Almost all my stock have recovered from the Japan Carry Trade Dip. One exception is Armada. Greedy Gary has committed to strategy of NO NEW PROJECTS and strong focus on green anouncements, the type of zero carbon or CO2 capture and more ladies in the office. This sure does not work out for shareholders.

Gary has run the ship into the ground, no doubt. There will be a one or two awards in the coming weeks/months, but they will not be FPSO contracts, which is the bread and butter of the company.

Some not-so-good-news. I am on the Navigator Gas investor call.
CEO says that there is a lot of uncertainty with regards to Bluestreak CO2's MOU with Uniper. It;s uncertain when it happens, and even if it does, it will most likely be pushed to the end of this decade.
However, there is potential to secure other CO2 projects sooner within the next 1-2 years.

Bumi Armada Berhad ("BAB") refers to the unrated Sukuk Issuance programme established in 2014 by Bumi Armada Capital Malaysia Sdn Bhd ("BACM"), its wholly owned subsidiary, involving the issuance of RM1.5 billion nominal value Sukuk by BACM ("Sukuk"). The Sukuk has a final redemption date of 4 September 2024.
BAB wishes to announce that its wholly owned subsidiary, Bumi Armada Holdings Labuan Ltd ("BAHLL"), has secured syndicated facilities with 6-year tenor at an aggregate principal amount of up to USD400 million. These comprise a USD135 million conventional syndicated term loan and a USD265 million Islamic syndicated commodity Murabahah facility (collectively, "Facilities"), the proceeds of which are to be applied inter alia, towards the full redemption of the Sukuk and its related cross currency and interest rate hedge liabilities. The Facilities, which are guaranteed by BAB, were arranged by Maybank Investment Bank Berhad, RHB Bank (L) Ltd, AmInvestment Bank Berhad and Affin Islamic Bank Berhad as mandated lead arrangers ("Arrangers") and made available to BAHLL by 8 participating banks ("Financiers").
On 15 August 2024, BAHLL entered into the relevant Facilities documentation with, inter alia, the Arrangers and the Financiers. Utilisation of the Facilities, and the Sukuk redemption, are expected to occur immediately prior to 4 September 2024. BAB notes that the Facilities were oversubscribed.
The announcement is dated 16 August 2024.

What good is secured financing, even oversubscribed if there are NO NEW PROJECTS going back 10 years. Greedy Gary will be throwing money out of the HO windows as there is no way to burn it through contracts, or any other normal way ?

Sadly, suspect this is for the long haul and it appears in transition away from fossil fuels and has not become the typical tomorrow stock. There seems not much point even if we scream from the rafters and go blue in our faces I doubt much attention is paid to us retail investors. If the kitchen is too hot one might as well bite the bullet as I think this mob is for the long haul. So it is well and dandy shooting Gary the messenger but the pivot is AK himself who is answerable for the misery laden on us the retailers , some of whom have fallen in love with it.

cut the crap. 2014 take 1.4b loan/sukuk, what happen to the revenue and profit?
Now need to borrow to pay for the $1.4b sukuk?
This type of kok-pen-rape transaction, even a cow can do
Lets see 2 years from now , if it will be penny 5c stock

That is normal to borrow, who run a business doesn't need to borrow money? Moreover, Armada only have high profit on 2021 and 2022, you ask them to reduce their cash to pay sukuk? Do you know what happen if a company lack of cash?
5 days ago
Since they have had no new project for 10 years, they should pay off debts rather than looking for new money. Or do you believe it is normal to borrow for day to day operations ?
4 days ago
I'm not supporting armadx, but have some question that is not clear
If the management got problem why shareholder didn't pull down greedy Gary?
Why they still able to borrow money since no new project for 10 years? Lender didn't scare their money unable to receive?
If so disappointed on this stock why don't leave it alone and looking for a potential stock. Don't fall in love with stock.
USD400 million -USD135 million conventional syndicated term loan - USD265 million Islamic syndicated commodity Murabahah facility (collectively, "Facilities"), the proceeds of which are to be applied inter alia, towards the full redemption of the Sukuk and its related cross currency and interest rate hedge liabilities.
135+265 = 400, they didn't mention use for day to day operation.
Normal to borrow because they didn't have high profit from 2014 to 2023 except 2021 and 2022. Impossible they used up 2021 and 2022 profit to pay off the debt then there will be a high risk of facing cash flow problem, maintain high cash flow is good for a company.

My impression on Armada is that the current share price reflect that the company will not be able to secure any more new project going forward and therefore will no longer be a viable business.
In other words, if the company is to closed down today, this is about 5-10% discount to what it can salvage.
If you believe this to be the case, then the price is fair value.
I personally believe the company is still able to secure new FPSO project. AND there is potential to venture into new businesses such as LNG, carbon capture, exploration & production.
I believe current shareholder shares my view otherwise they would have sold out and move on.
Company needs cash for projects. You get favorable term when you are not desperate.
The fact that they are securing new loan reflects that the management thinks there is potential projects coming.
I would be more skeptical if they were to pay down all the debt with their current cash holding (~900million as of last quarter).
Make your own judgement.

Guys the loan is to refinance existing debt. It will be repaid from the cash flow from existing projects, mainly from Olombendo FPSO which is on firm charter until 2030.

Full year core net profit is still on track to hit RM1bil!
This will be Bumi Armada's "best year ever", before profits decrease by some 30% next year, and gradually thereafter, eventually falling off a cliff in 2030.
Even in the absence of any new contract, simply securing TGT extension for 7 years, getting Kraken extensions for the next decade and a half, getting Sterling II extensions till 2030, getting Sterling III extensions to 2033 should put Bumi Armada on a handsome course.
The fair value is still in the 70 - 80 sen range as things stand.
We've had some good news in recent weeks:
1. Sterling V achieved full acceptance. Full charter rates will be reflect in Q3 2024 results.
2. RM1.5bil sukuk has been refinanced to a USD400mil 6-year term loan.
3. Kraken's first extension option has been activated.
Coming soon:
1. TGT charter extension

Strong quarterly performance in 2Q24 2Q24 core net profit of RM265m was 11% higher qoq as the 30%-owned associate Armada Sterling 5 FPSO received cash payment from its client, ONGC, in relation to services performed since it achieved first oil on 7 Jan 2024. This enabled the FPSO to contribute RM8.9m in share of profits to BAB in 2Q24, against a RM25.1m loss in 1Q24. BAB also booked-in engineering consultancy revenues from its jointly-owned FPSO companies in 2Q24; these helped BAB deliver qoq core net profit growth despite 1Q24 being a high base, with the latter having enjoyed a lumpy RM60m O&M revenue uplift after BAB had successfully renegotiated O&M rates for the FPSO Olombendo to cover higher opex. Full earnings contribution from Sterling 5 from 1 Jul 2024 Reiterate Add, as we see a still-strong earnings outlook for 2H24F. As the Armada Sterling 5 FPSO received final acceptance on 1 Jul 2024, this will enable it to book its full bareboat charter daily revenues. As such, the contribution from the FPSO to BAB will increase qoq in 3Q24F, and we think the stronger earnings performance can be a potential share price catalyst. Another potential catalyst is a likely extension of the Armada TGT-1 FPSO charter, which is scheduled to end in Nov 2024F, with BAB currently negotiating to extend the charter to Nov 2026F, although we think the charter will likely continue into late-2031F; we have incorporated this into our SOP valuation and target price of 79 sen. Ignore the likely impairment for Kraken in 4Q24F Downside risks include a likely impairment of the FPSO Kraken in the 4Q24F results announcement during Feb 2025F, which BAB flagged at its analyst briefing this afternoon. BAB first impaired the FPSO Kraken by RM437m at its 4Q23 results which was announced at lunchtime on 28 Feb 2024; this caused its share price to fall 12% that day. That 4Q23 impairment was the difference between the carrying net book value (NBV) of the FPSO Kraken on its balance sheet, vs. the lower ‘Value in Use’ (VIU) which is calculated by reference to the discounted present value of the Kraken’s future cashflows. With the VIU likely to be below NBV again on 31 Dec 2024F (because the Kraken’s firm charter period ends on 31 Mar 2025F and the option period rates are a significant 70% lower), another impairment is likely although we think the size of the impairment should be lower than for 4Q23. We are not concerned about the impairment as the contracted cashflows for the FPSO Kraken remain unchanged and therefore, our DCF value of the FPSO Kraken charter contract is not affected by any accounting, non-cash impairment.

BA is making record profit in the past 2 quarters and debt level has improved tremendously to 0.44. Why is no dividend in sight? Keep cash for new projects in the near future? or they can't declare dividends due to accounting rule constraints?
1 day ago
No dividend in sight could be one key reason why its share price is kept depressed
1 day ago
Dividend will need to be declared next year if there is no new project. The cash pile is going to grow by around rm200mil per quarter moving forward with the reduced debt load and the refinanced sukuk.

Obviously management won't commit to it, but too much lazy capital rolling around is unproductive and I'm sure the larger shareholders would rather it be paid out than sit and do nothing.

1H24 core profit beat expectations, comprising 60%/58% of our/consensus estimates. Excluding a RM53m upward revision of the daily operating fee of FPSO Olombendo (this portion was recognised in 1Q24 and for the 2023 period), the positive deviation in 2Q24 provided a boost in associate income. Out of this, RM8.9m associate income is related to Bumi Armada’s (BAB) entitlement to works executed for the 30%owned associate FPSO Armada Sterling V (ASV), between the period of first oil in Jan 24 to the delayed final acceptance that was concluded only in July. 2Q24 EBITDA of RM360m in line with quarterly average (2Q23: RM183m; 1Q24: RM417m). Subsea vessels remain underutilised. Other than ASV5, there were no unusual trends in the FPSOs, which were expected to deliver higher earnings relative to 1H23. This was mainly due to: a) FPSO Kraken’s downtime in 1H23 for the failure of the hydraulic submersible pump (HSP) transformers, and b) FPSO Olombendo’s higher revenue base after the daily fee revision. As expected, FPSO Kraken’s first yearly extension option (out of 17) was exercised into firm contract for Apr 24 to Mar 25, at 70% lower charter rates.

Firm orderbook boosted from RM9.7b to RM12.1b qoq in 2Q24. Albeit delayed due to various commissioning issues involving both sides ie the contractors Sharporji Energy and BAB, and the client Oil & Natural Gas Corp (ONGC), BAB will recognise its 30% share of the full bareboat charter for the nine-year contract. We noted that BAB’s firm orderbook from the JV FPSOs increased qoq from RM1.6b to RM4.3b in 2Q24, which clearly assumed a quarterly burn rate of RM0.3b-0.4b and the US$2.1b ASV contract. However, ASV has have a risk of claim adjustments. We understand that ASV will be recognised as an operating lease accounting. However, Upstream articles reported that payment dispute issues still lingered even in Jun 24. We understand from management that while the RM9m associate income was recognised based on entitled work done, it is still awaiting the outcome of a joint delay analysis, and any additional outstanding claims are still being negotiated. However, BAB was unable to guide when these processes are expected to be completed. Hence, despite having achieved final acceptance, we do not discount the risks of further volatility in ASV earnings until all the processes mentioned earlier reach a resolution. FPSO Kraken may have another impairment by end-24, given that the extension contracts were exercised on a yearly basis. To recap, BAB incurred RM514m impairment on FPSO Kraken in 4Q23. This was not related to the downtime due to HSP transformers failures nor the costs of repair, as the FPSO production recovered a few months after the incident. It was due to changes in macro-assumptions like discount rate (8.5% was assumed) and inflation rate. At that time, management guided that the residual value assumed was already conservative at 2%. However, BAB still used the straight-line depreciation method and this included the 17 years of optional periods. In contrast, Enquest (the client) employed the unit of production method depreciation on the FPSO. Now, we believe BAB is reassessing its method of depreciation, but there is no guidance until 4Q24. We also do not discount other reasons that necessitates another impairment review so soon after 4Q23. This is despite BAB’s guidance that it does not need to follow Enquest’ method of depreciation. Upgrade 2024-26 earnings by 7%/5%/14% respectively, after upgrading associate income assumption given that there are no more delays in recognising the full charter rate of ASV5, although we are mindful that there are still earnings risk related to these projects. VALUATION/RECOMMENDATION Upgrade to HOLD with an SOTP-based target price of RM0.55 after rolling over to 2025 valuations (5x 2025F PE). As expected, the share price retraced after we called a SELL on the stock back in Jul 24, when the rumours of the MISC-BAB merger surfaced. Despite the good earnings performance, we remain concerned that the low gearing may not be reflected as a positive market factor. BAB may appear as a discount to Yinson’s 15x PE valuation, but both peers are valued within 5-7x EV/EBITDA. ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, GOVERNANCE (ESG) UPDATES
