Agreed but this type of high level BS resonates with 'Huat Chaiiii' gamblers in this thread. When it comes to this so-called restructuring plan, what exactly changed? Asking for a friend.
bignenen Blablablabla all talks. I could write business initiatives like this when I was in college yonks ago (cgpa 4 flat mind you) . Why don't this joker pump another 40mil in, kasi goreng limit up abit.
py1818 Tks for your daily bulletin & confirmation of trend reversal. ps. Disgruntled Berjaya employees & minority shareholders here is your chance to exit & let others take your tickets.
py1818 * @earlyretirement @sailang_now @bulldog BjCorp Highest price 0.50 Resistant 0.39 Resistant 0.35 Price 0.335 Major support 0.335 Major support 0.31 Support 0.29 Major Support 0.27 Support 0.23
Verdict - Yes. Downtrend reversed, provided price able to stay above major resistant 0.31 and 0.335.
Currently all Berjaya companies has a cross holding ownership structure which needs to be addressed & unwound to attract more institutional holders from current 6%. So expect more trimming of non direct interest shares sales from various VT companies from time to time. As long as the direct interest controlling shares are not sold & tightly held by major shareholders & market can absorb the excess shares there shouldn't be major issues unlike the current sell down of Serba Dinamik.
Excerpt of Transformation Plan by Jalil. Compliance and Governance - addressing the cross-holding ownership structure (current trimming of non direct interest through sale of shares by various non core business VT companies)
If too high level somebody has just simplified the impact of Jalil's Transformation Plan for benefit of everyone...
*BJCORP at 33.5sen*
- Bjcorp just announced its detailed restructuring plan, with key headlines figures such as RM2b divestment within 2 years, RM5b divestment within 5 years, paring 50% of borrowings/debts within 3 years.
- Operationally, Bjcorp has more than 20 types of businesses brands including lottery (Bjtoto), hotels & malls( Four seasons, ritz carlton, Berjaya time square, >10 berjaya brand hotels in Malaysia & overseas), brokerages & insurance(Interpac securities, Saigon bank, Berjaya Sompo), retail & food(Cosway, 7-eleven, starbucks, jollibean, kripy kreme), property development(Bjland), telco (redtone, u-mobile) and education (Berjaya college).
- The operations is too diversified and messy before this as it is not easy to manage such many subsidiaries. This have caused Bjcorp to trade at steep discount of its book value and been generating losses.
- Nevertheless, with Jalil coming into the board, we can see that Bjcorp’s plan is to streamline the whole business model to be more organised and unlock plenty of value within its assets. With the planned divestment of non-core assets by selling off unprofitable businesses, this can clean up the balance sheet and there are good potential to turnaround the business.
- Financially, Berjaya Corp currently has about RM1.2b cash and RM5b debt. Divestment of RM2b assets within 2 years (+40sen/share) and RM5b within 5 years(RM1/share) will largely strengthen the cash position and paring down debts. If everything is in line with the restructuring plan, Bjcorp potentially turn into net cash company within few years after clearing all loss-making operations.
- With the restructuring plan ongoing and Bjcorp turn into profit, this will also unlock the value of other core business which was previously discounted. There are plenty of value in the group’s subsidiaries; such as U-mobile(talks of going IPO), Bjtoto(defensive and churning good profit), 7-eleven, landbanks in Bjland (worth more than RM5-6b estimated) and many others which are yet to be factored in.
- To give a sense, Bjcorp now trading at only about 0.3x book value(a 70% discount to true value). If we strip out Bjcorp’s stake in Bjland and Bjtoto, its only 0.2x book value (a 80% discount). The conglomerate’s NTA is at RM1.18(excluding accretion from unlocking various busineses’ value), while current share price only 33sen. This means that there is a potential >400% share price upside if everything goes well for them.
- From TA perspective, Bjcorp attempts to rally from recent selldown(with low volume). It breakout and stay above near-term resistance of 32.5sen which is deemed healthy. Subsequent resistances are at 38.5sen and 46.5sen respectively.

The announcement is in line with market expectation but has little impact beyond investors anticipation. Merely a streamlining of the group structure with core and non core entities in specific which is seen as not far from the current biz model except to place the group biz in a proper and direct manner without duplication. Yet the plan needs another mid to long term period to fully materialise which seems quite far fetched moreover with market uncertainties. The announcement still lacks a lot of details which will be announced only somewhere in July. Hence it's very sketchy and premature to comment on the Co till more info is avaliable. Should be neutral bias for now before more pertinent details are made avaliable.
wonder how they going to reduce debts? Issuing debts now actually is better option with current low yield. Lock in 10-20 years funding cost, isnt it a better option, unless its selling non-core which is a good move.
As said announcement was sketchy lacking in material contents. Stock will soften lower in correction mode to cover any lower gaps and weaknesses before any concrete developments.
