UMW Oil & Gas Corp Bhd Target price: RM4.82 UNDER REVIEW TA SECURITIES (May 20): UMW Oil & Gas Corp’s (UMW-OG) core net profit of RM55 million for 1QFY14 was within our and consensus’ expectations, accounting for 20% of full-year forecasts.
Q-o-q, it was a decent set of results, although the bottom line was dragged by lower utilisation at the Hydraulic Workover Unit segment as GAIT V was not chartered out, lower commission income from agency sales and UMW-OG had recognised mobilisation fees for Naga 2 in 4QFY13.
We understand that UMW-OG is in the process of negotiating for new contracts for Naga 3, Naga 5, Naga 6 and Naga 7. We forecast that full-year contribution from these new contracts may boost FY15 earnings by 50%, far exceeding FY14’s solid growth of 18%. Results for the upcoming quarters are expected to improve on the back of the maiden contribution from Naga 5, which began its contract with Nido Petroleum Philippines in May 2014; deployment of newbuild rig Naga 6 in September 2014; and contribution from GAIT 3, which began a 2+1 year contract with Petronas Carigali in March 2014.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
