, (a) The two investment alternatives SIG is exploring are:



1. Replacement project: Buying a 35% equity stake in Southpoint Limited, which is an
existing company with established cash flows.

2. Expansion project: Buying four apartment buildings from Joe Burden Properties (JBP),
which is a new investment opportunity with potential for growth.



(b) To determine if the envisaged investment in Southpoint Limited meets the minimum key
performance indicators (KPIs) as at 31 July 2024:



1. Net interest cover: 45,,881 = 2.71 times (meets the minimum requirement of 2.5
times)

Potential consequence of deterioration: Increased risk of default on interest payments.

2. Dividend payout ratio: 10,,578 = 50% (exceeds the minimum requirement of
40%)

Potential consequence of deterioration: Reduced dividend payments to shareholders.

3. EBITDA margin: (45,675 + 3,200) / 84,450 = 57.4% (exceeds the minimum requirement of
55%)

Potential consequence of deterioration: Reduced profitability and cash flows.



Conclusion: Southpoint Limited meets the minimum KPIs as at 31 July 2024.



(c) Comment on the dividend policy of Southpoint Limited:



Southpoint Limited has a history of distributing large dividends to its shareholders, with a
dividend payout ratio of 50%. The company plans to maintain constant dividends for the
next four years, indicating a stable dividend policy. However, the company may revisit this
decision in the future based on profitability and economic conditions.
