Comps:
Perisai 6.875 2016 – 100/100.45, 6.86%/6.65%
Ezra 4.75 2016 – 100.90/101.35, 4.18%/3.91%

Wrote about them in Sep last year. Do take a read at  https://tradehaven.net/market/2-new-sgd-issues-perisai-petroleum-teknologi-bhd-s3y-lippo-malls-sgd150m-3-yrs/

I could not fathom, then, how they only managed to raise SGD 23 mio at that time. My analysis then was that it was  “mainly because it was not marketed in the street and many a clients missed hearing of its launch. And it is regrettable that most retail only got to see the overpriced Lippo Malls issue which I am hearing is awarded leverage to make its low yield more palatable.” https://tradehaven.net/market/bonds-in-conversation-life-is-good/

Thus it was an issue of timing and after 10 months, the Singapore market is ready to buy anything above 6%.

The 3 year swap rate is now 1.01% but the bond has only 2.25 years left to run.

In terms of credit, it is a better deal now because the bond is yielding 6.16% over the 2.25 year interest rate whereas when it was launched last year, the credit spread was just under 6%.

Given its affiliation with Ezra, I see opportunity for a switch out of Ezra (and or Swiber and or the rest of the names you may bucket in with this lot) into Perisai.

Good luck.
