In this briefing:
- Futu Holdings IPO Trading Update – Might Be Trading a Little Too High
- Last Week in GER Event-Driven Research: Myob, Rakuten, Delta, Graincorp and Hopewell Holding
1. Futu Holdings IPO Trading Update – Might Be Trading a Little Too High
Futu Holdings Ltd (FHL US)‘s IPO was priced at the top-end at US$12/ADS raising a total of US$160m, including the US$70m raised from General Atlantic via a concurrent private placement.
In my earlier insights, I looked at the company’s background, past financial performance, scored the deal on our IPO framework and compared it to Tiger Brokers:
- Futu Holdings Pre-IPO – Great Metrics but in a Commoditised Industry,
- Futu Holdings Pre-IPO – FY18 Updates And Quick Thoughts on Valuation,
- Futu Holdings IPO – Given the Team, Execution, and Backers, Might Be Worth a Look at the Low-End, and
- Futu Holdings IPO Quick Note – Comparison with Tiger Brokers – Same Market, Different Economics
In this insight, I will re-visit some of the deal dynamics, comment on share price drivers and provide a table with implied valuations.
2. Last Week in GER Event-Driven Research: Myob, Rakuten, Delta, Graincorp and Hopewell Holding
In this version of the GER weekly EVENTS research wrap, we contend that investors should cash out on the MYOB Group Ltd (MYO AU) deal and assess the NAV discount potential for Rakuten Inc (4755 JP) post the IPO launch of Lyft Inc (0812823D US) – of which Rakuten has a 13% stake. Moreover, we dig into the deals for Delta Electronics Thai (DELTA TB) , Graincorp Ltd A (GNC AU) and Hopewell Holdings (54 HK)

Best of luck for the new week – Rickin, Venkat and Arun
