Dividend distribution is generally subject to the availability of general reserve. However, the company can make capital distribution. In this case, as the power plant will be handed over to the Vietnam government after 25 years, the equity capital will be returned to the shareholders in the form of capital distribution.
--------------------------------- SALAM Mr DK66, maximum What % of profit in the JV can be declared as dividend? 50%,100%? 02/05/2020 4:56 PM
Actually the 30% or 50% reporting has significant impact, 1. the amount is in the quantum of 100m. 2. the P&L report summary appears as the cover of announcement to Bursa, it will catch public investors eyes. 3. this profit is real profit, it can be used for EPS, P/E ... calculation.
if continue for 3 yrs, it surely affects the stock valuation, lke P/E etc. ... many ctrs in bursa, although not paying dividend, as long as report profit, the price can sustain, not to say a very good profit.
firehawk, you do have a point there. Though I m tempted to think that share of profit will be based on the equity interest, my past experience as a professional auditor with KPMG Peat Marwick, Singapore would not allow me such believe.
It is always the substance of any arrangement that determines the accounting treatment of a transaction. Since the RCPS ranks pari passu with equity shares in all dividend payments, CPECC always get 70% of whatever that is distributed out of JHDP.
What's remain within JHDP regardless of being 50% owned by Jaks currently will become 70% owned by CPECC in 3 years time. In view of this, personally, I do not think the auditor will agree to 50% sharing of profit to be recorded in Jaks' books unless the management has reasons beyond my knowledge to convince the auditor otherwise.
Anyway, lets wait for management response to OTB's query.
In any case, the profit sharing of 30% is already significant enough to cause a boom in Jaks' share price given that the price is only around RM1 currently.

The auditor confirmed the profit taken into consideration should be 30% only. Thank you.
The answer is as expected and we shall have no more doubt in this regard though some may feel disappointed.
Thank you so much for your help.

The conversion of the RCPS will give CPECC a NET total of 40% interest in JPP. This mean the dilution of original equity interest from 100% to 60%, 30% each to Jaks and CPECC. Therefore, CPECC will ends up with a total of 70%.
--------------- brushsoo Hi DK66, Thanks for your contribution. I may not follow fully all your discussions.
Just wanted to clarify, the full conversion of RCPS entitle CPECC's equity another 40% of JPP, hence the equity interest is at 90% 3 years after COB?
How the 70% interest of CPECC, instead of 90% come into picture? 08/05/2020 1:41 PM
