For Mr SS Lee, I have a few questions for you to include in your list of queries during the AGM:
1. Resolutions 11 and 12: a) ask the Board and Management to disclose their solvency analysis that shows a liquidity concern if this quantum of dividend is paid out. The free cash flow based on the Statement of Cash Flow for 2017 indicates otherwise when you take into account forward earnings 2018 onwards. b) what would be their alternative final dividend for 2017? c) if a dividend policy cannot be established now, then when and for how much - bi-annually at least?
2. P&L 2017: a) if they cannot pay the dividend we are asking for, why then should the directors be paid a hefty increase in fees from RM1,671 million to RM2,837 million b) what is the basis for providing such a huge bad debt provision of RM1,383 million when the provision was a credit balance in 2016? Furthermore, a significant portion of these are deemed not impaired. c) revenue expectations for 2018 - the Board clearly indicated in page 41 that the gradual recovery of crude prices allowed them to increase their gross margins. So, what is the pessimism for not wanting to pay reasonable dividends as per my Points 1(a) and (c) above.
3. Why has the Board and Management not asked for any write-ups from external analysts - this would have at least reduced the amount of uncertainty being speculated in the I-Investor Forum?
4. Details on the progress of the upgrade and what financial improvement can be deduced once done. Also, they should be able to produce a better variety of petroleum products. What is the aim of expanding sales other than the current arrangement with Shell?
Thank you and best of luck with the AGM deliberations.
Dear all, Refer: http://klse.i3investor.com/blogs/Sslee_blog/155119.jsp Highlight; Yes, everyone; Follow your passion, follow your heart, follow your dreams, do what you love, believe in yourself and don’t give up.

For QQQ3, these are reasonable questions to ask of the BOD and Management from a shareholder. I am a shareholder of other large foreign conglomerates and have attended those company AGMs and asked similar questions with satisfactory responses. Hope to receive the same too from Hengyuan's BOD and Management. Thanks.
Just like last year, the quotas will only go to state-owned firms, the traders said.
China has so far issued 20 million tonnes of fuel export quotas for 2018, which means the government will set the rest of the year’s quotas at 23 million tonnes, they said, declining to be identified because they aren’t authorised to speak to media.
The new quotas are expected in early May, said one trader briefed on the policy.
The Ministry of Commerce, responsible for issuing the quotas, did not respond to a request for comment.
Apart from the changes in the way quotas are released, traders also expect Beijing to further cut the portion of quotas given under a tolling scheme in favour of general trade.
Under the general trade category, refiners get tax refunds after exports are completed or get a tax waiver on fuel exports, a policy that Beijing granted in 2016.
Under the tolling or processing rules, refiners are exempt from import taxes on crude oil that is bought from overseas for the purpose of producing fuels for export.
Oil products exported under the tolling rules are also exempt from export taxes, but have fixed volumes and time slots to export. Both crude imports and fuel exports in this arrangement are done under tight scrutiny by Chinese customs.

Now we all know why China had been importing crude oil like mad...obviously this will kill regional refiners.
With Dubai Crude as raw material, they have the sharpest knife edge to slaughter the asian refiners....
Dear JYinvest, Thank for the input. I will need this weekend to look into the past three year financial report comparision to prepared the questions. I do not undestand your question 2b. Bad debt provision of RM 1,383 million? Will look into it later. Thank you.
petronm dividend is more reliable compare to hengyuan. what i thinking is hengyuan is a company which reporting a fake accounting. too many bribery in hengyuan in the beginning.
wah...hengyuan needs to standby their accountants to handle all these questions lor....all the real and fake accountants here shud go agm and learn....kkkkk
HY management knows exactly at what level China and their own refineries in Shangdong China would go to flood asian market with refined oil....and the room for margin squeeze (using Dubai Crude in China which is cheaper by 4 USD/brl compared to Brent).
Thus, they know exactly the level of margin depression HY is about to face.....
They them self are the market maker....of course they know HY cannot afford a higher dividend than 2 cents.
Wow! End of hengyuan. Margin squeezed to nothing. Production halved after rm700m upgrade. Sure die! Eh wait wait wait, then you still at this forum for what? Low price also should not buy isnt it? What’s your agenda for still being here. And probably the most active commentator here some more. What motive?
