Parc Olympia is now 93% sold!

More share buybacks done by the management!

The company has been consistently buying back their shares around 29.5-30.5cents in the past few weeks.

Anyone researching this company and found any hidden valuations?

They received some SINGAPORE PRESTIGE BRAND AWARD recently. But don't think this adds any value?

i don't know about you but i have this since IPO. Which is about 20+ years ago. This Co keeps on "financial engineering" that only benefited the KOH & Family. Go and check their history.

Hi
Would appreciate if you can elaborate specifically how Koh and family does "financial engineering"?
I am currently looking at Koh Bros for a long term investment. There are several positives for the company, but the one thing I dont like is the low profit margins.
Other construction companies like Hock Lian Seng can get almost 4 times the net profit margin of Koh Bros.

Why bother, if you can't accept my answer already given.

This company is sitting on a gold mine. It has steady cashflows from the construction business and is probably waiting for the right time to divest of Sun Plaza and redevelop 338 Bukit timah road( which is located beside the Stevens MRT Station)

Wish what you said all came true. Have been waiting since IPO times. 20 years or more? Don't bother lah!
