Yes, saw the news yesterday. Sembmarine' s announcement is much clearer.
Pretty much expected and a slightly positive news as Sembmarine will receive $20+ million cash as ecxtension fee next month.
Borr drilling owes Sembmarine about $1.1 billion and Keppel OM about $400million.
SCM is in much better position than Keppel OM as they have delivered all the 9 rigs in 2018/19 and the amount owing has been earning interest @4.5% p.a.
Keppel only managed to deliver 3 rigs in 2020 and the rest of the 5 completed rigs are sitting at its yard pending delivery in 2023 or later.
The news is expected as Borr drilling is not going to be able to pay $1.1 billion next May as they only managed to farm out most of the rigs this year due to the covid disruption.

Stock market, by nature is roller coaster. If that is your concern, trading is not for you. Maybe buy property and collect rental is much suitable to you. After holding for more than 15 years, likely can fully pay off your unit with rental

He not just burnt by SMM alone. Look at all his buy called on Keppel Corp, PropNex and Starhub, all underwater...
Let' s see how long he can hold on short position for SMM. Short needs to pay interest lo

Don't even need TH backing now, the financial position is very strong now after the recapitalization. He is merely hoping for bad things that have never happened like more lawsuits, bankruptcy, etc, will quickly happen to feed his sadism. He chose to assume and EXAGGERATE all bad events will happen to SM in the future as if he is a fortune teller and can tell the future, where no one else can predict. I strongly believe he must have been burned by SM before. Hell has no fury like a woman scorned.

He constantly hopes for SM to go bankrupt so that he can enjoy watching us suffering. Fortunately, he is terribly bad with numbers, accounting, economics and finance. His dying wish will forever remain a dream, only his karma will materialise, 7 folds

" When company growth with revenue.........."
Starhub' s financial numbers (Source: Yahoo Finance)
2017
Total revenue- $2.400 billion
Net income- $249 million
2019
Total revenue- $2.330 billion
Net income- $186.3 million
Latest 12 months
Total revenue- $2.042 billion
Net income- $148.4 million
Further, 5G means huge capital expenditure and cash outflow in the coming years. Maybe a rights issue since Starhub cannot borrow much more now with its high debt/ equity ratio?

SCM 1.5bil raised in sep only left 970mio in Nov. This is 100mio sgd. SCM can burn 100-200mio per month. So it is not 1 time burnt. Furthermore, this is only 1 vendor, there are many vendors may take action since the earlier they lock in the lawsuit, they are rank in early queue for payments if SCM is forced to winding up.

SCM net cash flow was nearly negative 500mio which mean not even able to pay for the borrowing interest or payment to all parties. A merely 76mio usd or 100mio sgd payment can be sued for bankruptcy by creditors.

"when company growth with revenue and net positive cash flow(generate cash, not like SCM cash burnt), liabilities can leave it aside." SCM liabilities cannot be ignored, because revenue is decline and net cash flow is negative.

Sembmarine unit faces arbitration over equipment supply contracts
FRI, DEC 24, 2021 - 8:40 AM
 
  UPDATED FRI, DEC 24, 2021 - 2:32 PM
 

Jurong Shipyard' s vendor is alleging breach of four contracts for the supply of equipment for some of the company' s projects.

SEMBCORP Marine (Sembmarine)  Sembcorp Marine: S51 0%  on Friday (Dec 24) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Jurong Shipyard has received a notice of commencement of arbitrations from a vendor over 4 separate contracts.
The vendor is alleging breach of the contracts, which are for the supply of equipment for some of Jurong Shipyard' s projects.
Under these contracts, it is claiming payment for invoices amounting to US$76 million plus other costs and interests, which Sembmarine said " remain to be proved" by the vendor.
According to Sembmarine, Jurong Shipyard, which provides services such as ship repair, shipbuilding and ship conversion,  maintains that these contracts have been validly suspended or terminated.
The group also said both parties were previously in discussions over the payment claims for such suspension or termination, but have yet to reach an agreement.
Jurong Shipyard has engaged legal advisers for the arbitration proceedings and will defend all claims made against it, said Sembmarine.
The latest development is another blow to the embattled offshore and marine company, which is having a difficult year battling pandemic-related supply chain disruptions and labour issues.
Sembmarine said in a third-quarter update that it continues to face Covid-19 supply chain constraints and shortages of skilled workers. 
These were " seriously affecting"   its projects, delaying the scheduled completion of several projects between 1 and 3 months.
Sembmarine&rsquo s shares appear to be trading well below their  &ldquo estimated value range&rdquo , which was deemed to be between S$0.125 and S$0.14 per share by its independent financial adviser.
It has been more than 4 months since shares of Sembmarine traded close to the bottom end of this estimated value range. Shares of Sembmarine trading have traded closer to Temasek&rsquo s offer price of S$0.08 instead.
The counter closed flat at S$0.082 on Dec 24, after the news.
