PBA giving free 10,000 liters water to every household!

Posted by hng33 > 3 weeks ago | Report Abuse

THE Penang Water Supply Corporation (PBAPP) appears to have caved in to pressure and has offered rebates to provide relief to consumers over the 182 percent hike in water rates early this year

In a statement, the state executive councillor, who oversees infrastructure, Zairil Khir Johari said that the first 10,000 litres of water used by every household in Penang from July to December will be free of charge.

It is part of efforts to lighten the impact of increased water tariffs that began earlier this year, Zairil, the Tanjung Bungah assemblyman, said.

He also declared that the existing RM20 monthly rebate for large households comprising eight people or more with a maximum monthly income of RM2,250 will be extended to households with an income of up to RM5,000

As at May 2024, there are about 597,000 registered domestic water consumers in
Penang. The projected impact on PBAPP’s revenue in the period from 1.7.2024 –
31.12.2024 will be about RM11 million.

Good to buy on price weakness.

RM 11 million may be alot, but only applies to consumer households.

household usage should be less than 40%, the rest is industrial and agriculture sector.
Oversold but this stock is lousy...

Posted by raymondroy > 3 weeks ago | Report Abuse

Last qtr profit was only RM14m so if free water impact is RM11m.... covering 6 mths so thats RM1.8m a mth..... so profit will reduce to 14-1.8=12.2m .... assuming rate change will be absorbed into this free water scheme covering initial mths :-(

Posted by goldenhope > 3 weeks ago | Report Abuse

RM14 mil still does not fully reflect the hike in water tariff.

Posted by ValueInvestor888 > 3 weeks ago | Report Abuse

yes not reflect yet. current price is undervalued as mkt does not like subsidy and other argument surrounding water by politicians. Household consumption is less than 40%. Other sectors still subject to increase esp industry sectors.
