1. Flonic circular dated 8/2/13 on purchase of Jiwa Holdings:- a) To purchase 30% (300,000 shares) for RM 3.75m. b) One year option to purchase addition 21% at same rate. c) Jiwa Holdings has a 40% subsidiary Jiwa M&E. d) PAT guarantee of not less RM 2.9m for year ending 30/9/13 to shareholders of Jiwa Holdings
2. Flonic’s circular dated 3/7/13 on par value reduction process:- a) Par value reduction will wipe out the accumulated losses. b) Reduction still needs court approval - target mid August. Completion scheduled end August 2013 c) Jiwa Holdings has a ‘M&E clean up program’ for 7-11 stores in K.Lumpur with remaining project value of RM 4 million from Aug to Dec 2013. I presume here that this 7-11 clean up program is undertaken by Jiwa M&E, a 40% subsidiary of Jiwa Holdings which is a 30% subsidiary of Flonic.
3. Flonic’s announcement dated 23/7/13:-
a) Jiwa M&E has a 3 year ‘maintenance service agreement’ with 7-11 from 1/6/13 till 31/5/2016 with option for another 3 yrs. b) Fee is RM 800 per month for each store that has been certified ‘Integrated Maintenance Compatible.’ c) Flonic’s announcement to Bursa did not say no. of stores. Other news report state ‘1,100 stores belonging to VT’s Berjaya.’
4. From the above, my comments/questions are:-
a) How many 7-11 stores have been and are to be certified ‘Integrated Maintenance Compatible’? Can’t be all the 1100+ stores, all over the country – it will be a logistic nightmare to undertake the monthly maintenance works. Imagine the no. of branch/regional offices that Jiwa M&E would need to have in Penang, JB, Kuantan etc etc. b) The 3/7/13 announcement mentioned an existing M&E Clean Up Program with remaining project value of RM 4m for 7-11 stores in Kuala Lumpur which I presumed is by Jiwa M&E. So likely, the 23/7/13 agreement refers currently at best to 7 -11 stores in central region first c) The no. of 7-11 stores involved would not be many 100+, 200+, 300+? Only. d) Flonic’s stake in Jiwa Holdings is 30%. Jiwa Holding’s stake in Jiwa M&E is 40%. – value wise, this 7-11 deal is not much to Flonic but at least somethinglah. e) Remember – the par value reduction will wipe out accumulated losses and currently, Flonic has zero gearing. This will be attractive to any ‘new investor’. f) However, the par value reduction will have to be completed first….............end August.
