YAMADA GREEN RESOURCES: Buying by GYP and independent director Written by Leong Chan Teik Monday, 30 June 2014 06:33 On 26 May, Global Yellow Pages bought 672,000 shares from the open market at 17.35 cents apiece on average. This brought its total holding to 100.451 million shares, or a 20% stake in the Chinese producer of fresh shiitake mushrooms and manufacturer of processed foods. On the face of it, its previously stated intent has finally crystallised >>> Re: GLOBAL YELLOW PAGES signals possibility of buying more of Yamada Green Resources The share purchase may also have been motivated by the accounting objective of restoring Global Yellow Pages' stake to 20% as it was diluted after an executive director (Chen Qisheng) exercised his performance share options. With a 20% stake, Global Yellow Pages -- a household name in Singapore as a publisher of consumer and business directories -- can equity account the results of Yamada. The 20% stake is a sharp jump from the 3.14% that it held about 11 months ago, in July 2013. Yamdachart6.14Yamada Green Resources traded recently at 17 cents, translating into a market cap of S$85.4 million. Chart: Bloomberg.Global Yellow Pages had upped its stake substantially through a purchase of part of the shareholding of Hydrex International - owned by tycoon Sam Goi and angel investor Koh Boon Hwee-- and through a share swap with Yamada. Aside from Global Yellow Pages, another buyer of Yamada shares of late was an independent director, Chang Feng-chang, who is also CEO of Kinsley Capital International. Last week, on 25 June, he bought 200,000 shares at an average price of 17 cents, raising his holding to 600,000 shares. The trailing PE is 4.97X while the dividend yield, 1.56%. Aside from the apparently low valuation of the stock, perhaps the insiders are confident of the long-term prospects of Yamada as well as a good set of results in the remaining quarter of the financial year ending today (30 June). In 9MFY2014 (ended March 2014), Yamada recorded RMB85.3 million in net profit, up 23.6% year-on-year, thanks in part to the non-recurrence of the foul weather that affected the yield of its mushroom farms in FY2013. Bolstering its bamboo business segment, Yamada recently announced the proposed acquisition of a moso bamboo plantation. It also proposed to purchase a 19% stake in Zhangzhou Meisei Foods Co. which manufactures a wide variety of agricultural processed food products, including different types of processed bamboo shoots, pickled vegetables and other processed vegetables. Meisei is recognized as one of the leading processed bamboo shoots suppliers in Fujian Province. www.nextinsight.net/index.php/story-archive-mainmenu-60/924-2014/8680-yamada-green-resources-buying-by-gyp-and-independent-director

Retail Food pays $163.5m for Gloria Jeans MICHAEL RODDAN OCTOBER 24, 2014 2:30PM
Retail Food Group has announced its intention to acquire Gloria Jeans Coffees, revising upwards its full-year guidance for fiscal 2015 to an expected 36 per cent rise in net profit after tax compared to the prior financial year.
Retail Food Group, which owns brands including Donut King, Brumby's Bakeries, Michel's Patisserie and Crust Pizza, says it has entered a sale and purchase agreement with the coffee franchise, which has 800 outlets across 40 countries.
The company has said the transaction is for a consideration of $163.5 million, along with a $16.4m top-up in milestone or earn-out payments.
Australia’s largest multi-brand retail food franchiser said it will gain the global intellectual property rights to Gloria Jean’s Coffees and It’s A Grind coffee brand, with the takeover adding around $24m to underlying earnings before interest and tax to its fiscal 2016 bottom line.
The transaction will result in around a 26 per cent increase in earnings per share growth over fiscal 2014.
“Given close alignment between Gloria Jean’s Coffees’ activities and those of RFG, the business represents a target that has long been of interest to RFG," said chief executive Tony Alford.
Gloria Jean’s executive chairman, Nabi Saleh, has committed to remain with the business for a minimum period of two years post-completion, ensuring key commercial and stakeholder relationships are seamlessly transitioned.
The takeover deal will be paid in cash of $153.5m and shares of $10m, funded by 60 per cent debt and 40% equity.
RFG will raise $55 million to help fund its purchase through the issue of new shares to institutional and sophisticated shareholders.
The company has also increased its senior debt facility with National Australia Bank, from $135 million to $253 million.
Its purchase of Gloria Jeans is expected to be settled by December.

Global Yellow Pages inks first property deal
The Business Times - October 9, 2014 By: Andrea Soh Share on facebook Share on twitter Share on email Share on favorites Share on print | More Sharing ServicesMore Global Yellow Pages inks first property deal
Singapore
GLOBAL Yellow Pages, in its first-ever deal in the real estate sector, is planning to buy a shopping mall and its accompanying land in New Zealand.
This, however, will be done in a roundabout way, through an intermediate firm controlled by Global Yellow Pages' CEO Stanley Tan and director Pang Yoke Min.
The original owners of the freehold shopping mall - Ladstone Pakuranga Limited and Ladstone Pakuranga Management Limited - had first sold the property to Pakuranga Plaza Limited (PPL) on Sept 9 for NZ$96 million (S$95.8 million).
The mall, which is located in the centre of Pakuranga in Auckland, occupies 39,209 square metres, and has retail and office space with a gross lettable area of 29,541 square metres that is occupied by about 100 tenants, including major department stores and supermarkets.
Under the terms of the deal, PPL had to pay 5 per cent of this amount as a deposit by Oct 8, and another 5 per cent when it obtained approval under the Overseas Investment Act of New Zealand. The remainder was to be paid on the settlement date stipulated in the agreement.
Global Yellow Pages had wanted to buy PPL shares directly from its previous shareholder, but this acquisition would have been conditional on the approval of its shareholders in a general meeting. Ladstone Pakuranga Limited and Ladstone Pakuranga Management Limited had not wanted any condition allowing PPL to defer completion of the acquisition until the firm had obtained all regulatory approvals.
Therefore, another intermediate firm Pakuranga Plaza Holdings - set up in New Zealand for this acquisition and controlled equally by Mr Tan and Mr Pang - on Tuesday bought over all the PPL shares.
Global Yellow Pages will be taking over all of PPL shares for NZ$38.4 million, which it intends to finance through a rights issue completed in June and internal funds; PPL intends to borrow S$57.7 million to finance its own purchase of the property.
The NZ$38.4 million that Global Yellow Pages will pay to Pakuranga Plaza Holdings will comprise: a deposit of NZ$9.6 million when PPL's deal with the mall's original owners is declared unconditional; a deposit of NZ$28.8 million a day before the settlement date of that deal, and NZ$1 when Global Yellow Pages has obtained consent from its shareholders in an extraordinary general meeting and regulators.
If approval from shareholders or regulators is not granted, Pakuranga Plaza Holdings, with Mr Tan and Mr Pang as the guarantors, will together repay the first two deposits to Global Yellow Pages within 40 days.
Global Yellow Pages said that this acquisition will enable the group to diversify into real estate, in which it sees potential for long-term growth and in which both its chairman Mah Bow Tan and Mr Tan have significant experience.
According to a valuation report by property consultancy JLL dated Feb 6 this year, with the purchase price of S$96.2 million and an occupancy rate of about 97 per cent, the net rental yield of the property is about 8.1 per cent. "The acquisition is therefore income accretive in nature, and will generate profits that may be used to fund the working capital of the group," Global Yellow Pages said in the announcement.
The firm, which has also identified food and beverage as another sector to diversify into, had also last month completed the purchase of the intellectual property rights held by Wendy's Supa Sundaes and Innovation Ice Cream for A$10 million (S$11.7 million).
The counter, which has fallen 46.4 per cent so far this year, dipped 0.1 Singapore cent to close at 4.3 Singapore cents on Wednesday.

Takeaway giant buys Gloria Jean's Coffees from Hillsong board member A Gloria Jean's Coffees franchise in Sydney.

(AAP) Mr Saleh, who is also a board member of the Hillsong Pentecostal church, is staying with the business for at least another two years, along with his senior management team.

odie, Wait for the share price to sit above the 20d SMA coupled with a W-shaped pattern + confirmation (or an inverted H&S, neckline @ S$0.05), b4 placing your bets. The trading volume showed that there were gatekeepers inside GYP but after the support @ 0.044 was broken, no more liao... Quite similar to NOL's chart pattern.
