NEWS RELEASE
AQUA-TERRA SETS UP A RIGGING AND
TESTING & CERTIFICATION FACILITY IN BATAM
SINGAPORE,
(?Aqua-Terra? or ?ATS?) today announced that it has set up a rigging and testing &
certification facility in Batam. This new facility is poised to serve the needs of the
rapidly increasing number of oil and gas and marine companies operating in Batam.
Incorporated in Indonesia, this new entity is a subsidiary of Marinehub Pte Ltd
(?Marinehub?). It will operate under the name of PT MH Global Indonesia
(?PTMHG?). Marinehub is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aqua-Terra.
PTMHG occupies an area of 86,000 square feet within the 400-hectare Kabil
Industrial Estate, which is located on the eastern seaboard of Batam Island, Indonesia.
This industrial park is owned and managed by PT Kabil Indonusa Estate. The
presence of Aqua-Terra in Batam is timely. Recent years have seen an increasing
number of shipbuilding, marine and oil and gas companies expanding their
manufacturing and fabricating operations to the island. This new facility will enable
Aqua-Terra to expand its rigging and testing & certification facility that is currently
located in Singapore, so that it can better serve its customers in Batam.
Commenting on Aqua-Terra?s move, Mr. Kris Wiluan, Chairman and CEO said, ?the
close proximity of Batam to Singapore and the recent implementation of the Special
Economic Zone have raised the attractiveness of Batam as an operation base for the
oil and gas and marine industries. Our Kabil Industrial Estate, which has an offshore
jetty capable to berth vessels of 30,000 dwt, is currently serving many international
oil and gas and marine companies, and Aqua-Terra?s presence will help us to respond
more rapidly to the needs of customers operating in Batam and Singapore.?

A player in the booming oil and gas industry. The recent weakness in
market sentiment has resulted in Aqua-Terra Supply's (ATS) share price
falling by 18% from its peak in mid October. Given ATS's affirmed market
position and strong order book from the booming oil and gas industry, we
view ATS as an undervalued stockist whose true potential has yet to be
fully appreciated.
Recent wins augment ATS' market position. In Jan 07, ATS secured its
maiden sizeable project of S$68m from China National Offshore Oil Corp
(CNOOC) Oil Base Group Ltd to provide integrated procurement and
management services for the construction of Bunkering Oil Tankers and
Offshore Utility Vessels. In Sept 07, ATS clinched another S$30m contract
to supply pre-fabricated chord and rack and other rig components for the
construction of a jack-up rig. We view both wins to be an affirmation of ATS'
market position and capability as a one-stop shop engineering services
provider.
Expect more contract wins in 2008. Owing to robust demand from the
local yards, 75% of ATS' revenue comes from
of these yards stretching out till 2010-11, we expect ATS to continue to
have good earnings visibility and contract wins in the coming year. Although
we expect piecemeal contracts from the overseas operations to flow in
soon, we have not factored in ATS' long term consumables and equipment
supply for the rig refurbishment facility in
Maiden contributions from China in FY08. We expect topline contribution
of S$49m from the operations in
projects are merely the tip of the ice-berg, and ATS should be leaving more
footprints in the Chinese rig market. We are optimistic of the potential
upside from
from 8% currently to 20%.
Reiterate BUY with fair value of S$0.70. We are projecting bottom-line
gain of S$11.5m (EPS of S$0.033) for FY07 and S$19.5m (S$0.056 EPS)
for FY08. Using 16x FY07/08F blended earnings, we derive a fair value of S$0.70 .

Aqua Terra S falls under the oversold status..... It's the time to pick up the stock before it's too late.....
Hi,
No point pinning this up hoping mid term it would go up... The BB/investors are trying to make this stock down... probably goes down to 0.45 or lower before it rebounces
Thanks and Best Rgds,
Happy
Key factors: (e.g. China & Middle East), High oil prices resulting in more demand
in the rig building market, and Singapore's fragmented market as 75% of ATS's
revenue comes from Singapore.
Oil and gas and marine sectors are still robust, but with high oil prices, most
energy-linked stocks have become pricey. Hence, offshore engineering companies
? those that are involved in the manufacturing and distribution of oil and gas
equipment and products, and are playing an equally crucial and profitable role in
this booming oil and gas market.
likely to have strong upsides. Good to stock up now.
ATS latest S$0.85 fair value implies upside of 75.25% from last done price of S$0.485 (5 Nov).
Phillip Securities Research (update: 5 Nov 07)
Upgrade to BUY, with fair value estimate of $0.85.
We value ATS at $0.85, based on 15x FY08 PER. We have adjusted our PE peg up from 11x to
account current boom in the oil and gas industry, of which we view ATS to be a direct beneficiary.
We also believe ATS deserves a higher valuation than before, due to the vast improvements in
product offering, and extended geographical reach. Upgrade to BUY, with fair value estimate of $0.85.
Going by our estimates, current net order book based on announced contracts, with fulfillments
stretching into FY09, are close to S$130 mil.

Valuation
We have updated our top line estimates for FY07 and FY08 to S$194.4 mil (-2.7%) and S$260.6 mil (-4.8%), respectively. We have also revised our net profit estimates to S$14.0 mil (+3.0%) for FY07 and S$19.9 mil (+11.8%) for FY08 to account for stronger contribution from associate, SSH Corp.

Hi taybc1071
Thanks!!! Great to have this small dividend, but think it is good because it won't dilute the cash in this company, in order to fund operations...
Dow Jones not badly affected in today's trade so far.. The wave going to come for aqua to cheong based on technical analysis and its fundamentals. Alot of people is not accumulating at such good price range, that is great
The stock's resistance level is 0.49, time to buy. Cheers...
Hi happyse27, you will get S$2.74 per lot (1000 shares) if you buy on 5th Nov . If you have 10
lots, the divdend payment is S$27.40.
Hope this help.
May I know how much money each lot of share entitled to when there are shares bought on the 5th NOV and the dividend is executed on 16th NOV. Now is already going to month end...
And what is the impact after that. Not really familar with dividend.
Anyone can enlighten???
Thanks,
Happy
