Some interesting movements in BBR's share price in the first couple of hours of trading this morning .........in quite some volume ..............
BBR's share price is up ~ 7% to S$ 0.23, volume 162,000 shares (very high by BBR standards). I haven't seen any announcements or broker calls in the last day or so. Am I missing something?

Sorry if my posting on this VB thread late this morning raised expectations for existing BBR shareholders. Only a further 19,000 BBR shares were traded in the remainder of the session, after my posting. At least BBR's share price showed a respectable ~ 4.6% gain over Thursday's close, up one cent.

Based on the analyst report from DMG on today, BBR will be recognizing 25% of sale revenue of "Lush on Holland Hill," in Q3 2012. See the following for more information.
Scoop of the Day: We met up with BBR’s management recently with the
following key takeaways: 1) Management is
optimistic on its general
construction and specialized engineering businesses, given the positive
construction demand, especially from the public sector segment as the
government ramps up educational facilities, rail infrastructure and public
housing projects. The group is currently sitting on a healthy orderbook of
$773m for delivery through 2015. More recently, the group clinched a
$153m contract from Ascendas Land for the construction of a mixed use
development at Fusionoplis Place in Buona Vista, 2) On the property front,
the group has completed Lush on Holland Hill, with T.O.P. obtained in 3Q12
while its other development project, Bliss@Kovan, is 85% sold. Revenue
recognition, however, will only commence when construction gets
underway, 3) BBR is gunning for a share of the contract pie in the upcoming
tender award for the Thomson Line. Given its track record in the civil
engineering field, we are optimistic that it could add to its orderbook from
potential contract wins. We see a stronger year ahead for the group in FY13
(net profit + 75% y/y) on the back on higher contributions from construction
and property. The stock is trading at attractive valuation of 3.1x FY13 P/E.
We maintain BUY with a TP of $0.35, based on 5x FY13 P/E. (Lynette Tan)

Thank you for this ngcheeki - maybe this broker analyst report explains why today's traded volumes of BBR's shares was the highest in over 13 months, i.e. since the dark days of August 2011. Can't see another driver for such volumes.

Having taken a good look into DMG's latest report dated 2Oct12.....
http://www.remisiers.org/cms_images/rese...12-BBR.pdf
I actually find the writer Lynette Tan's target price pegged at $0.35 on the low side, as BBR as a well-established and reputable construction company with specialised engineering expertise and a large backlog of contracts, and quite a lot of assured and yet-to-be-booked profits from its 3 residential property projects - the remaining unsold units in the completed Nassim Hill, the fully-sold Lush on Holland Hill, and the substantially sold Bliss @ Kovan - should have a fair value of at least at a reasonable premium above its latest (30Jun12) NAV at $0.33/share.
While I very much agree with dydx's views on Lynette Tan's understated BBR target price (and I don't understand why OSK-DMG have reduced the TP from their previous review and I note they don't give a reason either), I also feel compelled to acknowledge the profound and positive impact her OSK-DMG Analyst report appears to have had on the liquidity of BBR's shares. During today's SGX trading session, for example, some 937,000 BBR shares changed hands - easily the highest in almost fourteen months. Until this week, recent daily volumes averaged in the 50,000 - 60,000 shares range - so this week's liquidity is a marked improvement.
I found it interesting that Lynette is positive regarding dividend prospects and for further order-book building.
