- We have conservatively estimated the likely financial performance of the new mine. As these estimates are preliminary, we have not fully incorporated these in our earnings model for SAR. We have also revised our estimates for Sebuku mine lower based on management feedback.
- Possible positive catalysts include stronger coal price and better than expected financial performance of the proposed acquisition. Some risk remains on acquisition completion, integration as wel as reserve life extension of Sebuku mine site.
- We believe that SAR.s risk-reward profile has improved post acquisition based on likely reserve life extension and our scenarios on coal pricing and valuation (Figure 3). Raising our rating from Neutral to OUTPERFORM.

StraitsAsia closed 1.52c gain of 8c, with reporting season kicking off this week and upgrade BUY2 from UBS, expect the unexpected, more upside according to TA chart just breakout uptrend. Expect low volume on Mon, and  Hence if 1.54c is cleared can see 1.62c Short term 1.79c long term 1.98c Stop loss is set at 1.39c if market turns sour. Overall, the report for 2008 and 2009 looks promising. :rolleyes:

Hi....

Why should invoking a Force Majeure work against the share price of this company. From what I've read, invoking a Force Majeure protects the company from fulfilling its contractual obligations due to Acts of God. Isn't this supposed to be beneficial to the company? So why did the price plummet so drastically only for it to swing up later...but still ended 18c lower.

Anyone????

Vested, unfortunately.

Hi all,

 

I am very new in the stock market. Has such a thing happened before to Straits Asia? How long does it take to recover?

 

Thanks

I am not vested but here is the news that is responsible for the big drop.

Straits Asia Resources Limited (Straits Asia, SGX: SAR), would like to advise the Singapore Exchange that Force Majeure has been declared at our Sebuku coal operation (Sebuku) in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Following on from the extended wet season in Kalimantan approximately 417mm of rainfall has fallen at Sebuku in the last week resulting in the disruption of mining operations. This rainfall event was beyond our reasonable control and its impact has affected and will affect the performance of obligations under agreements to deliver coal to customers.

The Force Majeure event commenced on 30th July 2007. All reasonable steps are being undertaken to mitigate the impact of the event and resume normal operational performance.

We will keep the market advised of developments in relation to this event, including when the Force Majeure condition is lifted.

Default STRUCTURALLY positive on coal price outlook

Business Times
Published July 21, 2007


Brokers' Take

Straits Asia Resources
July 20 close: S$1.52
UBS, July 19

STRUCTURALLY positive on coal price outlook: The UBS commodity team recently upgraded its 2008 and 2009 benchmark coal price projections to US$70/t and US$75/t, respectively, from US$58/t previously, on three structural themes: 1) strong China imports; 2) slowing exports from Indonesia; and 3) resilient demand from India, Japan and Korea. Our bottom-up analysis supports this view.

Upgrade 2008-09E earnings: We increase our coal price assumptions to US$51/t in 2008 and US$55/t in 2009 (both from US$46.3/t) for Straits Asia. The rising coal price and the termination of copper marketing contract should enhance profit margin. We lift 2008/09E EPS from US$0.09/US$0.11 to US$0.11/US$0.15, which represent 94 per cent and 40 per cent year-on- year growth, respectively.

Looking to acquire coal mines: The company raised its 2009 coal production target to 10mt with 6mt from the Sebuku mine and the remaining from acquisition. In our recent meeting, the senior management has re-emphasised its commitment to focus on the coal industry, including an acquisition plan to further boost volume and reserve growth outlook.

Raising price target to S$1.72, reiterate 'buy': We stress the strong earnings growth in 2008-09 despite lowering coal output in 2007 due to severe rainfall in H1. Our rising coal price assumption led us to increase our price target from S$1.55 to S$1.72 (at WACC of 10.1 per cent), which implies 10.6 times 2008E PE.
BUY

target price 1.55 - 1.72 ....
