Asia-Pac M&A Weekly Wrap: ANE (Cayman), Predictive Discovery, African Gold, Steadfast, Spindex
- I tally 37 – mostly firm, mostly Asia-Pac – arb transactions currently being discussed and analysed on Smartkarma. Those arbs metrics and upcoming events are detailed below.
- Three new deals were discussed on Smartkarma this week: Predictive Discovery (PDI AU), African Gold Ltd (A1G AU), and Low Keng Huat Singapore (LKH SP).
- Key updates/news also took place on: ANE Cayman Inc (9956 HK), Steadfast (SDF AU), and Spindex Industries (SPE SP).
TOP TOY IPO Valuation Analysis: Is TOP TOY The Next Breakout IPO in Hong Kong?
- TOP TOY is expected to IPO in 2026. The company has completed a ~$60M Series A round that was led by Temasek at a ~$1.3B post-money valuation in July.
- In my insight, I discuss IPO valuation, update relative valuation table and examine competitive landscape among domestic and international toymakers.
- TOP TOY revenue growth accelerated in 2025 coupled with improving profitability and growing free cash flows. TOP TOY was a major growth engine for MINISO’s business in 3Q.
