Tat Hong gets boost from plan to spin off China tower crane business

SINGAPORE (Sept 22): Shares of Tat Hong Holdings ( Valuation: 2.00, Fundamental: 0.35) are outperforming the broader Singapore equities market, after Singapore Exchange said the crane and heavy equipment supplier's plan to spin off its China tower crane rental business complies with the exchange's listing rules.

The company says its plan to list its China arm is in the preliminary stages.

Some analysts say spinning off the business would be positive because it would give Tat Hong an additional source of funding and allow it to focus more on improving its core businesses in Australia and Asean.

Tat Hong Equipment Service Co. Ltd. cancels its proposed listing on TWSE

82%-owned subsidiary of Tat Hong Holdings Ltd (the "Company"), Tat Hong Equipment Service Co. Ltd.("THES"), has informed the Taiwan Stock Exchange ("TWSE") that it will not proceed with the listing of its shares on TWSE.

The Company is of the opinion that the current global economic environment as well as the weak and volatile global equity markets are not conducive for the listing of THES and that any valuation of THES at this point in time would not commensurate with its intrinsic value. Hence, it would not be in the shareholders’ interest to proceed with the proposed listing of THES under current conditions. The Company may or may not seek a listing of THES on TWSE or other stock exchange in the future and will keep shareholders informed of any material developments accordingly.

Tat Hong's share price has dropped to 35 cents since the announcement to issue rights! There's now not much benefit to the shareholders to subscribe to the rights. After ex-rights, the share price will likely drops below 33 cents!
Tat Hong's management should cancel the rights issue, and think seriously how to enhance shareholders value, instead of destroying the value of the shareholders!!!
my opinion is that the rights issue is more of a "no choice" decision because its lenders could have asked for partial payment of principal prior to rolling over to a new debt

Many companies of the SGX has over leveraged themselves in the past few years. This has resulted in interest expense eating into their thinning profits or banks just not willing to rollover 100% of their principal. We have seen many companies attempting to dilute their existing shareholders to resolve their debt/cashflow problems - Yongnam, Rickmers Maritime, Noble, ASL Marine and Ezion.

It is likely the banks are starting to take away the umbrella leaving them no choice
End of the line, rights issue will fail and bank will make call??

Change the rights issue price to $0.20. So cheap that pp wont sell or feel too painful to cut loss.
