Divested away Duty Free 3 lots in this week as part of usual and active stock holdings re-balancing for $26 nett gain. For its 4Q2014 financial results, revenue +4.7%, profit -10.2%. Higher revenue driven by increase in demand for certain products as a result of competitive pricing. Lower profit due to higher taxes and lower profit from discontinued operations. Total borrowings decreased by RM26.8 million, following a repayment of term loans amounting to RM12.8 million and a decrease in trade facilities borrowings of RM19.0 million. The decrease was partly offset by the increase in bank overdrafts of RM5.1 million.
Increased Tee International 15 lots as part of usual and active stock holdings re-balancing; total holding in it now at 34 lots. It reported soft financial results for 3Q2014; revenue -29.5% due to lower recognition of revenue and profit -13% due to higher admin costs from the acquisition of Interlift Sales Pte Ltd. It proposed an issue of 2 warrants for every 5 shares issue (exercise price of S$0.25 per warrant) to strengthen its capital base and support its expanding business activities. Its Group Chief Executive, Mr Phua Chian Kin did five open market purchases - 110 lots (16 May), 100 lots (14 May), 100 lots (12 May), 210 lots (9 May), 65 lots (8 May) in current May month.
Reduced HPH Trust 2 lots in this week as part of usual and active stock holdings re-balancing for $16 nett gain; total holding in it now at 2 lots. In its 1Q2014 revenue +2.7% and profit +18.6% versus last year. The average revenue per TEU for Hong Kong was higher than last year due to favourable throughput mix of containers from liners, whereas that for China was higher than last year, primarily due to fewer concessions granted to some liners and a lower empty/laden container ratio. Cost of services rendered +11.0% and Staff costs +3.0% due to higher container throughput, increase in external contractors’ costs and inflationary pressure. Its end of Mar'14 NAV at HKD 7.32 (approx. SGD 1.18); last done share price on this Friday at $0.895. Growth in the US and Europe is a major factor in determining the total volume of containers handled by HPH Trust. Consensus outlook for both is favourable in 2014. On 13 March 2014, HPH Trust entered into a strategic partnership with COSCO Pacific and CSTD through their investments of 40% and 20%, respectively, of effective equity and loan interests in ACT for an aggregate consideration of HK$2,472 million. The partnership will enhance its capabilities in servicing multiple mega-vessels simultaneously. It will further bolster all aspects of its port operations including its flexibility, efficiency, synergy and profitability.
Divested away PEC Ltd 2 lots in this week as part of usual and active stock holdings re-balancing for $14 nett gain. For its 3Q2014 results, revenue -22%, profit -22%.
