(Malaysia solar EPC/renewables peers)
Read-through: On headline multiples, JS Solar lists at ~12.6×, materially below established EPC peers (often high-teens to 30s P/E). That valuation gap, alongside clear topline growth and deleveraging post-IPO, is typically supportive for listing-day demand.
JS Solar Holding Berhad — Offer price RM0.31, ACE Market, listing 23 Sep 2025.
Oxford Innotech Berhad — Appears on the same Bursa IPO roster (Jun–Sep window).
Implication: A busy ACE tape with tech/renewables names often keeps sentiment buoyant into debuts, provided pricing is not aggressive.
(directional read; exact prints vary by session)
Samaiden (0223.KL): trading on a ~30× TTM P/E, market cap ~RM560m; near-term tone constructive.
Solarvest (0215.KL): LTMs P/E in 30s; premium multiple persists, indicating healthy interest in solar EPC plays.
Sunview (0262.KL): TTM ~32× / forward ~19×; EV/EBITDA ~16.5× — valuations still supportive vs industrials average.
Debut signal: A firm peer tape with premium multiples tends to support positive Day-1 follow-through for a new entrant priced at a discount to the group.
Fair value estimate: RM0.45 vs IPO RM0.31 (implied +45%). Method: 15.3× P/E on mid-FY27F EPS 2.95 sen.
(No broader sell-side coverage identified yet; more may come closer to listing.)
Enlarged shares: 325m
Market cap at IPO: ~RM100.75m (at RM0.31)
PER: ~12.6×
Proceeds: bank repayment, office, expansion, working capital, listing expenses.
Debut read-through: Reasonable size and below-peer PER typically correlate with healthy opening prints when sector appetite is firm.
Verdict on subscription: Leaning Positive. Discounted P/E vs peers, improving leverage post-IPO, and a constructive sector tape are supportive.
Estimated Day-1 trade band: RM0.33 – RM0.40 (roughly +6% to +29% vs RM0.31), with bias to close mildly to solidly above offer, assuming stable market tone.
Upside drivers: peer premium multiples, growth optics, small-mid IPO float.
Watch-outs: delivery/execution risk, order-book visibility, general market volatility.
