CSE GLOBAL (93 cents) -- its 100%-owned subsidiary in UK has announced intent to list in Dec 2013. CSE will distribute most of the IPO proceeds as special dividends.
Estimated special dividend around 25 cents a share.
DBS Vickers: CSE Global is likely to return most of the proceeds, which our analyst estimates to be 26-28 Scts DPS, from the divestment of its UK business.

We estimate that CSE will take three years to recover the earnings gap due to divestment of UK business. Our TP of S$1.07 ((Prev. S$0.97) implies potential returns of 28%. Maintain BUY. A successful IPO could lead to a re-rating of the stock.
