Fraser & Neave has enough money to buy more assets

It has net cash available worth $700m.

Fraser & Neave (F&N) is expected to deliver on acquisitions to supplement growth sources, and to add on to its current geographical and product or brand repertoire, said DBS Vickers Securites.

The research house said that balance sheet remains in net cash, to the tune of over S$700m available for deployment.

"In our view, acquisitions are likely to be of a large size. Should it happen, we believe funding could entail utilisation of its internal cash, debt and possibly equity fund raising," it said.

The research house expects management to likely pursue opportunities in the IndoChina region.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
