u worry too much....
my sifu not worried, why u worried?

Not worried. Bought all the way up to RM1.80+ but sold it at RM1.00 for 45% loss.

Wrote scores of articles telling everyone to buy and margin, because the company and management is so fantastic, but got to sell at RM1.00.

What kind of business sense is that? Or is it Bullshit?

kc.....
if you didn't sailang earlier, now can do so.....

Me sailang? On Jaks? You mad ah?

You have been salanging and margining, and call everyone to sailang and margin when Jaks was above RM1.50. I guess you must have lost 76% of your capital now. How to sailang anymore. Can't even buy any I think.

I of course can buy if I want as I have plenty of bullets. But can you, and those who followed you sailang and margin at above RM1.50?

So who has been right and who has been wrong, those who margin and sailang and pestered others to do so, and those who listen to me and don't?

Apa khabar Hevea?

Every time I share an article, you would post this comment. Ok, I let you know what happen to my Hevea.

I started to talk about Hevea in November 3 2013 when its adjusted price then was 22 sen here.

https://klse.i3investor.com/blogs/stock_pick_challenge_2013_2h/40360.jsp

Of course I would have bought it earlier. I sold half of my holding on 24 November 2016 at RM1.514, and the other half at RM1.46 on 14 February 2017.

Can you calculate how much I had made ah?

truth be told I did say buy when it was $1.50 before hitting $1.80. never said a word since.


With your persistent and non-stop calls for everybody to sailang and margin and plus the above, Jaks has lost of 57 sen, or 38% from RM1.50 to 93 sen now. With 50% margin, I don't know how much you have lost.

Still triple your RM100k to RM300k?

Kcchongnz,
You may find my estimation hard to stomach. Based on ultimate 40% ownership, my estimates of FCF range between AVERAGE of RM300m to RM500m annually.


Wonderful. I would like to restate that you are the most knowledgeable person on Jaks's power plant. From our discussions, I can see it clearly. This doesn't mean I agree with you though.

I would stop my discussion about this right here.

Care to share with me your assessment on Jaks' power plant, including your estimate of this future FCF, discount rate and other assumptions? Will highly appreciate it. You are not obliged to though. It is ok if you don't wish to.

Any sharing from you will be strictly confidential.

Having said so, please don't be discouraged by my comments, go on and discuss whatever you guys like. I keep my mind open


Everybody invests differently. Some people need to have an estimated value, at least a ballpark figure before investing, nothing details. For example, an estimate of how much the cash to be received each year. Otherwise, how to determine if a price given is reasonable?
Yeah, I am talking about investing, not punting.

When we are faced with limited information about a project, Project/Equity IRR of a project becomes a valuable piece of information. Subject to certain assumptions, given the cost of the project, the debt ratio, the payback period and the operation period, "we could be able to roughly make a projection of the FCF pattern."
In my opinion, assumption of RM100m annual FCF is far too low and is contradicting both 12% IRR and 8 years payback period.


DK66,I am getting good opinion from you. Could you share what is the estimated FCF Jaks is getting in the future 25 years when power is being sold? What is your estimation of the present value of this FCF?

Kcchongnz,
That is the most crucial piece of information for our decision. However, there is very limited information on this part. That is where business sense becomes useful.
However, there are some yardsticks for evaluation,
1. Management has indicated that the IRR would be 12%. ( Cannot be higher as restricted to 12% by the Vietnam gov't on all foreign BOT)
2. Management has previously estimated profits for the project to be around US$150m.
3. Management has indicated that payback period would be 8+ years
4. Management indicated that the profit would be more than RM100m during the latest AGM
5. AES Corp 51% owned Mong Dong 1,240MW coal power plant in Vietnam which started operation in April 2015, distributed US$46m in 2016 and US$51m in 2017 to AES Corp. Normally distribution will grow as requirements for working capital, cash reserves for maintenance, and cash reserve for debt covenant, reduce over time.
6. An article in The Edge Weekly in 2015 cited IRR will be at least 15% from unnamed sources.
As I do not want to be doubted for providing projections which are "too good to believe" , I will not provide my projection on the free cash flow.
I believe you are capable of working out your projections based on the information above.
I hope I have been helpful.


To me, whether it is lucrative to invest in a company has any business sense must depend on, at least some estimations; how much I pay for the investment, and how much is my potential return.

1) IRR is only relevant when we carry out a financial feasibility studies. IRR must be higher then the cost of equity, taking into and topping it up with all the risks and their premiums involved. But now we are investing in Jaks at this moment in time, of which the power plant is one of the projects, we are be concerned of what its future cash flows, free cash flows in particular, for Jaks for the next 25-30 years. This is important as we can compare with what we pay for Jaks, and if this price is a good price, if we want to talk about investing for long-term, rather than speculating for short-term gains.

2) what is this "profits"? I guess you must be referring to the annual profits of the entity. So 30% for Jaks? Is this the same as free cash flows? Does it mean the entity just came up with USD160m initial capital, and getting FCF of USD150m when the power plant starts, and for the next 24 years? You said the JV partners need not come out with any more capital because the construction profit will pay for the remainder equity. This can't be true, can it. If so this must be the most lucrative PPA in the world and in history with IRR>30%?

3) IRR 12% is quite correct then if payback period is 8 years. But this must be cash flows then. But this statement disproves the above. The payback period is much shorter if the initial investment is 160m but 5 years later the jv makes 150m and continues.

4)Let say the profit is actually FCF. How much is RM100 from the power plant translated to EPS for the enlarged 800m shares of Jaks? 12 sen per share? What price are you willing to pay for this cash flows?

Bearing in mind also when we invest in Jaks, I reiterate, invest, we are investing in the whole company of Jaks, its power plant, property and construction, and most of all, its management.

5)No comment.

6) Does this violate the Vietnamese regulations?

I also believe the Vietnamese power profit would likely to be successful. Just ponder if Jaks is worth investing, and at what price.

No, I am not able to make projection of its FCF. I do not know much but just trying to find out more about it for curiosity sake.

the following information is extracted from section 2.10 of Jaks 2015 circular (link below) :
(a) total equity contribution required from Jaks is RM536 mil;
(b) as at 2015, Jaks has already made advances of RM196 mil to IPP. That amount will be capitalised;
(c) IPP construction profit will contribute RM226 mil; and
(d) Jaks to further inject RM114 mil. (probably through the latest rights issue of warrants and private placement)
The above info is correct as at 2015.

So it is not true that Jaks will not have to come out any more money. It still has to find RM114m.

DK66, do you agree? I am just trying to understand the project.

Kcchongnz, I don't know everything about Jaks. Let me try to answer your question anyway.
Rightfully, Jaks will be paid US$454m for its EPCC contract which costs Jaks about US$332m to carry out the works. Banks will finance 75% of the contract fees.
Accounting wise, Jaks will bill JHDP US$454m for the work done and get US$332m payment. Balance will be injected as payment for equity capital.
So, it will not affect the structure of the JV .

I know it won't affect the 70:30 structure of JV. But if banks were to fund the USD120m in construction profit, instead of the JV partners come out with that money, wouldn't it affect the capital structure of the JV, that bank funding would be say 90% now, instead of 75%. Would banks agree with this new capital structure?

2018-09-08 23:30 | Report Abuse

DK66,

You may be right as you know more about Jaks than me. I have a question here.

Jaks portion of equity requirement is USD110m in future commitment. That would be part of its share of equity injection which makes up its 30% stake in the power plant.

If Jaks (and the Chines)is allowed to use its construction profit to make up this remainder equity, who pays for this shortfall of USD110m?

CPECC, or the Chines banks?

If CPECC pays for it, wouldn't CPECC's stake be increased to more than 70%, may be 85%, and Jaks stake reduced accordingly?

If the Chinese banks foots the difference, wouldn't the capita structured changed? to 90%:10%?

kcchongnz, feel free to correct me ......

What you are saying Jaks and its partner need not come out with a single sen, but just by borrowing from the bank, and can own such a lucrative power plant in Vietnam for a concession period of 25 years?

I don't need to know anything about the project and I know this can't be true, can it?

No capital needed, and hence riskless, to own such a lucrative business from the Vietnam government?

Is there such a big frog jumping all around? What is so special about Jaks that it is the "chosen one"?

Commonsense, it is clearly written in the annual report that the capital commitment of the company is US$110m. Jaks' EPCC contract, which is subcontracted to CPECC, is worth US$454m. Based on its historical profit margin of 27% on the project, it is expected to earn US$122m whch is just right for its capital commitment. Hence, the vietnam project will not require any funding from Jaks.

I thought you are the most knowledgeable one in Jaks's power plant in Vietnam. Now I begin to doubt so.

I did bought Jaks but after attended JAKS AGM in 2017. I have doubt on CEO Mr. Ang ability thus sold all the share and never look back.
Thank you

Sslee, good move. That saved you from heavy losses.

There are two important things we must watch out for regarding the management of a company we wish to invest in, 才 and 德.

Many of them have the first one, 才, but few has the second one, 德. Without them better not to invest in the company. Worse if the management has only 才 but no 德.

It is the same thing if we wish to follow anyone in investing. I pay no attention if he has 财, but I will be very wary if he has none in 才 and 德.

A= jaks, B= lionind


"Margin call" and "forced" to sell A, but actually thought could make money with B, as there was euphoria in B with many buy calls. Easy to make money like that with cooperation by "others",like before, although I doubt he believed B is a good long-term investment as this was mentioned before. Only can manipulate sentiments of the public and make quick money if there is concerted efforts.

Now A keeps on dropping in share price as there was no more concerted efforts. Likely margin calls as banks have to protect themselves first. Instead of letting it to be "margin calls", make the top up. So sell B to top up for A.

Makes sense?

Dear KCChong,
I look into quarter report of HRC and Lionind. I think at most we can try to calculate/predict the operation profit. What is very difficult to predict is others losses sometime I suspect the management is playing with the account.
I really sympathy with OTB despite his hard working and doing a lot of research the quarter result remain unpredictable.
Thank you


All profits, whether operating or net profits are difficult to predict. It is difficult for retail investors, it is also difficult for professional analysts who have all the data, talk to management etc. Even it is difficult for management to predict.

Management can and often manage profit, but normally to make it good, rather than the other way around.

That is the theme of this article.

RM 100k also cannot take out to invest in KLSE, how to make million ?

I am so sorry to say it out in this manner, I have no choice because he misbehave himself.
I do not wish to attack any person in I3 unless he bad mouth me all the times.

I stop here.

Thank you.

this kc what is he good at?
whatever he is good at, making money is not one of them.

This article discuss about issues, prediction of quarterly results, steel industry etc. It has nothing to do with personality.

Why do you want to bring in kc?

Why do you care if he makes money?

Dear Kc, from the quarter report, exceptional item is Rm1.152 million for this quarter, how u get Rm10.3 million?

Your "exceptional item" is not the same as mine. Yours is a provision for indemnity, and mine is the gain in disposal of an associate mentioned in the footnotes.

KC,
A good intention do in a wrong way creates more harm than good
Do you agree?


Ah Seng, I thank you for the respect you have been giving me. In return I respect you too.

As I have said, good medicine tastes bitter. Without good medicine, sickness cannot be cured.

But frankly I believe this will again be a futile endeavor. At this age, everything is hard-wired.

I think Sslee wrote this with good intention to the man he respected.

From what i have read, he had lost money in Xingguan, Hengyuan etc but he has not openly blamed anyone. From my observation, he is quite a well to do person, an expatriate engineer, still working. I am cock sure he doesn't need a sen from anyone to compensate his loss. Not everybody is crazy about money anyway, including Sslee.

From my analysis, he wrote this with the hope that the person he respected wake up and stop all those nonsense, more for the preservation of the reputation of the subject. Yes, there are nonsense, period!

This is evidenced from one of his comments here,

Dear Halite,
But expectation on Mr. KYY is equally sky high because of his respectable social status, founder of many companies, philanthropist works, keen and prolific writer on politic, economy, nation, life and investing plus his proclaimed noble intention to teach general public on how to invest and to become successful in investment and life. Thus his conducts had to live up to a certain high standard.]

A PLP person makes you happy, yes, but it is not long lasting, and it will make you lose your senses to do the right thing. In fact, I am just disgusted the way the PLP is carried out. Can't you see that too? Are you blind?

A true person tells you the truth. Good medicine never taste good.

sifu KC welcome to the club. Join us to punt lah. Help to exercise our brain

I do, but a little. Good trading psychology can also make money.

But when I write for the public, I don't encourage, knowing that most will lose money.

tell you what.....
no more extremely low PE sector...after the 2008 crisis , have 10 years to recover ....steel the last of mohicans? various sectors have been pushed up and down already, some gets raped so badly, even years later cannot recover.
After the next results, two things can happen......the steel shares gets whacked up to average PEs...or more likely, it becomes obvious earnings are declining and outlook not good.....justifying both the trading prices and the low PEs.....
kc the professor got the business sense to comment or see it coming?


I am a value investor. When Lionind was 60+, value emerged and I hantam. But when your master came out with the first article blowing water on Lionind when Lionind was RM1.26, I cabut fast fast.

Yes, I saw it coming; how the share price will tank with articles after articles within a week. It is a norm. Didn't you see it?. Then you really have no common sense.

It is nothing to do about business sense. It is just common sense.

So you didn't benefit when Lionind share price went up from 60 sen to RM1.30? He didn't tell you meh? Feel frustrated? Is that the reason you keep on badmouthing Lionind? Not scare on reprimand? No more crumbs already oh!
