avoid all property sectors. Keep cash in position next year, anytime will have market crash. refinery is about all about crack spread. oil does affect abit but not much . once should know petronm malaysia has 0 duration of maintenance. full force in production
“Taking profit at current levels would imply bagging total gains of 15% in a span of just less than two month,” Kenanga said.
It added that while its uptrend was still somewhat intact at this juncture, negative showing from key indicators, coupled with multiple retests of its RM12.98 (R1) resistance could be some early signs of a near-term consolidation.
“From here, keen investors could look to a possible re-entry at more attractive levels near supports at RM11.12 (S1) and RM10.14 (S2),” Kenanga said.

Study the data presented here carefully, you will never find a generous man sharing & spoon feeding such information in i3.
You will notice that Q3 average Gross refining margin 30 to 40% higher than Q1 (for Brent (Cracking) and Dubai (Cracking) - which is of slightly higher complexity than Simple refiners like Petron who does Hydroskimming).
This will result with Net refining Margin exploding by more than 50% relative to Q1 (minimum)!

The moderate decline is because Petronm would need to rest for a while given the sharp rise in the past 1 month, it's quite normal for a stock to pause and hovering a little. Fundamental and volume wise still very good and getting thinner respectively.
Anyway, if any panic sellers wanted to get out, we are more than happy to take over...why not ?
Most of the buy and sell are so fake these 2 days.............and volume is too thin to make the price go sharply down amid the release of superb result again.
Another record quarter result for Petronm is mostly likely to be achieved
Consolidated Sales volume slightly improved to 80.25 million barrels (MMB) from previous year’s 79.33 MMB due to strong sales in Malaysian operations. For Philippine operations, the continued focus on higher value market segments resulted in volume reduction of Diesel, Naphtha and LPG tempered by the increases in Gasoline, Petrochemicals and Kero/Jet A-1.
For Malaysian operations, all products exhibited growth due to its aggressive network expansion and marketing initiatives.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss surged to P= 465 million from P= 221 million on account of Petron Malaysia’s marked-to-market gains on outstanding commodity hedges.
Consolidated Sales volume went up 7% to 79.3 million barrels (MMB) from 74.4 MMB last year. Petron saw robust growth across all market segments namely Retail, Industrial, LPG, and Lubricants. In the Philippines, industrial sales increased by 14% contributed mainly by aviation and power-generation industries. Likewise, its lubricants and LPG businesses posted a 17% and 14% growth, respectively. Petron remained the undisputed leader in retail with nearly 2,250 service stations nationwide larger than three closest competitors combined. In Malaysia, the Company continues to expand its current network of about 570 retail outlets by building more service stations, particularly in underserved markets. On a per product basis, increases came from Diesel, Kero/Jet, Gasoline and LPG sales.
Meanwhile, Malaysian operations showed a 6% growth in the retail market mainly from higher gasoline sales.
A conservative valuation: Projected net profit RM400m, Free cashflow RM400m (usually FCF is even stronger than profit due to depreciation) EV/FCF 10x (Petdag at >20x, Litrak also >10x). Net cash RM200m (by end 2017, Jun-17 already RM90m).
Petron fair value now should be at least RM4.2bn or RM15.50 about 30% more return
1) PetronM had cleared the remaining borrowing (approximately RM67 mils) on September 2017.
2) Petron Corp incurred higher selling & Admin cost, as well as finance cost, this indirectly drag down the consolidated results. Having said that, PetronM should have a decent results.
I compared Phillipine Q3 with its Q1 and found out that the gross profit for both quarters are almost the same. However, Phillipine Q3 incur higher "selling & administrative", higher "interest expense and other financing charges" and "other expenses" that brought down the net profit. (Anyone can enlighten me where these expenses will reflect on Malaysia report?) Since Phillipine operation is closed for 15 days for maintenance, thus, I assume Petron Malaysia Q3 to do better than Q1.
how many companies make >RM100m profit a quarter in similar commodity industry? I can only think of Press Metal which is making around RM150m a quarter. Profit 50% higher than Petron, lower than Hengyuan yet market cap is RM17bn vs Petron, Hengyuan RM3bn each
On May 25, 2017, PFISB prepaid the remaining balance of the 50 million loans in Malaysian ringgit (MYR) amounting to MYR38 million (P436). Likewise, on May 29, 2017, Petron Malaysia Refining and Marketing Bhd. (PMRMB) prepaid the remaining balance of the MYR100 million amounting to MYR67 million (P779). Also, on September 27, 2017, PMRMB fully prepaid the MYR100 million loan amounting to MYR67 million (P800).
