Background
Siam Investment Fund III L.P. (SIF III) is a successor fund to Siam Investment Fund II L.P. (SIF II)
which is approaching full investment. SIF II was launched in 2000, raising US$57m .
Objective
To provide investors with access to the exceptional returns available through timely, opportunistic
investment in selective private equity transactions in Thailand.
Investment
Economy in Transition: Past - Coping with crisis. Present – Cyclical recovery. Future – Structural
growth.
Thesis
Resurgent Business Confidence: A revival in business optimism is spurring a revival in corporate
transaction activity and expansion.
Restructuring/Rehabilitation to Continue: An improving economy facilitates the resolution of
residual business problems.
Improving “Exit” Environment: Better capital markets, both for listing and refinancing, and growing
demand from local investors for rehabilitated assets.
Why SIF III?
Successful Track Record: SIF II and its predecessor, SIF, have exceptional records of both making
and exiting private equity investments in Thailand over the past seven years.
Sponsors are Investors: The Sponsors intend to be material investors in the Fund. Finansa Fund
Management will commit US$5m and CZI anticipates US$10m.
Value Addition: The Finansa Group has the critical mass of resources locally to support deal flow,
monitoring and exits.
Single Country Approach: The success of the Funds launched to date is due to the depth of the incountry resources. Comparable resources are not available on a regional basis.


The Fund’s original mandate was to seek long-term
appreciation through investment primarily in unlisted
companies in the SE Asia region. With the onset of the
financial crisis in 1997, the management saw
exceptional investment opportunities emerging in
Thailand and as a result the investment focus of the
fund shifted.
The successful implementation of this new strategy
resulted in SIF being amongst the top performing Thai
funds.

Section C
Fund Concept
Fund Concept
Thailand is enjoying a structural and cyclical economic recovery which will underpin overall
investment returns.

The Thai economy has staged a strong recovery since the Asia crisis and is currently one of the fastest
growing economies in Asia.

Growth has been spurred by government policies to stimulate domestic demand and by buoyancy in
exports.

The election of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra and a majority Thai Rak Thai Party Government
was a seminal event.

Thailand currently enjoys significant surpluses on its current account and a strong fiscal position.

Interest rates are expected to remain subdued in the absence of inflationary pressure.

There has been a material improvement in the financial health of the banking system. Banks are
shifting management focus from “old” to “new” loans.

Improvements in (overall) corporate profitability have been driven by cost cutting, improved productivity
and (more recently) volume growth.

In the area of Private Investment, few sectors (notably construction) have rebounded. The investment
recovery now looks set to broaden.
13
Fund Concept (cont.)
An economy in transition

1998-2003 was a period of post-crisis adjustment and recovery. Business confidence was fragile, the
banking system weak and reforms were necessary to spur restructuring and rehabilitation. Business
owners/managers focused on survival.

Today, business confidence is strong, the banking system is functioning to the extent that new loan
activity is picking up, capital markets are strong and businesses are looking to expand.

Longer term growth will be sustained by structural reforms.
Investment opportunities in the next phase of Thailand’s growth

Thailand “today” offers investment opportunities both in the final “clean up” and in the next stage of
the country’s growth.

Business restructuring will continue to be a feature of the Thai investment environment. A stronger
economy and higher asset valuations facilitate the resolution of “old” problems. Many early
restructurings were temporary remedies.

A period of sustained economic growth will underpin equity returns and valuations.

The exit environment has improved. Better capital markets enhance prospects both for listing and
refinancing, while there is growing demand from local investors for rehabilitated assets.

Fund Strategy
PCG Books:

CS
CS FI: Taxable or T-Ex.
Template: cover.ppt
Siam Investment Fund III L.P. will seek to provide investors with high returns through leveraging the expertise,
experience and business relationships of the advisors to source and effect investments in assets perceived as offering
significant upside potential. These assets will likely include:

Negotiated placements of new shares as part of the financial restructuring of businesses

Negotiated placements of new shares or equity related instruments to fund business expansion

Management Buyouts

Strategic disinvestments

Minority interests

Partnership capital

Assets offering scope for rehabilitation and transfer to a Property Fund
The Fund will typically adopt an active stance, with board representation and the ability to take control where
warranted. The advisors will seek to further enhance value through imposing higher standards of overall financial
management and providing specific assistance in balance sheet structuring.
16
Example 1: Pranda Jewelry Plc.

Pranda Jewelry is Thailand’s leading integrated jewelry
manufacturer and exporter.

The Company was founded in 1972 and listed on the
SET in 1990

The Company encountered severe financial difficulties in
the wake of the Baht devaluation in 1997, hit by a
combination of exposure to foreign currency loans, a
drop in demand and excessive inventory levels.

Subsequently, the Company entered a lengthy
restructuring process with debt rescheduling and debt
write-offs. As part of this, creditors pressed for an
increase in share capital.

In June 2001, SIF II bought 5 million shares of Pranda
through a private placement at Bt28 per share. This
represented a 25% interest. The total investment was
Bt140m (US$3m).

The Company has meanwhile pursued an internal
reorganisation and renewed focus on its core strengths.

Earnings have staged a strong recovery, reflected in a
significant recovery in the share price.

The Fund began liquidating its investment in February
2003.

Investor IRR 110%, Gain US$9.5m, 4.1x Invested Capital.
17
Example 2: The Peace Canning (1958) Co., Ltd.

Peace Canning, the country’s leading manufacturer of
canned pickled vegetables, filed for bankruptcy in 2001.

In 2002, SIF II acquired Peace Canning’s combined debts of
Bt3,000m (US$72m) from creditors for a cash consideration
of Bt520m (US$12m). SIF II became the sole creditor and
took control of the bankruptcy process.



SIF II, jointly with Peace Canning, submitted a debt
composition request to the Bankruptcy Court and this was
approved.
SIF II reduced the debt outstanding to Bt520m (US$12m)
and swapped the balance into an 80% equity stake in the
company.

In the end, SIF II received a) cash of Bt520m
(US$12m) through debt refinancing, corresponding to
its original investment and b) retained an 80% stake
in the Company.

Peace Canning has projected sales of Bt1,000mn
(US$25m) in 2005 and projected net earnings of
Bt120m (US$3m). The Company is planning to list on
the SET in 2H 2005.

On a preliminary P/E valuation of 8.0x, the SIF II’s
stake will be worth Bt570mn (US$14mn).

Unrealized IRR 26%, Value: US$9.8m, 1.4x Invested
Capital.
In 2003, the Fund Advisor negotiated a 7–year term loan
(MLR -2%) with a financial institution for Bt520m (US$12m)
to refinance the outstanding debts.
18
Example 3: Sansiri Plc.

Sansiri, a listed real estate development company,
was one of the first companies to complete a
restructuring. In 1999, Starwood Capital joined as a
strategic partner. Holding 7% of the equity initially,
Starwood had an option to increase its stake to 51%
through a warrant exercisable at Bt5.

During 2002, Sansiri shares traded as low as Bt3.
With little prospect of Starwood exercising its warrant,
the Company was unable to operate satisfactorily.
Management identified both the need for new capital
and the need to cancel the warrant. Canceling the
warrant was critical to the proposed recapitalization.

In August 02, SIF II subscribed to Sansiri’s Bt2,520m
(US$60m) capital raising at Bt4.41 per share. This capital
represented 67.7% of the new equity base. At the same
time, the warrant option arrangement with Starwood was
terminated. The subscription price implied a P/BV of 1.2x.

The fundraising transformed the Company’s prospects,
allowing it to proceed with a series of new housing projects
at a time when housing demand was increasing rapidly.
Sansiri is now recognised as a leading housing developer.

Following the private placement, there was a substantial rerating of Sansiri shares. Currently, the share price is Bt16.3.

Investor IRR 82%, Gain US$4.9m, 2.0x Invested Capital.
19
Example 4: F&B Food Service (Thailand) Ltd.

F&B Food Service is a full-line food distribution company
targeting the hotels and restaurants segment. Established in
1999 by the Booker Group, the business was acquired by
Royal Ahold in 2002. In 2003, Royal Ahold took a strategic
decision in 2003 to withdraw from the Thai market.

In October 2003, SIF II acquired a 76% stake in the
Company and an existing shareholder loan for a combined
Bt90m (US$2.3m) and committed to management to invest
a further Bt160m (US$4.0m) on expanding the business into
a national franchise.

A 24% stake was gifted to existing senior management by
Royal Ahold. SIF II also put in place a management
incentive scheme which enables management to acquire
additional shares as the shareholder loan is converted into
equity.

At the date of acquisition, F&B operated three
warehouses (Bangkok, Laem Chabang and
Had Yai). Three new warehouses will be
added in 2004 (Koh Samui, Chiang Mai and
Bangkok II). The expansion will establish F&B
as the leading company in this rapidly
expanding business segment.

The intention is to exit the investment through
a public listing in 2006 or by a trade sale.

SIF II has board representation.
20
Example 5: TISCO Finance Plc.

TISCO Finance is a leading, listed Thai consumer finance
company, with a strong position in auto finance. The economic
collapse in 1997 resulted in a surge in the company’s nonperforming loans and the need for a balance sheet restructuring.

In May 1999, under a government sponsored recapitalisation
scheme, TISCO issued 600m new convertible preference
shares at Bt10, raising Bt6,000m (US$150m). Half of the new
shares were acquired by the Ministry of Finance and half
acquired by private sector investors. This increased the total
number of shares in issue to 700m. The private investors also
received a covered warrant (on the MoF’s holding).

A consortium led by Finansa and including SIF and China
Development and Industrial Bank acquired the private sector
allocation. A representative of Finansa was appointed to the
TISCO board.

The case for reviving TISCO was strong and the
successful recapitalisation allowed the company to
participate in the subsequent industry revival (with fewer
competitors). TISCO’s earnings have enjoyed a
sustained increase since the refinancing.

The market was quick to recognise the transformation in
TISCO’s position and prospects and the shares enjoyed
a dramatic rerating.
21
Example 6: Other Investments

In April 1998, SIF acquired a 18% equity interest in
SE-Education (SE-ED), a listed book wholesaler and
retailer with a total investment of US$2.1m

SE-ED had been damaged in the economic crisis, as
had many of its competitors. The capital injection by
SIF enabled the Company to quickly establish itself as
the market leader and management embarked on an
aggressive expansion plan which resulted in SE-ED
opening retail outlets in all of Thailand’s 72 provinces.
A strategic tie-up with the rapidly expanding
hypermarket industry further strengthened SE-ED’s
market position.

SE-ED’s revenues and earnings grew strongly after
the recapitalisation, contributing to a significant
appreciation in the Company’s shareprice.

The investment was liquidated through sales on the
stockmarket.

Between 1997 and 1999, SIF invested US$5.3m in a
14% stake in Nation Mulltimedia (NMG), the listed
publishing and media group. The investment was
made through private placements of new equity and
rights issues.

NMG encountered sever financial difficulties in the
wake of the 1997 economic crisis, compounded by
an ill-judged investment in a real estate project.

While provisioning against losses, the Company
expanded its media reach (into television) and
exploited a strong recovery in advertising spending.

For a brief period in late 1999, following the merger
of AOL and Time Warner, the shares enjoyed a
dramatic “.com” rerating and while the shareprice
bubble eventually burst, SIF’s overall investment
return, based on a gradual unwinding of the position
from 2000 onwards remained strong.
