KLCI King had lumped up the PDP fees of LRT3 of RM270 which is almost net income , with the Project cost of RM494 and RM642 where GK may earn only 9% Confusion !!
I think the author is correct. PDP stands for Project Delivery Partner. They are more like a project management & earning the fees to manage the projects. The project value belonged to the appointed contractors not the PDP entity.
The fees for the PDP is not equal to net income. It need to less the management teams ( office + site consultant team ) overhead, the printing cost for tender evaluation & award, utility for operation & etc. The highest cost for the PDP entity is actually the overhead of the management team / human resources. Imagine each station you have 1 team from Arch, C&S , M&E, QS, Landscape, ID, Planner, etc.
6% for this size I think is fair, this is not normal building but infrastructure. They need to handle all level of counterparts. In fact, there are provision in PDP which stated that any delay or cost overrun. PDP need to dapao themselves without any cost incur to government. PDP entity have to borne all the cost overrun & liable for the late delivery.
why 6% is fair ? Because as PDP, they are not only reviewing the design, they need to do coordination across the trades.
For normal residential building . The P&A rate for coordination normally range around 2.5% to 3%. For a more complex building like mall, the P&A will go up to 3.5% to 4%. For healthcare, it will reached 4.5%. It all depends on the degree of difficulty of the coordination. The P&A scope in building contract is almost identical to the PDP role function in railway jobs.
Hence, for railways with multiple disciplines & multiple stations, 6% is a fair rate.
Based on annual report, the order book reflect the RM4.5 bil as the PDP 6% fee is based on project progress billing. Thus, GKENT include it into its order book.
However, you're right that this figure inflated the actual order book value needed to be delivered by GKENT.
Good eye! Hopefully, IB and analyst will highlight this clearly in their future analysis.
Thank you, Mr Sami, your comment make sense to me. Learn something today.

Are you kidding? Do you know what are you talking? I don't need to go anywhere but just to point out how contradict you are in your comment。
Not only you don't know what is written in the newspaper: "The PDP for the LRT3 project will earn a management fee of 6%"
You try to said apple is actually orange:
1st, you mention what is in 5.6bil order book Then you said construction revenue 80% meter supply 20%
Can you justify or explain your own comment?
---------------below----------------------- Nikmon @KLCI King, the first assumption made by you are totally wrong, so eventually the rest of the article can be ignore...lol...wrong lah
the 5.6 billion order book inclusive of 1. LRT extension 2. Hospital construction 3. LRT 3 4. Provision of water meter to Hong Kong, Singapore 5. water construction 6. MRT2
construction revenue around 80% and meter supply around 20%
the next will be share bonus and final dividend.... 01/06/2018 23:51
The owner also said very clearly PDP will earn a management fee only, still so many people get cheated by the GKent Chairman, Bankers, GKent's AR.....blah blah
haha, so funny, good that many got confused, if not, how to make money in stock market?
Totally misleading, please check analyst report on gamuda, they were the pdp of mrt1 and 2, orderbook means orderbook, not fees of orderbook, dont find it meaningful to even post this blog
Your level of intelligence can be seen from your comment, if you think I am wrong, so be it. It is up to you to see whatever you want to see.
If you stand firm to say it is order book, then order book loh. I am done with all my explanation & opinion, GKent is gone case anyway.
Primeinvestor Totally misleading, please check analyst report on gamuda, they were the pdp of mrt1 and 2, orderbook means orderbook, not fees of orderbook, dont find it meaningful to even post this blog 02/06/2018 02:33
It is obviously your first time in looking at construction stock. Please download analyst reports for Gamuda here, http://gamuda.com.my/analyst-reports/
looks like you have alot to learn about order book classification, but it does not matter, i am not promoting gkent, i am only disgusted by your misleading blog
HSR order book for Gamuda consortium is RM20b, not 6% of RM20b, or you could refer to ytl's news and reports

please call up analysts and tell them your intelligence is higher than them and ask them to resign because you deserves to be the most intelligent order book estimator, LOL, what a rubbish article, you are lucky because you can be sued for defamation for your sub par intel
Tan Sri KH Tan and hos family should use his personal money to buy back the shates if he think the value of the shates still worth 3 times of the current price closed 1/6. Tan Sri has no balls because he worry margin call if personal money use. That clearly shown non of the major shareholders got the courage to use their personal money to buy back. If so confident the share price will go up, why not earn easy money to your own bank account rather than give back the gain to the company! Think rationally before investing....
from:635789 Let examine the track record of this company why the share price plunged 75% from year high of RM4.52 to year low of 1.12. This company had been accumulating profits every quarter since 31.10.2003 with unbroken profits for 15 years. Latest audited report as at 31.1.2018 had shown that it had accumulated profit of RM265m, cash of RM511m and borrowing of RM56m. This is a solid listed company with very good track records and is competitive to win big projects for open tendering. It is hard to believe the share price will be falling forever and in fact is a Good time to accumulate buying after plunging 75%.
PDP contract is very simple. MRCBGKJV appoint contractors approved by Prasarana. Say they cost 9bn, MRCBGKJV get all their costs reimbursed and the payments to the contractors plus a fee of 6%.
The 6% is a lot but it is not risk free 6% as they have to manage those contracts to finish on time and on budget subject to usual Variations etc. They are at risk on this project.
Tan Sri Tan Kay Hock cannot book the 4.5bn as revenue as it is a 50/50JV, accounting rules apply.
He is trying to tell the market as clearly as he can that they have a much higher revenue than the published accounts suggest at first glance, this is not as small a company as it may look.
If this carries on the EBIT will overtake the revenue.
Leave the guy alone, he is very successful and has managed GK well for many years, building it year by year AND he has NO DEBT in GK. If you invest by politics rather than fundamentals then note he has never been a contributor to BN and is friendly to everyone.
with RM1 cash per share a price of 1.20 seems very cheap. Up to you, if you believe everyone successful in Malaysia is a 1MDB thief and will shortly be in jail because Tun Mahathir is reformasi then take all your money out. If you want to make money in the market in the next year you have to be in the market.
johnhuat88, you are confusing yourself. The 6% has no real costs, the costs are reimbursed to GK seperately. MRCBGKJV are spending about 9bn, they get paid back 9bn plus 6%. The 6% is not cost. If all rail stops tomorrow (and GK get compensated by Tun) GK still has hospitals and a leading regional water meter business and NO DEBT. Value the company on just the water meters and it is undervalued at 1.20. Up to you lah
May have better future, GK were leading siemens in JV to build HSR Assets and could have won but needed to put up a lot of equity in PPP vehicle, maybe bonds etc. Without HSR they will have a cash pile to invest in less capital intensive projects.
erkongseng, your talk is always sweet, regardless what is happening to GKent.
Posted by erkongseng > Jun 4, 2018 07:54 AM | Report Abuse 早前投行像HLBG,RHB,KENANGA有推荐買入,目标价都过3元,你想还会继续下跌吗?主要项目LRT3 于2020年8月完工,净利保证还有2年,也就是2019.2020财政年净利仍然美丽,你想股价都会停留在2元内吗?
i think it would be easier if you u guys imagine u are the Gkent company, or mrcb or gamuda, or what ever la. you are PDP and you got management fee, clear about that.
but, who will fork out cash/loan to buy materials, equipment, resources, etc to built the project? is t Prasarana or PDP??. for me la PDP is aka Sub-contractor ler..tukar nama to make it catchy..huhu. and for sub-con, everybody should know their function.
and one more thing, don get confuse with China man style doing business.. China bank, sub-con china man, pay contractor direct, even progress work only few percent, money already distributed in advanced. Like that, $2 company can stat doing business.
with management fee 6% from the total amount, it will be fixed upon hand over the finished project. But PDP aka sub-con company still can still make additional profit from running the show on behalf Prasarana (so Prasarana guy can just tidur and submit report to PM !). If the total cost estimated 4.5 billion, due to good management, able to get cheap material, cost reduction, etc..company can get 5-10 % profit lagi.
all confuse coz they use catchy word PDP and management fee...when in fact they should just mention that..prasarana sub-con the project.
