I always in an opinion that Mr. Charoen has one of the best business team with him, not a "garang (translation: foolhardy)" team in investment, but a "value investor-like" team. Big Grin

A good day for FCL today with healthy volume.

Slow but steady featuring on the part of Towkay definitely has an positive impact on the share price.

The company is picking up valuable "distress asset" in Europe, albeit a small venture. Will more be coming? Big Grin

likely a 3 star hotel but certainly something that must have fit in their vulture hunting criteria... v small $ but indicative that they are not just sitting there waiting for $ to drop from the sky.

Anyway, Towkay owns 88% of both F&N, FCL, his shrewed business moves will be more than align with minorities.

Investors are looking at distress assets in Europe, FCL shouldn't lag behind. Real estate assets fit well into FCL. I wouldn't be surprised to hear more from FCL on acquisitions in Europe. Big Grin

The following are the milestones that we have previously speculated in the building of FCL's track record as a listed entity:

i) divestment of 50% Changi City Point retail, that has since came through;

ii) the listing of Frasers Hospitality of which so far FCL has classified 3 "matured" assets ready for the imminent REIT - 50% share of Capri, Changi City, Fraser Suites Perth and Sydney. A successful listing of the new REIT will create another new platform for FCL to progressively asset light like Capland and Ascott REIT;

iii) the highly likely interim dividend that will be declared soon inline with FCL's track record as an unlisted entity under former parent F&N. As indicated in the introduction documents, FCL has a generous dividend policies as an unlisted entity. A interim dividend that follows a final dividends declared and paid shortly after its listing will be indicative of the continuation of FCL's generous dividend policies that stood at 50% of net profits for FY9/13 and reaffirmed its track record as a potential dividend yielder;

iv) how Thai Towkay intends to lift the free float of FCL once the 6 month moratorium to sell down his tight 88% holdings post 9 Jul 14. Given that FCL is ranked 7th (inclusive of HKLand and GLP) and 5th in terms of market cap (excluding HKLand and GLP), the eventual rise of FCL's free float will rekindle institutional interests in the big cap multi-platform property conglomerate especially when major indices decide to include FCL as one of the component stocks.

FCL has gotten most of its development strategy right so far and have locked up S$3bn worth of sales sufficient for progressive booking over next 3 years. The above expect timeline of events are likely to unfold over the next 6 - 9 months and FCL is likely to close its discount to book value of $2.15 (RNAV in excess of $2.50) over time.
