Oh sorry, my english is not very good ! Last time in Singapore TV, always after midnight, there selling all sports equipment or fruit juice extractor in the TV media program. Then it went missing in TV media business. Now all selling of those goods can now be found in ebay and yahoo and alibaba in China. What do you think about this kind of business of selling jewellery in TV program ? Any prospect especially their plan to expand in China ? |

That's why I think that IPOs are not exactly a sure bet.... I prefer stocks that have charts for me to analyse and IPOs have none. |

hmm recent all IPO's after a few days opening, either float around the IPO px or go below water. Guess this not a very good sign for any new IPO coming along. |

Hi teeth, yes I agree with you that IPO is time for t hose old fox to off-load their share and earn money from the public. To them each share might worth less then 0.50 or less in this case. Imagine they are selling it at 1.08 to the public. But with the current strong bull mkt, making some kopi money shouldn't be any problem... but long term vise... perhaps some other expert can give their opinion. =) |

ALL new ipos are above its price when they are listed as this is a BULL market. After that it can be another game plan. So those who get under placement or at atm will be laughing to the bank! Those who do not get any just cry lor! (ha ha ha) |

Today Sunday, big boys on holiday, can't comment yet yahh..., but to me personnally. Mr choo spend so much $$$ just to get some lunch tips from U.S. investor Warren Buffett, bidding $202,100 for this privilege. LO_ok like $$$ is too much been throw around to show off. (To Warren Buffett that kind of $$$ will buy him to give away tips. I personally don think so, so good secret machine to make $$$ will not shoot out of it own mouth). As for Choo's stake will be reduced to 20.5% from 25.7% following the IPO. The Hour Glass I personnally tink tink Ouhua "hokkien call it Ooohua" or i call it in short "Ou" (black oil) is in better shape, still those tink Gems TV is a Gem, wish U the best yaahh...grey mkt should be above water, That my personnal guessing oni hohh...... |

The IPO is being handled by Credit Suisse as sole global coordinator and bookrunner. DBS Bank and CIMB-GK are the sub-placement agents of the IPO. My observation on new ipos handled directly or sub- by cimb-gk is such that more of distribution all the way till zero. winess wilmar, pan hong and most recent china kangda..... |

Gems TV Holdings Ltd. would raise $309 million after it priced its shares at $1.08 each, the upper end of its $0.95-$1.10 price range. A person close to the Gems TV deal said the offering had met with strong demand from institutional investors. "The institutional placement was over 12x covered, which is a marked contrast to recent deals," the source said. The offering is equivalent to about 28% of the company's enlarged share capital of 1.03 billion shares. Chief Executive Officer Jason Choo attracted attention in Singapore in 2004 when he won an eBay auction to have lunch with U.S. investor Warren Buffett, bidding $202,100 for the privilege. Choo's stake in the company will be reduced to 20.5% from 25.7% following the IPO. The Hour Glass Gems TV has signed an agreement with satellite TV operator DirecTV |

Gems TV Holdings Ltd, a gemstone jewelry maker and TV retailer in the UK, has launched its IPO of 285.77 mln new and vendor shares at $1.08 each. The IPO comprises 79.71 mln vendor shares and 206.06 mln new shares, the company said in its IPO prospectus. Of the IPO shares, 14.29 mln shares will be sold to retail investors and 271.48 mln to institutional investors. Of the retail tranche, 2 mln shares will be reserved for the company's employees. The IPO is being handled by Credit Suisse as sole global coordinator and bookrunner. DBS Bank and CIMB-GK are the sub-placement agents of the IPO. The offer closes on Nov 8 and trading of the shares is expected to start Nov 10. Net proceeds from the sale of new shares, estimated at $212 mln, will be used by the company to fund its US, Japan and China expansion plans and boost production capacity in Thailand. It also plans to upgrade its facilities in the UK and buy a stake in a German company out of the proceeds. Gems TV swung from a net loss of US$163,000 in the year to June 2004 to a net profit of $5.32 mln the following year and to $28.8 mln usd in the year to June 2006. |
