It hit off with China CNPC with it crude oil of 43million barrels of oil reserves. A first listed company in Sinapore to own oil concession in China. A company worthy to watch (Aug06 px) going for $0.13 cents +0.015 cents with a volume of 29.3 million shares traded.
Forward looking over the next several months, i think this stock will be more interesting to look at....the best part is guarantee profit $$$.
Buy on dip and with ur mean if oso depend on how deep is ur pocket.
Your $$$ and is your decision, hope it help.
It has gradually exited the cyclical and loss-making construction / engineering business over the past two years to focus on new opportunities in the energy sector. Following the disposal of four building and engineering-related subsidiaries early this year, Magnus is now emerging as a niche resource player in the upstream oil, gas and coal industries.
54.4% owned Mid-Continent is one of the largest stockist and equipment supplier (mainly pipes, valves and consumables) to the oil drilling market in SE Asia and is well placed to benefit from the offshore oil boom. 40% of its revenues were derived from a JV with Mitsubishi. To gain a foothold in the oil and gas industry, it invested A$2.5m in a 25% participating interest in Australia's Cooper Basin gas deposits. Initial survey from one exploration well found 24bcf of gas reserves but the field is still far from being economically viable and may be eventually hived off to the bigger players.
In Aug 06, the group entered into a $26.6m deal to acquire a 75% stake in Yongda, which owns three oilfield concessions covering 17 sq km in China's Jilin province with proven oil reserves of 43m barrels. Under its 20-year PSC with CNPC, Yongda gets to keep 80% (Aug 99-Aug 09) and 60% (Aug 09-Aug 19) share of production volume, which will be entirely sold to CNPC. Currently, Yongda has 57 oil wells pumping out >300bpd and plans to quickly ramp up production to 450bpd (+26 wells) and to 700bpd within 12-18 months. Based on an average price of US$65/bbl, KE forecasts oil sales to contribute net attributable profit of $5.7m to the group's bottomline in FY08.
Following its US$18m purchase of PT Deefu Chemical, Magnus has an effective 68.4% interest in the 68,360-ha Kuaro coal concession (30 years) in East Kalimantan, which has an estimated inferred coal reserve of ~500m tons. Capital investment required to develop this coal project will cost ~US$5-7m and initial production is expected to commence in mid 07 starting with 40k tons/mth and going up to 100-150k tons/mth. Factoring in FOB coal price of US$32/ton, 13.5% government royalty and extraction cost of US$18/ton, we are projecting coal mining to haul in net earnings of S$3.3m and S$8.3m for the group in FY08 and FY09 respectively.
KE anticipates Magnus to return to profitability in FY07 rising to $18.3m in FY10 but EPS will be dented by its huge capital base of 1.54bn shares, which may see a further 9.3% increase in FY07. This is because the group has been financing its recent acquisitions mainly via equity despite its low gearing. Unless the group strikes a big oil or gas discovery or manages to extract a lot more from its oilfields or coal mines, the stock is fairly valued at forward PER valuations of 25x and 15.6x for FY08 and FY09.

Will acquire a majority stake in Songyuan Yongda Oilfields Exploration and Technology, an oil & gas company, possibly making it the first locally listed firm to own oil concessions there. Magnus is paying $26.6m for the entire capital of investment holding firm Bridging Resources, which owns 65% of Yongda. It will acquire, through Bridging, another 10% following legal completion of the deal.
Through the acquisition, Magnus' 05 net losses of $1.53m will become net income of $1.45m. Magnus is funding an intial $8m cash through the sale of new shares at $0.1047. Yongda owns producing oilfields with reserves of 43m barrels of crude oil, as certified by China National Petroleum Corp (CNPC). It's now producing an average of over 300 barrels per day.
