(Dec 1): After ditching the airasia Superapp name and rebranding as Move in September, Capital A Bhd’s digital arm wants to become an established and widely recognised online travel agency in Southeast Asia.
Move already has 15.4 million active monthly users in the region, and a share of about 10% of its estimated US$30 billion (RM140.17 billion) travel market, chief executive officer Nadia Omer said in an interview with Bloomberg News.
The company, based in Kuala Lumpur, sells flights, hotels, travel insurance, and financial technology products, and offers ride-hailing services specialising in airport journeys.
“The real inflection point in e-commerce, which I see happening in the next two to three years, is in travel,” Nadia said in Kuala Lumpur on Thursday, the same day Capital A reported that Move posted revenue of RM171.4 million for the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2023, up 68% year-on-year.
Below are edited excerpts from the interview with Omer, who became the CEO in October:
Omer: I’m originally from Pakistan, and I come from a very traditional background. My ambition in life was to get married, have kids and have a settled family life. I got married during my studies, and had my first child before my first job. But I felt I had no identity of my own, and my family encouraged me to explore a career. My first job was at Procter & Gamble, where as a young mother, I moved into baby-care products.
Later, Nestlé hired me, and I helped build their juices portfolio, and then I became the head of Nescafe and breakfast cereals in Pakistan. My husband later moved to Thailand, and I found a regional role with PepsiCo.
Then I realised that FMCG (fast-moving consumer goods) had reached a mature stage, and wasn’t growing 15% to 20% annually any more. I started applying for e-commerce companies, and joined CARS24, before the amazing opportunity with Move came up.
The Move branding, is it deliberate to set you apart from AirAsia?
It is. This is a separate entity. To be an online travel agency, you need to fulfil the different needs of customers — not all of those can be met by AirAsia. People are travelling to other countries, and they have to take other carriers. We connect them in ways so they can find those options. I want to make sure they find the right hotels with us.
You have premium travellers, mainstream travellers and affordable travellers. We are somewhere between mainstream and affordable. I want to serve the needs of these people better than anybody else.
How many components does Move have?
We have different verticals. First is flights — we have other airlines as well. We will introduce and scale up travel insurance, like, for the price of a cup of coffee. We are also developing buy now, pay later programmes with our partners.
What are your goals for 2024?
The first home run we need to score is that when we ask people what Move does, they don’t say it’s just for flights. It is for flights plus hotels. The government has announced visa-free entry for China, India, Türkiye and Jordan. We have China and India, two big diasporas that both love coming into this region. Next year, we will start focusing on building the app business there.
This is very interesting n promising business, even, no other airlines are doing it at present, using its own App...could be listed as SPAC in Nasdaq!?
Teleport, Catering n Pax Services we can see from nearest rival, SATS.
ADE (MRO)...SIA ENG.
SIA Group Aviation (SQ, Tiger n Scoot).
AirAsia MOVE, almost same like GRAB...it's the customers that matter...AirAsia Aviation will attract more loyal customers...even if they don't earn much from seats capacity growth.
Hold for #50/100%...then take Action 🐂🚀

Lease liabilities
The lease liabilities amounting to RM18.9 billion includes deferred aircraft leases of approximately RM2.4 billion. The lease liabilities are supported by ROU assets of RM11.9 billion.
The Group had completed the restructuring of a total of 160 aircraft leases up to the date of this report including the waiver of lease rentals in arrears, as well as reducing future lease rates with a corresponding longer lease term, where necessary, and return of aircraft.
By end 4Q23, expect a total of 187 aircraft to be reactivated by 4Q23, with 161 aircraft available for operation and capacity to reach 74% of pre-Covid level
What can you expect the balance (187-160)= 27 aircraft lease yet to be restructured?

Can somone explain where is the promised Net profit of RM 10 million per year?
6 hours ago
Definition: Intrinsic value is the Present value of the investment of all the expected cash flow over the lifetime discounted at the appropriate discount rate.
Intrinsic value = (CF1/ (1+d)^1) + (CF2/(1+d)^2) + ----- +(CFn/(1+d)^n)
Where:
CF = Cash Flow in the Period
d = Discount rate
n = The period number
This Intrinsic value is actually a Discounted Cash Flow (DCF)
Example of intrinsic value is then the Sum of DCF expected cash flow from varies business streams/Divisions.
geary mind telling us what will be the free cash flow of ech division for you to derive at capA intrinsic value of:
Estimated: US$4B.!?
By the way where will capital A international get it profit and how much profit per year?

However, Brand AA is a RM2 paid-up capital with zero revenue and Fleet Consolidated Pte Ltd is a newly incorporated company that has yet to file annual returns or financial statements (read also as no revenue).
So 2 shell companies with zero value shall have a 'indicative valuation' of US1 Billion when listed in Nasdaq?!!!

5."The final principle is 'hope for good luck.' That's the most important one."
Geary, if your principle is just hope for good luck then you are destined for failure.
LUCK is when Preparation meets Opportunity and Success is 99% hard work + 1% good luck
“Hope for the best and be prepared for the worst” is a quote by Maya Angelou. Lee Child said, “Hope for the best, plan for the worst”. Zig Ziglar said, “Expect the best prepare for the worst”. Why is it good to be prepared for the worst because, by preparing for the worst, you can reach your goals much more smoothly and you can put more of your energy in having positive attitude knowing that you have covered any eventualities and lessening the negative chatter in your head.

Is Kenanga Analyst clueless and still talking about capA divest its aviation group to AirAsia X in exchange of shares to be distributed back to its shareholders?
Source : KENANGA
Stock : CAPITALA Price Target : 0.84 | Price Call : HOLD
Last Price : 0.865 | Upside/Downside : -0.025 (2.89%)
CAPITALA’s 9MFY23 results disappointed as the rebound in air travel fell short of expectations. We share its optimism that the recovery in air travel will further accelerate moving into 2024. It is unveiling its PN17 regularisation plan by end-2023. We now forecast a net loss of RM33m (from a profit previously) in FY23F but keep our TP of RM0.84 and MARKET PERFORM call.
It reported a core net loss of RM291m in 9MFY23, against our full-year net profit forecast of RM201m and the full-year consensus net profit estimate of RM155m. The variance against our forecast came largely from the rebound in air travel falling short of expectations.
The key takeaways from the analysts briefing yesterday are as follows:
1. It is on track to announce PN17 regularisation plan by end Dec 2023 with completion expected by 2QCY24. We gathered that it plans to divest its aviation group to AirAsia X in exchange of shares to be distributed back to its shareholders.

Capital A in ‘last stretch’ on finalising PN17 exit plan
BY ISABELLE FRANCIS THEEDGEMALAYSIA.COM
KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 30): Capital A Bhd said it is in the “last stretch” of finalising its Practice Note 17 (PN17) regularisation plan and aims to make a full submission to Bursa Malaysia in “the near future”.
“This careful planning ensures that our restructuring reviews and discussions are thorough, and reflect our dedication to long-term stability and strategic adaptability,” it said in a bourse filing on Thursday.
Bursa Malaysia had granted Capital A its third extension of time — until Dec 31, 2023, this round — to submit its regularisation plan to the regulatory authorities.
The group had triggered the criteria for PN17 in July 2020, after its external auditors EY issued an unqualified audit opinion with material uncertainty relating to going concern in respect of its audited financial statements for FY2019, plus its shareholders’ equity on a consolidated basis was 50% or less of its share capital.
Notably, Capital A had announced earlier this month that it plans to float its AirAsia brand royalty business and aircraft leasing unit in the US through a Nasdaq-listed special purpose acquisition company named Aetherium Acquisition Corp (GMFI) as part of its plans to regularise its financials. The group is seeking an indicative valuation of US$1 billion for the listing exercise.
Last Wednesday, its sister company AirAsia X Bhd exited PN17 status after its appeal was allowed by Bursa Malaysia.
The medium-haul low-cost carrier said the regulator would allow the group’s appeal and exempt it from submitting a regularisation plan if it posted a net profit for the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2023; it reported a net profit of RM5.56 million, down 77.83% compared with RM25.09 million posted for the same period last year due to higher aircraft fuel expenses and maintenance and overhaul costs.
While investors on Bursa Malaysia await Capital A’s regularisation plan, the group said it is considering various financing options for its operations in Indonesia and the Philippines, which could include an imminent initial public offering (IPO) for AirAsia Philippines and further equity raising from AirAsia Indonesia.
This comes after the airline business accessed the third instalment of a loan from Bangkok Bank, with the final settlement expected by the end of this quarter.
In addition, a US$200 million revenue bond intended for expansion of the aviation business is in progress, said the group.
“In the meantime, AirAsia MOVE is nearing the end of its due diligence for an investment by a private equity, and Teleport has recently secured their approved loan to enhance its working capital,” the group said.
Capital A chief executive officer Tan Sri Tony Fernandes had previously indicated that the AirAsia Philippines unit is planning an IPO for 2024, revisiting a fundraising strategy that was put on hold multiple times.
