There is a piece of information missing glaringly from the announcement in Bursa recently – the net property yield of the purchase. A back of the envelope calculation has yielded a maximum net property yield of around 8.3% for the 1st 3 yrs, and around 8.5% for the next 3 yrs. Since this purchase is totally debt funded, of course we will have to deduct the cost of the debt, which will be around 4.5 % – 6 %, depending on whether the loan will be on fixed rate or floating rate. Ignoring the 1% acquisition fee, 2.x% of 51 million will up the current DPU by around 0.xx%.

Quality of innovation
as described by Prof Desai
= extent of pain suffered by customers(the higher the pain the larger the value)
+number of potential customers
+life of the innovation
+difficulty in assembling a solution as well as difficulty in copying likely innovation opportunities
Misc
-when there is a pain, there is a need
-not every creative is an innovation
-pain point
-some innovation are only meant for specific market/industry
-FIGURE OUT how to APPLY TECHNOLOGY in ANOTHER AREA – technology for one purpose can be used/transported for another purpose
-how to go from functional(coffee shop, cafe) to emotional(Starbucks, Old Town White Coffee)
lifestyle economy – e.g. emotion(refer to above)
The THIRD PLACE – home, work, starbucks
