RE: Strong bounce coming, down 8 days in a row25 Nov 2022 10:25
This is taken from Samis really optimistic half year update. The point about contracts being evenly awarded in the second half has not materialised.
Looking at the debt of 340 million which is supposed to reduce second half, and the 500 million liquidity, I am worried about how those 2 figures will look in December.
I read in a book this week that it's not so much the actual news that has been released by a company, but more importantly how the market reacts. In this case appallingly.
Half year update.
Business performance EBIT of US$2 million(1)(2)
Reported net loss of US$(14) million(2) inclusive of separately disclosed items
Group order intake of US$1.1 billion(3) with book-to-bill of 0.9x
Healthy 18-month Group pipeline of US$57 billion
High levels of bidding activity in E&C with opportunities expected to be awarded evenly over the second half
Backlog of US$3.7 billion
Net debt of US$341 million(6) and liquidity of US$511 million(7)
Free cash flow in second half expected to be broadly neutral
