Overview Financial Model Revenue Buildup Scenario Derivation IPO Basis
Data room · How Bear, Bear+, Base & Stretch are built

Four scenarios. Same model.

The Sophisticated brief shows four return scenarios in the IPO Math calculator. This page shows exactly which levers change to produce each one — starting from the baseline standalone model, applied to Asset Co and Marketing Co cash flow streams. Every scenario is a named lever pull, not a black-box number.

Bearworst-case, honest Bear+bear + AC re-tenants BaseRM 200m IPO Y8 StretchRM 300m IPO Y8
Start here — the reference case

Base is the standalone model + a listing exit.

Every other scenario is a delta on top of Base. Base itself is the standalone financial model at its default slider settings (see the live baseline), with two exit assumptions layered in: Asset Co exits Y5 at the LEAP consolidation, and Marketing Co exits Y8 at the Main Market IPO.

Base

RM 200m IPO Y8

The reference scenario. Standalone model at defaults, 3 centres operational by Y8, LEAP consolidation at Y5, Main Market IPO at Y8. This is the number PlayTown is fundraising against.

Upside — if the roll-out compounds

Stretch is Base + faster deployment.

Stretch keeps the entire Base cash flow logic intact, but assumes the multi-site roll-out lands faster: 6–8 operating centres by Y8, producing ~RM 20m PAT instead of RM 13m. At the same 15× multiple, the IPO market cap lands at RM 300m instead of RM 200m.

Stretch

RM 300m IPO Y8

The execution-priced case. Base + faster centre deployment + higher IPO PAT. Not the pitch's default — this is the outcome if things go right, not the outcome we ask investors to underwrite.

Downside — the honest Premortem-grade rebuild

Bear removes the growth story — and the listing.

Bear is not a percentage haircut applied to Base. It is a bottom-up recompute of what happens if Centre 1 misses its ramp by 30% permanently, AND — because Centres 2–3 depend on Centre 1 proving out — no multi-site royalty stream ever materialises. The listing doesn't happen. AC and MC both revert to 12-year hold with terminal residuals.

Bear + Asset Co exercises its call option

Bear+ is Bear plus a re-tenant trade-off.

If Centre 1 underperforms as operator-led venue, Asset Co has the option to re-tenant the Sports zone and F&B Food Plaza to specialist operators. The trade-off: AC gains specialist royalty income, MC loses Sports + F&B revenue. This is a partial hedge against operator-side failure, not against demand failure — if families don't come, specialists won't take a dead campus either.

Bear+

Bear + AC re-tenants Sports & F&B

Asymmetric hedge. AC investors prefer Bear+ (+0.23× MOIC). MC investors prefer Bear (+0.38× MOIC on original Bear MC). Combined is a wash. The option exists for AC subscribers who want a hedge against operator underperformance.

The reading order of the four scenarios

Bear is the floor — worst-case, honest, bottom-up bear stream derived from the locked P&L, no listing, no multi-site royalties. Investor recovers principal + low-single-digit IRR on AC, mid-single on combined portfolio. This is what we're prepared to survive on.

Bear+ is the operator-failure hedge — asymmetric between AC (better off, +0.23× MOIC) and MC (worse off, −0.38× MOIC). Useful for AC subscribers who want to hedge against operator underperformance. Does not hedge catchment failure.

Base is what we're pitching for — 3 centres by Y8, LEAP at Y5, RM 200m IPO at Y8, comp-median-anchored. This is the number that anchors the fundraise.

Stretch is the upside — 6–8 centres by Y8, RM 300m IPO. Not our commitment, our headroom.

Every scenario above is auditable end-to-end. Take the standalone model, apply the named lever changes, run the year-by-year cash flow, and you land at the IRR/MOIC shown in the IPO Math calculator on the Sophisticated brief. No black-box math.
