Sembcorp industries is pretty much a walking dead.
Temasek is just hoping that SCI can keep on walking despite being dead so that they do not need to cough out money for a rights issue.
Now that SMM is heading higher, the punter that had been pusher SCI higher to convince shareholders to let go of their free SMM can stop playing the game.
SCI is likely to head back to $1 sooner rather than later.
There is no way SCI can come out of the $10 billion debt black hole with all its limbs intact.
So,  sell SCI to buy SMM  is the smart move
As usual, do your own DYODD.

Slightly different.
SCI' s CFO resigned and balak kampong
SMM' s CFO was promoted to CRO and reports directly to CEO. Formerly he reports to GFD who reports to CEO. So kind of like a promotion.

Hey Naoshingo, are you commenting in the wrong thread.
In any case, CFO resigning is usually bad news. Sembcorp industries is going to be a zombie company for years with about $10billion of debt overhang. Total debt/ equity about 250%
In contrast, Sembmarine' s Total debt/ equity is about 90%. Go figure.
Not too late to sell Sembcorp industries to buy Sembmarine.

And out of the hopeful $500M earnings, $100M is paid out as dividends. $100M / 12,000,000,000 = $0.00833 per share.
This gives a dividend yield of 4.9 % over today' s price of $0.17. And with capital appreciation of $0.33 too!
... must be wishful thinking or incorrect calculation... otherwise, merger or not... it does not matter...

Just curious...
If earnings is $500M going forward, and nbr of shares is 12,000M, then EPS is $500M / 12,000M which is $0.0417.
At price per share of $0.50, P/E = 0.50 / $0.417 = 12
What' s wrong in my calculation?

My own opinion: Keppel Corp news is due. If today not out, latest shld be out by next week. If involves SCM and benefits SCM, we will make some money from the share price recovery. All the best to everyone vested. DYODD. Make your own judgement and buying decision. Thanks.

In this forums, everyone here has his or her own predictions
or assumptions. Nobody's is right or wrong...it's healthy to share
informations, ideas and opinions...
Better may be right or wrong for the predictions
BUT it is up to individuals to believe in.
This is human psychology especially if you are holding
that particular stocks, including me...

Yes, progress payment. However, there would usually be some completion bonus of sort.
For a project size of USD2.25 billion, the additional cash inflow at/ near completion could easily amount to a few hundred millions. Also, less working capital tied up in ongoing projects.
Accelerated revenue recognition towards the end of the project would add to profit.
So if Sembmarine wants, they can easily reverse all the reported loss in 2020 by recognising more revenue from these key projects.
However, unlikely to do so as Temasek needs SMM to report a loss to push through the merger.

Can correct me if I' m wrong. Ain' t this kind of project paid in batches? So towards the end of the project. Probably Sembmarine already received 60-70 % of the money?

Sembmarine has no problem getting new projects as they are both technologically and cost competitive.
However, the future profitability of SMM lies in making correct financial decisions and taking the right risks.
Keppel O& M used to be the global leader a decade ago. But a series of defaults from custoimers like Alwico drilling and Borr drilling and legal woes has weakened their financial position substantially.
Also, clients like Transocean might be proposing to Sembmarine to take up equity stake in the 2 drillships to share in the USD1mil a day rental income.
When Sembmarine absorb Keppel O& M, they would have to inherit all their problems. So I guess CEO Wong needs someone to help him assess all the different financial risks.
