1H expected to be breakeven PAT [positive EBIDTA] but 2H profitable on lower borrowing costs. And 2014 will be time to sell the firm or look for a strategic investor.
@hisah I am a buyer and on fundamentals. And thankfully managed to acquire small lots when I can. I will miss Segman but he has laid the groundwork for the future that Ohana is building on.
1) Property/Asset sales of $40mn in 2013/14 expected according to the Management [see Annual Report & discussions at the AGM] and proceeds to lower debt.
2) No more dividends until the debt is significantly reduced.
3) Dumping unprofitable (low profit) lines of business including aviation, fuel oil & bitumen unless payments are assured or in cash.
4) Re-focus on lines of business without price controls.
If Ohana can't show progress in 9 months i.e. release of 2H 2013 results as well as a positive update on 1Q 2014 operations then time to say bye-bye.
