is the market backward looking or forward looking? I am beginning to ask myself. yes offtakes in QEnded Mar 22 was less. but does that mean, offtakes are going to remain low for the whole of CY22? the street is upset that numbers were not delivered. let's hope (and scrutinise) Mgmt to see if they are able to deliver the rest for 6months CY22.
Opex have increased, COF also increased- this indicates they are doing something (otherwise where is all that expense going towards?)
The Street may forgive this past less exciting quarter but if next quarter is also underwhelming, things may be bloody :P
Hibiscus Petroleum 3Q net profit soars nearly 10-fold to RM307.54 mil, declares one sen dividend Sulhi Khalid/theedgemarkets.com May 25, 2022 15:35 pm +08
https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/hibiscus-petroleum-3q-net-profit-soars-nearly-10fold-rm30754-mil-declares-one-sen-dividend KUALA LUMPUR (May 25): Hibiscus Petroleum Bhd's net profit in the third quarter ended March 31, 2022 (3QFY22) soared nearly 10-fold to RM307.54 million from RM32.03 million a year ago, supported by the newly acquired assets, high average realised oil price, coupled with careful management of costs and efficient operational performance. Earnings per share surged to 15.32 sen from 1.76 sen. In a Bursa Malaysia filing on Wednesday (May 25), the oil and gas company said its quarterly revenue jumped by 37.54% to RM297.06 million from RM215.98 million a year earlier. The group also declared a single interim dividend of one sen per share.
For the cumulative nine months ended March 31, 2022, the group's net profit increased more than seven times to RM397.55 million from RM54.08 million. Revenue, on the other hand, came in 50.09% higher at RM828.15 million compared with RM551.76 million. On a quarterly basis, the group's net profit jumped six-fold from RM48.49 million reported in the immediate preceding quarter while revenue increased by 4.45% from RM284.4 million in 2QFY22. Commenting on the group's financial performance, the group's managing director Dr Kenneth Pereira said this is the first quarter for which the group is reporting operational and financial metrics which include the newly acquired assets and it expects its numbers to further improve in the coming months against a backdrop of strong oil prices. "Our objective in recent months has been to focus on understanding the newly acquired Repsol assets so that we can operate these safely and efficiently. "We are also very pleased to be able to continue to reward our loyal shareholders with an interim dividend for the current financial year. "With the relatively high crude oil prices that we currently see, we hope to be able to close FY22 on June 30, 2022 on a positive note," Kenneth said. In January this year, Hibiscus through its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary Peninsula Hibiscus Sdn Bhd successfully completed the acquisition of the entire equity interest in Fortuna International Petroleum Corp from Repsol for a purchase price of US$212.50 million (about RM890.06 million). The company noted in a Wednesday statement that the financial performance of the group has been boosted significantly by the acquisition with the newly acquired assets contributing RM390.1 million and RM334.9 million to the group's EBITDA and PAT respectively. It also added that the fair value when compared against the final purchase consideration for the acquisition resulted in a negative goodwill of RM317.3 million. Meanwhile, moving forward, the group said it has seen oil prices at various price levels, on some occasions lower and at other times higher than at the current time. "Through these fluctuations, the group has managed to remain profitable. This is primarily because our average unit production costs for our producing assets have been below the average realised oil price at the relevant times. "The careful management of costs to maintain low operational expenditure and the successful execution of production enhancement projects are, therefore, key towards achieving low unit production costs. "Overall, we remained focused on delivering optimal performance in a strong oil price environment," it said in a Wednesday statement. At noon break, shares in Hibiscus settled three sen or 2.1% lower at RM1.40, giving it a market capitalisation of RM2.82 billion. Joyce Goh
Not sure if anyonr has idea on the avg production in their management presentation show 12k boe, if obly have 80days also 971k barrel. But oil sold only 471k boe. Means there is 500k boe produced in Q3 not sell... 500k boe >RM200,000,000. Am I right?
Stripping off exceptional items amounting to RM276.2m which includes RM317.3m arising from negative goodwill and impairment of intangible assets of RM44.9m for its Australian assets, Hibiscus Petroleum (Hibiscus) reported core net profit of RM31.3m (-9.3% YoY, 36.6% QoQ) in 3QFY22, on the back of higher revenue of RM297.1m (+37.5% YoY, 4.5% QoQ)
So long brent crude oil price is above 100 and hibiscus still below 1.50, there is no harm waiting? At least that's what I'm doing now... When's my 1.70???
This would be a knee jerk reaction to (uk) windfall tax and other perceived headwind. Cyclical or not, the oil price is not going anywhere "south" based on fundamental. Studying past records, current high prices should last at least 3 years (or more). Why 3 years (minimum), because it will take that long to increase supply (FID, design, fabricate, install and drill wells) to match demand that is showing no signs of slowing.
The windfall tax would affect around 10% of the earnings from UK. It's a small gesture to provide cost of living assistance to the British in this difficult times.
Hoi pang! It came straight down to 1.29 n rebounded. Now when it again hit 1.29 n 1.29 selling n 1.28 done, 1.29 oredy broken lar n it will go lower la. Its called downtrend.
That oso you dont know ka? Go fly kite lar. No need to trade stocks.

resent back.. yes success reload at rm1.26.. its for 2ndtime.. and final buy in.. now hold 272k unit averge reduce to rm1.28+ now if down more paktua die laa.. theee thee
I think many people are getting frustrated with the company's ongoing issues whereby the great assets are not able to translate into great earnings consistently as expected. There's many great o&g companies out there too eg: Occidental Petroleum Corp, Chevron Corp, Devon Energy Corp, etc
