Crescendo is looking for buyer for its 75 acres of industrial land at NCIP. Looking at the latest transaction @ rm 138 psf at SILC, NCIP land should sell at rm 150 psf, or rm 6.5 million per acre. (something like DongQuan to Shenzhen). So this 75 acres worth rm 488 million!

From Google Map, the lands are at the left side of Professional Testing Services Sdn Bhd. You should also take note Unibase Precast land (about 30 acres) is not included in the 75 acres mentioned above. Easily relocate to Jeram Batu and the land can be put into better use.

"Investment Highlights
• We initiate coverage on Crescendo Corp with a fair value of RM3.50/share on a 45% discount to our NAV of RM6.36/share. Johor-based Crescendo is the premier developer of industrial property in the state.
• We forecast core earnings to accelerate from RM56m in FY13 (Jan) to RM85mil in FY14F, and rising by a CAGR of 34% to RM134mil in FY16F. This robust growth is underpinned by sustained strong demand for its flagship Nusa Cemerlang Industrial Park (NCIP: 523 acres) where it has already pre-built RM220m of industrial property ready to launch.
• Crescendo offers an attractive direct leverage to the ascendancy of industrial property in Johor where the relocation of SMEs from Singapore would accentuate demand expansion. As it is, SMEs from Singapore account for 56% of its sales at NCIP.
• The entry of Singapore's industrial park developer Ascendas (via a JV with UEM Land) to develop Gerbang Nusajaya – located next to NCIP, would further underscore newsflow momentum by broadening the clientele base.
• NCIP aside, Crescendo would also be fast tracking the development of its new industrial project – Bandar Cemerlang (1,300 acres), where it is setting aside some 500 acres for industrial property. Maiden launch is expected by 1H 2014. The imminent launch of Bandar Cemerlang would more than double its presales of industrial property, currently coming from NCIP and Taman Perindustrian Cemerlang (TPC).
• This aside, Crescendo also has one strategic parcel of land within the Tebrau area (CLSB: Sg.Rekoh) where the development potential is very high due to its highly populated catchment areas. Reclamation works for this 222-acre site is expected to complete year-end.
• We are forecasting its presales to surge from <RM200mil in FY13 to at least RM500m in FY14F and RM700m in FY15F, consistent with management presales target of RM1.2bil over the next two years. This is supported by high pre-tax margins of ~40% for its industrial properties.
• Balance sheet is strong with FY14F net gearing of just 8%. Crescendo has a decent dividend policy of 30%. At current levels, its dividend yield is forecast at 5%-6%.
• Valuation is very attractive from both the earnings and assets standpoint. It is trading at 10% discount to its historical book value of RM3.05/share, and a deeper discount of 57% to our NAV of RM6.36/share. FD FY14F16F PE is only at 6x-9x, with EPS CAGR of 34%. "

Above is an extract from AmResearch by Hoy Ken Mak on 8 May 2013. Good to read the whole report to get better understanding how Crescendo performed over the past years. Bearing in mind NCIP land was valued at rm 18 per sq ft since 2013, and the land is now sold for rm 150 per sq ft few days ago.

Waiting for spicy dividends. Recalled last qr "Based on the committed property sales of RM260 million as at 20 September 2024, including land sales at NCIP of RM115.9 million."

6 days ago

Still has sizeable landbank. Crescendo's earning visibility is supported by yet-to-be recognised profits from land sale deals in NCIP, including RM115.9m from 20.5-acres land sales (SPA effective in Sep) and RM120.1m from another 18.4-acres land sales in Dec. With about 27 acres of landbank remaining in NCIP, we believe the company is poised to capitalise on further lucrative land sales at a premium (vis-a-vis its low acquisition costs), driven by the strong demand for data centre infrastructure in Johor. Beyond NCIP, the company still has a total land bank of 2,468 acres across Johor, with 43% of it (1,065 acres) strategically located within Iskandar Malaysia. With the robust property demand in Iskandar Malaysia driven by the development of JS-SEZ, we think this should augur well for Crescendo.

Crescendo makes 12.3 sen for Q3, that does not include latest land sales 115 million and 120 million.

Barring major geopolitical uncertainties and economic headwinds, the Board is positive and confident of the prospects of the Group's upcoming new property development and anticipates that the Group will be operating at optimum capacity in the coming years. Based on the committed property sales of RM288 million as at 23 December 2024, including land sale at NCIP of RM120 million, the Board expects the Group to have a very good year in FY2025.

The corporate proposal announced but not completed as at 23 December 2024 is the disposal by Panoramic Industrial Development Sdn Bhd ("PID"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, of a vacant land for a total cash consideration of RM115.9 million through the execution of a conditional sale and purchase agreement ("SPA") on 12 July 2024.
