In general, PN17 companies normally have some financial difficulties. As such, investors get quite worried when some of the shares they hold are for PN17 companies. They usually face a dilemma of whether to cut losses or hope for a rebound for such shares.
It is said of the stock market that “what goes up will come down, but what goes down may not go up”.
Rational investors admit their mistakes, cut theirs losses they have to bear.
Unfortunately, most investors believe that the stock prices will recover one day. They will only cut losses when the companies are about to be delisted!
Now the Singapore-listed Ezra Holdings Ltd, which holds a 22.5% stake in Perisai, voluntarily filed for bankruptcy in the United States (US) under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code. On 2nd March 2018, the US Bankruptcy has approved their application.
With Ezra going bust, the emphasis is now on Perisai as its associate company in the midst of financial distress, it is important to have strong backing from its stakeholders. But Ezra’s bankruptcy could deliver a damning effect on Perisai as the latter struggles to return to the black.
During oil crisis, companies with good planning manage to avoid the adverse impact from the crisis whereas some companies just cannot escape from the financial difficulties.
Lately, we notice that the owners of some companies are getting less committed to their businesses.
They give up their businesses quite easily after encountering some financial distress. If they discover that the loans amount is higher than the value of their assets and they do not foresee any prospects in their current businesses, they give up the businesses and let the companies fall into PN17 and later go bankrupt.
According to the Cockroach Theory, whenever a company announces some bad news to the public, like default in loans repayments, some accounting issues or delay in releasing their financial results, there may be more bad news that have yet to be revealed.
This is because whenever we see one cockroach in our cabinet, there tends to be many more cockroaches hiding at the back of that cabinet.
Even though some companies will try their best to regularise their businesses, unfortunately, not all their owners have the commitment to pull these companies out from PN17.
Hence, we should cut our losses and never average down our purchase prices on these companies!
Even if we are very excited about these companies, we should wait until they successfully revive their businesses and are no longer considered PN17 companies.
