Upon completion of first liftboat as stipulated in the terms of the facility, the Group had drawn down the Ijarah Facility which amounted to RM264,000,000 to settle Murabaha Facility and the balance for working capital purposes. As part of the agreement, the Ijarah Facility allows the Group to transfer the drawn down facility to the related party upon post completion and commercial operation of the first liftboat, subject to the mutual agreement between both parties. As at 23 April 2019, the transfer of the loan has not been completed. - From Annual Report 2018 page 157.

"Kuala Lumpur, February 4, 2020 – Amid many challenges and external factors affecting the
global economy, Eversendai is off to a great start in 2020 winning new contracts. With more
than RM10 Billion in tender book, there are many more interesting projects to come in this
year.
Eversendai Corporation Berhad, announced today that it has secured six new projects worth
RM323 million by its group of companies in Malaysia, India and Qatar. The Group has
increased the value of its order book to approximately RM1.87 billion inclusive of the new wins,
which would enhance the bottom line for 2020.

The newly secured contracts include a structural steel link bridge connecting two buildings
and structures for a retail leisure commercial project in Kuala Lumpur. Eversendai have also
secured the structural steel works for a commercial building project in Hyderabad, India. The
Group continues to strengthen its position in the Middle East by securing 3 new contracts in
Qatar for a commercial building podium structure; a hotel and a mixed-use building project.

Yesterday, Eversendai Corporation Berhad ("Eversendai") announced that it received an unsolicited offer to purchase 100% of Vahana Offshore (M) Sdn Bhd ("Vahana") to be settled via the issuance of RCPS. The rationale of the transaction (as explained in the letter of offer) is that it gives Eversendai shareholders the opportunity to purchase 2 oil and gas assets (1 already deployed, 1 to be completed in mid-2021) chartered to ARAMCO:

https://www.bursamalaysia.com/market_information/announcements/company_announcement/announcement_details?ann_id=3022159

If you scroll back to Eversendai's announcements back in 2014 you will see the original contract award from Vahana Offshore (S) Pte Ltd (the company names are slightly different, but you will notice the liftboat names are consistent, Arjun and Aryan):

https://www.bursamalaysia.com/market_information/announcements/company_announcement/announcement_details?ann_id=1767247

Readers will also note that Vahana is owned by Tan Sri AK Nathan (Eversendai majority shareholder) and his family.

So what has happened here? Lets speculate:
1) Eversendai in 2014 pushed through a RPT to build liftboats (the company's first venture into the oil & gas industry) for a company owned by Tan Sri at what we assume to be market rates. Eversendai minorities presumably approved this because well, the balance sheet risk will be on Tan Sri under his private company, right?

2) In 2020, a whole SIX YEARS after the initial award of the contract, only one of the liftboats has been completed and chartered and an Eversendai minority shareholders are given the "opportunity" to buy into a company owning one completed asset and one asset under construction. And the proposed purchase price is not cash, only RCPS, so in effect Tan Sri is just increasing his interest in Eversendai, right?

3) Note 20 (Trade Receivables) of Eversendai's 2018 Annual Report stated approx. RM235mil of trade receivables are owed by a related party (if you refer to the Key Audit Matters stated in the Independent Auditors Report, you will see this is for the same contract - the construction of liftboats for a related party). It is at this point that i would like to point out to readers that the original contract awarded from Vahana to Eversendai was RM580mil (so in effect, SIX years after the contract awarded, [and here we assume with one boat delivered and one halfway complete, the percentage work done on the contract is about 75% or RM435mil] MORE THAN HALF [54%] of this contract amount has not been paid to Eversendai). These amounts were not visible in Eversendai's 2016 or 2017 Annual Reports which lead me to believe that payment terms of the contract it signed with Vahana are very backloaded in nature.

4) What has happened here? Well we can effectively speculate based on publicly available information:
(a) Tan Sri via his private company entered into a VERY FAVOURABLE related party transaction with Eversendai where the public listed company effectively funded his private venture to build liftboats.
(b) Construction on the liftboats have been VERY delayed because no matter how high tech your liftboat is, there is no way it should take 6-7 years just to finish 2. (For reference Bumi Armada, which build FPSOs which are far larger, will take about 3 years to deploy an FPSO which cost billions of ringgit).
(c) Even after the first liftboat has been delivered (in mid-2018 https://www.nst.com.my/business/2018/04/357989/eversendai-eyes-us200m-job), Vahana DRAGGED the payment to Eversendai, so shareholders continue to fund his private venture.
(d) And finally, now he OFFERS Eversendai minorities the OPPORTUNITY to buy this very costly mistake. Why? Presumably because Vahana doesn't have the cash to pay the amounts owed to Eversendai.

Guys, if any of you hold the shares PLEASE vote against this abomination of a deal at the EGM. Tan Sri cannot continue to shortchange the minorities of Eversendai by making them buy over his expensive mistake. It has been one questionable decision after another when it comes to this contract and you all deserve better.

vcinvestor.. all good points except one thing maybe you need to add.. if it is a mistake.. isn't it better Tan Sri gets more shares in sendai? then later he bears more of the loss. Also.. investors must decide to rather have receivables keep going up or earnings from the 5 year contract?

Posted by moneygame1 > Feb 11, 2020 11:28 AM | Report Abuse

you should only say the purchase consideration should be very low to sendai for this to be fair to minority shareholders.

Hi moneygame1,

My point of view is basically this:
The project is already problematic, it is behind schedule and (based on the late payment from Vahana to Eversendai) has probably gone over budget. I will paint 2 scenarios:

Scenario 1 - Eversendai acquires Vahana and its assets. The receivables owed from Vahana to Eversendai are effectively cancelled out (since these are interco). The puchase of Vahana from Eversendai is settled using RCPS and hence no cash proceeds come into Eversendai.

Effectively Eversendai will no longer collect any further cash from Vahana (the RM235mil receivables owed as at Dec'18 and any additional work done on the contract) AND it will likely have to incur additional borrowings to fund the remainder of the contract. Eversendai's cash position as at Sept'19 is RM19mil (exclude bank overdrafts and pledged deposits), while its gearing stood at 1.51 times.

Scenario 2 - Eversendai COLLECTS the RM253mil receivables owed by Vahana (and the remainder of its contract sum) and uses it to pay down its short term debt (every RM100mil of debt paid down will reduce gearing by 0.10x and interest expense by RM4mil p.a.). With the healthier cash pile, maybe the company could even declare its first dividend since 2016 (whereas in the RCPS scenario, the dividend will be payable to Tan Sri only, screwing minorities even further).

What i'm trying to say is (in my opinion), no matter what the purchase consideration is for Vahana's assets, the bigger issue for Eversendai should be paring down its debt and replenishing its cash coffers, not acquiring more long term assets. The Group's balance sheet is stretched to its limit as is. As at Sept'19 the Group has RM900mil in trade and other payables outstanding + RM872mil in short term borrowings compared to RM2.1bil receivables. The Group regularly undertakes over RM1.0bil worth of construction works annually, all it takes is one or two big contract disputes or late payments and the company will hit a liquidity crunch.

You trust that Tan Sri?
It will be similar to put your trust in Linear Corp, Master Skill or London Biscuit.
All came with similar Modus Operandi.
All will end up in similar manner.
