At current level and overhang removed and the no need to fear atmosphere nearly established, it takes just a piece of good news or none at all to appreciate the value.

The price is still pretty depressed due to institutional players' accumulation operation. But this is good as it allows late-comers an opportunity to buy-in before the run.

18 Responses to “Reject STX OSV Offer At $1.22”

  1. Remember that Wheelock sold their SC Global shares in their privatization bid at < than their purchase price?
    Shit happens!

    • Hi so1trg, unfortunately yes it happens. However, the free float for SC Global is lower than STX OSV. Another key point is that SC Global offer is a significant premium 49% over the last traded price before the announcement and 71% over the 12 months weighted average price. Here STX OSV offer is a significant discount to last traded and weighted average price.

      • Out of curiousity, in your opinion n experience, do you think STX OSV will ever come down to the offer price of Financanteri in the near term?

        • Hi so1trg, it really depends on many factors. Such as if the free float is low, whether the other bigger shareholders are selling the stakes and so on. For companies with low free float less than 20%, the chances are quite high for a forced delisting. For STX OSV, free float is higher at about 30%.

  2. Gd morning Calvin. What does all this mean? Would pple like us who have invested in the stock be at risk now? What potentially will happen and the impact on our investment? Thanks!

    • Hi Diana, as of now no. All the analysts have predicted that the general offer will not get sufficient investors to agree to the price. Remember to do your part as well! In the worst case scenario, the free float reduces to less than 10% then they can force remaining minority shareholders to tender their shares at $1.22.

  3. Hi Calvin,

    So is it advisable to buy STX OSV at the currrent price of 1.285?

    • Hi YKH, it is really up to you. As I have mentioned the downside is $1.22 if the general offer goes through. However, the valuation for the company is worth much higher than that and all the analysts are of the opinion that the general offer will not be accepted as the price is too low.

  4. I will do my part. Period

  5. Hi Calvin,
    Thanks very much for your post. I will surely reject the general offer, as instructed by you. FYI, the last 6-mth average TP is $1.91 from online sources.
    You mentioned “In the worst case scenario, the free float reduces to less than 10%. Then they can force remaining minority shareholders to tender their shares at $1.22.”
    What exactly does this statement mean? What is free float, and the significance of < 10%? Also, what can cause this situation to happen, and will there be a high or low potential of this happening?
    Sorry for asking, but too technical for me to understand. Thanks very much.

    • Hi jojo, thanks!

      Based on the listing rules, a listed company cannot stay listed with free float below 10%. Therefore, once free float falls below 10%, the acquirer can force minority shareholders to accept its offer price. Free float is the percentage of shares held by the public investors, excluding the strategic shareholders.

      As of now, the consensus among analysts is that the offer will not go through. That is of course unless the current public investors don’t understand the value and sell because they think the stock price might go lower.

  6. Hi Calvin, I will reject the offer. Anyway why does the website of STX OSV say that DBS is their largest shareholder?

    1 DBS Nominees Pte Ltd. 861,506,827 73.01

    http://www.stxosv.com/investor/stockinformation/shareholders/Pages/default.aspx

    • Hi Samuel, DBS Nominees is a nominee shareholder who is holding the stocks on behalf of the actual owner. This is governed by a custodial agreement, so the actual owner remains unknown to the public.

  7. Hi Calvin,

    If i use Jaya, ASL Marine and Marco Polo using average 8x PER to compare with STXOSV, i believe share price could be value at min $1.5.

    As for Fincantieri , my guess is i dont think it will go thrgh at 1.22. It just a mandatory procedure to perform as per listing compliance. They do not show intention to acquire up to 100% therefore maintaining their low GO price.

    Well, having say all the positive side i would like to ask your view and reaffirm some negative side in investing in STXOSV

    -Fundamentally, do you think STXOSV is worth investing.

    -Shipping is in a down cycle. Mgmt has in previous report stated that there are not much enquiry as anticipated

    -However given the persistence shipping cycle downturn, im afraid near to mid term prospect is not so bright.

    Vested and would like to ask for your view.

    Thanks
    Sam

    • Hi Samuel,

      I am also of the opinion that the GO won’t go through. If they really wanted to take it private, they would need to revise their offer.

      STX OSV is not a standard ship builder. It builds specialized vessels known as OSVs which are used generally in the offshore oil & gas industry. They include AHTS, PSVs, OSCVs etc. So the important factor is oil & gas rather than shipping. Most of the customers are OSV operators such as Farstad and DOF.

      As of now, offshore oil & gas remains strong as seen by the strong book orders of Keppel Corp, Semb Corp for rigs. So naturally OSVs will be required to service the rigs. Additionally, the STX OSVs are highly complex vessels which are not easily replicated by competitor yards, giving them a competitive advantage.

  8. Hi Calvin,

    I really would like to thank you for writing this post.

    At this point of time it’s very much needed and it is important that minority shareholders like ourselves can all unanimously agree that the cash offer of $1.22 is ridiculously low (never mind the down-trending offshore segment blah blah those are still not convincing enough reasons to explain the low-ball offer). Sometimes, a little patience goes a long way.

    I am hoping that everyone who is still holding on to the shares of STX OSV will continue to keep their faith in this company just as they have over the past few weeks/months.

    The fact remains that STX OSV is a fundamentally strong high-end OSV player, and that STX corporation desperately needed cash to ease its current financial constraints at the time of the selling of STX OSV at $1.22 to the Italian company who so happily bought it up.

    So I’m hoping that everyone who are vested in this company would spread the word across forums and the net (though I’m not suggesting for anyone who are not vested to buy into the company now- i’m merely appealing to those who have been vested since last year and do not intend to cut losses just yet because of the potential that they see in STX OSV).

    Point is, don’t go into panic selling mode now. Remember, those who look at the fundamentals of the company and are patient with the game will, more often than not, triumph.

    • Hi Anonymous, no problem!

      Yes, the low ball offer came from the fact that STX needed cash, but fundamentally STX OSV by itself is very strong. In fact, under a different parent, SOH may even do better as the parent does not need to keep drawing cash from it.

      I am seeing some forums with similar message, so yes do spread the word for current owners to stick to their guns.

Reject STX OSV Offer At $1.22
January 24th, 2013 by Calvin Yeo
As you all know, yesterday STX OSV requested for a trading halt after which they announced that the Fincantieri has completed the acquisition of 50.75% stake of STX OSV. As part of the takeover rules, it is required to extend its offer of $1.22 to exisiting shareholders as well.
I encourage all of you to reject the offer as it is simply to low in my opinion. All the research reports have predicted the offer will be rejected, so do remember to do your part as well. The price according to the announcement is
(i) a discount of approximately 12.9 per cent. to the last traded price of S$1.400 per Share as quoted on the SGX-ST on 20 December 2012, being the last trading day of the Shares on the SGX-ST preceding the Pre-Conditional Announcement Date  and
(ii) a  discount  of  approximately 17.5 per  cent.  to  the  three-month  volume-weighted average  price  (“VWAP”)  of  S$1.478 per  Share,  being  the  VWAP  for  the  threemonth period prior to, and inclusive of the last trading day of the Shares on the SGX-ST preceding the Pre-Conditional Announcement Date.
I seldom see general offers where the price is at a discount to last traded price and weighted average price.
At $1.22, STX OSV is only valued at 4.1x 2011 Earnings and 6.5x 2012 Estimated Earnings which is way too low.
Also, my valuation of STX OSV stand at about $1.75 while most research reports have it much higher than the offer price as well.
Macquarie Research – $1.82
Citi  – $1.70
CIMB – $1.47
I have entered additional lots as well as the maximum downside is $1.22 or about 3.9% from current price.

Investors confident because of what didn't happen



Money that had been pulled out of stocks is now pouring back in, says Banyan Partners' Robert Pavlik, because the worst fears about the fiscal cliff, debt ceiling and corporate earnings have not come to pass.
