For Ron95 subs removal, I think it's a long term strategy to electrify EV via national cars. Foreign brands will benefit from it as there are different levels of buyers. Just my guess.

https://www.thestar.com.my/business/business-news/2024/10/23/positive-outlook-for-kip-reit-on-sound-acquisitions

" ... “We are optimistic about these acquisitions, as they align with KIP-REIT’s strategy to expand operations and increase total assets under management from the current RM1.06bil to RM2bil within the next three years,” the research firm noted.

... The increase in borrowing costs was primarily due to loan drawdowns for deposit payments related to the aforementioned acquisitions.

The rise in management fees was driven by higher charges from service providers, trustees and consultants, along with the additional manpower requirements for acquisition activities, which also contributed to the increase in operating costs.

... TA Research made no changes to the company’s earnings forecasts.

Consequently, the research house has maintained a “buy” recommendation on KIP-REIT with an unchanged target price of RM1.15 a share.

... KIP-REIT’s revenue for 1Q25 rose by 19.4% y-o-y to RM26.7mil, driven by a 19% increase in the retail segment, which accounted for 94% of total revenue.

This growth was primarily attributed to higher occupancy rates across retail properties.

The industrial segment also showed strong performance, with revenue increasing by 23.1% y-o-y, further contributing to its top line. "

"PROSPECTS
The Manager holds a favorable outlook, considering the positive performance of KIP REIT's existing property portfolio and their strategic endeavors to actively enhance leasing
and operational strategies while pursuing investments of high quality. As a result, the manager anticipates the ability to sustain a stable performance throughout fiscal year 2025.

The Manager will continue to manage the existing portfolio and exercise prudent capital management in order to deliver sustainable DPU to Unitholders. The Manager will also
continue to evaluate growth opportunities in its existing and new asset classes of retail and industrial assets."

"Quarterly and Year to date Results
KIP REIT recorded gross revenue of RM26.7 million in Q1FY25, as compared to RM22.4 million in Q1FY24, a growth of 19.4%. The increase in gross revenue split into 2
segment which is 19.1% from the Retail and 24.7% from Industrial.

The investment properties from retail and industrial segment contributed 94.0% and 6.0% of the KIP REIT total revenue respectively, whilst Southern, Central and Northern
region contributed 42.5%, 39.1% and 18.4% of the KIP REIT total revenue from retail segment respectively.

The net property income ("NPI") margin for the current quarter stands at 73.7%, is consistent with the 73.8% recorded in Q1FY24

KIP REIT's realised profit before tax for Q1FY25 saw a slight decrease of 3% compared to the corresponding quarter of the preceding year. This slight decrease is primarily
attributed to an increase in manager's management fee and borrowing cost."

i don't see the logic of share price drop 'cos more profit/value fr LPI. and the restricted offer is only for internal directors and eligible shareholders. if there is no successor fr the family, then the board has to find a long term plan to get qualified individuals onboard. and these individuals should have great interest/commitment to take the restricted share offers. one way is to distribute and the other is to see new leadership to rise.

Similarly, UOB SG has the same issue, no family member wants to tk over.
-just my thoughts.

If PB and LPI are making money, why run?
Anyway, is there anyone from the family taking over? (sorry, I don't hv much info on this)

sigh ... we only can decide to buy or to sell.
anyway, price now is rising ...

With this statement in the circular, "The Proposed Acquisition will not have any effect on the unitholders’ capital as the Proposed Acquisition does not involve any issuance of new Units by KIP REIT. ..," does that mean the current share price won't be diluted?

Xpeng CKD?

https://paultan.org/2024/08/29/bermaz-xpeng-looking-into-ckd-project-in-malaysia/

In the circular that's available today:
2.2.1 Details of the Proposed Placement
...
The maximum number of Placement Units to be issued for the Proposed Placement was
determined based on an illustrative issue price of RM0.815 per Placement Unit, which would
result in the issuance of a maximum number of 180,000,000 Placement Units. Notwithstanding
this, subject to the maximum number of 180,000,000 Placement Units, the actual issue price
for the Placement Unit can only be determined later and may be higher or lower than the
illustrative issue price of RM0.815 per Placement Unit.

2.2.2 Basis of determining the issue price of the Placement Units
...
In any event, the Placement Units will be issued at not more than 10% discount to the 5-day
VWAP of Units immediately before the price fixing date to be announced on a later date.

2.2.6 Utilisation of proceeds
...
For illustrative purposes only, assuming only 15,000,000 Placement Units are placed out to
Dato’ Ong Kook Liong and Persons Connected at an illustrative issue price of RM0.815 per
Placement Unit, the gearing ratio of KIP REIT will increase from 37.27% (as at 30 June 2024)
to 48.20% after the Proposed Acquisition, which is still below the prescribed 50.0% gearing
limit.

7.1 Unitholders’ capital
The Proposed Acquisition will not have any effect on the unitholders’ capital as the Proposed
Acquisition does not involve any issuance of new Units by KIP REIT.

The pro forma effect of the Proposed Placement (including the Proposed Placement to Dato’
Ong Kook Liong and Persons Connected) and on the unitholders’ capital is shown below:
No. of Units; RM
Existing as at the LPD 618,630,000; RM583,626,000
To be issued pursuant to the Proposed Placement 180,000000; RM145,020,000
Enlarged unitholders’ capital 798,630,000; RM728,646,000

7.4 Earnings and distributable income
The Manager believes that following the completion of the Proposals, the Proposed Acquisition
is expected to contribute positively to the earnings and distributable income of KIP REIT for the
future financial years.

The issuance of new Units pursuant to the Proposed Placement will initially dilute the EPU and
DPU due to the enlarged number of Units in circulation. However, after taking into consideration
the additional estimated net property income of the Property following the completion of the
Proposed Acquisition, the Manager believes that the Proposed Acquisition is expected to
contribute positively to the earnings and distributable income of KIP REIT for the future financial
years.

11. TENTATIVE TIMEFRAME FOR IMPLEMENTATION
Barring any unforeseen circumstances and subject to all requisite approvals being obtained,
the Proposals are expected to be completed in the 4
th quarter of 2024.
25
The tentative timetable for the implementation is as follows:
Meeting, 2 October 2024
Fulfilment of all conditions precedent, Early October 2024
Announcement of the price-fixing date for the Placement Units, Mid November 2024
• Issuance and allotment of the Placement Units
• Listing of and quotation of the Placement Units, Early December 2024

As for hydrogen powered transport, it is very costly to produce hydrogen. Sarawak has a different governance system and the Premier there managed to get support from Japanese and Korean technological support.
And China is going through housing crisis and its has very good high speed train infra in place, probably these are the factors that will slow down hydrogen adoption.

Why trade RM2.7 or 4B with risk?
YTL Comm CEO is a MIT grad with personal take on 4G expansion when all other legacy players were comfortable with their 3G.
There were many unreported details. Some even said the project only worth RM1B+. Someone(s) has plan to take the money.

It should be <RM1.
My personal deduction based on what I read and heard is that their actual IPO purpose is unclear and they are just not at MrDIY level.

ChatGPT concluded the water required for 200MW DC w AI chips using some calculation fr electricty/water effectiveness. I'm not sure how accurate or good is this.

"A 200MW data center with AI chips, assuming a WUE of 0.5 L/kWh, would consume approximately 876 million liters (or 876,000 cubic meters) of water annually. This estimate can vary depending on the specific cooling technology and efficiency measures in place."
