Great work teoct. I love reading your articles.

I would like to share a bit of my thoughts.

I think there is no need to put much attention into the cost of materials and manpower. You can find that the inventory level in the balance sheet is minimal at around 6-7m only. Manpower will not be the determining factor for the volatility of the profits as well because as you mentioned, there is ample supply of manpower in the current market. The cost of manpower will be stable. Furthermore, as the manpower is paid based on daily rates, the will be no cost to Dayang when there is no job.

What determines the profitability of Dayang is their work load. When there is low work load, the utilisation of Perdana's vessel will take a hit as the jobs done by Dayang requires support from the vessels. If you look into Perdana's income statement, you will realise what I mean.

The most important thing for Dayang now is their work load and Perdana vessels' utilisation and charter rate which is difficult to predict.

Keep up the good work!
