Kenanga Report
KUALA LUMPUR: The ongoing restoration of Bumi Armada Bhd's Armada Kraken floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel could put the facility's operations back on track within the next one or two months, says Kenanga Research.

In a note, the research firm said it is positive over the progressive restoration of the Kraken FPSO's production, which cushions concerns of a major financial impact to Bumi Armada.

This comes following the offshore service provider's announcement yesterday that it had reconditioned and reinstalled a hydraulic submersible pump (HSP) transformer on the vessel, which brought its operating level back to 90% of pre-shutdown levels.

"We applaud Bumi Armada for reinstating operations close to full capacity in less than two months since the first shut-in announcement," said Kenanga in its company update.

On June 2, 2023, Bumi Armada announced that the Kraken FPSO had experienced a production shut-in following the failure of its HSP transformer unit, guiding that that there would be material impact resulting from the Kraken's shut-in.

By June 21, the Kraken achieved start-up and was able to operate at about 60% of its pre-shutdown levels.

Kenanga said it factored in a partial loss of bareboat charter income from the Kraken for June to August 2023, which is reflected by a "benign" 9% impact in its current forecasts

Following the latest update, Kenanga said it maintained its "outperform" recommendation and sum-of-parts target price of 62 sen a share.

"We like Armada for sustained traction in its efforts to deleverage its balance sheet (current net gearing: 0.8x), long-term earnings visibility from substantial orderbook in excess of RM20bil (including extension options), and it being the leading contender for a US$1bil EPCC contract for FPSO Cameia," it said.

However, it cautioned that investor sentiment may still be dragged lower by the possibility that the financial impact of the Kraken shut-in may be larger than expected.

It said there could also be substantial vessel repair and maintenance costs that are not fully covered by insurance, while client Enquest may request for reimbursement or impose penalties on Bumi Armada.

remember buy the rumor and sell the news.

Trade receivable almost as large as 1 quarter of revenue. Logic?
Especially the receivable is from China.

We slash our earnings forecast for FY23F-25F by 23-42%, to account for the decline in household spending. Our TP is reduced to RM1.16

Niki, where you get the update? Enquest IR or the xxx at Enquest, who operate the Kraken field
------------------------------------------------------------------
nikicheong A positive update, the Armada Kraken FPSO is targeted to return to full production in the matter of weeks, not months. We're looking at between the next 2 to 4 weeks.

Trust your own research and the rest to do is wait patiently

niki, no need wait for any research report. We all know well where armada can reach =)

announcement later , tommorow open 0.60

niki, please note that there are plan to restart this week. This doesn't mean 100% work as they did try restart before this but fail

The fact is CPO price hardly go up further.
At the same time cost of production is surging due to
1) high fernitiser price
2) min. wages raise from RM1,200 to Rm1,500

Y23Q1 another additional profit coming in.

30%-owned Armada Sterling V (the remaining 70% owned by Oil and Natural Gas Corporation) has sailed away in early November this year and is expected to arrive in the east coast of Kakinada, offshore India by the end of 2022. This paves the path for maiden earnings contributions from the vessel from 1QFY23 onwards.

Dun forget that no more Kraken & TGT shutdown for maintenance in next quarters.

Adjustments:
Net allowance for impairment: +RM4.5m
Reduction in residual vessels (fully owned): +RM25.9m
Reduction in residual vessels (JV and associates): +RM45.1m
Unrealised FX Gain: -RM8.2m

(a) Foreign currency effect on the Company’s business - 85% of the Company’s revenue was denominated in USD. Generally, if the USD strengthens, BAB net profit would strengthen.

Serbadk 2.0 in the making ............ check the receivables & contract assets and balloning debts.

11% dividend , highest among plantation sector.

armada much better with pe5 only

The four subsidiaries recorded a combined loss after taxation of RM56.6 million for the nine months ended Sept 30, 2021,

Meaning each quarter PAT will be increase around (56.6m/3quarters)=18.8m in Y2022

why not just direct buy oil stock like armada?

palm oil RM5000 , shares price stuck ; when palm oil drop to Rm3000-RM4000, expected panic sell down.
No point to hold palm oil stocks at this moment

why no INNO in Top Picks
