Wheelock and Co. privatized Hong Kong listed Wheelock Properties (Hong Kong) in 2010 at 140% premium.
Wheelock and Co. has every reason to privatize Wheelock Properties (Singapore), it is selling some office assets in Hong Kong and i think the best of of proceed shall go to privatize Wheelock (Singapore).
Let see if this happen in Q1-2016.
Not the first time it went to $1.4 and lower... 
I believe $1.4 is the bottom. You may not see it again.
Wheelock Q1 FY16's profits coming in at $11.1 million, kinda reflect the current state of property prices in season.

It DPS has been consistently higher than EPS , drawing on reserve to pay dividend .
I know Wheelock has a very clean balance sheet but one question, did they pay for extension charges for their unsold units in Scott Square? Or did they buy up and convert to service apartments?

Cant judge like that have to look at eps from 2009 until now. Property developer earnings are choppy.
Hi just did a write up on Wheelock Properties.
Its an interesting stock and the balance sheet is strong.
The only concern is the QC charges for Ardmore Three - Hopefully they sell all other 30 units soon.

I did a 50% discount on its Non-current Asset figure. However, it should be around $2.0 instead (30% discount).
Anyway realize there is insider buying in Sep. Not sure if it is already posted.
