With the japanese -ve interest rates policy, will SSC get to borrow at a lower rate from japan banks, especially if charterer is NYK?
Hopefully they can buy a modern RORO ship in distressed sale prices :-)
Negative rate is likely to be neutral for ssc as interest rate and chartering rates are pre set in contracts.
At this junction,shareholders can't complain much about the business direction undertake by Ow,trade upside for stability in earning is the name of the game in a shipping crisis worse than 2008 gfc

DPS
FY2014 = SGD 1.0 cent
FY2015 = SGD 1.0 cent
FY2016 = ????????????
Comments:
1) 9M2016 revenue, NPAT and OCF already exceeded that of FY2015, with full charter income from the 3 vessels.
2) Agency and logistics business will remain profitable, albeit challenging.
3) Quarterly revenue from ship owning seemed stabilized at 9.209 m.
4) The group has generated OCF of 20.225 m in 9M2016, more than enough to cover (yearly repayment of bank borrowing + interest payment + dividend payment) of about 18 m, with excess OCF available for investment (acquisition of more vessels.)
5) Given its strong cash position, the Group is ready to undertake further acquisitions should any of the opportunities meet our investment criteria.

> Negative rate is likely to be neutral for ssc as interest rate and chartering rates are pre set in contracts
Boss, I am referring to chartering contracts that come with additional ships that they buy. The japanese bank will probably offer lower rate with -ve interest rates esp with the stability of 200-yr multiple business of NYK shipping.
If they can repeat the feat of buying a vessel for half price from any distressed seller and NYK wants the ship. Then the sky will be the limit.
My only question is the Loan rate for long-term and the exchange rate. Does the jap bank agree to fix rate for a 10 yr charter?

In theory, the Group can safely pay up 2.5 SG cents dividend annually. But, since they intend to double the fleet in 3 years, I wonder would the Management consider increasing the dividend to 1.5 cents?

I no boss lah,I suspect the price of roro with a yum long term contract
Might have gone up since the cost of financing is coming down due to
Neg rates
The bank could fixed the borrow rate for a long time as in this case nyk as original deal generator given the lower risk. They could package the loan to investor which are willing to take any yield higher than the negative rates,in the process making a safe spread from the loan

And this is the time for growth for RORO industry. New CEO has got something to prove, double fleet in next 3 years.
So I dont think he will increase the dividend for now.

Roro rate has been consistently high in this bloody shipping environment. I wonder why the economic so different? Is it sustainable? Too good to be true?
My views are your Gilbert & Sullivan's:

Japanese look after Japanese,the brotherly love thingy,senior Ow been Chairperson of Mitsui&co singapore helps in that regards
most of the roro would have secure a long term contract with a car or truck manufacturer before they build new ship. Those who try doing spot on roro die cock stand. You can ship anything using a container but you can't ship anything with a roro thus a less popular choice of ships for speculators to build. It is how it works,got contract build,no contract no go(for most shippers doing roro)
Cut the long story short,in doing business with Japanese,it is upmost relationship first,price secondary to an extent
