I don't think so. I think they missed the boat and fared worst than Tropicana. Their price was on par and they went up to 1.2x a few times while tropicana was stagnant at 1.0x. Then both drop and Trops recovered slightly faster while Encorp still much below
I think they should sell the Encorp Mall, and their concession assets, and pay off the sukuk. Then, they can channel balance monies to their Bukit Katil project. I suspect that there will be one or 2 affordable housing projects awarded to them before GE.
Could Encorp eat up a pie for Bandar Malaysia project? The gov could enlist few local player teaming up with China big player.... Anytime Encorp can limit up in BM rumors.
Was interested in this stock after it posted its second profitable quarter for FY18.
However, after further study, the company actually recorded losses in both the 1Q18 and 2Q18 . The reason for the positive result in these 2 quarters are mainly due to the reversal of provision for liquidated damages.
The original provision was made due to delays in some of their projects in particular the Marina Puteri Harbour development. Marina Puteri Harbour was supposed to be completed in 2015 but the company had only managed to complete it back in 1Q18.
Another issue of concern is the cash reserve. As of 2Q18 the company has a cash and liquid investment reserve of RM167mil. However, the liabilities to be settled in the next 12 months amount to RM430mil. Debt to be paid in the next 12 months amounts to 110mil with a payment of RM72mil of the Sukuk Murabahah to be made by Nov 2018.
