The share price drop after the announcement 10% of placement shares...is this a bad news?? Or because of the crude oil price dropping? Can somebody explain?
KNM although is oil and gas stock, but in actual KNM business is on downstream section of the oil and gas mainly is integrated systems design and engineering, international procurement, manufacture of process equipments for the oil, gas and petrochemical industries.
Therefore, crude oil slump will have greater impact on upstream oil and gas involve in offshore vessel and support, exploration, grill etc due to cut in capex and reduce news oil exploration. The impact have indirect and less impact on downstream as petrochemical hub and refinery facility still needed to deliver end petrol product to user.
Aside involve in downstream oil and gas, KNM also have diversify into renewable energy sector, waster to energy in UK and biomass to ethanol in Thailand
The fund raising through private placement is to pare down borrowing, further reduce gearing from 0.35x to 0.29x and provide initial working capital to commence above 3 newly secure project. Stock react negatively due to fear of dilution earning in short term due to enlarge share volume base, but in long term KNM can benefit from reduce borrowing cost, reduce gearing and strengthen balance sheet to secure more project. The private placement price is based on not more than 10% discount to market price or MINIMUM 50sen, which is not far from current price now.
Strong tipu placement 0.50sen la... More have got upside sell liao.. Now focus shoot below 0.50 lower to buy back lo... U can watchlist this few day , laoqian sytle..

KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 23): Hong Leong Investment Bank Research is maintaining its "neutral" call on the oil and gas (O&G) sector, given Budget 2016's focus on ongoing projects undertaken by Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas).
"As expected, there were no O&G mega projects or awards announcement during the budget," said HLIB Research's O&G analyst Jason Tan Yat Teng, in a note to clients today.
"The allocation of RM18 billion investment is in line with expectation, given the total investment of whole Refinery and Petrochemical Integrated Development Project (RAPID) in Pengerang, Johor is RM88.6 billion over five years," he added.
He noted that the RAPID project with total investment of RM69 billion, is expected to create more than 10,000 job opportunities.
"We expect to see continued contract newsflows on engineering, procurement, construction and commissioning (EPCC) subcontract jobs for refinery plants and EPCC packages for petrochemical complexes, liquid natural gas (LNG) regasification plant and associated facilities," he said.
Given Petronas’ continued effort to reduce capital expenditure (capex) and operating expenditure (opex), amidst the low oil price environment, Tan expects to see more jointly-owned and operate model to be awarded to service providers, to share the capex burden with Petronas.
According to Tan, the main beneficiaries are KNM Group Bhd (fundamental: 0.85; valuation: 1.7), Dialog Group Bhd (fundamental: 2.5; valuation: 1.1), Muhibbah Engineering (M) Bhd (fundamental: 1.1; valuation: 0.8) and Pantech Group Holdings Bhd (fundamental: 1.3; valuation: 2.4).
He added that downstream players such as Dialog, Petronas Chemical Group Bhd (fundamental: 2.1; valuation: 0.5) and Petronas Gas Bhd (fundamental: 3.0; valuation: 1.7), will be the long term beneficiaries.
In tabling Budget 2016 earlier, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak had announced the Goods and Services Tax (GST) relief on the re-importation of equipment for oil and floating platforms that are temporarily exported for the purpose of rental and leasing.
Commenting on this, Tan said the supply related to upstream and downstream activities are still subject to GST at a standard rate of 6%, if they are supplied locally (including to offshore).
"Meanwhile, exportation of crude oil, condensate and gas, is zero rated. However, O&G service providers are able to claim input tax credit," he said.
Nevertheless, he said the move has a positive impact on the working capital changes.
Letter of Award of EPCC Contract by Cypark Sdn Bhd to SHK Consortium (the consortium comprising of KNM Process Systems Sdn Bhd and Hitachi Zosen Corporation) amounting to approximately RM268.38 million
Unless otherwise defined, defined terms used in this announcement shall carry the same meanings as defined in the announcement dated 28 August 2015 in relation to the SMART WTE System or Project.
