DBS Shares Plummet on OUB Offer, Hurting Rival Singapore Bank Shares
By Hasan Jafri Dow Jones Newswires
June 26, 2001 12:01 am ET

TEXT
SINGAPORE -- Shares in DBS Group Holdings Ltd. plunged to a two-year low Monday as investors reacted negatively to the hostile bid by Singapore's largest bank for Overseas Union Bank Ltd. Other bank stocks involved in Singapore's banking-sector shake-up also closed lower on the day, but didn't decline as much as DBS.

DBS's surprise 9.4 billion Singapore dollar (US$5.16 billion) cash-and-share bid on Friday for Singapore's fourth-largest bank follows Oversea-Chinese Banking Corp.'s unsolicited all-cash offer two weeks ago to buy Keppel Capital Holdings Ltd. , the country's smallest listed bank, for S$4.8 billion. Investors and analysts are concerned about DBS's stated plans to issue new shares to help pay for the purchase.

If successful, the bids will push Singapore closer to the government's preferred policy for a banking system dominated by two major banks, with a third bank serving as a niche player.


But the outcome of the latest maneuvers is far from certain, as many investors wonder whether the family of Lien Ying Chow, OUB's founder, is willing to sell the bank to DBS. There is also a big question mark over what United Overseas Bank Ltd. , or UOB, the second-largest lender by assets, will do in response.

DBS shares fell 7.3% to S$12.70, closing off an intraday low of S$12.30, while OUB shares slipped 0.6% to end at S$9, below the S$9.50 at which the DBS offer was valued. OCBC shares fell 0.8% to S$12.40, while Keppel Capital shares shed 0.6% to close at S$3.58, which means they are still trading above OCBC's cash bid of S$3.38.

UOB, which has expressed an interest in Keppel Capital but hasn't made any acquisition bid, saw its share price drop 4.8% to S$11.90. That decline could reflect concerns that UOB would be a much weaker player in Singapore's banking market if the other two acquisitions take place, or it could indicate that investors expect UOB to issue shares in order to help finance a rival bid, analysts said.

The sharp fall in DBS stock mirrored the shares' performance when it unveiled a S$10 billion bid in April for Dao Heng Bank Group Ltd. In that instance, investors were concerned that DBS, valuing Dao Heng at three times book value, was overpaying for the Hong Kong bank.

Regarding the current bid for OUB, "people don't like" the offer, said Stephen Frost, the regional banking analyst at HSBC Securities in Singapore. DBS is offering S$1.14 cash and 0.61 DBS share for a total of S$9.50 per OUB share, or about 1.83 times OUB's book value.

Two concerns appear to be paramount. First, although the deal with OUB would give DBS a commanding position in the region, DBS will be issuing 600 million new shares to finance the acquisition, diluting earnings. Mr. Frost said he expects the proposed deal to dilute 2002 earnings by up to 5%, while ING Barings estimated earnings will be diluted by as much as 13%.

However, some analysts argue that OUB could in fact enhance DBS earnings if the bank can capitalize on the synergies such a deal offers. Brokerage firm GK Goh, in a research report on the DBS bid for OUB, said the deal would add 5% to cash earnings-per-share, and raised its recommendation on DBS shares from "hold" to "buy."

The other concern investors have is whether DBS has the management depth to integrate both OUB and Dao Heng simultaneously. DBS said it has established a team of top-level executives to integrate OUB with the DBS network. Still, some market watchers remain cautious.

For instance, international ratings agency Moody's Investors Service Inc. expressed its concerns, saying: "In managing two rather large-scale acquisitions, one domestic and one cross-border, at the same time, Moody's believes DBS will face higher integration risks, despite its past hands-on experience in acquiring and integrating both a Singapore and Hong Kong bank."

While Moody's affirmed the debt, deposit and preference-share ratings of DBS Bank Ltd., the ratings agency placed its B financial strength rating on review for possible downgrade. Meanwhile, Standard & Poor's Ratings Group had on Friday affirmed its long-term counterparty credit and debt ratings for DBS.

Many market participants argue the two bids aren't the end of the game as Singapore moves closer to the two super-banks model: "I don't think this is going to be the last [bid]," said David Lum, an analyst at Daiwa Institute of Research in Singapore.

Mr. Lum said both OCBC and UOB should counter DBS's bid as they would be "extremely" disadvantaged by a significantly larger DBS, which stands to become Asia's third-largest bank by assets if successful in buying OUB.
