EWI target to fully sold all completed unit worth RM 1.3 billion by Aug 2023

After dividend distribution based on completed unit RM 1.3 billion, EWI still have RM 8 billion GDV project for future development

better sold all its 51% stake in investment properties, evolve mall and star mall. Incur one off loss is far better than continue quarterly loss making.

Any new Constuction bidding will only focus on high margin and include current elevated inflation cost. But, unlikely for jaks to secure any new construction work now due to lack of gov and private spending.

It is wise for Jaks to focus on power generation, to secure more solar power even at net single digit profit margin, the more the better due to steady income over long term concession

Construction loss incur due to delay in work progress and higher cost material and labour cost. However, loss making construction work is at tailing end.

Just wait for COD announcement on 50MW solar power plant anytime now.

Bought at 60sen

Noted, hope can secure more solar power plant in future, thin profit margin but steady income over 21 year concession.

Local solar power plant profit margin is very thin, single digit only, but still far better than loss making mall.

Jaks still have about 6 to 9 month meet dateline to subscribe 10% additional stake. If JV need higher reserve cash as buffer in power plant, then, jaks cannot use all its retain profit in JV to use for subscription for 10% stake now.

However, any short fall of RM 200m is rather limited due to strong cash flow in JV every quarter. A fraction or even half of requirement fund to subcribe equity can easily source from short term banking bridge loan

Hope for betterment forward as further downside is limited now

Recent private placement should raise fund RM 22m, at least meet 2 quarter cash flow needed. Next month when 50MW reach COD, should give some positive cash flow to jaks. Within next 2 quarter, jaks should meet milestone to increase stake to 40% after put aside some reserve cash in JV.

Thereafter, jaks should start record positive cash flow onward through quarterly cash dividend declaration.

however, jaks may need another quarter or 2 to accumulate more profit in JV if JV require some reserve buffer cash in JV.

Under Jaks JV assest, RM 610m back by its 30% equity stake in power plant assets in JV, another RM 220m in JV is jaks retain profit accumulating more than 2 year operation. Therefore, Jaks can use its retain profit to subscribe its option to top up additional 10% equity stake now.

Please take note, Jaks JV asset account for its own 30% equity stake, exclude its china partner asset in JV

Why cannot??? every quarter jaks record share of profit from JV and these profit is accumulating under its JV assest. Since COD, jaks JV asset already increase by more than RM 200m from RM 610m to RM 830m which is correspond to jaks share of profit in 2021 RM 135m and 2022 ( RM 145m), nett of dividend payout RM 71m back to Malaysia.

The reason Jaks cannot opt to cash out all its retain profit from JV is to working to subcribe additional its 10% equity stake in JV.

Vietnam power plant is operating positive cash flow, in which is aim to declare maximum all profit to JV. Jaks is free to cash out from its profit in JV anytime if wan after meet minimum reserve cash buffer in JV.

Please do some home work by calculating Jaks JV assest since COD 2 year ago, which show the JV assest have increase from RM 610m to current latest RM 829m after nett off RM 71m dividend payout

IPP is NOT paper profit, but is real profit as shown by Jaks last Q4 2022 result which indicate RM 71m dividend payout from JV power plant. Bear in mind, RM 71m payout is 25% retain profit payout after 2 year operation. The balance cash profit in JV still have about RM 190m, which is sufficient to capitalize for additional 10% equity funding which require RM 200m to subcribe

After 2 year Vietnam power operation, Jaks investment in 30% stake in JV have increase from RM 610m to RM 820m, mainly due to 2 year of share of profit about RM 280m (2021: RM 135m and 2022: RM 146m). Jaks have opt to receive first dividend payout RM 71m from share profit last year, therefore, the balance share of profit retain in JV investment is about RM 190m.

Jaks have another 1 year due to opt to subscribe additional 10% to up its share of profit from 30% to 40%. The cost to increase 10% is RM 200m. Therefore, Jaks no need to raise additional cash to subcribe these 10% portion as jaks retain profit in JV about RM 190m is sufficient enough to self feed its top up 10% equity, boots up its share to 40% now.

At least local loss making construction work have reach tail end, by just eliminate these loss making business will boost up jaks profit forward. Additional profit from 50MW solar power by next month will also contribute higher profit to jaks forward.

Jaks first 50MW solar power plant should be commissioning by next month, another steady stream of income for next 21 year.

Jaks share price affected by Malakroff loss making due to slump in applicable coal price, but, the factual is Jaks is different from Malakroff as all it coal price is cost pass through and payments are guaranteed by a take or pay PPA
contract (alike Malaysia first generation IPP award by M to YTLP, the most lucrative IPP)

Capacity payment is not subject to minimum
generated electricity. The calculation for capacity
payment is based on a formula and as long as we
produce electricity, the capacity payment will be
paid

1. The coal supplied to the power plant is entirely sourced locally, via the coal supply arrangement
signed with Vietnam National Coal-Mineral Industries Group, to ensure a stable supply of coal for
25 years.

2. Further, the coal price is pass-through to the off taker, and as such, JHDP is not exposed to the risk
on the global coal price fluctuations, and therefore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, JHDP should remain profitable.

3. JHDP will produce consistent earnings as most payments are guaranteed by a take or pay PPA
contract, therefore capacity income from the plant should remain as a stable contribution for
years to come

4. Capacity charge consists of approximately half of
the total revenue in year 2021.

4. The coal is supplied from Vinacomin on a preagreed price based on the coal supply
arrangement. We are not affected by the fluctuation as we are sourcing locally from
Vinacomin. Regardless of the coal price, it will pass through to EVN hence it does not affect our
profitability

Petron Corp Q1 result, the non-control interest profit is Peso 361m. The non-control interest profit refer to 26.6% non-control interest in Petron Malaysia. Therefore in total full Petron Malaysia profit should be

Flour selling price will retain elevated, while input cost wheat price is tumbling.

add more mflour at 67.5sen, average down

Wheat futures in the US fell toward the $6.2 per bushel mark, heading toward the two-year low of $6 touched on May 2nd amid renewed expectations of abundant supply among the world’s top producers. After a long period of uncertainty, Turkish President Erdogan stated that Russia will extend the deal guaranteeing grain exports out of Ukrainian Black Sea ports for 60 days. Such developments will preserve Ukraine’s access to key foreign markets and increase price competition with other major producers. Adding to the bearish pressure, the USDA forecasted a drop in global demand for the upcoming marketing year due to lower feed and residual usage. Still, the body downgraded production from Russia and Ukraine due to the impact of the war between both countries, while lower yields pressured output forecasts in Australia.

Wheat feedstock price have tumbling, but due to forward contract, Mflour still unable to benefit from low input cost, lag time factor. The low input cost will likely only able to capitalize in next Q, widening profit margin.

Mflour just alike cement maker despite increase selling price but still only able to fetch small profit margin due to high input cost Mflour (wheat price) and for Cement (coal price). Recent Cement post leap up profit margin due to tumbling in coal price, its matter of time due for Mflour to post leap up profit margin due to tumbling in wheat price
