I used to own this stock. I got out with small profit. I have faith in the management. I'm on lookout for re-investing when the price is "right". As mentioned, they made wrong bets. Its not end of the world, its part and parcel of investment. They will weather through the storm. They are big enough. I just think there should be more impairment for the wrong bets they made in Petra and Alam. I will wait for the coming quarter result. Numbers don't lie.
Indeed, numbers don't lie. Their balance sheet is not as strong as before. Go look at the 5 years balance sheets. Cash is depleting and short term loans are increasing. Go make your own evaluation.
They are using cash reserve to support the share price. I'll be little surprise if they declare dividend this end February. They might to support the share price.

Epf is very reputable veteran in stock market, they r not stupid if they r selling some stocks....sure has their solid reason to believe crude oil will be game over in future rather than u PPL only based on one kind feeling of past history rebound story.
As of late, EPF has been disposing lots of their shares. However, WASEONG has been buying back its shares around the 0.80 range. Therefore, there should be some support. Although it is an O&G counter, the Risk : Reward ratio is decent. Cut Loss if it breaks its low of 0.79.
TP 0.905 / 1.00 IF you are trading O&G counters, be sure to constantly monitor live oil prices.
Trade at your own risk GreenTrade$ WILL NOT be held responsible for any losses or decisions made Rebecca Lye and Jackson Lam like this.
UNLESS THERE IS SPECULATION, IT IS NO WAY WAH SEONG'S SHARE PRICE CAN GO UP UNDER CURRENT LOW BRENT CRUDE OIL PRICE AND THIS SCENARIO WILL LAST FOR LONG TIME AT LEAST ONE TO TWO YEARS BEFORE THE DEMAND OF OIL IS HIGH THAN SUPPLY
Lets see how bad their Q4 would be. They definitely will only release tomorrow friday after closing time. I predict big loss just like other O&G counters. Maybe no dividend too since they have spend their cash to support the share price. Any surprise would be rebound.
Wah Seong’s full year FY15 revenue recorded RM1.8bn (-24.6% YoY), affected by current market conditions plaguing the O&G sector thus seeing a lack of projects available. This lack of projects is largely from deferring capex activities. Net profit fell to RM9.5m (-92.5% YoY). Stripping off the impairment on plant & equipment (compressors) of RM25.3m and tax adjustments of RM17.3m, the Group’s core net profit for FY15 is RM52.1m (-58.5% YoY) exceeding our estimates. We retain our Neutral recommendation on Wah Seong, but with a lowered TP of RM0.90 pegged to 8x PE (previous 10x) and FY16F EPS of 11.2sen despite the better core results. Our concern is on its shrinking orderbook and difficulty in contract replenishment amidst this challenging period. We maintain that Wah Seong’s performance has been affected by the oil price sentiment and not due to its execution capabilities, we therefore believe the gradual recovery of oil prices will increase market activities would see the Group being a beneficiary.
Shrinking orderbook. Wah Seong’s current orderbook stands at RM894m (RM974m – September 2015),comprising of 54% O&G contracts, 29% renewable energy and 17% industrial trading and services. The Group has a RM6.7bn tenderbook constituting RM5.7bn of O&G projects, however the timeline of the awards going forward cannot be determined and would likely be delayed hence a continued drag on performance could be expected for the year. Contract replenishment for FY15 includes a c.USD39.5m (c.RM167.2m) contract for the full scope of coating work for the Johan Sverdrup Export Pipeline Project (JoSEPP) by Statoil ASA Norway. Going forward the Group has identified job tenders in various regions such as North America, Latin America, Europe and Africa. Neutral. We have lowered our TP to RM0.99 pegged to 8x PE (previous 10x) and FY16F EPS of 11.2sen despite the better core results. Our revision in PE multiple is determined by the contract replenishment risks. Source: PublicInvest Research - 1 Mar 2016
they are holding million of stocks.....EPF is shorting...both way they make money.....up or down....I guess......I am not surprise if the price will suddenly shoot up to 1.56....NTA.....
PETALING JAYA: Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) via subsidiary Pacific NorthWest LNG (PNW LNG) is proactively taking steps to mature the US$36bil (RM147bil) Pacific NorthWest liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in Canada towards its final investment decision, the national oil company said in a statement.
This was in response to recent press reports which said that Petronas was close to pulling out of the project, following frustrations with the stance of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s climate-change priorities and the introduction of new uncertainties for the project.
The new federal Liberal government in Canada is toughening up environmental reviews of major energy projects as it strives to meet international commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
A Canadian newspaper had quoted sources as saying that Petronas was threatening to walk away if it didn’t get federal approval by March 31.
“The Canadian environmental impact assessment process for the PNW LNG project is still ongoing, following which a final report will be produced by the relevant agency to be submitted to the Canadian government for approval,” Petronas said in the statement.
“Petronas, together with the project shareholders, will review the said final report and evaluate conditions attached to the report to further determine their impact on the overall cost structure and schedule of the project,” it said.
“The outcome, reviewed together with the LNG market outlook and overall project commerciality, will be used to develop the proposal for an investment decision to be considered by the PNW LNG shareholders,” it said.
Petronas added that it would update with more information as and when necessary.
Petronas and its partners are seeking to build an LNG terminal on the Lax Kw’alaams territory on Lelu Island as part of the proposed Pacific NorthWest LNG project, in which Petronas has a 62% interest.
So far, Petronas has spent about US$12bil (RM49.2bil) on this project.
It has encountered multiple obstacles, including aboriginal and environmental movement opposition.
“If Petronas were to walk away now, it would lose an investment of about US$12bil. Is Petronas willing to bite the bullet?” asked one oil and gas (O&G) analyst.
Another analyst said if Petronas were to walk away now, it would also be very difficult to find a buyer for the asset at this stage.
“I think it is important that Petronas makes a business decision on this project soon,” added the O&G analyst.
Last month, this project had received a mostly favourable assessment from the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency.
The proposed facility will comprise an initial development of two LNG trains of about six million tonnes per annum (MTPA) each, and a subsequent development of a third train of six MTPA. It will liquefy and export natural gas produced by Progress Energy Canada in north-eastern British Columbia.
It was also given the green light by the British Columbia government in November 2014, and received conditional corporate support – or an FID – from Petronas and its partners in June of last year.
To recap, Petronas bought Canada’s Progress Energy Resources in 2012 in a deal worth US$5bil that gave it shale gas properties in north-eastern British Columbia.
Since then, Petronas has sold equity interets in the company and its LNG assets to four partners, namely Japan Petroleum Exploration Co Ltd (10%), Petroleum Brunei (3%), Indian Oil Corp Ltd (10%), and China Petrochemical Corp (15%).
Earlier this month, Petronas group chief executive officer Datuk Wan Zulkiflee Wan Ariffin had acknowledged that Petronas was facing cashflow problems due to the prevailing low oil price environment, which necessitated its RM50bil cut in capital expenditure and operating expenditure from this year up until 2020.
Between RM15bil and RM20bil worth of expenditure will be cut from the oil giant’s budget for this year alone, the bulk of which is likely to come from the upstream segment.
However, he reiterated that Petronas was committed to paying out RM16bil in dividends to the Government from its operations last year as previously announced.
calvintaneng...agreed.....market over reacted on this counter....It will go back to its fair value 1.18 to 1.56.....probably sooner than we expected...I guess...

we have to understand more about their business. Their net debt for 2014 stood at 770mil which is deemed high. Yes they still have recuring income from IGBreit 25.6mil... its just too small...going forward are there able to sustain their business and are they able to servicing their debts? all O&G project has stopped. investor dump their shares with some solid reasons which we may not know. ya maybe now the price is low.. low doesnt mean will rebound... it could be remain stagnant at current level. or it may go down further. chances of going down/stagnant is > than going up at least for now.
