KNM 0.00% RM0.745 - KNM Group Bhd has proposed a one-for-five renounceable rights issue of up to 430.4m new shares, together with free warrants on the basis of one warrant for every two rights shares subscribed, to raise between RM233-RM310m. The company said assuming an indicative issue price of 72 sen per rights share, the proposed rights issue is expected to raise gross proceeds of up to about RM233m-RM310m under the minimum scenario and maximum scenario respectively.

 

 

5) YINSON

Announce that Addax Petroleum Development (Nigeria) Limited has extended its contract for the charter of  its 100% owned FPSO Knock Adoon with Adoon Pte Ltd by one year with effect from 17 October 2014. The Extension Contract is valued at approximately USD39.0 million.

The original contract for the FPSO was awarded on 17 October 2006, for a firm eight year period with option to renew up to eight years and the said original contract has expired on 16 October 2014. Both parties have now agreed to extend the term of the said original contract by one year to 16 October 2015. FPSO Knock Adoon was built in 1985 and has been operating on the Antan field in Nigeria throughout the contract period.


+ve  once again demonstrating Yinson's ability to continue to secure charters for its assets despite challenging conditions and we understand the charter rate is higher than its original firm period. Recent weakness in the market has brought its valuation down to more reasonable levels (19x PE fwd yr) given that it is the 6th largest FPSO/FSO fleet owner with likely new contract awards in the near future. Accumulate with strong support seen around the RM2.45 levels.

 

6) Market - Choppy trading likely to persist as global volatility continues to weigh on investors confidence. Immediate strong upside resistance at 1820pts on the KLCI with supoort 1780pts.
