Weekly Analysis ww5'12 -ChinaAOil

Hello everyone, thanks for your interest in reading this blog. The content of this blog is all about investment.
Actually, the purpose of writing this blog is for my own reference. In the past, I do analysis and keep my record somewhere. Now, I make use of this blog as a place to keep my record and at the same time sharing it out.

I would like to mention that the stock I will be talking here has gone through the first phase of filtering. Only 97 stocks out of 1000+ in SGX worth dig further. The filtration criteria was based on five to ten years fundamental data of EPS growth rate, ROE, DE ratio, etc. But yet, I believe there are still some outliers within the 97 stocks. Now, i will do the 2nd phase of filtering and post all my analysis here. Anyway, this doesn't means that the the stocks that get filtered were bad, it's just not my type. It's my hope to cover everything from background of company, earning prospect, competition, industry prospect, and market trend, but I am afraid I may not have enough time. So, at least I will give a conclusion in the end.

Note that there might have some financial terms that you may not understand, please go to wikipedia or similar services to look for explanation. It's not practical for me to cover everything here. With the time you spend, you will learn something, let it be financial knowledge, a new concept or market information. -Person is defined by where he/she spend their time!

Stock of the Week: ChinaAOil, (G92) in SGX

Company Background (retrieved from shareinvestor.com @ 28th Jan 2012)

The Company was incorporated in Singapore on 26 May 1993. It became a public company on 6 December 2001 and changed its name from China Aviation Oil (S) Pte Ltd to China Aviation Oil (S) Corporation Ltd ('CAO'). CAO was conferred the Approved Oil Trader (AOT) award (which was later changed to Member of the Global Trader Programme) by the Government of Singapore in 1998. The largest shareholder of CAO is China Aviation Oil Supply Corporation ('CAOSC'), one of the largest state-owned enterprises in China. CAOSC is responsible for the construction of aviation oil supply infrastructure, purchase of aviation oil supply equipment and the supply of jet fuel to over 100 foreign and domestic airlines (including the purchase, transportation, storage, and into-plane services of jet fuel) at more than 100 civil airports throughout China. CAO’s main business includes Jet Fuel Procurement, International Oil Trading and Oil-related investment. CAO has established a 'three-pronged' strategy, that embrace, 'Strengthen the import jet fuel procurement, Expand International Oil trading business and Develop oil-related investment.' Imported jet fuel procurement is the core business and base of CAO, whilst international oil trading will not only expand CAO’s scale but also improve its profits, oil-related investments will ensure CAO continues to achieve steady growth. Presently, CAO has close to 100 percent market share of the procurement of imported jet fuel for the civil aviation industry in China. CAO succeeded in conducting international oil trade in jet fuel, fuel oil, gas oil, crude oil, petrochemical products and oil derivatives. The company has also expanded its market beyond China to ASEAN countries, Far East and America etc. In April 2002, CAO was successful through an exclusive tender exercise, to secure an offer to invest in a Spanish oil logistic and facilities company CLH, which is a leading oil carrier and owner of the largest network of oil pipelines.

Company Type: 
Oil trading + Aviation industry
Sensitivity: 
1) Growth of the PRC civil aviation industry (air passenger traffic) = positive to key associated company, Shanghai Pudong International Airport Aviation Fuel Supply Company (“SPIA”)
2) Oil trading market conditions less favorable = negative to the Group’s trading business.

Conclusion:
1) This stock is good for the future. Growth of aviation industry in China is expected to continue for at least a couple of years. (because of globalization, and a shift of economy to Asia)
2) The intrinsic value, based on my calculation, after 20% safety margin is $1.16, the current market price is around $1.15. Any price that is above $1.16 should be avoided.
3) I will not hold this share because I don't understand aviation business and not interested to learn it.

Main content of this blog

Hi dear readers, welcome to my blog.

First of all, let me introduce myself.
I am a Malaysian Chinese, graduate of Bachelor of Degree of Electronic-Electrical Engineering at UTM by 2010. Currently am a product engineer at Singapore. Having that said, I have been working in Singapore for about 1.5 years.

Being a Gen Y working adult, I witnessed the digital revolution that changed the world and changed the way we live. For example, traditional book stores like PageOne and Borders are running out of business, in contrast to the rise of Amazon.


So, the rule of game has changed. To me, at my stage of life, the greatest take away from the Information Age is to make use of public information to do investment. In this blog, you can expect the core content will be investment, that includes stock (malaysia & singapore) market and Forex trading. The regulation of this blog will be one stock analysis per week, which will be published during weekend.

I am gratefully welcome any suggestions, questions and ideas.
