like I said before, this counter is really a test of patience. short term can look at earnings, long term cashflow. but if Puncak is willing to pay a fair price, I'm more than happy to sell
yup, with contract RM 600m, Triplc can standalone, but, if Puncak wanna to acquire, it must pay attractive premium. Its win-win to both triplc and puncak shareholder
@Up_down Make sense. Probably Rozali wants the everything to be in place for the Triplc Medical before selling to Puncak to fetch a higher price. The issuance of Sukuk from Triplc Medical may be one of the few outstanding items to be closed. If there is anything left open, there may be a discount in valuation due to risk. Or it could be that Puncak demand the project to be in a phase where they will not suffer from any risk before taking over. Look at the deal between EPF and EKOVEST. EPF added in clauses to protect the return. It is almost like a profit guarantee. The fact that the deal was delayed for 2 times but never cancelled suggests that we should see a completion of the deal, just not sure when.
initially I thought Puncak wants to acquire because of synergy. Puncak has excess cash, Triplc need cash for construction. if Puncak acquired Triplc earlier and use its cashpile to finance the project, they would have been able to save the sukuk interest. but seems like the cash is going to be used for planting cost for oil palm. anyway good luck for all those still holding, hopefully the down period is now over
Chonghai. You have quoted a good example. The price of Triplc won't be lower than NTA 2.62 anymore once the project started.

under the lodge and launch framework, Triplc will issue the sukuk within 60 biz days. so maybe we might see some earnings recognition by the May 2017 quarter. My estimate for FY17 EPS is only around 8-9c but FY18 will accelerate to 40c and FY19 and FY20 above 70c. but for disposal scenario, I still prefer to value based on DCF because that's the most likely method to be used
Triplc still holding the land. But triplc have limited free cash to do property development, as triplc cash need to keep at certain level to meet bond repayment obligation. If Puncak can acquire triplc assets, it will unleash land value.
i'm expecting earliest construction is early next year to coincide with the financing they will get from the sukuk. so Feb 2017 quarter may be too early, expect contribution to really start to show in May 2017 quarter. soon but not too soon. before that maybe the Puncak deal would have been finalised
It doesn't matter even the project starting construction 6 months later. Can't sleep well if the project is hanging there without any news or the government set it aside. Gunung's concession contract is a good example.
David. Choosing Puncak is very comfortable....sitting on the piggy bank 2.5 and hope for bumper dividends or re-rating. Triplc...oh nope...plenty of debt on the surface so it is more risky....

I really don't understand why last time people choose puncak but not triplc ?! They should choose triplc.
Don't make me laugh, puncak now every quarters making losses big and bigger. Got cash got asset so what ? Wait for big shareholder show his mercy to reward minor shareholders ?
At least I wouldn't feel any comfortable see if the company I bought always show loss result. Now not the good time to have puncak. Indeed now is the bad time to hold puncak.
puncak has huge cashpile after water asset sale, however market doesn't think that they are going to spend it wisely, which on hindsight may be true. Triplc was a complicated concession biz, not many people would have paid attention to it. I also only noticed it after the first HOA
The deal is getting nearer. Rozali could be busy snapping up shares of Puncak at cheap cheap price to ensure his proxies are sufficient to vote go for Triplc. Puncak wants business and Rozali needs to cash out...win win situation.
