Major shareholder of A&M Realty hiving off shares to institutional investors?

PETALING JAYA: The major shareholder of A&M Realty Bhd is likely to place out up to 6% of the company to institutional shareholders to loosen the liquidity of the property developer.
Sources said executive chairman Datuk Ng Thian Hock and his private vehicle Dalta Industries Sdn Bhd will place out 20 million shares and a further 10 million at between RM1.20 and RM1.25 to funds. At RM1.20, the total placement shares will raise between RM24mil and RM36mil.
The remaining shares held by Ng and Dalta cannot be sold for up to six months under a lock-up period. However, Ng and Dalta could seek a waiver from the executing investment bank to sell down at RM1.40 and above to new interested investors.
The source said this would help to stabilise the new share price.

On whether A&M would channel these funds to any of its projects, the source said that was not the main intention as the developments were already well-financed.
“It is a net cash company, so this share placement is really to recognise value and get on to the radar of potential institutional and high net worth individual investors going forward.”
The company, which operates in the Klang Valley, is undervalued although its ongoing and future projects boast a total gross development value (GDV) of RM1.9bil, according to a fund manager.
Currently, the company is primarily held by the management and retail investors, which the source explained, was “holding back” the group’s effectiveness to price its shares.
“There is value in A&M which is not reflected in its share price and the company believed it was the right time to communicate that to funds,” the source said.
He added that the share placement would encourage institutional participation which would increase pricing efficiency.
With the placement, the group expects to increase its institutional shareholding by 10 to 20 times.
The source said a group of fund managers visited A&M’s Carey Island golf and resort project last week and “many have come away positive on the company.”
“The funds are showing strong interest and these are insurance funds and unit trusts which tend to invest for the long term,” the source said.
A&M’s near-term growth catalyst is its Amverton Cove Golf and Island Resort development on Carey Island (a total GDV of RM737mil for the first phase).
Going forward, the completion of the SKVE-Carey Island interchange in 2015/2016 will connect the island to Puchong. The enhanced accessibility will have a spillover effect on properties on Carey Island as well as surrounding townships and those along the SKVE.
Its other flagship developments include Amverton Park in Bukit Kemuning and upcoming Amverton Hill at Sungai Buloh. It also has projects in Mont’Kiara and Klang, called Amverton Kiara and Taman Sentosa respectively.
A&M has also embarked on landbanking, having bought 145 acres in Sungai Buloh, 5km off the former Rubber Research Institute land now being developed as Kwasa Damansara township. The group also has another 180 acres in Morib.
RHB Investment Bank is said to be working on the share placement. When enquired, director and head of regional equity capital markets Gan Kim Khoon did not deny this.
The investment bank has been increasingly focused on property companies, among its deals recently were Titijaya Land Bhd’s initial public offering (IPO), SBC Corp Bhd’s rights issue, LBS Bina Group Bhd’s share placement and the upcoming Iskandar Waterfront Holdings Bhd’s IPO.

A&M

A&M - Awesome and Majestic

The US market had reacted in a superbly bullish manner after Yellen sticks on to the promised of reducing the quantitative easing by handling a USD 10 billion reduction in the monthly bond purchases. As of now, the DJIA is partying hard with more than +100 as the US economy recovers in a faster pace than expected. I believe this plan will further drive more fund back to the US, hence resulting in a stronger USD in the coming days. While the US market heads for recovery,how will the emerging market react?

Interestingly, I would like to bring to your interest - A&M, known as A&M Realty Bhd (Stock Code 5959). This little known company in the older days will not be staying low profile soon as the harvesting season had finally reached their door step on their prize assets, featuring Carey Island, Jugra, Selangor.

Let's have a quick glance at the technical chart of A&M Realty.
The price had recently saw some activities in January 2014 and consolidated lower for a couples of month after a series of bearish sentiment in the KLSE market. While consolidation had seen saturation at this level, I believe that A&M will be look set to penetrate into a new level to find it's base soon, hence, will be anticipating a great volume to participate in the market.

So probably you might be thinking, what could be so great about A&M prized asset - Carey Island? Carey Island is strategically located at the south of the radiantly busy Port Klang, where Hong Kong mega tycoon Li Ka Shing is part of the owner for the biggest port operator at Port Klang, dubbed Westport.
The current infrastructure development with SKVE (South Klang Valley Expressway) had connected the Kuala Lumpur to Carey Island in a straight drive. Driving westward from Puchong to Carey Island using SKVE will only takes approximately 30 minutes. While NKVE had brought up places like Setia Alam in Shah Alam, the connectivity of SKVE straight to Carey Island is liken to a golden bridge in bringing up the value of the land there.

A&M is sitting on a massive 2000 acres at Carey Island which was bought more than 30 years ago at a price of less than RM1 per square feet, and had not been revalued for years since they last bought. Analyst would suggest that each square feet to be worth around RM50, which will put up a staggering figure of RM 4.2b worth of land now. With 365m shares issued, the land itself will be knocking at RM11.50 per share. Skeptically slashing it by 50% still put the figure at RM5.75, which is a 82% discount towards it's current share price.

The group is not shy of some other assets as they are currently sitting on
- Cash and Cash Equivalents of RM93.6m (RM 0.26 per share)
- Bukit Kemuning, Shah Alam, 20 acres
- Morib, 180 acres
- Mont' Kiara, 3 acres

Driven by the Datuk Ng Thian Hock and his family, the group had a diversified business activities ranging from Oil Palm Plantation, Hotel Management and Automotive Spare Parts. The Ng family owned more than 70% of shareholding in A&M Realty, which is also the major owner in HIL  Industry Berhad, a cash rich company with quite a number of property and land.

The current financial statement in A&M will see an increase in the EPS with FYE 2013 at 8.79 cents behind a revenue of RM141.8m as NTA stood at RM 1.50 with most of the lands and property not valued as long as 30 years back. The company should be announcing a dividend of 1.5 cents a share in the coming days.


A&M will be looking set to focus on Amverton Cove with a RM10 GDV over 15 years as well as Amverton Park in Bukit Kemuning with a GDV of RM315m, a figure big enough to be able to keep the company busy. As of current, Amverton Cove Golf and Islan Resort is completed.

In my opinion, A&M will be very prospective in the coming near term with more superb surprises to come as Datuk Ng and the family deliver. Datuk Ng is on the process of injecting a 145 acre land in Sungai Buloh through Unik Sejati Sdn Bhd, which will further boost the value of the company with the current hot development in Sungai Buloh. To add sugar on honey, there are major plans from Hong Kong tycoon Li Ka Shing on developing the northern region of Carey Island for it's business expansion.


A&M will definitely a worthwhile stock for a long term investment based on
- 2000 acres of land in Carey Island, with a land valued of more than RM2b (based on RM5.75 psf), and Amverton Cove which is a notable RM10b GDV for 15 years.
- Amverton Park at Bukit Kemuning, 20 acres with current GDV of RM315m
- Mont' Kiara, 3 acres.
- RM93.6m cash and cash equivalents
- Datuk Ng Thian Hock asset injection - 145 acre of Sungai Buloh land
- Hong Kong Tycoon, Li Ka Shing business expansion planning at Carey Island

A&M should be look set to challenge RM 1.20 in a short term, and a longer tenure prospect will see the stock driving up to RM 1.50 to RM 1.70 in the coming days.

Joining the game of leaving out? You decide.

Bone's short term TP: RM 1.20

Cheers and have a nice day.

  1. Ng said he bought 10 acres there for about RM100,000. Today it’s worth RM2mil.

    Based on that, 2,000 acres is worth rm400mil, why say worth rm4.2bil?

    1. He bought 10 acres for RM100000 is his own personal investment which had brought him interest in real estate subsequently.

      And that interest made him venturing into Real Estate in 1978 where A&M Realty is founded.

    2. Rm2mil divides by 10 is rm200k per acre.

      Rm200k x 2000 acres is only rm400mil.

      Why stated rm4.2bil

      Thats what i mean.
  2. Is 2 different plot of land.
    That 10 acres is referring to the land at Teluk Pulai, Klang.

    The 2000 acre is Carey Island.
