SINGAPORE: Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp (OCBC), Singapore' s second-biggest lender, plans to raise S$3.3 billion via a rights issue to strengthen its capital following its recent acquisition of Hong Kong' s Wing Hang Bank in a deal worth about US$4.95 billion (S$6.16 billion).

The bank said early on Monday (Aug 18) it will sell 440 million shares at S$7.65 a share, which is a 25 per cent discount to its last share price of S$10.20 on Friday. The offer will be made to shareholders on the basis of one rights share for every eight existing shares held.

OCBC successfully gained control of Wing Hang last month, giving it a bigger presence in Greater China. The bank currently derives the bulk of its business in Singapore, with Malaysia and Indonesia accounting for the bulk of its international business.

Merrill Lynch, HSBC and JPMorgan are joint lead managers and underwriters for the deal.

 

OCBC' s management has set aside up to S$50 million to integrate Wing Hang' s operations. No redundancies are planned but the bank may look to sell non-core assets.

so (10.31*8+7.65)/9 = 10.14-10.15

Sorry Kahdeve, my broker just called back.

She clarified that if I have less than 8 lots, they will give me the shares in proportion.

Eg I have 2, I get to subscribe 250shares. $7650/4 = $1413

So no need to sell.

OCBC proposes S$3.37b rights issue to fund Wing Hang acquisition
 


Winghang1808


 


OCBC on Monday announced a S$3.37 billion rights issue, which will go towards funding its acquisition of Hong Kong' s Wing Hang Bank.

It has proposed to sell 440 million new shares at S$7.65 on the basis of one rights share for every eight existing shares.

The issue price represents a 25 discount to the closing price of S$10.20 per share on August 15, 2014.

OCBC had earlier guided that the S$6.2 billion offer for the Hong Kong bank - which will be fully taken over by the Singapore lender - will be funded through a mix of existing cash, new debt, and equity

nim= net interest margins.      US is raising interest rates next year, there is now a debate on how much, a lot depends on employment and inflation.    How much is OCBC committed in terms of fixed rates for loans?    When cost of funds increases, NIM gets hit badly which would affect profitability.    Remember OCBC grew this round on loans mostly and whilst it is a strength in low interest rate environment, it becomes an albatross when rates rise.          A bank that is focused on cash management and fee income wouild do a lot better in a higher interest rate environment.

There could be a scramble for deposits next year if interest rates rises and loan driven banks need the deposit base to fund their assets.    Interbank funding is too fluid and risky, the Koreans know this very well.

Do keep a close watch on these issues:

Raising funds for the Wing Hang bank purchase

HK property mkt

Their Chief Risk Officer is leaving, and is replaced by someone from Deutsche bank (OCBC has won accolades for risk mgt)

NIM (net interest income)

Believe that OCBC share price would rally up, given that all the sell queues are crumbling like a pack of cards. 

In the mid term, watch for above.   

In the long term my personal feeling is that much depends on the mgt and their risk team.    Remember Dao Heng, Wing Hang could run through the same course.  There is no POSB to save OCBC.    Do remember this.

I am a swing trader, therefore I do not stay long on a share.      But LT investors do need to watch out for those pressure points.
