Sheng Siong - Long-term growth intact but TP lowered to $0.78 post placement on EPS dilution
Sheng Siong's 120m new placement shares to investors at a placement price of S$0.67 will raise about S$80m in proceeds, which will be used to fund expansion in Singapore including acquiring new properties for outlet expansion. The Lim family's stake in SSG will be diluted from 69.4% to 63.8%. FY15F's EPS and DPS dilution will be approximately 8%. Cash hoard swells to >S$170m and net cash per share will improve to 11.6 ct/share. Our assumptions show a 1-2% increase in FY15F/FY16F earnings and 7%/6% reduction in EPS. Our TP, based on 25x FY15F earnings is consequently lowered to S$0.78 to largely reflect the dilution in EPS. We remain positive on the stock since long term growth will be underpinned by store expansion in Singapore and its recent announcement of planned expansion into Kunming China. Maintain Buy.

The ECB will also start buying asset backed securities to boost the flow of funding while stopping short of broad-based quantitative easing.
