Conclusion

Investors who have invested into this IPO can consider ‘Exiting’ from their position at the closing price of AU$2.05 as on December 1, 2021, given:

  • Decent gains: The stock has moved up ~21% from its IPO price of AU$1.70/share and has given a decent return in a shorter time duration.
  • Resurgence of COVID-19 cases: Increasing COVID-19 cases in Europe and other parts of the world is throwing a lot of uncertainties in the global financial markets. Also, real estate business could witness labour shortage, slowdown in project rollout and supply chain related problem in the near-term.
  • Inflationary pressure: The sharp rise in the basic material prices (steel, copper, aluminum, lumber) could suppress margin profile of the company in the upcoming quarters.
