London, UK, 2 February 2024
Edison issues update on Ocean Wilsons Holdings (OCN): Strategic options being considered Ocean Wilsons Holdings’ (OCN’s) strategic review remains ongoing. Despite the review and the potential for value realisation, OCN still trades at a c 51% discount to its value, which we believe is 2,564p. To value OCN we have taken the last published equity value (30 June 2023), excluding minorities, of US$565.2m, or £444.1m. We have then subtracted the equity value at the same date of OCN’s 57% stake in PORT3 of £206.2m, leaving an equity value of OCN (ex PORT3) of £237.9m. We have then added back the current market value of OCN’s 57% stake in PORT3 and arrived at a market value of OCN of £906.7m (or 2,564p/share), against a current market capitalisation of £443.8m (1,255p/share). This implies that OCN trades at a 51.1% discount to its market price value. Our forecasts have been updated to reflect the Q323 results. Click here to view the full report.
