Heineken says it has completed purchase of 8.6% of APB
THE HAGUE: Heineken said on Tuesday it had completed its purchase of 8.6 per cent of top Asian brewer Asia Pacific Breweries (APB), bringing the Dutch beer giant a step closer to taking control of APB and gaining an edge in Asia. Heineken said in a statement that on Monday it had " completed the purchase of 22,207,130 shares in Asia Pacific Breweries Limited held by Kindest Place Groups Limited," in a deal worth around 741 million euros (US$959 million). Heineken announced its intention to purchase the shares on 19 September. Kindest Place Groups is controlled by the son-in-law of tycoon Charoen Sirivadhanabhakdi, who controls Thai Beverage (ThaiBev) and TCC Assets that last week agreed to support Heineken's bid to gain control of Asia Pacific Breweries. Heineken in turn promised not to make a counter-offer for APB's parent company Fraser and Neave (F& N), which the Thais want to take over. Heineken already owns 42 per cent of Singapore-based APB and offered S$5.6 billion (US$4.6 billion) for the 40 per cent stake held by F& N. This has to be ratified at an extraordinary general meeting of F& N shareholders on 28 September. APB, the crown jewel of F& N, makes Tiger Beer and other popular brands in Asia, where beer consumption is rapidly growing as sales taper off in mature markets like Europe, Heineken's traditional base. APB, which has breweries in 14 countries including China, reported in August that its revenues for the third quarter to June rose almost 10 per cent to S$781.33 million from a year ago. A Heineken takeover of APB would give it an edge over other rivals in Southeast Asia as well as China. |

Thai Beverage/F& N/APB
Thai Beverage/F& N/APB: Charoen is said to be Thailand’s second richest man with a total net worh of US$5.5b Since listing in 2006, ThaiBev has aggressively expanded, notably acquiring Bangkok listed Serm Suk PLC last Sept for THB6.4b, and has also restructured its sales networks for Chang Beer and spent heavily on promotions. Proposed investment of F& N and APB immediately diversifies grp’s company geographically and is highly complementary to its existing single market focus. Note however that for Thai Bev, unless an equity raising exercise is on the cards, it might need some time to digest the purchase of F& N Stake.
CIMB note that at $50 share price for APB, implies c.33x annualized FY12E P/E (fairly rich) and believe Thai Bev's $8.88 offer price for FNN has imputed a similar premium for its F& B business but a discount for its property segment (60% of FNN's SOTP). Assuming that $8.88 implies a 15-20% discount to the FNN Group, estimate that Thai Bev is willing to pay $60-65/share for APB.
As a new substantial shareholder of FNN, the group stands to lose out in lower valuations for FNN shares after the Heineken deal. Add that the FNN Group without APB should not command the same valuations as before. Overall, house believe there is a high chance that the bid will not succeed since FNN itself should be unwilling to give up its F& B exposure while major shareholder (Kirin) is likely to veto any sale to Heineken. If the offer does go through, FNN will receive S$5bn in cash to make an estimated $4b divestment gain. This could result in a large special dividend.
