Did any of you read the newspaper ad that state:"The issuer may, at its sole discretion, elect not to pay a distribution, scheduled to be paid on a Distribution Payment Datem..."?
Anyone can advise on above?

This is a standard clause in all Perps.

if they do not pay the coupons..then they wont be able to issue dividends to ordinary shareholders too

also its cumulative..so its better than those NCPS like occ5.1 on market

so unless there is insolvency issues which might result in bankruptcy, otherwise should be quite ok for those who intend to hold long term

they will just cont to tap capital markets for working capital

Looks like this is actually refinancing their debt cos the offer is actually to pay off existing debt of $275mil.
I'm a noob at IPO; hope someone can advise what is the ticker for this share issuance?

I hope you have considered your financial needs (your age, dependants, cash on hand needed weekly/monthly) before even deciding to press for this...

Have to take into acct their perpetual securities which hides as equities. Their real equity should be ard S$700mil++

Means financial leverage(total asset divided by equity) from highest to lowest is Hyflux, Oxley, Aspial, Perennial. Correct me if im wrong.

It's a tough decision because someone mentioned that we might not get full allocation. If only allotted 20% of our application, then pressing for $200k is ok. Tricky part is if 100% allotted would be a bit too much but would get about $1k per month as passive income.

Woah, Hyflux real equity is not even $1m? Their debt/equity ratio must be really high.

I guess Hyflux is raising funds using perpetual securities to keep their debt levels low since it's hidden as equity.
