spot on steady31... major shareholder appears to be all about himself and the faithfull are bearing the cost.. poor souls

(KUALA LUMPUR, June 6) Sources familiar with the matter revealed that Malaysia International Shipping (MISC, 3816, Main Board Transportation and Logistics) is in talks with Bumi Armada (ARMADA, 5210, Main Board Energy) to acquire the latter's shares and become its major shareholder.
Financial weekly TheEdge quoted sources as reporting that negotiations for Malaysia International Shipping to acquire Bumi Armada have been ongoing, but there has been no breakthrough yet.
In response to a reporter's inquiry, MISC also said: "The company is actively exploring any investment opportunities that can add value to its shareholders. If there is substantial progress, the company will communicate with relevant stakeholders."
It is understood that the above negotiations were conducted at the shareholder level and did not involve management, so the reporter did not seek advice from Bumi Armada.
The largest shareholder of Bumi Armada is Malaysian tycoon Ananda, who currently holds a 34.58% stake in the company.
Is India's Tata also a competitor?
It is believed that Ananda had the idea of quitting several years ago, and Shapoorji Pallonji Mistry of India's Tata Group also seemed interested in taking over. The latter served as a member of Bumi Armada's board of directors from October 2014 to February 2017.
However, there has been no follow-up action since then.
Malaysia International Shipping is a subsidiary of Petronas (holding 51% of the shares) and is mainly responsible for Petronas' transportation-related matters.
Bumi Armada is one of the world's largest floating production storage and offloading (FSPO) operators, with total assets of approximately RM11.59 billion as of the end of March this year.

Rohank it would help if you get up to speed with Finance 101.

Rohank. NPV as you know is a discounting mechanism. It discounts free cashflow from the future to present. Every year’s projected free cashflow is discounted to the present. So from my basic calc say discount rate 14 or 15% ( this can be determined with assumptions) you discount each year to the present. You could take 5 yrs or 10 yrs to discount plus terminal rate. Generally 10 yrs plus terminal rate. Hope this helps. Here in Malaysia one cannot predict 3 yrs in to the future so it becomes quite academic . This works well with large companies with steady cashflow and durable with few surprises.

This is just info and not to troll Armada's prospects with Kraken. I think this has already been baked in the price. Labour is expected to form the next govt

I am out but still will keep track of Armada and buy in only severe dips for the sole reason I think AK may just take it private for his upstream business. O & G stocks in the North Sea are being hammered due to the incoming Labour govt ( way ahead in the polls ). Policies are anti fossil fuels ;;;
Headlines Labour energy policies already impacting North Sea business
Labour's proposed ban on award new North Sea oil and gas licences has already spooked producers. UK Labour Plans £1.2 Billion Windfall Tax on Oil & Gas Giants.
I am sure some are already aware of this. This could probably be Armada's halting share price progress.

True, Ministers are not held accountable and can waffle through their teeth but WCE has made no comments on lateness except Section 7 b is being redesigned and no expected completion date.

spot on Mr Waters...recall Mike Lim an avid Armada supporter , he got out at about these prices and drove into YTL Power early this year at about RM 2.30 ( if my memory serves me right). Armada has done squat since then. Eventually it would move up I suppose

UOB may just have hit on the head for short term investors. Reality check perhaps.

Declining future free cashflows requires another job to bump up valuation or alternatively AK/UT and co offer to take it private at a premium as these guys play it close to their chest. Never discount that.

If tolling revenue is not too far off Choivo's assessment cashflow ( broadly speaking ) perhaps there is something to salvage but section 7 has become the archilles heel.

Not altogether true Sonnia. In actual fact it has dug itself out of a hole of its own making but it has not crawled out of it as yet. I have been there since 2012 ( in the hole) and holy cow the price I have paid ( or been paying ) since then. Management info is just lipservice ; fodder for the plebs.

Smart investors know when it is time to invest and there are others who are longer term investors with surplus cash who wait it out.

Maybank and Kenanga have structured call warants at ex price of 65 ( Jan 25 ) and 68 ( April 25) respectively and both on ex ratio 1. This is a slight hike from the 50 to 60 range. KLSE does not have big enough competing funds to challenge local institutions unlike other bourses; so odds stacked againt retailers.

Robert Waters, you could probably be right but the saving grace is that downside is limited (says he)..glad am out of this but if it falls to the silly price region may reconsider..
