The equity has grown by just RM45m from RM910m to RM970m, or just a CAGR of 1.2%
Its total short and long-term interest-bearing debts has increased by 132% from RM537m in 2014 to RM1248m in 2018, in just 4 years. Yes, RM1.25 billion, a huge number. The increased in the short-term debt of about 300% is particularly a red flag to watch.
I know....people like u will stop there , mind boggling.....
but what caused it and no solutions meh?
lesser companies went burst already from the collapse in oil market 2014 - 2016......This company wrote off $ 100 million investments in OG and some controversies with 2 tug boats ...Oil market is recovering Middle East is recovering, the tug boat issues are being solved.....so how?
Posted by qqq3 > Apr 20, 2019 7:40 PM | Report Abuse next report card, Sendai collects $ 250 million from trade receivables......then u how? U eat your words?
Exactly a year ago, Sendai tested the first lift boat done for its major shareholder, a related party transaction.
Just wonder, has that been paid to Sendai, for a job completed a year ago?
If you are a shareholder of Eversendai, you should question the Chairman of Audit Committee what has he done about the outstanding payment. The liftboat was handed over to client about a year ago and remaining payment has yet to be received ? The audit committee just closes one eye? Eversendai is bearing the hefty interest cost due to late settlement by the client, which happens to be Eversendai's founder, Tan Sri AK Nathan
I still remember Sifu said in your one of the articles saying , when shares dropped to very2 low, a not so good comp can be a good buy loh if I am not mistaken.

That is true. It could be true for Benalec too.
But don't forget of what I caution about, evaluate if the drop of share price is due to some temporary reasons, or is it due to structural change, or a poor and dishonest management.
Posted by andychay6124 > Apr 20, 2019 5:49 PM | Report Abuse Jaks going to do private placement
If you know and care to read its balance sheet, you know it has to do the PP. No two ways about it.
Similarly for Sendai, with the major shareholder holding 70% of the shares, and the precarious cash flows and balance sheet, there is no two ways about it too.

Well, at least I could name two stocks, and what a coincidence, they were both heavily promoted by you shouting margin and sailang!
Why don't you name some and from when to when that they double in price in a few months.
Come on, don't just quack quack quack. Show some examples!

Posted by 3iii > Apr 21, 2019 11:14 PM | Report Abuse MARKETS Issuing more shares good for shareholders Koon Yew Yin Eversendai’s private placement is different from other usual private placements
Wonderful private placement!
With the PP at RM1.00 even during the good time at end of 2017, the share price went straight down and never recover.
It lost half its value in about a year from RM1.00 to just 50 sen now.

What else can I say? The ignorant can only talk about the share price and how many shares were transacted. they know nothing about the value.
