I think the interest is coming from the SYF transaction for the Sg Long Cheras land in which they will pay RM31.08m to the landowners for the 8.09375 acre parcel. This works out to RM88.15 per sqft.
Symlife has 419acres there valued at RM137.4m or RM7.52 per sqft. Using the RM88 per sqft benchmark, this land is worth an amazing RM1.606B or RM5.18/share on an undiluted basis or RM3.85/share with the warrants fully converted.
You can see why Symlife is generating some interest.
Symphony Life may trend higher after its latest climb above the MYR1.07 levels. A bullish bias may be present if the stock holds above the MYR1.07 level, whereby traders may buy. The target price is set at MYR1.19, followed by MYR1.30. Failure to maintain above the MYR1.07 level may see the stock fall back to its sideways trend. Support may be found at MYR1.02, whereby traders may cut losses upon a breach on closing.
The problem for symlife was on latest project been delay and sales can't credit into pocket. It make the unbill sale reduce alot(2xxmil). So no looking good on next q result but hope got a better div given. So short term investor may feel boring on this stock, for long term investor, this stock may give u 100% return for 1-2year holding time.
The going price is RM300/sqft for Cheras commercial land. Symlife owns a 10.6acre parcel valued at only RM9.03M which is about RM19.6/sqft. At RM300/sqft, this piece is valued in the region of RM138.5M but it could higher because of the proximity to Tesco or RM0.45sen/share.
Currently there are ongoing projects I think, but yes, some that I read about in bursa announcement there were delays, so maybe the results may not be substantially higher, but still good perhaps. The last time I work out I thought they will be taking in the final payment for the Sg Long land (abt 20mil) but it didn't appear in the last Q results. Not sure why. And yes, an investor will reap more benefits holding on for now. The Tesco land is quite substantial and appreciate more in time, wonder if they have plans for it.
SHL's Sg Long land is worth RM130/sqft per the writeup below. Now, weren't we just discussing using the RM88/sqft benchmark. At RM130/sqft, you do the math. No wonder PublicInvest did highlight to buy some smallcaps like Symlife.
160-acre golf course land in Bdr. Sg. Long. The group owns about 433 acres landbank (for property development purpose) in Selangor, Negeri Sembilan spanning across Bdr. Sg Long (48 acres), Semenyih (118 acres), Alam Budiman, (20 acres), Rawang, (10 acres), Batang Kali (88 acres), Serendah (48 acres) and Parit Tinggi (101 acres). However, the most interesting part is its 160-acre golf course land in Bdr. Sg. Long, sitting on a book value of RM18 psf. Management has earlier hinted its interest of redeveloping and monetizing the golf course one day. Based on the market value of RM130 psf, we believe this piece of land could be worth at least RM900m given the matured township status in Bdr. Sg Long. We also understand that its limited memberships would make it easier for the company to redevelop the golf course land anytime in the future. Currently, we think its land bank and properties stand at a market value of not less than RM1bn and could potentially double to RM2bn (if the redevelopment plan starts to kick in), which is a far cry as compared to its current market capitalization of RM561m.

The Sg Long big piece of land and the Tesco Cheras land should appreciate a lot as the current MRT construction will eventually enhance its value. The valuation of Rm88psf (Sg Long land) and Rm300psf (Tesco Cheras) might be too low. It may be much higher now.
Thx james70. Current valuations is undemanding and still cheap. I read the 2013 Annual Report, they have converted the Sg Long land from agriculture land and so is paying a higher land premium, so I suppose they have plans to develop it. I believe the company is quietly working on its plan, to build a township (400+ acres) in phases. It will have a big impact on the company. Just imagine Protasco 100 acres - GDV Rm10bil.
Firebird2, as it is Symlife has lots of potential and is deemed rather under valued. I hope PublicInvest Research will come out with a write up on it soon as it did for SAB. The latter's price skyrocketed once they started covering it.
james70, yes symlife do have a lot of potential. I saw the bursa announcement, seems management team is very active and not sitting down doing nothing. Soon, research analyst will start to ocver it because of its potential. My hope is that they be able to realized the values that the company possess like SAB as you say.
Good potential?? have you all notice this few day volume is bigger? Symlife got land bank at good area is very old story already, it is not moving after its touch 1.19... now already move up 3 days, good sign and feel like something coming ~~
Not a bad deal for Symlife. Selling a 15.81% stake in a jointly controlled entity for RM56.2M. So this would further beef up their coffers and reduce their gearing to 18%. From the profit standpoint, this would yield them a RM23.2m profit or +8.2sen in the EPS.
Financial effect on the disposal 1. Increase EPS by 8.2 for FYE 31.3.2015 2. Net Gearing ratio from 28% to 18% 3. Gross gain of RM 23.2m for FYE 31.3.2015
It says that net gearing will reduce from 0.28 to 0.18 (before deducting cash). Quite a substantial amount. Based on Q1 balance sheet, its borrowing was RM304mil (RM253mil ST + RM51mil LT). At 0.18x gearing, the borrowing will reduce to RM195mil. Almost RM100mil. I wonder how these borrowing is booked in their balance sheet if they hold only 18% in the JV
Anyway I salute to the new management of Symlife for being able to turnaround the a debt laden company (in fact their borrowing was Rm500mil) to what it is right now. These undervalued company will rise after stake disposal in JV is completed. with lower debt and some working capital to start with, it is exciting to see what is ahead of this company.
