Have to wait for the launching of the second phase of its Pavilion Embassy to further unleash the upside potential of GOB. Its 2018 annual report revealed that the first phase comprising 3 tower blocks launched in Sept 2017 had already achieved 81% take-up rate....

So GOB may start reporting much stronger earnings in the next few quarters when the construction stage reaches more advance stage to be able to recognize more profits from the phase 1 of the project.

The entire Pavilion Embassy project has a total GDV of RM1 billion.

Good news from its quarterly result announcement:-

'Petronas has confirmed termination of the RSC agreement. The modalities for
handover of the operations and novation of contracts are on-going. Reimbursement
of capital and operating expenditure will be subject to audit and finalization by
Petronas.'

The features of the scheme include giving flexibility to banks in lending guidelines for first home buyers, requiring first home buyers to attend financial counselling to ensure they receive adequate financial advice before taking a housing loan, as well as reducing the overall cost of first home ownership such as stamp duty and insurance.

Recovery signs for property market...authorities finally acting on it.....?

Scomi Energy said it has submitted a letter to Petroliam Nasional Bhd, or Petronas, to terminate the risk sharing contract for the Ophir oilfield, which was not able to restore production of the wells.

"Subject to Petronas' consent, as owner of the field, Ophir will hand over the operations, novate all existing contracts and secure the imbursement of capital and operating expenditure for the development."

This company has strong management team. Therefore it will report very decent amount of profit whether the property market is strong or weak. Underappreciated property counter.

Despite the cooling measures initiated by the government the past few years to check the property market from rising too rapidly, the Board is optimistic of the Group's performance for the financial year 2018.

Tropicana will move north as soon as it announces the sale of its nearing completion W Hotel and the Tropicana Gardens Mall....

Tropicana’s profit before tax (“PBT”) came in at RM85.4 million in Q1 2018, surging 110.7% from
RM40.5 million in the corresponding quarter in 2017, led mainly by the property development
segment. The Group’s earnings per share (“EPS”) for Q1 2018 stood at 3.17 sen against 1.89 sen
recorded previously.

Tropicana’s prudent cost savings initiatives and ability to align its growth strategies to suit the
changing market environment saw its net profit rise 84.6% to RM52.2 million in the first quarter of
2018, from RM28.3 million recorded in the corresponding quarter in Financial Year (“FY”) 2017.

"OPSB has written to Petronas requesting termination of the Ophir RSC, which would result in Petronas, as the owner of the field, assuming responsibility for the field, accepting novation of contracts and reimbursement of capital and operating costs not previously reimbursed via proceeds of petroleum sales."

In other words, Scomies should be compensated accordingly as it holds a 30% stake in OPSB.

It's a matter of time for it to divest W Hotel to realize the profit & cash flow for the group to further degear itself.

No point working hard to develop its land bank when no one believes in property sector & counters at this juncture... the counter simply could not move up despite pretty good profits reported in the last 2 years notwithsatnding the challenging property environment...no one appreciated the company's financial performance......

Waiting for it to dispose of W Hotel to realize extraordinary gain...........

Unbilled order book is equivalent to 2.7x times of 2017 annual revenue. Hence, good earning visibility for 2 years.

"Our 7-year Ophir Risk Sharing Contract (“RSC”) was a major
operational highlight during FY2017. The Ophir project is a seven-year
RSC contract secured in 2014 with consortium partners and is
located off Kerteh, Terengganu, Malaysia.

SESB managed to bring down operating costs which has allowed Ophir to remain viable in
the present scenario."


The above comment was made in its 2017 Annual Report (page 16) issued in July 2017 when Brent Oil price was much lower. So, RSC should be very profitable when Brent Oil trades at US$60 per barrel and above.

Under the joint-development deal, Malton will bear the entire development cost, while Ho Hup provides the land and is entitled to 18% of the estimated GDV of RM3.4 billion. The project comprises a shopping complex, shop offices, office tower, service apartments and a hotel. This alone will translate into RM612 mil cash flow for Ho Hup from the JV.

The last 5 year history or record showed that this counter only had a brief rally period which was not sustained for long. Effectively the major shareholders did not do much to reward its long term minority shareholders in terms of capital appreciation like other more reputable property counters like LBS. It looks like the company or its principals have no or little regards or confidence from the investment community. It is simply a hopeless company after all as its share price has been one of the worst performing for the last 3 years.

Most of its properties will be priced below RM1 mil. It has more cash than loans. Its land bank is mostly undervalued too.

Just keep this counter for another 2 years to see the result since its CEO is too old to work faster to launch the projects to unlock the value of this company.

Whatever bad news or kitchen sinking news has been reflected in its 5 year low price. This counter is poised to recover strongly in the near future as it is still one of the main beneficial parties to the Pan Borneo highway construction. Moreover, it has strong shareholders to support the company. Just keep this for a year. The upside should outweigh the downside.

RM400 mil cash & short term funds in hand !!

Half year EPS = 1.98 sen
