MFG Integration - Special Dividend/Capital reduction

Summary:
1) Recently they received the 1st escrow amount of around $7M (extra cash, does not affect the cash amount they company is currently holding) plus tiny left over amount, they declared 3.3 cents. Coming Friday will be last day of "CD".
2) The 2nd escrow amount of around $8.4M (again this is extra cash amounting to 3.5 cents) will be received before/on Aug 2020. So another CD of 3.5 cents will be declared next year Aug.
3) Capital reduction and a CD of 8.5 cents will be declared on coming Monday when the Court approve the scheme which is almost certain.
4) After distributing the CD of 8.5 cents, the company will have a NTA of 10.14 cents which consists of mainly CASH + YISHUN industrial properties without any debts. Meaning u are looking at a company that is technically worth pure cash of 10 cents. Their Yishun properties is valued even more recently but the NTA of 10 cents valued the Yishun properties at an earlier date which is much lower than the current valuation. So in actual fact the NTA should be more than 10.14 cents.
5) Assuming the current share price of 22 cents. After getting your 3.3 cents on 17 July this year, u going to get 8.5 cents pretty soon after around end of July. Then after getting 3.5 cents next Aug, it means u are paying 22 cents - 3.3 cents - 8.5 cents - 3.5 cents = 6.7 cents for a CASH company that is technically worth at least 10 cents. So expect the share price to trade near the CASH Value of 10 cents, maybe around 9.5 cents..
6) U are looking at the profit of 9.5 - 6.7 cents / 6.7 cents = 42% profit if hold for 1 year.

Is this 42% profit worth the wait of 1 year? DYODD .. Cheers

court hearing today. Hope by end of the day they will announce the CD of 8.5 cents

EX CD the share price will trade around 11 cents next Monday.

By next August, there will be another 3.5 cents dividend.

And hopefully they will monetise their yishun industrial property which is worth around 6 cents.

So hopefully by next year we are seeing a total dividend of 9.5 cents and a remaining company worth net cash of 5 cents + a CEM business.. fingers crossed..

Divads, i believe the 2 Yishun properties are valued at $12 m, or 5.1 cents per share.
I don't think they should be sold yet because they provide much needed cashflow from rental for MIT's P&L to look decent. The contract mfrg business has yet to report a profit (but could be not too far away). In the meantime, these properties are discounted by the market (as applies to all property counters), so the discount can be 0.5 book value.

Regardless, at 10.6 cents now, MIT is a steal given it has cash of 5 cents a share + next year's 3.5 cent dividend + Yishun properties + CEM business (which hopefully can start to turn in profit next year)

Ya, the yishun properties are valued at $12M but only carry value (in financial statement and NTA) of $8M.

And current NTA is about 10.6 cents consisting of cash + yishun properties with no debt> share price of 10.1 cents.

Another 3.5 cents cash (dividend) which is in the Escrow account and not considered in the NTA will be available latest Aug 2020.

So after receiving 3.5 cents dividend next year, it could be like paying 6.5 cents for a company having NTA of 10.6 cents consisting purely of cash + the yishun properties which is valued at a much higher price than the book value so technically the NTA should be around 12 cents. And hopefully they can find a buyer willing to pay 12 cents for their yishun properties and they can sell it and declare another dividend. Keeping fingers crossed.
