SGX welcomes LHN Group as first IPO of 2015

The company’s net earnings have almost doubled over the last two years.

The real estate players of SGX are gaining a new friend.

According to a report by the bourse, homegrown company LHN Group will be SGX’s first initial public offer of 2015.

Most of the LHN Group’s revenue comes from its space design business, which involves the design, refurbishment, leasing and management of properties.

The company also offers facilities management, which includes building maintenance, security services, cleaning, landscaping, pest control services and car park management service. It also has a logistics services business.

LHN is a real estate management services group with ability to generate value for landlords and
tenants through its expertise in space optimisation. It has a profitable track record: net earnings have
grown steadily from S$7 million in FY2012 to S$12.7 million in FY2014, a compound annual growth rate of 34.7 per cent. LHN's Catalist listing is done entirely through a private placement exercise with no public tranche. It plans to issue 73.9 million new shares at S$0.23 each to raise gross proceeds of S$17 million for business expansion.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
