Proposed acquisition of companies extended for another 2 months.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
We refer to the announcement dated 5 October 2017 in relation to the above.
The Board of Directors of the Company wishes to announce that the Parties to the HOA had on 4 January 2018 mutually agreed to extend the HOA for a further period of two (2) months to 4 March 2018 to facilitate the finalisation of the detailed terms and conditions in relation to the Proposed Acquisition.
Other than the aforementioned, all other terms stated in the HOA remain unchanged.
With the upcoming possible good QR, at least 15 sen final dividend proposed and acquisition of companies completed by 4 March, Favco share prices could climb further higher.
Crane business probably is in the bottom of the cycle, since 2013. Even though the quarter result isn't well, as long as the company is well managed, efficient in allocating its resources and low gearing, it can withstand hardship and have the endurance to thrive the sector recovers.
As you can see, Singapore's Tat Hong (crane leasing business) is having privatization, the insiders understand the business better than we do. I don't know when would be sector be recover nor optimistic on this, but this would be a good signal to be contrarian.
Just don't understand how it can go up when both revenue and PATMI is in free fall. Expect dividend to drop to 8.00 cents for FY18 as FCF turned negative.
copy INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS Favelle Favco’s 2QFY18 reported earnings declined - 43.5%yoy to RM7.3m Normalised earnings excluding exceptional items within estimates at RM20.5m Current orderbook at RM427m as at 23 August 2018 Bulk of the orderbook from various product segments Maintain BUY with a revised target price of RM2.93 _____________________________________________
Though revenue drop due to lower order books on hand, but bottom line still perform well. 1H18 PBT is seriously affected by forex loss and impairment loss. 1H18 PBT: 19,180 add back forex loss (8,718) and impairment loss (4,499) = 32,396 1H17 PBT: 37,823 minus forex gain (6,128) = 31,695
FCF turns negative is bcoz heavy CAPEX of 35mil in the 1H18 versus 7mil in 1H17. Once Favco completed the acquisition of new subsi, FCF this year sure negative but it won't affect their dividend payout bcoz this is the main source of income to their parent holder, Muhibbah Engineering.

@patrick13 favco buy what company? FCF turns negative is bcoz heavy CAPEX of 35mil ( what kind of job favco planning to do?) i'm new here , wanna know more...thanks
favco acquired 4 company(Exact Automation Sdn Bhd, Sedia Teguh Sdn Bhd, Exact Analytical Sdn Bhd and Exact Oil & Gas Sdn Bhd),with profit estimation of 20mil/per year...they have 70% stake of those company which mean at least 14mil profit per year.The acquisition just completed end of june 2018 and announced in early july 2018...so next quarter report should have contribution from this newly acquire business. U may google it to find the relevant news.

Even without capex, its operating cash flow alone already turned negative. This will affect the dividend payout. I expect it to be reduced from FY17 13.50 to 8.00 in FY18.
