丹绒比艾供电基建
宏洋与Pestech协议失效

2016年10月30日
（吉隆坡29日讯）宏洋控股（BENALEC，5190，主板建筑股）与Pestech国际（PESTECH，5219，主板贸服股）针对柔佛笨珍丹绒比艾（Tanjung Piai）综合石油与海事工业园，兴建供电基建的了解备忘录失效。

2公司昨日纷纷向马交所报备，由于无法达就合作条件达成协议，也无意延长了解备忘录时效，因此宣布终止合作。

宏洋控股于去年4月，与Pestech国际签署了相关备忘录。 宏洋控股的综合石油与海事工业园计划占地3485英亩，将发展成大型综合石油、石化、海事领域，及其他油气相关服务的工业园。

因此，宏洋控股当时透过间接子公司丹绒比艾海事工业，与Pestech国际，签署备忘录，合作探讨兴建供电基建。

根据双方文告，2公司指出，备忘录终止对双方财务都没有影响。

同时，宏洋控股子公司丹绒比艾海事工业，也会为该工业园，另寻其他供电来源。

今年8月，宏洋控股也宣布和实康（SALCON，8567，主板贸服股），针对上述工业园的水供和排水处理基建计划谅解备忘录告吹。【e南洋】

归功于售地 宏洋控股首季净利暴增356%
By Ahmad Naqib Idris / theedgemarkets.com   | November 29, 2016 : 6:48 PM MYT
http://www.theedgemarkets.com/my/article/归功于售地-宏洋控股首季净利暴增356

（吉隆坡29日讯）营业额走高，激励宏洋控股（Benalec Holdings Bhd）首季净利暴增356%。

截至9月杪的2017财政年首季，净利达562万令吉，或每股0.9仙，相比去年同期的123万令吉，或每股0.2仙。

首季营业额从4404万令吉，增长超过一倍至9966万令吉。

宏洋控股今日向大马交易所报备，在该季度确认售地推高了营业额。行政和其他开销走低，也提振获利。

“尽管经商环境充满挑战，集团仍乐观评估集团未来几年的展望。”

“这是基于已经签署或公开宣布买卖协议的115.79英亩地，将创造约2亿1182万令吉的销售收入。”

宏洋控股补充，在2014年5月获得总值2亿390万令吉的填海合约，尚未被确认为营业额。

该集团表示，填海工程的收入稳定，在2017和2018财年将确认约3亿1490万令吉的营业额。

该集团补充，已经收到环境部（DOE）批准丹绒比艾综合石油与石化枢纽与海事工业园所有3个阶段填海工程的详细环境评估报告。

宏洋控股还获得环境部批准柔佛边佳兰海事工业园的填海和发展工程。

该集团说：“这两个项目预计将推动集团迈入下一个增长水平，使集团能够善用主要在石油与天然气领域下游活动的机会，尽管该领域面对挑战。”

主打柔两大填海项目．宏洋料时来运转

创办史要追溯至1978年的宏洋控股，是家全方位综合海事建筑公司，创办初先以土木工程业务扎稳根基，后再于90年代初踏进海事建筑领域，并因成功执行艰难的海岸保护工作而声名大噪，慢慢累积声望，成功在海事领域活跃至今。

经多年经营，宏洋如今的业务活动已涵盖填海、海岸保护、海事工程、支援服务、租船、船舰制造与维修、土木工程等，成了经验丰富的全能海事建筑专家。

其业务看似复杂，但各业务实际上都能互相辅助，有协同效应，原理就如同一家建筑公司同时经营产业和建材业务般，这使宏洋拥有很强的海事建筑能力和效率，也利于进度与成本管理，构成其核心竞争力。

过去13年，宏洋一直把焦点放在执行马六甲填海经营权，期间共填出和卖出超过2400英亩土地；在该项目上，宏洋独特之处在于不是收工程费的承包商，而是整个项目的策略发展商，除填海外还肩负了整个填海地区的发展方向，报酬是有权享有大量填海地，成为大地主。

一连拿下柔两大填海计划

鉴于此模式在马六甲大获成功，宏洋于是积极争取复制机会，结果4年前如愿以偿，一连拿下柔佛两大填海计划，震惊市场。

上述两项合计面积达5157英亩的填海项目，规模比宏洋的马六甲填海经营权大一倍以上，除进一步奠定宏洋的领域地位，也确保该公司在往后10至15年里都会很忙碌，宏洋董事部深信这两大计划能带领公司迈入下阶段成长。

鉴于这两项填海项目对宏洋影响深远，也是已知的最大潜在催化剂，故在这里给各位详细解释一下。



填海后获分土地

宏洋在柔佛拿下的填海计划，分别是占地1674英亩的边佳兰海事工业园（PMIP），和占地3485英亩的丹绒比艾海事工业园（TPMIP），两项计划均是配合政府把伊斯干达区打造成综合油气石化枢纽的策略而生，宏洋自资填海后将会获分大部份土地作为报酬，成为两大项目的大地主。

柔王储和白沙罗实业副主席
为子公司策略股东

值得一提的是，宏洋是透过其持股70%的SPEKTRUM KUKUH私人有限公司赢得柔佛填海项目，这家子公司拥有两位来头不小的策略股东，分别是持股21%的柔佛王储东姑依斯迈，和持股9%的阿邦马列，后者是白沙罗实业（DBHD，3484，主板产业组）副主席兼间接大股东。

放眼成为辅助服务行业枢纽的PMIP，地点将位于在全马最大油气与石化枢纽——边佳兰综合石化中心（PIPC）发展蓝图里，距离造价千亿令吉的边佳兰综合炼油及石化发展计划（RAPID）只有6公里远，成型后的PMIP放眼提供储藏，物流，贸易，港口等服务，以期从整个PIPC释出的巨大服务需求中受惠。

TPMIP则坐落于伊斯干达C区，15年发展值估计介于100亿至120亿令吉，距离新加坡裕廊岛约17公里，拥有介于24至30公尺的自然水深，可容纳各类大小船舰，加上位于新加坡，柔佛和马六甲海峡汇合点，放眼从繁忙海运线上攫取增值活动商机，包括上至下游油气业务、辅助行业、造船、物流、货仓等投资，该项目至今已填出超过200英亩土地，且开始招商。

拟与国际业者合资投资储油业务

实际上，宏洋本身就打算与国际知名业者合资投资储油业务，效仿戴乐集团（DIALOG，7277，主板贸服组）般透过出租储藏设施赚取经常性收入，目前正与潜在伙伴洽谈中。

卖地为核心收入
待售资产逾3亿

鉴于持续分得新土地，宏洋资产底蕴非常厚，待转手即可提振业绩表现，加上还有2亿3100万令吉营业额将在这一两年里兑现，短期业绩有一定的保障，能在柔佛填海计划开始贡献前稳住集团业绩。

2.3亿营收两年内兑现

不少投资者以为卖地只是宏洋的一次性收入，并不可持续，但这结论其实有误，因宏洋收入模式和一般公司不同，卖地正是核心收入之一，其原理是宏洋自资填海后会分获大量土地，得脱售套现才能被认列成损益表上的营业额和盈利，故会持续收地和卖地。

以年报资料推算，宏洋目前仍掌握超过300英亩可售地库和多间店屋在手，这些待售资产的账面值超过3亿令吉，实际价值相信更高，毕竟就该公司记账方式而言，土地账面值反映的仅仅是填海成本，并非土地的真正价值，过往记录亦显示宏洋售产时总有盈余。

除账面记载资产，宏洋在马六甲也还有300英亩填海地尚未到手，这亦是潜在收入来源。

业绩虽无惊喜
年年仍有钱赚

如宏洋般的公司，在先进市场里一般会用资产值来估价，这是鉴于其独特业务模式，使成本和收入兑现时机有巨差，短期业绩起伏较大，加上柔佛填海价值尚未释放，本益比估值难以到位，这也是为什么早年追踪宏洋的分析员，多数是以综合估值（SOP）、重估净资产值（RNAV）等着重资产的估值方式来拟定目标价。

股价仅相当于账面值0.68倍

整体看，业绩无大突破是宏洋的这些年的弱点，相信也是股价连跌多年的主要原因之一；然而，宏洋业绩虽无惊喜，最低限度仍是家年年有钱赚的公司，且业绩已连续3个财政年成长，还设有30%官方派息率，上市至今年年派息，资产值年年增加，情况显然还不错。

经多年连跌，宏洋股价目前仅相当于账面值的0.68倍，显示资产正以高折价交易，何况当前账面值还是被低估的，未反映资产市价和柔佛填海项目价值。

最重要的是，刚启动的两大柔佛填海项目才是宏洋未来重头戏，这两项计划潜在价值极深，又落在政府重点发展区内，一旦上了轨道，成功招来相关投资，对宏洋未来业绩和资产值的影响实在难以估量。

未来，若任何一项柔佛填海项目出现重大进展，如找到合作伙伴，引进知名投资者等，预计都会振奋投资情绪，成为催化剂。

到时，或许就是宏洋时来运转之时了。
