In 1999, Ong Asia achived a pre-tax profit of 25.90 mln sgd on turnover of 91.10 mln sgd. No comparative figures were given.

The IPO will be handled by Standard Chartered Merchant Bank Asia Ltd and Overseas Union Bank as joint lead managers, lead underwriters and lead placement agents.

Ong Asia launches IPO of 23 mln shares at 0.39 sgd each

Ong Asia Ltd has launched an initial public offering of 23 mln shares at 0.39 sg each, and a placement tranche of 83.7 mln shares also at 0.39 sgd, with another 6.4 mln shares reserved for employees at 0.351 sgd.

In a statement, the company said the total offering of 113.1 mln shares represents 25 pct of Ong Asia's enlarged share capital.

The company, which will raise 25 mln sgd from the IPO exercise, will use about 15 mln sgd from the proceeds to increase the share capital of its subsidiary, Ong & Co.

Of this amount, about 3.5 mln sgd will be used to invest in the company's internet trading system and the balance will be used as working capital.

About 3 mln sgd will be used to increase the share capital of Ong Asia Securities (HK) Ltd and Ong Asia Credit (HK) Ltd, to enable both companies to undertake a higher volume of business, and also as working capital.

Another 7 mln sgd will be used for the group's working capital and to finance business expansion.

The IPO will close on April 13.

The company said the issue price of 0.39 sgd represents a historical price-earnings ratio of 8.55 times for its 1999 financial year.

Ong Asia is the holding company of Ong and Co, a stock-broking company engaged in the trading of shares on the Singapore Exchange and other regional and international stocks exchanges.

BT reported that analysts were sanguine about the stock's prospects. Most expect the counter to rise by about 20%.

With a PE of 8.55. How much can one lose in this IPO?
I think the mkt industry of brokerage houses probably ard 8-12 as well recognising that the industry is not exactly new economy. But having said that it's pricing seem reasonably cheap although the upside cld be limited to 20-25% ie 0.47-49 cts.
They are on the internet as well although not as good as POEMS.But I heard from the director on CNA that some of the funds will be used to improve on the net broking so that's a good sign. 23 shares mio for the public isnt that big so prob can push up a bit on first day. Think worth a stag.

my advice is to stay away from this IPO.
with such a big float, and their business mainly from local retail investors, it can't be dat good.

buy from the open market if u like this counter.

should close below with the current market sentiments.

would recommend Airocean more, small float, low price, NO DEBT/LOAN company.

just my personal views.

Happy trading.

The prospect of a merger or acquisition is on the line for this counter as was mentioned by the Boss himself. This alone makes this counter a surething......just wait and see.

just my opinion thats all

Don't kid yourself that that there are only 23m that's gonna dump tomorrow. U forgot the 90m private placement in the hands of the company's clients. Don't be rash, this issue is guaranteed underwater tomorrow.

Stay out!

Placement tranche of 148000 not fully taken up. More than favourable placement ratio of 33:50 for the bigger lots buyers. All these mean that the IPO is going to sink underwater tomorrow...

How about PLS, anybody??? ...feel PLS offers better prospect than Ong Asia. ...Consider dumping Ong Asia as fast as possible and buy into PLS...

I agree with Yuenfs' comment on OngAsia.
You should switch into PLS (Parkway Laboratory Services) - Closing TODAY (17-April) and listing on Wednesday (19-April).
Last night's Channel News Asia program on "Corporate Watch" featured PLS with a likely first day price in the range 44-50 cents.

Singapore's Ong & Co Rolls Out New Mobile Trading Svc
(Dow Jones)--Ong & Co., a Singapore brokerage firm, Thursday rolled out a new service in conjunction with Singapore Telecom Mobile that allows investors to trade stocks and check their accounts using the latest mobile telephone technology.
The service, dubbed iROAM (Interactive Remote Online Access Module), is the Asia-Pacific region's first mobile electronic-trading system to use the wireless application protocol, or WAP, company officials said.

Ong & Co. Chairman and Chief Executive Ong Tjin An said the new service will complement his firm's on-line trading business, which was launched in January 1999. SingTel Mobile will have an exclusive agreement with Ong & Co. during a four-month marketing and promotion period, said Lucas Chow, SingTel Mobile's chief executive.

"We're working together to lower barriers to entry," he said. After the initial period, the market will be opened up to other competitors, Chow said.

The new service will be offered to Ong & Co. customers at no charge, apart from the cost of the mobile telephone and making a call.
The access to the service may be limited at first, however, because of a shortage of WAP-enabled mobile phones. WAP is becoming the defacto standard around the world for accessing the Internet through wireless devices, Ong said. The Edge Consultants provided Ong & Co. with technical assistance in setting up the new system.

Greeny, I actually had the chance to try out the WAP service that you mentioned in your posting. (Had a fren who was developing the system for them)My conclusion. No one in his right mind would trade that way. The server was slow. The phone was cumbersome to use. The navigation is so unfriendly that I really had a hard time doing what I am suppose to do to carry out my transactions. And I considered myself pretty 'techie' and I just wanna smash the Nokia 7710 to bits because it was just so frustrating to use. I may be too harsh given the 'newness' and the 'rawness' of the technology but anyone coming in touch with Ong and Co for the first time will go away with a bad impression. Have tiny vested interest.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll just stick to computer-based online trading with OngCo. I have an online trading a/c with them already, and I don't use a handphone anyway.

IN SGX DO NOT INVOLVE WITH (1)LAFE (2) BAN JOO (3) IONICS (4) ONG ASIA . These are slow moving and worthless company see their IPO price and how much they fall down !! Is there any regulation in SGX to guide investor and to control such money wiped out ( of retail investor)by recent IPOs ????

Lost more than 6k on these counters, hope to wait till my son ( 3 yrs )'s son to get IPO value back in next 25 to 30 yrs on these counters !!!

GOLDEN RULE : NEVER BUY FOREIGN COMPANY / BIG IPO IN SGX.

Bigbull,
Kindly refrain from doing this kind of posting (not the content, but putting the msg in all the companies' thread). Doesn't reflect too well on anyone...

While I understand your reasons for such posting, and my heart does go out to you for not making the kind of money that you have expected, perhaps you should understand that this is part of the risks involve.

It is also unfair to put so much responsibilities on SGX. Are you going to reward them if you have made some money from the IPO? While no one or no organisation is perfect, I think the SGX has done a commendable job thus far...

Maybe a better option for you is to directly let the authorities know what you think, what they should do etc...Perhaps this will be more productive...

You never know, but the 6K you have lost may juz be a small part of the millions that you're gonna make...

Have a wonderful time ahead.
--cheers!!--

At 29 cents, Ong Asia is now trading at approx. 6.4x historical earnings. Does this compare well with the other listed stockbrokers, i.e. G.K. Goh, Kay Hian, Kim Eng & Vickers Ballas?

Where is your source for the directors' purchases? Maybe the directors just queued up to bid for the shares and they never booked the sellers. You have to book the seller to push up the price. If you wait for the seller to throw to you then you are just supporting the price at your price level.

I think OngAsia will languish down for a while ...like GK Goh and Vickers.

Problem is IPO tranche too large ...

This is only counter among all recent IPOS that do not move upward even market goes up ! There is no action from managment on increasing share holder's value ! Even lafe goes some time up but this one never move north ! stuck with IPO price ! Should hold or stop loss ?
