Stocks to watch: UOB Kay Hian, Keppel DC Reit, FLCT
THE following companies saw new developments that may affect trading of their securities on Friday (Oct 18):
UOB Kay Hian: The Singapore Exchange Regulation has on Thursday lifted the brokerage’s moratorium, which restricted it from managing new initial public offerings (IPO) and reverse takeovers (RTO) submissions. This allows UOB Kay Hian to resume its role as issue manager and full sponsor for IPOs and RTOs on the local bourse. The counter ended at S$1.59, up S$0.01 or 0.6 per cent, before the announcement.
Keppel DC Real Estate Investment Trust (Keppel DC Reit): Its third-quarter distribution per unit rose 0.4 per cent to S$0.02501, from S$0.02492 in the year-ago period. This comes amid increased rent from strong reversions, a partial settlement distribution received in the first-half of the year, as well as contributions from its Tokyo data centre, said its manager in a business update on Friday. The counter closed 0.9 per cent or S$0.02 lower at S$2.22 on Thursday.
