Tokyo Metro (9023 JP), a mass transit operator, is seeking to raise up to US$2.3 billion. Pricing is on 15 October, and the listing is on 23 October.
We previously discussed the IPO in Tokyo Metro (9023 JP) IPO: The Bull Case and Tokyo Metro (9023 JP) IPO: The Bear Case.
In this note, we discuss valuation. Our analysis suggests that Tokyo Metro is attractively valued at the IPO price compared to peer multiples.

Aica Kogyo (4206) – Small Offering Chips Away At Cross-Holdings

By Travis Lundy

On Monday, 30 September, shareholders of US$1.4bn market cap chemicals and housing materials supplier Aica Kogyo (4206 JP) announced a Secondary Share Sale. It’s small at 2% of market cap.
The Offering is 2.1mm shares including greenshoe. The company also raised its H1 dividend guidance slightly (¥53/share to ¥56/share) and announced a buyback which should cover 57% of the offering.
It’s a small deal. There are a lot more cross-holdings behind that but the company is cash-rich and the company is very cheap/underlevered on an LBO basis.

Rigaku Holdings (268A JP) IPO: The Bull Case

Rigaku Holdings (268A JP) is Japan’s leading manufacturer of X-ray analysis, measurement and testing instruments. It is seeking to raise up to US$760 million.
In Japan, Rigaku’s XRD (X-ray diffraction) has a high market share of 75%. Around 70% of its revenue is derived from customers outside Japan.
The bull case rests on high customer switching costs, peer-leading revenue growth, top-quartile profitability, FCF generation, and low leverage.

K Bank IPO – Should Price Below Its Range

K Bank (279570 KS) plans to raise up to US$740m in its upcoming South Korean IPO.

Kumyang’s Capital Raise Drop: Breaking It Down from an Arb Trading Play
Upstream Bio Valuation Summary, DCF Analysis Suggests U.S. Business (Ex. COPD) Is Worth ~$1.8B
Weekly Deals Digest (29 Sep) – Tokyo Metro, CR Beverage, K Bank, Fuji Soft, Sun Art, Xingda, Capitol

Kumyang’s Capital Raise Drop: Breaking It Down from an Arb Trading Play

By Sanghyun Park

Kumyang’s major shareholders are backing the capital raise, committing ₩160B of the ₩450B total. We’re also likely to see some robust price support for the stock rights in early phases.
Institutional investors still make up about 10% of the SO, with around 8% being active players. These guys could easily start dumping stock rights in bulk.
Retail holds nearly 50% of the SO, increasing volatility and boosting chances for arb spreads. Kumyang’s stock futures have solid liquidity, making it a prime arb trading setup.

Upstream Bio Valuation Summary, DCF Analysis Suggests U.S. Business (Ex. COPD) Is Worth ~$1.8B

By Andrei Zakharov

Upstream Bio, a biotech company focused on developing therapeutics that address severe asthma, CRSwNP and COPD, will price its IPO in October.
Upstream Bio has raised ~$400M to date. Their last round was a $200M Series B led by private equity firm Enavate Sciences and Venrock Healthcare Capital Partners.
My DCF analysis suggests that Upstream Bio’s core U.S. business (ex. COPD) may be worth ~$1.8B. The severe asthma and CRSwNP markets represent a potential $10B+ opportunity.

In Tokyo Metro (9023 JP) IPO: The Bull Case, we highlighted the key elements of the bull case. In this note, we outline the bear case.

Pre-IPO Eternal Beauty Holdings – The Perfume Business in China May Not Be as Good as Expected

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

The essence of Eternal Beauty’s business model is to earn a “price difference” of the brand and product portfolios, but this business model is difficult to generate high profit margins.
The situation and prospects of China’s perfume market are facing major changes. It‘s uncertain whether the perfume sales in the China market can maintain double-digit growth in the long term.
Eternal Beauty’s financial performance would face challenges due to changes in consumer preferences, shifts in China’s domestic policies, international trade disputes, geopolitical conflicts, etc. Valuation could be lower than peers.

Daily Brief ECM: New Fast Entry Rule for KOSPI 200 & KOSDAQ 150: Post-IPO Price Swings Ramping Up and more

In today’s briefing:

New Fast Entry Rule for KOSPI 200 & KOSDAQ 150: Post-IPO Price Swings Ramping Up
Via Technologies GDR Offering – US$212m GDR Offering Will Be Easily Digested
K Bank IPO: Valuation Insights
Tokyo Metro IPO – The Positives – Quasi-Monopoly Status
Upstream Bio IPO Preview: Severe Asthma/CRSwNP Program Advancing

New Fast Entry Rule for KOSPI 200 & KOSDAQ 150: Post-IPO Price Swings Ramping Up

By Sanghyun Park

Besides ranking in the top 50 by market cap, it must also meet a minimum float-adjusted cap for K200 fast entry: at least 50% of the 50th-ranked stock’s market cap.
Even if new stocks meet KRX’s float cap, their actual float share volume may still be low, risking inflation from local pension funds’ preemptive passive inflows post-listing.
This could reduce predictability for KOSPI 200 fast entry, increasing price swings post-listing and forcing traders to develop new volatility strategies after IPOs.

Via Technologies GDR Offering – US$212m GDR Offering Will Be Easily Digested

Via Technologies (2388 TT) is looking to raise US$212m in its global depository receipts (GDRs) offering. Proceeds will be used to purchase overseas raw materials, and to replenish working capital.
Similar to previous GDR listings, the deal has had a long drawn out approval process. Thus, the deal is a very well flagged one.
The deal is a relatively small one to digest at 5.8 days of the stock’s three month ADV.

K Bank IPO: Valuation Insights

K Bank (279570 KS) is a Korean internet bank. It has launched an IPO to raise up to US$734 million.
We previously discussed the IPO in K Bank IPO: The Bear Case and K Bank IPO: The Bull Case.
We examine the syndicate’s valuation methodology. Our analysis suggests that K Bank is unattractively valued in the IPO price range. We would pass on the IPO.

Tokyo Metro IPO – The Positives – Quasi-Monopoly Status

Tokyo Metro (9023 JP)‘s shareholders aim to raise up to US$2.3bn in its upcoming Japan IPO.
Tokyo Metro (TKM) is one of the two metro network operators in the Tokyo region. It operates nine subway lines with a total of 180 stations.

Upstream Bio IPO Preview: Severe Asthma/CRSwNP Program Advancing

By Andrei Zakharov

Upstream Bio, a clinical-stage biotech company developing novel therapies for inflammatory and allergic diseases, filed for an IPO in the United States.
The biotech firm was backed by premier investors, including OrbiMed, Access Industries, Maruho Co., Samsara BioCapital, Omega Funds, and Enavate Sciences, among others.
I believe that company’s lead compound, verekitug (UPB-101), has a broader commercial opportunity than many investors appreciate.

Aequitas Research’s weekly update on the IPOs, placements, lockup expiry and other ECM linked events that were covered by the team over the past week.
On the IPO front, Midea Group Co Ltd A (000333 CH) and Bajaj Housing Finance (BHF IN) hogged much of the limelight this week as well.
On the placements front, there were a few large US$400m+ placements across the region this week.

Pre-IPO Zhejiang Taimei Medical Technology (PHIP Updates) – Some Points Worth the Attention

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

Declining customer retention rate indicates that a slowdown in future revenue growth seems inevitable. If revenue growth stagnates, it means Taimei’s business model hasn’t been fully validated by the market.
Taimei’s IPO on SSE STAR Market was rejected. This means regulatory authorities don’t recognize Taimei’s core technology/performance prospects. Taimei has to take a step back and list on the HKEX.
Post-Investment valuation reached RMB8.1 billion after Series F financing. However, considering the continuous decline in valuation of its peers, we are concerned about Taimei’s future stock price performance after IPO.
