x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	2QFY14 net profit slid 9.9% y/y to $2.7m, despite revenue climbing 3.4% to $10.5m. The increase came from a 62.8% spike in Securities revenue attributable to coupon payments and dividends received. Revenue sources from all other businesses fell. Gross margins slid from 58% to 57%. Interim dividend of 2¢ declared.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	This is a good move, if 2nd Chance is able to sell at the desired price. There is limited upside on SGP property. With rising interest rates, cash on hand will be king. Also it is time for 2nd Chance to tap into the growing spending power in SEA n India. There may be a special bonus in the plan.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Q. The Company has been buying back its shares at prices above the Net Asset Value (NAV), that is, at a premium. Shouldn’t the Company be buying back its shares at below NAV? There is a combination of factors contributing to the Company buying 20.572 million shares at an average price of 38.65 cents. As you are all aware the value of a Company is based not only on the NAV, but also on intangibles such as goodwill, branding, reputation etc., which can be even more valuable than the tangible assets. 1. In case of our Company we are of the opinion that – a) Our gold and apparel businesses are well established. We enjoy market leadership, a track record of high profits, brand reputation, goodwill etc all of which will definitely be valued much higher than their NAV. b) The fair valuation of our properties as at 31 August 2012 and the recent past months is well below the amount that buyers are actually prepared to pay on a “willing buyer willing seller” basis. This seems to be a norm now for all types of properties. Hence again the intrinsic value of the group is much higher than the NAV. In the light of the above, we believe that the average price of our share buyback, i.e., 38.65 cents, is still below the real value of the Company and as such a “value buy”. 2. Currently, the cost of funds used to buy back the shares is 1.2% as compared to the cost of the share capital, which is the dividends that would be paid out on the shares this works out to be approximately 8%. 3. Another point in favour is that 118 million outstanding warrants are expected to be converted which will generate $37.76 million and bring down further our already low gearing. So we decided to invest in the Company’s own shares but at the same time cap the share buy-back price currently at 39.5 cents. We will be selling the shares back at 40 cents assuming the new warrants are converted. 1234567      ( Date: 19-Oct-2012 19:36) Posted: Q.
