HG Metals Board can Increase Shareholder Value by >40%

In Summary:
We believe that HG Metals substantial undervaluation costs shareholders >40% of equity value
HG has persistently traded at sharp discounts of 20% and 35% to SGX listed peers in the steel trading and
manufacturing businesses1
HGs intrinsic book value (comprising mostly liquid assets) at SGD 0.867/share is 150% higher than its current
share price of SGD 0.350 (~60% discount to NAV)
Investors 1.) lack confidence in the long term profit sustainability of HGs Trading Division, and 2.) clarity on the
allocation of the substantial net cash of SGD 29m and the stake in BRC Asia valued in excess of SGD 30m (vs. Mkt
Cap of SGD 45m)
We believe that the board can and should do more to increase shareholder value

We recommend the following actions for HG Metal:

Full strategic review on the potential divestment of major 22.6% stake in BRC Asia (non-core to HG).
Divestment can potentially yield > SGD 30m of proceeds (~67% of Mkt Cap). Multiple buyers have indicated interest in
the stake. Part of proceeds can be returned as dividends to shareholders
Immediately distribute SGD 10m as a special dividend (Dvd Yld of ~23%) to shareholders. HG will retain more
than sufficient net cash of SGD 19m to invest and execute on strategic projects
Scale down or spin off HGs Trading Division - reallocate capital to higher return business activities
Establish the Manufacturing Division as HGs core business and expedite on further investment to strengthen
the capabilities of this business
Provide clarity of the allocation of excess capital of ~SGD 50m (~110% of current Mkt Cap) forecasted net
cash balance following the implementation of Quarzs recommendations

Turnaround in profitability from 2H17 although division will continue to suffer from low returns on capital
despite the additional risk of distribution in Myanmar

Manufacturing Division
Lack of understanding on managements strategy for the division

Excess Net cash Holdings

Invest SGD 20m (SGD 10-15m from trading division) to further strengthen the capabilities of this division
Evaluate and grow in niche areas which are leveraged to improving construction productivity

Excess Cash Holdings
