A lift for O&G firms12 September 2015
IT seems local institutional funds are still hungry for new shares and bonds by oil and gas companies, as they search for bargains amid the turmoil in the industry caused by a steep decline in the price of crude oil.
These cash rich buyers, including Lembaga Tabung Haji who appear to be taking a long-term view of their investment, even as most investors are shying away from the sector.
Earlier this week, the pilgrim fund bankrolled the entire RM275mil fund-raising exercise by its 30%-owned TH Heavy Engineering Bhd.
This was after other shareholders in TH Heavy declined the offer to subscribe to the rights issue.
Tabung Haji paid 25 sen a piece for the Islamic irredeemable convertible preference (ICPS-i), which came attached with a fixed 20% dividend based on the nominal value of the ICPS-i payable over five years.
The dividend promise provides some element of guaranteed returns for the fund, plus an upside potential if shares in TH Heavy goes up.
Tabung Haji’s decision to pump in more money into TH Heavy came in as much needed financial boost for the loss-making company.
TH Heavy is in the midst of building its first floating, production, storage and offloading vessel, which has already secured a contract and is expected to be ready by the third quarter of 2016.
Meanwhile, an unnamed local institutional fund is also taking a big bet on another oil and gas contractor SapuraKencana Petroleum Bhd.
The fund was said to be the sole subscriber of SapuraKencana’s US$200mil (RM846mil) sukuk that was issued during the week. Proceeds from the exercise will be used to refinance some of its existing debts totalling close to RM17bil.
The 7-year sukuk carries a yield of 4.85% and is unrated. SapuraKencana is one the world’s largest tender rig operator.
It counts the Employees Providence Fund, Retirement Fund Inc (KWAP) and Permodalan Nasional Bhd among its substantial shareholders.
The slump in crude oil prices is taking its toll on producers around the world. For companies like SapuraKencana and TH Heavy, strong backing from local institutional funds is a blessing.
But are these funds exposing themselves too much to volatile oil prices?
