Subsidi bersasar is not good for Petron as it'll mean less consumption/demand of petrol and less sales at the pump. Don't know how it'll be operationalised.
This dumb management should realise that it should start to pay a lot more dividends. Why? 2 reasons - because it can afford to and to make up for the poor share price performance.
sold all at Rm4.50 (average cost was RM4.495, loss the broker fee + stamp duties), decided to quit this counter as this might be a sunset business with gov strongly pushing for EV and EV will rise in foreseeable future.
I think automobile counters like MBMR, UMW & SIME might still survive by venturing into EV manufacturing itself, but petroleum sales will goes down in future and EV charging business hardly a profitable substitutes business for pertol station as EV charging can be done else where like shopping mall and especially at home.
It'll take sometime before the full impact of EV kicks in. If Petron is impacted, so will PetDag. The Gov maybe shooting itself on the foot with this EV move. The old batteries will present an environmental headache.
In the meantime I hope this paid Board/Management is anticipating the impact and taking steps to adapt to the realities. Are they planning to continue to proudly announce the number of stations they're opening annually? Do they have something up their sleeves as to how to make money the network of stations?
Maybe with the high NTA with a lot not reflecting the current market value, the devious ones may just keep the prices low & then peanuts over and above to takeover/privatise the company (Like what Canone did to Kian Joo).
so it is just matter of time regardless, market usually react faster preemptively
indeed PETRONM is so much safer with NTA protection as compared to PETDAG, but I think takeover / privatise might not be that much viable if the business is going down sunset as it's assets, which mostly petrol stations, vehicles and facilities won't worth that much as book value since the business not going to be profitable anymore.
PETDAG high price above NTA is a lot danger seriously but gov under Anwar will care less about PETRONM I think if you know why haha
Sorry I just saw the comment in petronm. From Petron corp news
Consolidated revenues for the first nine months stood at P587.3 billion albeit lower than the previous year’s P631.1 billion as prices corrected from their extraordinarily elevated levels last year due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. While international prices started to rise again in the third quarter, the YTD September average of benchmark Dubai crude closed at almost $82 per barrel, still down 18 % from the same period in 2022.
Despite recording lower revenues, the Group’s operating income rose by 64%, reaching P27 billion from 2022’s P16.5 billion driven largely by the strong volume growth. This improvement allowed the company to absorb the more than 50% increase in financing cost, ending the nine-month period with a consolidated net income of P9.5 billion, 16% higher than last year’s P8.2 billion.
Should be good quarter 3 for petronm. When petron corp release it Q3 financial report in next few days then from petron corp Q3 net profit after tax attributed to non controlling shareholders you can work out what is Q3 net profit after tax for Petronm
Petron corp q3 end 30/9/23 result out: Peso million Net income: 3,366 Attributable to: Equity holders of parent company: 3,102 Non contrlling interest: 264
Since Petron corp hold 73.4% Petronm hence Petronm income = Peso 264/0.266 =992.48 million AT 30/9/23 1 RM =12.07 Peso Q3 net profit= RM992.48/12.07= RM 82.227 million
In my latest blog article, I covered Petron Malaysia ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrMdgjFHHaU ) and showed that it is not a value trap. My investment thesis can be summarized as • As of 30 Oct 2023, Petron Malaysia was trading at about half of its Asset Value and EPV. With the Asset Value about the same as the EPV, I have great confidence in the margin of safety.
• The Group suffered due to the measures taken to control Covid-19. With this behind us, it should deliver better profitability. However, this was impacted by high crude oil prices.
• The Group is financially sound and while there is the threat of the disruption of the petrol station business model, it is not imminent
A comparison between the past decade ROE and share price trend showed a discrepancy. You can see that the market price has yet to reflect the improved ROE. Is this an investment opportunity? https://i.postimg.cc/5tR4njp0/Petron-M.png
