Genting Berhad has substantial USD-denominated debt, amounting to about USD 6.53 billion. The Fed’s decision to lower rates reduces Genting’s interest expenses on its USD borrowings...leading to immediate savings on debt servicing (recurring benefits). As interest rates fall further over the next few years, these savings will likely continue to improve Genting’s cash flow.
interest rates generally boost economic activity by encouraging borrowing and investment. Genting’s U.S. operations, such as RWLV, RWNYC and Empire Resorts, could benefit from increased consumer spending, driven by improved economic conditions and cheaper financing options for U.S. consumers.
Genting Berhad holds significant assets in the U.S., Singapore and UK. These assets contribute to its NAV but are vulnerable to exchange rate fluctuations. When the USD, SGD weakens against the MYR, the value of U.S. assets in MYR terms decreases, affecting the company’s overall balance sheet and potentially its stock valuation.
Since Genting Berhad is trading significantly below its NAV, the market may already be factoring in the risks and uncertainties surrounding these assets, including currency fluctuations and the performance of U.S. operations. As a result, further reductions in U.S. asset values due to a weaker USD may not have an immediate or substantial impact on the share price, as it is already deeply discounted.
The Fed’s rate cuts provide a strong tailwind for Genting Berhad's potential U.S. IPO. The combination of lower borrowing costs, stronger consumer demand and improved equity valuations increases the likelihood of success for Genting’s IPO of RWLV, RWNYC and Empire Resorts..
If the current USDMYR exchange rate of 4.3 is sustainable, then Genting will benefit from the lower cost of servicing its substantial USD debt on a recurring basis, for as long as this exchange rate remains stable..
With the decline in the USDMYR exchange rate from RM4.71 to RM4.3, Genting Berhad has effectively reduced its USD-denominated borrowings.. which total USD 6.53 billion, by approximately RM2.6 billion. Moreover, if the USDMYR exchange rate drops further to RM4.0 by 2025, an additional debt reduction of around RM1.9 billion is anticipated.
Analysts' net debt forecasts for Genting Berhad appear achievable:
2023: MYR 15,000 million 2024: MYR 13,157 million 2025: MYR 11,072 million 2026: MYR 8,978 million.
This progressive reduction strengthens the company's financial position and prospects.
It's easy to calculate the savings on interest due to the reduction in debt. By applying the 5% interest rate to the debt reduction..we can estimate the recurring annual savings..
Previous secured loans are fixed loans that are already in force at agreed fixed interest rates until due.
Therefore, there is no impact of any financial gains in term of reduced interest payments even with Fed lowering interest rates.
Only future loans that have yet to be agreed upon and signed may enjoy any financial gains from any possible interest rate reduction by the Fed. An alternative of renegotiating existing terms and conditions favoring a lower interest rate of an existing loan is difficult.
As at 30/06/2024 (QR result page 11) Singapore : 18,815.3m (Exchange ratio of 1:3.4781) UK : 4,082.2m (Exchange ratio of 1:5.9633) US & Property : 27,326.8m (Exchange ratio of 1:4.7195) Oil Palm/Power/O&G: 16,009.7m (Exchange ratio of 100:0.0288; 100:64.9563; 1:1)
Total: 66,234m
As at 30/09/2024 (Estimated) Singapore : 17,905.93m (Exchange ratio of 1:3.31) UK : 3,901.96m (Exchange ratio of 1:5.70) US & Property : 24,897.82m (Exchange ratio of 1:4.30) Oil Palm/Power/O&G: 15,689.51m **
Total : 62,395.22m
Estimated loss due to Strong MYR : rm 3,838.78m (P&L paper loss)
** Oil Palm/Power/O&G, due to some mix with IDR/RMB/MYR. I simply deduct 2%
Question 1. How much interest can be save for the loan from 18/9/2024 until 30/09/2024 ? 2. Foreign currency liabilities is near 5,761.6m (with some plantation unknown amount denote in MYR). How much it can save ? around 307.22m ?
GB next quarter likely to huge loss due to paper loss ? My account not so good, enlighten me if I calculate wrongly. Kindly discuss rather than attack. Thank you.
from chart can see 4-4.20 price area should be the immediate support,unless big crash....then can break below the prices of last year june to nov......
when the whole masses expect big crash after this US big rate cut,the market always kill those who expect the what they THINK they should be expecting.sp500 futures up over 100+ points!those who shorted after last night closing or bought PUTS all gotten slaughtered!
Price already so low still got so many people selling. Under value stocks From 4.80 drop until 4.15.....when could recover ???????? I am also worry about TauRX.....can it happen before year end ????
chart is NOT JUST ABOUT CANDLESTICKS,its just part of the chart,zoom out look at the bigger pattern,and yes closing 4.15 is currently positive even after div date.
Where is ATKlown? lose until mother cannot recognize already? Genting cannot move up, this forces me to hold until Christmas, until Taurx announcement, until Genting rocket up to RM 6-7-8 tp.
Expect a one-time forex loss. However, the accounting treatment of forex gains and losses can be complex when it comes to financial reporting. We didn’t see a significant forex gain in the past two years, even though the USDMYR and SGDMYR rose significantly..By recognizing these gains or losses in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI), the company can smooth out earnings volatility and defer the impact of forex fluctuations..

Posted by AngTayKor > 1 month ago | Report Abuse ATK a ghost or not you decide lor. Hope some traders / trader cum investors here have read and exited promptly near the 5.20 top.
Then buy again at around 4.50 zone, exit at around 4.8+ zone. Then buy again at around 4.50 zone, exit at around 4.8+ zone. Then buy again at around 4.20 zone, exit at around 4.50 zone.
Its not difficult to trade this stock. I started buying when price was 2.97. When I stopped trading this stock long time ago, i think its equivalent to profit of selling the stock at over 8.00. -------- I have never shorted a single GenB stock. Better watch the stock's price action, the market is already whispering something now.... --------- Trader has already given his views if you have read his posts carefully over the past couple of days. *******************
See the difference in skill? At 4.50 zone trader gave prompt exit warning, the delusional ones keep promoting nonstop. Those kena stuck high at RM8 should learn some trading skills instead of doing delusional shortie bashing. If my brokerage account can trade short on Bursa stocks, I would have made double the money when I was actively trading this stock long time ago .

ATK: My cutloss advice only for MM (follow at your own risk). I think better listen to @prudentinvestor. Shut off your Bursa computer screen, come back after Christmas. It could be either near 3.50 or near 6.00. Popi popi 🙏🙏

By reducing its debt load, Genting can lower its annual interest payments. With debt reductions of this magnitude, the interest savings could be substantial. The interest savings from this debt reduction could result in an annual recurring saving of as much as RM250 million..
