recovering, as the US Fed Reserve is putting an end to its monetary stimulus. Retail businesses would stand to benefit from the upcoming bull run, which should inspire extravagant consumer spending. One company, Metro Hldgs in particular, stands out for its strong fundamentals and attractive valuations. The company has nearly a 60 year history, an experienced management with strong succession plans. The P/E and P/B stands at 6.39 and 0.61 (Sheng Siong in comparison has an unsettling P/E and P/BV of 21.61 and 4.43). Dividends have also grown consistently, with the dividend for 2014 yielding 6.86% as of 31st Oct - way above the market average of 3%, and comparable with the REITS. The Graham number is $2.09 (if you subscribe to value investing). The company has a strong dividend payout policy, having consistently paid dividends every year since 1992. It is notable that the dividends have consistently grown especially over the last 5 years (source: http://sgxdata.pebbleslab.com/index.asp?m=2& NC=M01) Sheng Siong has received much hype from being in the spotlight of brokerages, despite unattractive valuations. Metro Hldgs on the other hand remains attractively undervalued, owing to a lack of attention on the stock. Could the spotlight be on Metro Hldgs one day? Perhaps, and that might make it a good trading bet. However, growth prospects and fundamentals alone is enough to attract a value investor like myself.

Metro ups stake in Top Spring Int'lDepartment store operator Metro Holdings is deepening its investment into the property sector. The group announced yesterday that it is acquiring a 13.66% stake in Hong Kong listed Chinese developer Top Spring International Holdings (TSI) for HK$528.7 million (S$85.7 million), and plans to further raise its stake in TSI going forward. The cash transaction translates into Metro paying HK$3.35 for each TSI share it is acquiring, compared with the HK$3.07 that TSI last traded at on Dec 5 - a day before the deal was announced. Metro said the price took into account " a price premium for a significant single shareholding block" . The stake, to be sold by some minority shareholders, will lift Metro's current 6.11% holding in Top Spring to 19.77%. The group said yesterday that it has plans to increase its stake to at least 20%, and may seek a board seat on TSI, though these moves are dependent on market conditions. ...last: $0.840... |

Metro Holdings posts 81% fall in Q4 net profit to $14.9milMetro Holdings, the property and retail group, said it posted a 81% drop in net earnings to $14.9 million for its fourth quarter ended March 31, 2013 (4QFY2013) from a year ago. This sharp fall was due to a decline in other income to $5.4 million from $102.1 million in the fourth quarter of last year (4QFY2012) that included a $98.7 million gain on disposal of the group’s 50% stake in Metro City Beijing. ...recent high: $1.025 .... last done: $0.985.... |

The 6 cents dividend announced weeks ago and should be discounted in share price by now. After XD, share price will be adjusted accordingly and maybe be more than 6 cents. From past records , metro share price always adjusted more than dividend declared. Will it be exceptional this time ? After XD , what can shareholders expect ? No asset sales no special dividend. JO prefers to conserve cash for his future fat remunerations. |
