Fraser & Neave (F99.SG) giving up most of today’s gains as investors content to take profit after run-up in intraday trade to almost 3-year high of $5.92 (+4.4%), while awaiting actual benefits arising from Kirin Holdings’ (2503.TO) entry as substantial shareholder, according to Dow Jones.
Shares last +0.9% at $5.72. Despite pullback, analysts generally upbeat over Kirin’s presence. “This deal does open F&N to the possibility of divesting or spinning off its property business, which will unlock value,” says CLSA, which has Outperform call with $6.50 target. Notes Kirin not interested in F&N’s property business, which accounts for 70% of Singapore company’s earnings; hence if property arm divested or spun off, resultant partnership in breweries business will be “highly synergistic”.
Shares unlikely to revisit intraday high for rest of session.

March 10th, 2010 |
No Comments
Fiat’s Sergio Marchionne is dropping lots of hints that there will be news of a possible Fiat Auto spin-off on April 21 when an investors’ meeting is scheduled in Turin. There will also be a presentation of a five-year strategic plan then. Five years continuing as now? I doubt that, even if the spin-off isn’t exactly imminent. Marchionne has been thinking about a spin-off for a while now and he’ll be wanting to set out a future for a consolidated automotive company merged with Chrysler and looking out for still higher scale economies in alliance with others (PSA speculation will obviously continue).
