I am not a Kwailan, but having a Westerner as the MD does give me a big boost of confidence.
Icon, you are kwailan and RACIST loh. Hengyuan is china company now. then you said because guai lou is CEO you comfort. So next day Hengyuan appoint a PRC as CEO you sell? Joker
compared to studies conducted by many earlier expert like probability, etc. Icon article looks so like the kindergarten standard. what a pity. better don't write. After our analysis, PETRONM is a BUY.
nevermind paper...icon is helping to get the trust from people like ks55...these are the old generation folks who always carry balls of management...& their balls is all they care...he he

i) peoples linking of oil absolute Price with refinery Margin, ii) Alex Lu on wrong spread - refinery margin chart, and ii) perception of Chinaman association with HRC...
Walao, disappointed with icon sifu writing quality this time.This article ot write = no write man. Didnt gain any special insight. After airasia, really run out of ideas jor
haha.............icon need to fight many experts, tough lah. he just know insider news lah, goring this and tht only. what crack speed margin, he totally blank
the bank has no worries on providing HRC 1.3 Billion...why?
the inventory is oil..its been on planet earth for billions of years.. instead depreciating (or decomposing)...it appreciated drastically on 20th century...he he
A word of caution: Are the last two quarters' profits sustainable?
I suspect earnings were boosted by inventory profits during a period of rising crude oil prices. The coming quarter's earnings will be crucial given it coincide with falling oil prices.
For a layman one can visualize like this (corrected):
with a crack spread (composite of Jet fuel, Gasoline, Fuel oil etc) margin of 9 USD/brl, with throughput turnover of 30 days, they are actually raising their Oil inventory value by 9 USD in one month's time.
meaning if you have 800 Million worth of Oil inventory (say current price is 50 USD/brl Brent), in 30 days you had increased its value to 944 Million...
Value Addition is 144M per month! 432M in a quarter.. (this is no bullshit figure, this is indeed your expected gross profit if you have not stock loss at current refinery margins)
(for professionals they can use 1 Billion worth inventory with an increased throughout by 20% to maintain the same turnover of 30 days ...and see the jackpot numbers if they like!)
This means, in a quarter (3 months), the refinery is actually increasing the value of their oil by 3 x 9 USD/brl = 27 USD/brl!!
Oil value has a bottom threshold ~ 40 USD/brl due to shale oil... so why do you or the Bank need to worry?
Meaning even if Oil price drops by 27 USD to say 23USD/brl...you have a one time zero gross profit.. thats all.
probability no its not sustainable as the refining margins is increasing.. 12/07/2017 18:53
Prob... Assuming it's not sustainable... it's a bit mischievous of Icon8888 to annualise Q1 2017 earnings, and come out with a headline "...1.5x PER...", isn't it?
AFTER RAIDER CAREFULLY READING ICON WRITE UP IS GOOD, IF NOT GREAT LOH..!!
ALTHOUGH WHEN COMPARE WITH PROBABILITY, PEOPLE SAY LACK DETAIL LOH, BUT RAIDER WILL SAY THIS LOH...ICON WRITE UP IS NOT COMPLICATED...HIT THE POINT LOH...!!
YES...IF U WANT TO STUDY MORE...THAN U LOOK AT PROBABLITY WRITE UP LOH..!!
BUT ANY HOW ICON ARTICLE...IT IS BUY BUY BUY AND BUY LOH...!! NO WONDER HRC MOVE UP LOH...!!
YES PROBABILITY & RAIDER HAD BEEN HIGHLIGHTING HRC ITS UNIQUE INVESTMENT ADVANTAGE FOR MANY WEEKS...BUT DID NOT HAVE FAST SPRINT IMPACT LIKE ICON LOH...!!
ICON HAS HIS STRENGTH....RAIDER DO SALUTE LOH...!! THATS WHY LATELY ALMOST ALL ARTICLE COME UP BY ICON ON STOCK, RAIDER IMMEDIATELY JUMP IN AND BUY AND MAKE MONIES MAH...!!
Raider bro, I get this. But my concern is on the borrowing. It will be eating their bottom line. End up working hard for banks only.
Which is why I am more comfortable with PETRONM. But SHELL has higher potential for sure. If they succeed in pairing down borrowings.
But to be clear, its not apple to apple comparison here. If I am not wrong:
HENGYUAN-listed Refinery ONLY. PETDAG-PURELY PETROL STATION ONLY. PETRONM-Mix of Refinery+Petrol Station
Which why I like pteronm for Balance play. If refinery margin goes down, covered by Retail margin. If retail margin stress, sometimes refinery get better. Balance play is important. Either one might be higher risk to me.
and P/E x23 for Petdag is similar to Consumer Sectors like AEON, etc. So the same P/E might not be applicable if my above point is correct.
Normal refinery P/E not sure how much, mixture of both that's why PetronM deserve higher P/E. example P/E 10 for mixtures, P/E 8 for pure refinery? P.E 20-25 for Pure retail?
which Icon highlighted historical P/E 5 is average. That's why we should be conservative applying only P/E 5 for Hengyuan. which TP should be near RM18-19.00
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....

Also, Shandong Hengyuan is a state-owned enterprise, which makes it less likely to engage in fraud.
