This morning Ranhill made a long legally worded announcement about the Sabah State Government’s award of a contract to construct a 100 MW gas power plant to sell/supply electricity to Sabah Energy Corporation for 21 years. The price of electricity will be based on cost plus profit.
Currently Ranhill has a 380 MW gas power plant in operation and with this additional 100 MW, the company will have 480 MW gas power plant generating electricity to sell to the Sabah Energy Corporation.
That simply means Ranhill has additional profit growth for 21 years. Among all the share section criteria such as NTA, cash flow, debt, health balance sheet, EPS etc the most powerful criterion to push up share price is profit growth prospect.
That is why Ranhill share price has been going up higher and higher recently, especially today.
You can read the actual announcement as below:

Recently one smart accountant pointed out to me that KP Property has millions of Redeemable Convertible Preference Shares (RCPS). This will affect its share price. I sold all my KPP shares to buy KSL.
