The Keppel O&amp;M / SMM Combination and Keppel Rig Asset Restructure were announced today and the arithmetic is both tough and interesting. There's a little magic here.
KEP shareholders receive SMM shares worth ~1/3 of today's share price, and the rest is currently valued at well under Net Tangible Assets post-Restructuring/Transaction.
That suggests Keppel has upside, but one must think carefully about the exposures.

DiDi Global (DIDI US) had serious data problems. It still listed itself, against the wishes of the regulators. Then it got in serious hot water. And it's been getting hotter. 

Ramsay Health Care (RHC AU) announced an unsolicited, non-binding Offer from KKR (and HISTA), at A$88.00/share, a 36.7% premium to last close, however, earnings have been left bedridden by the pandemic.
Post-Deal, Keppel Corp (KEP SP) will look more like Sembcorp Industries (SCI SP). More engineering, less power generation infra assets, more other infra assets and more data centres.
