12 Jan 2023:
PETALING JAYA: Capital A Bhd CEO Tony Fernandes expects the aviation group to exit the PN17 status, which has been a millstone around its neck, by end of this year.

His expectation is based on optimism of its growth potential this year following a strong rebound in travel demand post-Covid.

The investment holding group that is involved in aviation, logistics, lifestyle and financial services ventures, plans to submit its finalised regularisation plan to Bursa Malaysia as early as February.

“We can be out of PN17, definitely this year, I hope much earlier (than that). All of the consultants are now going through all the work.

Above is what Stony had said on 12 Jan 2023 then and now Jan 2024 paulthesotong " We are looking to start paying dividens again, perhaps on 2026 " Star Biz week page 8.. 6.01.2024

You still believe Stony????

Do you know capA in quarter 3 end 30 Sept 2023: Acquisition of a loss making subsidiary PAA result in gain in Intangible assets RM 3,943.0 million in the balance sheet? Isn't that magic!!!

Know why capA keep asking for extension to submit the PN17 regularisation plan???

The simple reason is once the PN17 regularisation plan is submitted and accepted by Bursa SC then within one year time of implementation the shareholder's equity must be minimum positive RM 40 million.

To acheive shareholder's equity positive you need debts restructure, capital reduction (to eliminate accumulated losses), share consolidation and capital injection (issuing of new consolidated share)

So even Bursa SC agree to capA request of extending the submitting of PN17 regularisation plan to 30 June 2024, come end June 2024 capA will still request another extension.

From its Negative Shareholders Equity scenario...Target Price should be around...@1.48...🤓(If positive Equity...@2.28)!?

Just check out monthly data of jayatiasa FFB production and the latest Balance sheet of Jayatiasa.

Nothing will improved untill Stony figure out how to make money flying people.

As shareholders maybe you should ask what had gone wrong and why CapA' NUMBER is horrible?

And why IBs analyst can't read financial report?
However, on EBITDA basis, it made close to about RM 400 million ++/quarter or about 1.7 billion/year.

People try to dress up financial statements with it.” “We won't buy into companies where someone's talking about EBITDA. If you look at all companies, and split them into companies that use EBITDA as a metric and those that don't, I suspect you'll find a lot more fraud in the former group.

What does Charlie Munger say about EBITDA?
“Every time you hear EBITDA, just substitute it with 'bullsh*t'.

CapA used to own the taxi company and charged regional AA JV very high rental. But alas capA sold the taxi company to pay high dividend to AA shareholders and now Stony had to work his ass/butt off just to pay the rental to taxi company.

Benchmarking capA with SIA is like comparing taxi driver driving a rented car from taxi company and one who is driving and owning the taxi company.

If I am not mistaken the debts restructure involved selling of assets, share consolidation 20 to 1 and issuing of new shares at RM1.00

So untill the debts restructure is done the share price will trade at between 0.04 to 0.06

Is that worth your time here?

Is CapA cash flow positive????

Do you know under MFRS 16:

(i) On the Consolidated Income Statement, expenses which were previously included under aircraft operating leases will be replaced by finance costs – lease liabilities and depreciation of right of use asset;

(ii) On the Consolidated Cash Flow Statement, operating lease rental outflows, previously recorded within net cash flow from operating activities, are classified as “net cash flow used in financing activities” for repayment of principal of lease liabilities.

CapA is now like a taxi driver, driving a rental car from a taxi company.
How many passengers a taxi driver must picked up to pay for the car rental before he can earned a living?

For capA even last quarter 89% load factor is still a loss making quarter.

KSL is a profitable company but the 3 Ku/Khoo brothers pay themselve RM10+ million per year and no dividend to shareholders.

Now their daughters are appointed as executive directors and how much KSL will pay them?

If only someone has listen to MrFox to sell his jaks and buy Ytl he would has now laughing all the way to the bank instead of repeating/recycle his outdated promotion material in jaks.

If only KYY talk the talk and walk the walk then he would not have made so many expensive mistakes.

I feel sorry for Stony (the way he sit and body language as arrogant, he can do no wrong and everyone indebted to him for making flight cheap and affordable) and AA employees.

Maybe AA employees should have join Singapore airline.

Wonder will AA employees getting any year end bonus?

By the way dividend received from Inari is more than enough to pay the dividend to Insas sharholders.

Only for those newbies who after reading few books of WB/Cold Eye etc then wanna aim to be a so called long term value investor....sounds very geng....lol

It shouldn't come fm such a seasoned old snake in the mkt

By the way do nothing is not an option. You have to monitor internal and external factor, the macro and micro economic factor that will impact the forward earning of the company.

Happy new year 2024 KCChong.

Market will always behave irrational and depend on all those international big funds whether they are moving their money from China/HK market to USA.

Otherwise how you explain the share price movement of Tesla compare to BYD.
Fundamentally is Tesla better than BYD???

Charity begins at home. If TTB has done so then icap shareholders will have a happy lot instead of venting their dissatisfied at i3investor.

If price drop and trigger margin force selling on ALP pledged Jaks share then no eye see.

By Feb 2024, if Q4 with impairment loss on receivables and goodwill plus no dividend from JHDP, jaks did not take up the addition 10% JHDP share, lose on LSS4 solar plant and Malaysia operation then most likely price will drop futher.

The billion dollar question: Will AAX take over capA's aviation?

Are we looking at another round of AAX debts restructure of paying 0.5 cent for every dollar owed, capital reduction and share consolidation 10 to 1?

Capital A’s aviation division already can't make money after paying the lease payment. Now on top of lease payment another loyalty fees payment to Brand AA.

Can CapA's aviation aka taxi driver able to survive?

By the way who gave authority to who to sign master brand licensing agreement dated May 31 this year, so that Brand AA has the right to collect royalty fees from AirAsia Aviation Group Ltd, Capital A’s aviation division?

Capital A International shall be made up of Brand AA Sdn Bhd and Fleet Consolidated Pte Ltd
Both Brand AA and Fleet Consolidated are newly formed subsidiaries and do not have any revenue.

Brand AA is a brand management company. It is the registered proprietor for all the rights under the AirAsia brand.
Under a master brand licensing agreement dated May 31 this year, Brand AA has the right to collect royalty fees from AirAsia Aviation Group Ltd, Capital A’s aviation division.

Fleet Consolidated, meanwhile, will primarily be responsible for the procurement and delivery of the requisite aircraft for the aviation group based on the agreed allocation plan.

The proposed deal is to merge CAPI with Aetherium Acquisition Corp (NASDAQ: GMFI), a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange for an indicative equity value of United States Dollars (“USD”) 1 billion based on an independent valuation of the AirAsia Brand.

By the way no one going to stop you from punting on an insolvent capA.

But for icapital to put investors money on capitalA and called it value investing is aka to the one eye man leading the blind.

If it is so easy to exist PN17 like what Stony put it PN17 is just an accounting issue then why keep asking for extension to submit the PN17 regularisariin plan from Jan 2023 to July 2023 to Oct 2023 to 31th Dec 2023 and now fourth extension to 30 June 2024.

By the way no one going to stop you from punting on an insolvent capA.

I speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth so help me god.

Many will be cursing Stony if Bursa SC proceed to suspend capA pending capA appeal.

Did Stony implied capA is too big to fail and Bursa Chairman and CEO should abuse their power in bending the rule and regulation for capA?

So now capA/Stony is above the rule and regulation just because he run a company or paid salaries and Bursa regulator did not run a company or paid salaries?

Should we give more power, the power of above the law to entrepreneurs just because they build and they disrupt and they create ?

Many people been forwarding to me. Thank you Saify . Thanks for bringing up Pn 17. Really it’s time Bursa Malaysia changes this and especially the thinking of rhe regulators . PN 17 is from the dark ages and not relevant in this post Covid world and mindsets need to change in the regulatory area. Capital A will come out soon from PN 17 but boy it could have been much easier and less costly. The higher levels of Bursa Chairman and CEO are great and commercial but others …. Not sure they ever run a company or paid salaries. Malaysia needs new level of thinking to develop this great nation . 2024 going to be awesome. M and A for the airline business and some great listings for the Cap A other business.
PS Saif not that crazy hahaha but more power to entrepreneurs . They build and they disrupt and they create .

PS watch my body in 2024. No more body shaming hahahahahha. Thanks to all the media for all the publicity you gave me hehehe. And the motivation to look bett

What is Stony trying to say?

Someone do not understand what below mean on capA financial predicament :

CapA do not know how to make money from flying people.
CapA used to make money from bulk discount from airbus. Charging JV high planes leasing and selling and buying planes for profit.

Now facing with high lease and interest payment Stony is totally lost on how to turn in a profit.

You can always say the glass is half empty or half full.
