I agreed that this is quite a good stock, but we still have to do some home work.
If netlink is writing off that 15.2 mil, your next dpu distribution might reduce by 1 cts and half year disTribution for netlink is about 2.5cts.

Don't need to talk much. No $1.20 no sell. This is best stock so far. Unbreakable. Real support. Real buy. Real business. No bbs around to play with. Price is well support. No buy no cry later. Huat Ah. Another 20lot in. Total 45lot. Good luck

Not trying to talk down this stock, but i read this part and confused about capitalised and then write off terms.
Will there be 15 .4 millions write off ???
Extract from annoucement, 
" Notwithstanding, after taking into account the ability of NLT to 
continue with the use of certain software licences, capitalised project costs amounting to approximately 
S$15.4 million as at 31 December 2019 (consisting of capitalised internal staff cost of S$6.1 million and 
third party costs of S$9.3 million) are expected to be written off.

Will NetLink Trust keep its connection strong amid the Covid-19 outbreak?
Samantha Chiew  23/03/2020, 11:46am
SINGAPORE (Mar 23): DBS Group Research is maintaining its &ldquo buy&rdquo call on Netlink NBN Trust with a lowered target price of 95 cents from $1.05 previously.
Year-to-date, the stock has dropped some 11.2% to trade at 84 cents on 11.35am of Mar 23.
In a Monday report, analyst Sachin Mittal says, &ldquo NetLink is trading at 5.8% yield, compared to an average yield of 6.2% offered by large-cap industrial S-REITs. We argue that Netlink should trade at 80-100 basis points (bps) lower yield than industrial S-REITs&rsquo as Netlink&rsquo s distributions are largely independent of the economic cycle due to the regulated nature of its business Netlink&rsquo s asset life is much longer as it incurs annual capex to replenish its depreciated asset base, and Netlink&rsquo s gearing is less than half of S-REITs&rsquo with ample debt headroom to fund future growth.&rdquo
The analyst benchmarks Netlink&rsquo s yield against industrial S-REITs whose asset life is 40-50 years. Netlink, on the other hand, incurs an annual capex of $50-60 million to replenish its depreciated asset base, leading to a very long asset life.
Currently, the trust&rsquo s net debt to EBITDA of less than 2 times, which implies ample room for raising cheap debt if needed. Regulated Asset Base (RAB) Trusts can lever up to 5 times easily, according to the analyst, implying that Netlink can easily raise up to $500 million in additional debt if required.
With this, the trust can use its debt headroom to invest in Smart Nation initiatives.
However, in the case of continued market dislocation due to the Covid-19 outbreak, industrial S-REITs could decline to -2SD valuation in the worst-case scenario. This would imply industrial S-REITs&rsquo average yield dropping to 7.7% from 6.2% currently, while share price is believe to shed some 20%.
&ldquo Given higher earnings resilience, lower gearing and longer asset life of NLT, we project Netlink to trade at 90bps of 6.8% under our bear case scenario,&rdquo says Mittal.
This translates into a bear-case price of 76 cents per share. This implies a downside risk of 10% including 5.8% yield.

There is a recent announcement by netlink regarding IT project being mutually discharge and there will be a lump sum (capitalised man power cost and equipments cost )  being write off.
I think the lump sum is quite significant but  i dont quite understand many terms in the announcement.
Anyone?

Rollercoaster ride today.
Dropped to 835, then surged back to 915 while the DJ future went green.
But then the entire sentiment is still bad, the trend is downward south.
How happy if you buy this morning when compared to his purchase yesterday. I never mention not worth, but today is cheaper and MORE WORTH IT than yesterday. Long term ... Of course all make money. But time factor. Dyodd. All the best. I will enter if below 80 cents because will attract my pocket.

MOney is still money,... do you think an investor would buy if he thinks it is not worth it ?

Current price not cheap when compared to other shares. If under 80 cents ... Maybe can consider picking cheap durians. His 50,000 shares just for a starter. Means will drop more before he picks up more. Lol.

Even this bugger also dropped.
I thought covid or recession, you still need fibre internet connection and those are on yearly contract.
When no work or no buz,  many will stay at home watch netflix, surf nt or porn.
