    Elray Gaming (ELRA) Eyes Acquisition of Macau Gaming Company

    ELRA – major Macau merger

    Elray Gaming Eyes Acquisition of Macau Gaming Company
    Last Updated: May 03, 2012 – 7:45am EST

    (NEW YORK) –(NEW YORK) –Elray Gaming, Inc, which is traded under the name Elray Resources, Inc (OTC:ELRA), continues to move ahead with its potential acquisition of Macau gaming company, Golden Match, which could give the stock a minimum price valuation of $0.10 per share.

    Elray Gaming announced a ‘binding letter of intent’ to acquire Golden Match, who’s principal business activity is to hold a profit share agreement with a VIP Room Gaming Promoter, the terms of which they receive 80% of the profit stream from the Promoters, which currently participates in the promotion of many major luxury VIP gaming facilities in Macau, China, the largest gaming market in the world.

    The company has negotiated a profit sharing agreement with Cali Promocao de Jogos Sociedade Unipessoal Lda. (CALI), a company duly incorporated under the laws of the Special Administrative Region of Macau, and promotes Casinos in Macau SAR pursuant to a license issued by the Gaming Inspection and Coordination of Bureau of the Government of Macau SAR.

    Over the past 5 months, CALI generated approximately $17 million (US) profit after tax.

    ELRA Post-Merger Valuation

    Taking that $17 million profit into consideration, a rough fiscal year net profit for CALI would be in the range around $37 million, after taxes. If given a 80% profit sharing bases, that would give Golden Match, and thus ELRA, a yearly net profit of around $29.6 million,

    ELRA currently has around 700 million shares issued and outstanding, but for the sake of closing the merger, and estimating for dilution to close the deal, even at 3 billion shares issued and outstanding, that would still give ELRA an EPS estimate of around $0.01 EPS.

    Based on the value estimates of other publicly traded Macau gaming companies, a conservative PE of 10 to 15 would still give ELRA a post merger estimate of $0.10 to $0.15 per share, or a conservative $300 million post-merger market capitalization, which would reflect a sharp % return from its current $0.004 share price.

    From all indications, movement on this merger continues to move forward with talks showing possible institutional interest, which could help turn this letter of intent into a full blown major merger.

    Cali currently has agreements in place are with MGM Grand Macao, a division of MGM Resorts International (NYSE:MGM), the Venetian, Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN), Galaxy Entertainment Group Limited (HKG: 0027), and City of Dreams.

    B&N, Microsoft team up on Nook, college businesses

    Posted on

    BKSBooks and bits united Monday as Microsoft provided an infusion of money to help Barnes & Noble compete with top electronic bookseller Amazon. In exchange, Microsoft gets a long-desired foothold in the business of e-books and college textbooks.

    Microsoft Corp.’s $300 million investment sent Barnes & Noble Inc.’s stock zooming up $9.15, or 67 percent, to $22.83 in early afternoon trading. The opening price of $26 was a three-year high. Microsoft’s stock rose 2 cents to $32.

    The two companies are teaming up to create a subsidiary forBarnes & Noble’s e-book and college textbook businesses, with Microsoft taking a 17.6 percent stake.

    The deal gives Barnes & Noble ammunition to fend off shareholders who have agitated for a sale of the Nook e-book business or the whole company, but the companies said Monday that they are exploring separating the subsidiary, provisionally dubbed “Newco,” entirely from Barnes & Noble. That could mean a stock offering, sale or other deal.

    The deal also puts to rest concerns that Barnes & Noble doesn’t have the capital to compete in the e-book business with market leader Amazon.com Inc. and its Kindle, said analyst David Strasser at Janney Capital.

    For Microsoft, the investment means that it will own part of a company that sells tablet computers based on Google Inc.’s Android, one of the main competitors of Windows Phone 7, Microsoft’s smartphone software.

    Microsoft also said the deal means that there will be a Nook application for Windows 8 tablets, set to be released this fall. The app is likely to get a favored position on Windows 8 screens.

    There’s already a Nook application for Windows PCs, but none for Windows phones.

    William Lynch, the CEO of Barnes & Noble, said Nook software will continue to be available on devices like the iPhone that compete with Windows Phone.

    He declined to say whether it was Barnes & Noble or Microsoft that initiated the discussions, but he said the talks had been going on since before the beginning of the year.

    “We have been circling the relationship for quite a long time,” added Microsoft president Andy Lees. “When you think of different types of reading and what’s going to happen when that goes digital, it’s really quite dramatic to be bringing that to Windows customers.” Read the rest of this entry »

    Why Jazz Pharmaceuticals Popped

    Posted on April 27, 2012

    JAZZAlthough we don’t believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes — just in case they’re material to our investing thesis.

    What: Shares of biopharmaceutical company Jazz Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: JAZZ ) shot up as much as 21% earlier in the trading session after it agreed to purchase EUSA Pharma.

    So what: It’s rare when a purchasing company heads higher on a buyout announcement, but this deal signals yet another win for Jazz, one of my “Mid Caps to Rule Them All.” The company agreed to purchase EUSA for up to $700 million — paying $650 million upfront (financed mostly through debt), and agreeing to pay an additional $50 million if EUSA’s lead cancer drug, Erwinaze, which was approved by the FDA in November, reaches U.S. sales targets in 2013. According to Jazz, the transaction will add $210 million-$230 million in revenue and, more importantly, $0.75-$0.85 in EPS by 2013.

    Now what: I stated earlier in the year that I felt Jazz could double yet again, and I stand by that assessment. Jazz continues to corner drugs in unmet areas of need which results in huge pricing power and little to no competition. EUSA’s portfolio precisely meets those needs and appears that it will be immediately accretive to Jazz’s rapidly growing bottom line.

    Normally I would be concerned about financing the deal almost purely with debt, but Jazz’s cash flow is so strong that I’m not remotely concerned. Assuming the mid-point of that $0.75-$0.85 2013 earnings boost, Jazz is on pace to produce nearly $5.50 in EPS and is still valued at less than 10 times forward earnings. Hands down, this is one of the best biopharma stocks out there.

    How High Can Cheniere Energy Partners Fly?

    Posted on

    LNGShares of Cheniere Energy Partners (AMEX: CQP ) hit a 52-week high yesterday. Let’s look at how it got here and whether clear skies are ahead.

    How it got here
    It’s been a wild year for Cheniere Energy Partners and its associates, as an export terminal for liquefied natural gas, or LNG, moves forward. Sabine Pass, which is actually owned by Cheniere Energy Partners and not Cheniere Energy (AMEX: LNG ) , has made significant progress in recent months on both a regulatory and financing level.

    Recently, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved the Sabine Pass project leaving just financing left as a major milestone left to clear. Under a heavy debt load, Cheniere will not be able to finance the project itself, so finding outside funding is key.Blackstone Energy Partners recently announced a $2 billion equity investment in the project, and the company has lined up eight financial institutions to arrange $4 billion more in debt financing. Right now, everything looks like it’s moving forward, and construction is expected to start in 2012.

    A new industry emerging
    The natural-gas drilling business has been hammered because of the low price of natural gas, but that has allowed a new industry to emerge as a result. Natural gas as a fuel has made major strides and those attempting to unlock its potential have become market darlings. Clean Energy Fuels (Nasdaq: CLNE ) and Westport Innovations (Nasdaq:WPRT ) are in the same boat as Cheniere, trying to unlock natural gas as a fuel, and have rewarded investors handsomely over the last three years.

    CQP data by YCharts.

    Now the question becomes: Can Cheniere Energy Partners continue this run higher?

    What’s next?
    Cheniere Energy Partners still has a long way to go before anything is exported from Sabine Pass. Blackstone’s deal allows it to convert its stock units into common units after two liquefaction trains begin commercial operation, something that isn’t expected until 2016. The company has already lined up millions of tonnes per year in contracts, so the project should pay off, especially now that Blackstone has entered the equation, but what should we pay? Blackstone got shares for $18 per share and also gets a 4.2% PIK rate — a sweetheart deal versus what you get for shares right now.

    Normal metrics also mean very little to an investment like this, and that’s what has me worried about over projecting the potential of Sabine Pass. The company already has a $4.5 billion market cap, $2.2 billion in debt, and stands four years from its prize of exporting natural gas. There’s a lot of risk there, and even if I miss out on the next run-up — which is very possible — I just can’t buy in right now.
