yes this private placement thing should be regulated more by cse. otherwise IPOs are not attractive for retailers as only big players just gain billions.

Regulators can't do anything about stupidity. All that's needed is for retailers to stop being stupid.

So if u take out these from profit, only 850Mn from the operation is reported ( 1.26 -0.313-0.021-0.0763) then the diluted EPS would be 0.43( 850Mn/1.954Bn shares, post IPO). Therefore issue PE @ 32X, this is fairly trading line with sector PE...

Further Book Value is only 2.77, then PBV is about 5x... Look at others in diversified sectors, out of these CARS & RICH are trading more than 5 times, others are pretty much attractive when comparing with EXPO..

So guys what do u think about EXPO in this scenario... whether we ( retailers) will benefit from this subscription...

Hi innam

When u see the prospectus page No 44, there is a statement that "There were no shares issued for two (02) years preceding the date of the prospectus". . Therefore CINV/WAPO, JKH and others will be able to sell even in first day.. SEC rule only will apply to the shares allotted after FEB 7 2011...

So there is high possibility these guys will dumb, when shares hit to mkt, Since these investors have been waiting for more than 2 years...
or else there should be some pre-agreement with these shareholders.

will see what will happen....

I just went through the prospectus and in page 43 they have given the shareholding structure subsequent to the IPO..

but the WAPO and CINV are not mentioned there. I think they have considerable amount of shares which should be mentioned in the list instead of grouping under "others"

What I heard was there were 7 packets of Rs.300mn bundles were issued in private placement, of which WAPO has got one. One other such party is Phoenix Ventures (those who got ODEL private placement shares and sold off subsequent to the listing) now they are not in the list, which means the shares trading in the gray market may have come from them.

My personal opinion on the business of Expo is big with huge potentials in the Logistic and Strategic Investment (BPO & APIIT ). but the PE seems to be high. by the way the share commence trading on mid of june,during which the next big down turn of the market is expected.

Refer table 11 on page 44 of Expo prospectus

JKH, CINV, Lanka Strategic Investments, Softlogic are among top 11 shareholders of Expo. CINV transferred shares to WAPO at a later date, after 25th March 2011.

Lanka Strategic is local arm of Logan Rockefeller Global Investments. Channa De Silva, formerly of SEC, heads local operation.

In total 317 million shares have been transferred in private deal at Rs6 per share.

When u take out the non recurring income PE is about 32x, which is pretty much high at initial trading stage. even if take the assumption that the institutional shareholder will hold for long term. I doubt about 130Mn shares representing for others category. I guess they will dump the shares event at IPO price. This we experienced from Union bank IPO as well....

Now calculate the fact that WAPO can easily book some profit by disposing these shares at 14-16 even dragging the counter down on first day itself..So u may not be able to book a good profit with it or u may have to hold onto it for a long time to realize a decent gain..

We dont have any guarantee over this, are we?
This is wat I've been thinking of this Expo now..

Hi small

How do think about EXPO industry/business model ( Mainly about Frights service.)

32x PE comes when you takes only 9 month earning, we have to annualize the 9month profit in order to calculate the correct PE. and the profit from non recurring items should also be assertained to MIs, so after these two adjustment only PE comes to 22x.

correct me if i'm wrong

I am not an expert in financial side but in your calculation -

If you deduct the non recurring items to get the diluted PBT and deducted same amount of income tax from diluted PBT is it correct or we have to recalculate income tax on diluted PBT ? Won't make much of a difference though ......please comment

Sorry... Yes true, to calculate PE, earning should be annualized. But i am sure, we do not consider MI portion to calculate the PE, since profit attributable to MI will not be belong to ordinary shareholders. But to calculate the enterprise value, we can consider the total earnings.

Even if annualized the earnings PE comes about 25x ...... ?

Look at the Current PE of the companies in diversified sector....

JKH 24.34X
HAYL 39.45X
RICH 15X
CTHR 60.00x
HHL 19.92X
SPEN 32X

Hence, Issue price @ 25x in initial stage is question.... Further my more concern is about the persons who bought the shares @ 6 and their trading behavior during the open session, If they will dump the shares, we will be in horrible situation.

I am not an expert in financial side but in your calculation -

If you deduct the non recurring items to get the diluted PBT and deducted same amount of income tax from diluted PBT is it correct or we have to recalculate income tax on diluted PBT ? Won't make much of a difference though ......please comment
`

dude,capital gain won't attract taxes in most cases i guess, so other two have very little impact to the tax.so i assumed that tax as given..anyway we are on the conservative side

Considering all facts It seems WAPO has a potential with follwing facts,
1. It is an investment insitute and they know how to get maximum profit from Expo private placement. so it is very very rare to sell their stake within a short period. ( think about what happend to PCH, ODEL, LGL IPOs . Those IPOs picked up after few months and gave a return more than 100%)
2. WAPO is highly speculative share and will be given a good return with high risk ( Pls don't burn your fingers and try to enter at the correct time). Since WAPO management is more care about their share holders)

yes this private placement thing should be regulated more by cse. otherwise IPOs are not attractive for retailers as only big players just gain billions.

Regulators can't do anything about stupidity. All that's needed is for retailers to stop being stupid.

Very true Tubal. If I'm desperate buy shares of this company I would be buying from the open market.
This time it is too risky to buy shares from the IPO due to this private placement.

Also 172 millions + 300 millions at the market. Neutral Neutral

Many investors look for open market.... already listed well known stocks are better than all these IPO. at the end small number of shares given for a large sum... waste of time and funds....

Thanks gaja.. yeah it seems EXPO never issued private placements just before the IPO unlike union bank IPO. . so 6 rupee private placement 2 years ago was not a problem for this IPO since then company might have grown lot. for example 2 years ago bfl trading at below 10 now at 480.

Yes Gaja.. Private placement is really helped to these company to restructure the balance sheet and to show good picture when it come to IPO. When u analyze the union Bank IPO and private placement, 15Mn shares were issued on IPO, I am not sure about the private placement nos. However in the very 1st day itself 17.5 Mn shares were traded between 38-45. so some of the investors who bought from private placement issue, would have sold even in 1st day itself.

I guess, same pattern will happen to EXPO also... Further the investors who bought from private placement have been waiting for long time ( 2 years). But Union bank private placement was taken place before 6 months of IPO. I guess..

However we do not tell anything in CSE.....

Happy Trading
