Anything can happen in the market so we will see next week.
For today the price bounced off the SMA20 @ RM1.43 nicely and it hasn't really broken any support yet. In fact I may attribute this week's performance to the panic rally on Monday morning and today's performance on T+4 sell off since many rushed in to buy on Monday after resumption of trading.
Mr market is responding to possible foreign fund flee...be it barakah, hibiscus, umwog...When mr market speaks, guess everyone got to obey...Blue chips got support from institutional funds, but small cap will be in high "alert" stance. Happy investing!

Today, luckily tahan a bit when see hibiscus big drop that surely spill over to other O&G counter. At last grabbed xxx,xxx shares again at avg 1.45.
Year end is always good chance to build your portfolio !!!
tomorrow will be lower than 1.45...Mr Ooi, it's a downtrend, because it's the end of "uptrend" and it reaches max price.
Ans : I suggest you learn up your chart reading skill first before you tell me it is a down trending stock. The price is still higher than 20 days EMA. The candle closing today is a hammer, it means the price is temporary bottom. Thank you.
TIME FOR 'KEDAI KOPI MAMAK ANALYSIS' FOR ALL INVESTORS OF BARAKAH
(i) Barakah Package A, could single-handedly contribute about Rm 60m-75m p.a. in net profit (assuming 12-15% net margin - 300km pipelay; 100km/yr @Rm 5m/km). Existing works (i.e. HUC and commissioning contracts) would generate Rm 30m-50m p.a..With a market cap of 624m shares..one is looking at EPS of Rm 125m/624m shares (15%) = 20c/share. PE 14. **TP 2.80.
(ii) Barakah is further bidding for a T&I job, relatively similar to this PETRONAS’ T&I Package A, in Saudi Arabia but which offers a longer fixed duration (5 years) and improved day rates. The tender is now down to three prospective bidders and the award is expected be announced in Feb 2014. Should Barakah bags the job, it will likely deploy an external pipelay barge in the interim period..Revised TP target again.
(iii) Notwithstanding the offshore pipelay works, management has also alluded to its intention to bid for onshore pipeline works in Malaysia (i.e. RAPID). With an improving balance sheet outlook, Barakah could also save about MYR2m p.a. in interest costs should it re-finance its borrowings on lower interest rates (current: 8.1%).
Happy weekend Investors. Stay safe and cheerful. Neither the stock or the Management will let u down
Oil and gas stocks recently emerging star BARAKAH (Baraka offshore, 7251, the board trade clothing group), the initial listing of its shares from RM0.65, had opened just a few pages of a month, the current price is RM1 .55.
BARAKAH the pre-existence is VASTALX (VASTALUX energy), listed on the second board in the year 2008, but not long before the listing, the company's performance began to deteriorate.
When in 2010, VASTALX even suffered a fatal blow, the contractor's license by the National Petroleum (Petronas) terminates, then the company will be a dedication of appetite, and thus was included in the PN17 company ranks.
Fortunately, the company later got a BARAKAH this white knight, and ultimately to 3 ratio of 65 shares for equity swap inverted acquisition BARAKAH, then after the listing is transferred to BARAKAH.
VASTALX Since then reborn, later renamed BARAKAH, the company also began to get good results.
In the six months ended September 30, 2012 fiscal year, BARAKAH get 200 million turnover of 98.9 million ringgit, as the terms of the net profit achieved 41.06 million ringgit.
Core business BARAKAH for commissioning works, offshore transport and installation, connection and commissioning, and construction of the onshore pipeline construction and commissioned works (EPCC), as well as ship management and chartering business.
At the time of listing, BARAKAH has many works contracts (information provided by users): 1) to PETROFAC, NEWFIELD & TALISMAN provide HUC project, worth 495 million ringgit; 2) provide for the KPOC T & L project, worth 74 million ringgit ; 3) provide for the country oil pipeline commissioning works, worth 73 million ringgit; 4) to provide procurement, construction and commissioning services for Petronas PRAI 2 lateral gas pipeline, worth 94 million ringgit; 5) provide for the KPOC pumping, drying and dry preservation services, worth 20 million ringgit;
these contracts totaling 700 million 56 million ringgit a year to earn enough to make BARAKAH 40 million ringgit net profit in the next two years, and replaced with a minimum net income of 8 cents per share.
Originally the company's share price should have reached the apex of the (j19 times PE ratio), but recently a new contract letting analysts to re-evaluate the company.
December 13 (Friday), the national oil worth 10 billion ringgit awarded the Pan Malaysian oil and gas program (Pan Malaysia) offshore transport and assembly (T & I) contract, a total of three companies benefited, BARAKAH is one of them.
It is reported that the total value of BARAKAH matching obtained about 1.5 billion ringgit, the contract for a period of three years. Coupled with the previous contract, the company is currently in the hands of the total contract has reached more than 2.2 billion ringgit.
This new contract in the future be able to make much contribution to the company?
According BARAKAH earnings for analysis, its net profit margin (net profit margin) is approximately 13.7%, 1.5 billion over three years to perform the contract, that is to contribute to the annual turnover of 500 million ringgit, if still maintaining 13.7% of net Vice-earned, that company will be netted from 68.5 million ringgit a year of this contract.
So just this new contract, the company's net annual contribution has been made by 11 cents, plus 8 cents other contracts, BARAKAH future performance will likely reach 19 cents per share net income. Of course, when the real implementation of the contract, the contribution they bring may not necessarily so.
If we take 19 cents net income for future reference value to 20 times PE ratio to calculate the oil and gas sector, the future of its share price to rise to RM3.80 not impossible.

1 Barakah invested some RM300mil in pipelay barge Kota Laksamana 101. Nik Hamdan: ‘We started the year having an order book of RM 00mil.
Barakah ends year with RM2.2b jobs
Firm morphs into turnkey transport and installation contractor
BASED on the listing price of 65 sen per Barakah Offshore Petroleum Bhd share, the company that was floated on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia via a reverse takeover listing exercise slightly over a month ago would have an indicative market capitalisation of RM405.7mil.
Today, the market cap has more than doubled to RM915.8mil. Investors’ sentiment towards the stock was so positive it made a debut at 98 sen, a hefty 51% above the listing price. It closed lowest at 95 sen during its second trading day. The stock was trading at an average of RM1.35 to date. After winning the Pan Malaysia transport and installation (T&I) package A awarded by Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) recently, the company is set for more contracts going forward. “We started the year having an order book of some RM200mil but closed the year with a record of about RM2.2bil,” founder Nik Hamdan remarks. Historically, its order book is in the range of between RM200mil and RM300mil per annum. Excluding the latest T&I award, the company has RM700mil worth of jobs in hand. A significant chunk of that is contributed by the hook-up and commissioning job valued at RM480mil. “Winning this contract is a meaningful milestone. We have morphed into a turnkey contractor in the T&I segment from being a sub-contractor previously,” he tells StarBizWeek. Not only does clinching the award mean that it will have a sustainable flow of revenue for the next few years, its earnings base will be enhanced through the contract. In a report yesterday, UOB KayHian Research says the stock is a good investment in the long run underpinned by the additional pipeline commissioning jobs and upside from its tender book worth RM3bil-RM5bil. “We understand there could be an additional RM300mil to RM400mil upside to the RM1.5bil contract, given that pipeline commissioning jobs are not included in the T&I contract’s scope of works,” the research house notes. Going overseas Nik says its main contractor status serves as a boost of credibility when it ventures overseas. In the short to medium term, the group will like to focus on Saudi Arabia and Indonesia while remaining cautious as it does not want to over expand, he adds. The management previously indicated that it was studying other markets in the region such as Brunei, Vietnam and Myanmar having allocated RM5mil to scout for opportunities abroad from the funds it raised through the flotation. Notably, it is one of the three prospective bidders for a T&I contract in Saudi Arabia. Co-founder and executive director Azman Shah Mohd Zakaria says due to the importance of oil and gas (O&G) industry in the Middle East, the rates there should be higher, thus providing better margins. Maybank IB Research says in a recent report: “We gather that Barakah is bidding for a T&I job, relatively similar to Petronas’ T&I Package A in Saudi Arabia that offers a longer fixed duration (five years) and improved day-rates.” The research house also noted that the results of the tender will be known in February next year and that Barakah will likely deploy an external pipelay barge should it win the contract. Plate is not full yet While the contracts it has in hand will keep it busy for the next few years, the company is looking forward to win more contracts through open bidding. Nik says although the contract, estimated at RM1.5bil and spanning over the next three years is its biggest job to date, the company still has the room for more jobs. “The scope and value for T&I contracts are greater compared to hook up and commissioning and pipeline pre-commissioning so the segment will definitely be a leading revenue contributor going forward,” he says. With the steadier flow of income, the company will also be able to plan and expand their capacity more efficiently.
It is also looking to hire about 15% more management staff to support the business as it grows, he adds. “We can use the (enlarged financial) resources to look into other areas. As our base cost is covered, it will be easier for us to expand,” he elaborates. Azman says it is easier to qualify for other international jobs with the new record while its expansion will also spill over to other supporting businesses like its subcontractors. Going forward, it will study the viability of investing in new assets to complement its existing services depending on its job flow, Nik shares. Among some of the possible future investments include a diving support vessel worth about RM96mil to RM160mil (depending on the size and specifications) and another pipelay barge, if it receives more major contracts. Nevertheless, it does not have much concerns sourcing for vessels and barges because the company has good business relationships with the marine services providers. “Even though we do not own these marine assets, we will still be able to carry out the jobs without much hiccups because we had been working closely with them since 2006,” he says. Rome was not built in a day The businessman notes that the company size did not balloon overnight. While the major projects it secured happened just before and after it was successfully listed, the founding team had been building the company from strength to strength since it was incorporated in 2000. “When we were a private company, we had been building the company quietly,” he says. Nik points out the company’s commitment in meeting the requirement of the tender even way before it receives any major T&I contract, one of which, is its investment in crown jewel Kota Laksamana 101 (KL101). The company’s commitment to build the 137meter pipelay barge with eight points mooring system, 300 meter crane, helideck and accommodation for 300 pax, was a crucial stepping stone in helping the O&G player clinch the award. Nik says that with KL101, the company not only meet Petronas’ asset requirement for the contract, it is also the first pipelay barge to be built in Malaysia. “We opted to build it locally so that the flow of resources remain in the local market. Undeniably, building the barge overseas can be cheaper in other countries, there might be other risks that come with it,” he says, adding that the core local team in charge of building the barge can communicate directly with the vendor so that the specifications are built to match its requirements. Contract a re-rating catalyst Kenanga Research deems the T&I Package A as a game changer for the O&G outfit and re-rated the stock while UOB KayHian Research notes that new contracts and better margins will set the stock for an upgrade in earnings per share as well as price-toearnings ratio. UOB KayHian Research says that financial year 2014 (FY14) will not be the year Barakah realises its full earnings potential from the contract win as because it needs time to mobilise KL101 before ramping up activities. “Hence, we incorporate work orders for four to five months in FY14 and nine months in FY15 for T&I works. “For the remaining seven to eight months in FY14 and three months in FY15, we expect KL101 to be used as an accommodation barge.” The research unit also notes the need for the O&G firm to charter a second pipelay barge and other supporting vessels for work that cannot be performed by KL101. Due to the additional outsourced work, its net margins are estimated at lower rates of 10% to 12% versus 15% to 20% for work done by KL101. The brokerage also forecast its earnings to grow at three-year compounded annual growth rate of 46.3%.
Maybank IB Research and UOB KayHian Research called a “buy” on the counter with target prices of RM1.85 and RM1.70 respectively.

slts: u r here again my friend. Telling everone to buy lower. Wht happen to ur hibiscus?. Didn't I always forewarn u the dangers of 'spac counters' like hibiscus , when the PE is a high 400x, and no oil found. At least u should consider BARAKAH with contracts in hand and more to come. Don't come to a forum and talk this and that. We have enough good sifus like kcchongz, OTB, mktwatch guiding us here. If u r not an investor here, why so sibuk? There r ethics set by the ADMINISTATOR of the forum, follow that closely. Till them STAY INVESTED.
Just bought back Barakah. Growth stock with huge potential and handsome margin of profit for business it involves. With abundant opportunity overseas especially in the Middle East like Saudi, we will see the counter to sail to its TP of 2.00 by next year. Early next year?? Not impossible.
