I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

REITs and rights issues: Dilutive or not? (2)

Read? REITs and rights issues: Dilutive or not?

Investor A's ROC will be dilutive relative to Investor B's ROC

No need to manipulate the numbers.

Just try to key in any reasonable number for earning, nil-paid rights, discount rate etc into the worksheet and the result will always be the same. ROC of Investor A will always be lower than the ROC of Investor B. Maths is not biased when the same set of numbers is applied to both investors.


Let continue with the Maths:

Assuming Investor A will always sell his entitled nil-paid rights and Investor B will always fully subcribe for his entitlement of nil-paid rights.

After three rounds of cash calls, relative difference in ROC between Investor A and Investor B is slowly becoming more obvious.



The rights exercise price is $0.90 i.e. 10% discount to the current price at $1 and current dividend yield at $1 is 10%.

How high can one resonably expect to sell nil-paid rights in the stock market?


$0.04?





$0.05?

  1. Hi CW,

    Of course, maths is not bias. However, the assumptions we put in will affect the results. The bias is planted by the person who sets the assumptions.

    This exercise you have now proposed (i.e. 3 rounds of cash call) is simply perpetuating and magnifying those initial assumptions.

    You did not answer Drizzt's question when he suggested that "the figures don't seem to be correct". Yes, why assume selling the rights at 2c? You might say that TERP is just the theoretical ex-rights price but you are also working on a hypothetical situation. So, Drizzt's question is valid.

  2. Hi CW,

    I see you have made some additions to the blog post. Haha.. OK, you got my drift at least from the perspective of pricing nil-paid rights. I think readers can expand on our discussion so far and draw better informed conclusions now. Thank you for the effort. :)
