Seems to me the management have no intention to bring up the price...
If they are focusing on improving the business, then I'm glad. If they've given up on the business... Then it's time for us investor to move on as well.
Sabar taiko2 sekalian, tunggu keputusan keluar akhir bulan ini baru tengok dapat main tak. Buat masa sekarang ini, biarlah kami orang ikan bilis kumpul sikit2 dulu
yang keluar duit beli saham ini pun bukan kerana duit banyak entah nak simpan kat mana. new shareholder/merging (rumours + pasal asiabio tu lah), lower oil price/operational costs (mathematical facts), business turning good (from last Q report + sailing schedule)......macam2 kebarangkalian la mungkin mereka nampak sesuatu yang orang lain tak nampak
This counter exit from container shipping business and maximising their break bulk business. The liner business will cease operation fye 30th Sept. 2015.
Hubline to exit loss making container shipping business
KUALA LUMPUR: Hubline Bhd is exiting the container shipping business industry following losses incurred by the division over the last few years while it also does not see an immediate turnaround.
The company said on Wednesday a continued participation in the sector would eventually “harm” its profitable operations of the break bulk division.
Hubline said it had to reassess the group’s financial and operational strategies due to the losses incurred by the division over the last few years.
It said the board had done a detailed deliberation and review of all relevant factors, and have decided to exit from the container shipping business industry and therefore will be discontinuing the group’s container shipping operations.
Explaining the rationale for stopping these operations, it said the container liner industry had long been suffering since the economic crisis and overcapacity in the market is still evident.
“The global liner industry is struggling with the depressed freight rates to meet operating costs. The global trade patterns are fast changing which is challenging to our operating model.
“Consequently, competition for cargo is still very fierce and operators are struggling to stay profitable with the depressed freight rate environment,” it said.
Hubline said the board has a duty to protect the shareholder’s investment in the group, and concluded this was the right time to sever the container shipping arm of the group, and instead focus the group’s time and resources to what will maximise shareholder return.
“The group’s break bulk division has the potential to develop and grow without being challenged by the pressures of subsidising the container shipping division,” it said.
It added the exit process would involve withdrawal from various trade routes, termination of related service and operational contracts, as well as the disposal of container shipping related assets.
Hubline anticipates the liner business will cease its operations by the current financial year ending Sept 30, 2015. The move would also impact various subsidiaries and agencies related to the liner business.
“The exit will have a material effect on the financial results of the group for the financial year ending Sept 30, 2015, as impairments and losses will be crystallised to terminate the drain to the group’s resources.
“The container shipping division, in the last four years, has contributed an average of 79% to the group’s overall revenue, and an average of -134% of profit before tax, hence an overall negative impact to the group’s overall net result,” it said.
Hubline said the group’s main activity would remain as shipping, however, the focus will shift towards break bulk shipping.
Break bulk shipping is a viable and sustainable division with good prospects of further growth.
Subject to market conditions during the exit process and the company’s successful execution of its exit plans, the estimated one-off costs to the income statement are expected to be approximately RM350mil for FY ending Sept 30, 2015.
“However, over the long term, as the group concentrates on its profitable break bulk division, the board anticipates a positive impact to the group’s earnings,” it said.
Hubline said the board has a duty to protect the shareholder’s investment in the group, and concluded this was the right time to sever the container shipping arm of the group, and instead focus the group’s time and resources to what will maximise shareholder return.
What i see is ceasing and selling the unprofitable container business. This is cutting loss.Then keeps the profitable business. There is more reason to buy the share than sell. The question is when do you buy? Now? End of september? There is bound to be cash flow from the selling. Not a bad thing after all.
RobbinBuffet is correct they still in shipping business it just that they cut unprofitable business. Ring a bell MISC ? The also having the same problem and the company taking bold decision by cutting unprofitable business and maintain the profitable one.
Technically, this counter will fall under PN17....doubt whether it will go down the drain? There are so many counters under PN17 yet there are a lot of people making money. Be positive guys,,,..requote..`its not a death sentence'.
There's so many ways for a listed company to get funding to repay the loans or to increase their capitalisation. Depending on how the management chooses their path.
Hubline been cutting losses, so this is considered a move in the recovery process, therefore, the result can only be seen in 2-3 years time. More patience is needed for us investors to see it's glory once again.
