OK, I am starting to accumulate the following counters: 1) First Resources 2) Olam 3) Indo Agr I felt that cliamte change will push commodity pices higher. However, due to the mkt sentiment, all these counters were being pulled down. However, when the mkt stablises, I believe these commodity counters will surge...my view only! |

Gulf oil output at a trickle ahead of Gustav HOUSTON - U.S. energy companies shut nearly all offshore oil production and were racing to bring down flood-prone Louisiana refineries on Sunday ahead of Hurricane Gustav's landfall, which could rival the wrath of 2005's Hurricane Katrina. Oil is going up because of the Hurricane is coming, will this bring the palm oil share px up ?? lets see what will happen today... |

It's in the oversold zone. Let's hope it rebound from there. Buyers swelled previously due to the inflation story and commodity counters were the best bet then. However, the US economy shows signs of growth and inflation started to play down lately, I do believe the buyers will starts to become sellers and smart $$ were flowed out of the industry. Commodity counters had dropped since and corrected 30%-50% so far. FirstRes had corrected more than 50% from high of $1.70 then. Most of the commodity counters were showing sign of rebound but not FirstRes. Wonder what is the reason behind all these. Could it be that it's waiting for the company to finish the buy-back programme before it rebound. Dun forget the BBs are also the shareholders and they definitely wants to the company to buy back the share with value/or best value and hence pressed down the counter? Not vested, might consider to accumulate if the price begin to move, I mean move up! |

1st Resources started share buy-back in early July, from $1.10 to $0.635. At current price, it looks rather attractive. Is it time to move in now? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

FIRST RESOURCES DELIVERS RECORD EARNINGS AND NET PROFIT FOR 1H2008 - Revenue rises 91.2% to Rp1,453.9 billion (S$215.5 million*) - EBITDA up 151.5% to a record Rp881.5 billion (S$130.7million*) - Strong growth in EBITDA margin from 46.1% in 1H2007 to 60.6% in 1H2008 - Announces interim dividend of 1.4 Singapore cents per ordinary share Singapore, 13 August 2008 – First Resources Limited (“First Resources” or, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Group”), one of the leading oil palm plantation companies in Indonesia, today announced a strong set of results for the first half ended 30 June 2008 (“1H2008”). Financial Performance For the quarter ended 30 June 2008 (“2Q2008”) and 1H2008, the Group’s income statements included the results of PT Meridan Sejatisurya Plantation (“PT MSSP”), which effectively became a 94%-owned subsidiary after acquisitions of additional interests in July and December 2007. For the quarter (“2Q2007”) and first half (“1H2007”) ended 30 June 2007, the Group only equity-accounted for PT MSSP as it was a 25%-owned associate at that time. Furthermore, the acquisition of minority interests in PT Panca Surya Agrindo in December 2007 also resulted in a smaller proportion of results being shared with minority shareholders in 2Q2008/1H2008 as compared to 2Q2007/1H2007. For 1H2008, the Group posted an all-time-high revenue of Rp1,453.9 billion (S$215.5 million*), up 91.2% from 1H2007. EBITDA was also a record high of Rp881.5 billion (S$130.7 million*), an increase of 151.5% over the last corresponding period while net profit attributable to shareholders reached Rp701.6 billion (S$104.0 million*), a 222.5% increase from 1H2007. * Exchange rate of Rp6,746 /SGD For 1H2008, the Group’s revenue and EBITDA were up 68.6% and 97.7% from the same period last year. Net profit attributable to shareholders was Rp390.2 billion (S$57.9 million*), an increase of 141.4% year-on-year. Mr Ciliandra Fangiono, CEO of First Resources said, “We are pleased with our continued strong performance in the second quarter, which was mainly driven by favourable crude palm oil prices and strong production volume growth.” In line with its good performance, the Company announced an interim dividend payment (taxexempt) of 1.4 Singapore cents per ordinary share. Financial Position Due to strong cash flows from its operations, the Group’s balance sheet remains healthy despite continued investments in plantation and fixed assets. As at 30 June 2008, the Group has approximately Rp1,562.5 billion (S$231.6 million*) of cash and cash equivalents on hand, and maintained a low net debt to equity** ratio of 0.08 times. Operational Highlights The Group delivered an impressive set of operational performance in 1H2008. Production of fresh fruit bunches increased 17.5% over the same period last year bringing the fresh fruit bunch yield to 10.4 tons per hectare. The strong performance was a combination of favourable weather and the on-going maturing of the Group’s oil palm trees. Crude palm oil (“CPO”) extraction rate, a measure of CPO extracted per unit of fresh fruit bunch, also increased to 22.85% from 22.50% in the same period last year. Total CPO production in 1H2008 was 149,075 tons, a 24% increase over the 120,583 tons produced in 1H2007. Developments and Outlook The Group is on track with its plantation expansion plans and has planted more than 5,000 hectares of new oil palms in the first half of this year. As of 30 June 2008, the Group’s total planted area was 91,447 hectares of which 62,616 hectares are mature. The Group’s planting programme has kept its plantation profile young. As of 30 June 2008, 32% of planted area consists of immature oil palms, indicating significant future production growth as the trees mature and start yielding. “Despite recent volatilities in CPO prices, the palm oil industry remains supported by favourable fundamentals. This gives us impetus and optimism in executing our growth strategies, in the form of new plantings and productivity gains. We will continue to invest and capitalise on our strengths and competencies to grow the size of our plantation footprint” said Mr Fangiono. |

DMG starts First Resources at Buy with $1.43 target, based on 13X FY08 earnings. Says palm oil producer has attractive offering profile, with weighted average age of plantings at 7 years in FY07, considered in peak production age group. 61% of its planted area is in prime category, while 11% in young category; "as these young trees mature over the next few years, FFB and CPO production will rise with minimal increases in costs or capital expenditure." Notes upstream operations like First Resources biggest beneficiaries of current favourable CPO price trends. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
