Covid-19 had totally destroyed capA balance sheet. The only way to rebuilt/reset the balance sheet is debts restucture where everyone need to take a haircut. But for reason only knew to Stony only AAX go thro' a debts restructure but not capA.

With net current liabiliaties of RM (12,507,207,000) where can capA going to get the money to fulfill the obligation to pay the current liabilities for next 12 months.

Why would lessors not agree to transfer the planes lease from capA to AAX (actually is AA Group, the new entity)?

The new entity AA is the combined business of AAX airline and the CapA plane lease business. Hence, the combined entity AA had higher earning with the combined earnings from both businesses eliminating lease operation costs. Therefore, the new entity is even more stronger. Transfer of planes are just matter of legal documents.

Merger Offer to AAX:
US$ 600 mil == Cash (US$200 mil bond) + AA Equity (US$400 mil)
[Note: Transfer of planes without the transfer of accounting (i.e.lease debt) would be totally nonsense!!]

AA only paid CapA = RM918.3 mil (1US$ to RM4.5915) cash
*** AAX (or AA?) to raise US$200mil bond (or could be RI)
the balance is in the form US$400mil EQUITY of new entity AA Group

Because the NOSH and PRICE of the new entity AA Group is not determined, that is causing the current chaotic price moving of AAX. This is likely to continue until things are known.

Lease liabilities
The lease liabilities amounting to RM18.7 billion includes deferred aircraft leases of approximately RM2.3 billion. The lease liabilities are supported by ROU assets of RM12.1billion.

The Group had completed the restructuring of a total of 161 aircraft leases up to the date of this report including the waiver of lease rentals in arrears, as well as reducing future lease rates with a corresponding longer lease term, where necessary, and return of aircraft.

Extrate from choivo capital blog:
Aircraft Operating Lease Income

With the purchase of these huge purchase planes to fund their regional ambitions, as stated previously, Airasia, the Group Company now had a new income stream that would grow far more profitable than expected.

It would not be unreasonable to say that by 2016, this has grown to be their second largest revenue and largest profit contributor.

Without it, the Airasia Group would be lossmaking.

Externally, this also caused huge headaches with accusations by GMT Research that Airasia was only profitable due to the leasing of these planes resulting in profit transfers from unprofitable regional Joint Ventures, to the group holding.

Internally, i’m sure the other joint venture or associate partners did not feel comfortable about this as well, as it could be seen as Airasia Berhad milking the associates for all its worth.

This culminated in the sale of the planes and the leasing business

28 Feb 2018 (Completed 31 Dec 2018) – BBAM Limited Partnership / FLY RM 9,775.6 million and RM 262.3 million (82 Aircraft and 14 Engines)

24 Aug 2018 (Completed 8 August 2019) – Castlelake L.P. USD 739.5 million (RM 3,559.5 million) (25 Aircraft)

25 July 2019 (Completed 31 December 2019) – Castlelake L.P. (RM 1,240 million) (14 Airbus A320-200)

Resulting in net gains of RM 298.8 million and RM 101.54 million, but a net loss in profit of around RM 643 million p.a until the new planes come in.

For the more cynical and realistic individuals, the real reason for the sale would be to settle Tony Fernandes’s and Kamarudin’s RM 1 billion margin loan that taken to inject into the company back in 2016 when prices of the shares were so low

By the way you sound like someone promoting jaks:

My view on jaks.
Buy jaks only in year 2030. After JHDP pay off the 10 year term loans, JHDP will be a cash cow and can pay yearly big dividend to jaks.

Note: Mike-tikus did not know the share of profit from associate company JHDP is just paper profit. What important is dividend from JHDP. Without the JHDP dividend Jaks will have cashflow problems and need another PP or RI for many year till 2030.

JHDP although reported very good profit but can't afford to give good dividend because the 75% loans taken to finance the project was changed into 10 years term loans. JHPD going to have cashflow problems depreciation is 25 years (good profit) but 10 years term loans (need to pay loan principal and interest in 10 year thus poor cashflow for the first 10 years)

LSS4:Revenue contribution of RM4.3 million was recognised in the Group from this division. This division incurred a loss before tax of RM0.4 million in the current quarter due to the depreciation charges and interest expenses.
This one mean have difficult in paying loan principal and interest.

The Group recorded a higher loss before tax of RM18.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 as compared to a loss before tax of RM5.3 million incurred in the corresponding quarter of the previous year. The higher loss was mainly due to lower share of profit recognised from the Vietnam joint venture of RM34.5 million, a reduction of RM11.7 million from the previous year’s corresponding quarter, mainly due to higher interest cost incurred by the joint venture, impairment loss on goodwill and receivables of RM23.5 million and RM32.9 million respectively.

The group impairment loss on receivable RM32.9. Mean after net off the reversal of provision made in previous years under Property Investment division the group impairment loss on receivable for FY2023 is RM32.9 million

Lol Mike-tikus or OleOleOle you took how many hour to work out all the below funny figures for capA?

That said, refer to Q4FY23 financial statements,
Assets associated with AA leasing:
Non-current Liabilities = -13,434.5 mil (RM)
Current Liabilities = - 5,259.6 mil (RM)
Right to Used = 12,066.8 mil (RM)
------------------------------------------------
Net assets = - 6,627.3 mil (RM)
Note: This amount is to be removed from Cap-A statement.

Merger Offer to AAX: US$ 600 mil
Cash (US$200 mil bond)
AA Equity (US$400 mil)
(1US$ to RM4.5915) = 2,754.9 mil (RM)
Note: This amount will add to Cap-A statement.


Hence, Total AA Leasing assets considered:
= 13,434.5 mil (RM) + 5,259.6 mil (RM) + 2,754.9 mil (RM)
= 21,449.0 mil (RM)
= US$ 4,671.458 mil (=219 aircrafts)
OR Each aircraft = US$21.33 mil (***** vs at least US$25 mil per aircraft for a 2nd handed A320 aircraft)


Back to Cap-A, now how do to get out of PN17?
Total Equity Deficit = - 10,469.5 mil (RM)
AA Leasing Asset removed = 6,627.3 mil (RM)
AA Merger Offer get = 2,754.9 mil (RM)
US Listing Goodwill = 2,360.0 mil (RM)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Net Cap-A Equity = 1,272.7 mil (RM)
== 30c NAPS

Hit turbulence in 4Q23

Return-to-service maintenance cost caused 4Q23/FY23 results to come in below our expectations but they will normalise going forward. More importantly, fares are rising on reduced competition. Our FY24E/FY25E earnings are little changed on housekeeping (i.e. MYR2m/+MYR2m). We also introduce FY26E estimates. Our SOP-TP is tweaked up to MYR0.94 from MYR0.92. Going forward, we still expect future quarters to generate narrower losses and eventually breakeven.

CAPITALA’s FY23 results disappointed as it was unable to push yields higher. Its positive EBITDA was completely erased by depreciation, aircraft leasing charges and finance cost. There is an urgent need for it to firm up on its PN17 regularisation plan. We maintain our FY24F forecasts, TP of RM0.78 and MARKET PERFORM call.

It reported a core net loss of RM450m in FY23, against our full-year net loss forecast of RM33m and the full-year consensus net loss estimate of RM352m. We believe the variance against our forecast came largely from its inability to push yields higher without eroding demand.

If the deal go thro' value capI at USD 10 and more likely than not on the first day of capI trading Stony and gangs will sell their capI holding to take profit.

Specifically, the deal entails CAPI to merge with GMFI and takes over the latter’s listing status, CAPITALA will receive 94% of the enlarged share capital in the merged entity or CAPI at a value of USD1b. Of the 94%, CAPITALA plans to distribute a 47.9% stake in the merged entity to shareholders. After the proposal, CAPITALA and CAPITALA shareholders will hold 46.1% and 47.9% stake in CAPI, respectively. The remaining 6% will be held by existing Aetherium shareholders. Brand AA will take on a USD150m term loan currently held by CAPITALA’s unit, Asia Aviation Capital Ltd (Labuan).
