KUALA LUMPUR: Shares of Perisai Petroleum Bhd advanced to 92.5 sen on Thursday, the highest since July 19 as interest in the small oil and gas (O&G) player perked up.
At 11.14am, it was up three sen to 92 sen. There were 13.81 million shares transacted at prices ranging from 91 sen to 92.5 sen. Perisai's highest was 98.5 sen on Feb 17.
The FBM KLCI fell 0.04 of a point to 1,632.43. Turnover was 460.87 million shares valued at RM356.35mil. There were 209 gainers, 326 losers and 279 counters unchanged.
CIMB Equities Research has an Outperform recommendation on Perisai with a target price of RM1.53.
"We continue to value the stock at our CY13 target market price-to-earnings (P/E) of 13.3 times. Perisai remains an Outperform and our top small-cap oil & gas pick. A potential record 2Q performance and fleet expansion support our recommendation," it said.
The research house said Perisai's mobile offshore production unit (MOPU), which was servicing a 2+1+1 contract at Petronas's Bekok-C field, was the main talking point during its recent meeting with the managing director Izzet Ishak.
CIMB Research said the field's damaged platform, which the MOPU is temporarily replacing after a fire in 2010, will be refurbished and reinstalled, but the impact on Perisai, if any, is likely to be felt only in 4Q14.
"Separately, management is negotiating with Emas Offshore on contract renewals for five vessels and is confident of continued charters. Also, Izzet has emerged as the company's fourth-largest shareholder with a 7.8% stake," it said.
I will not be surprised if Perisai invited CIMB analyst to give them good projection in order to push the price up. In this way all their cronies would be able to sell and then the price will drop soon after that.
It's a fundamentally good company. But it has a huge problem is going up past 0.93 because speculators would take profit at this price. The drop is a good opportunity to buy - around 0.88 would be reasonable... and sell at 0.91. Yeah, just 3 sen but when you keep repeating it a few times, the profits add up:-)
his company will be announcing their earnings in the next 2 weeks.
VOLUME wise more and more instituitional investors accumulating PERISAI after analysts start covering this stock last week.
Yesterdays the share managed to tick up to 93sen crashing out all sellers at 92.5sen. No doubt 93-95sen will be plenty of sellers I believe net buyers will be taking positions soon as the earnings draw nearer.
Not only investors anticipating earnings I believe more contracts renewal will be in place this coming months making this stock very active in the market.
Take position now and keep in for a few more weeks.
For the financial period ended 30 June 2012, the Group generated total revenue of RM94.43million, an increase of RM60.37million as compared to RM34.06million in the corresponding period ended 30 June 2011.
The profit before tax for the current period amounted RM52.46million which represents an increase of RM37.05million as compared to RM15.41million in the corresponding period ended 30 June 2011.
For the financial quarter ended 30 June 2012, the Group generated total revenue of RM47.92million, an increase of RM31.01million as compared to RM16.91million in the corresponding quarter ended 30 June 2011.
The profit before tax for the current quarter amounted RM26.27million which represents an increase of RM18.1million as compared to RM8.17million in the corresponding quarter ended 30 June 2011.
The increase in revenue and the profit before tax for both current financial quarter and period ended 30 June 2012 was mainly due to the revenue and profit contributions from:
i. The Mobile Offshore Production Unit (“MOPU”) under Garuda Energy (L) Inc a wholly-owned subsidiary of Perisai; and
ii. The offshore support vessels under the Intan Group which is a 51 % owned subsidiary of Perisai.
fantastic results! 340% increase profit before tax for the current period, 280% increase for the current quarter. bro NajobZ, correct me if I miscalculated? thanks.
