LNGRES - PROVISION OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE

Announcement Type: General Announcement
Company NameLNG RESOURCES BERHAD (ACE Market) 
Stock Name LNGRES  
Date Announced31 May 2013  
CategoryGeneral Announcement
Reference NoCA-130528-46852

TypeAnnouncement
SubjectPROVISION OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
DescriptionLNG RESOURCES BERHAD (“LNGRES” or the “Company”)
• Quarterly Disclosures on Provision of Financial Assistance by Oriental Fastech Manufacturing Sdn. Bhd. (“OFM”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of LNGRES

1. Introduction

Pursuant to Rule 8.25(1)(ii) and the Guidance Note 4 of the Bursa Securities ACE Market Listing Requirements, the Board of Directors of LNGRES wishes to update on the status of financial assistance provided by OFM, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LNGRES, to Miho Technology Sdn. Bhd. (“MIHO”) as follows:-

Type of Financial Assistance

Aggregate Amount granted during the quarter ended
March 31, 2013

Outstanding amount due by MIHO as at March 31, 2013

Advances by OFM to MIHO as business start up cost and daily operation cost on an interest free basis.

RM NIL

RM939,850

2. Rationale

MIHO is principally involved in the provision of plating services and is a supplier of surface finishing services to OFM. The financial assistance was provided by OFM to MIHO from December 2011 to September 2012 for its business start up cost and daily operation cost as OFM wanted to support a dedicated supplier to meet its surface finishing needs. Surface finishing is an important production process to OFM as it manufactures contact points for telecommunication devices such as walkie talkies that require gold electroplating.

In view of the aforesaid financial assistance extended by OFM, MIHO will in turn provide surface finishing services on an exclusive basis to OFM. MIHO will also give a discounted price from market rate for all its surface finishing services to OFM. With the discount and also the production capacity commitment given by MIHO to OFM, the support by MIHO to OFM will assist OFM to continue to be competitive and ensure its product delivery commitment to its customers.

3. Risk Factors

As at September 30, 2012, OFM had ceased to provide further financial assistance to MIHO. MIHO had started repayment since the 4th Quarter of 2012 and the management of OFM had received an Undertaking Letter dated May 28, 2013 from MIHO to settle the amount outstanding by July 2013.

4. Approvals Required

The provision of financial assistance is not subject to the approval of the shareholders of LNGRES and any approvals from the relevant authorities.

5. Financial Effects

The provision of the said financial assistance does not have any material financial effect to the net assets, earnings per share, gearing, share capital and substantial shareholders’ shareholding in LNGRES Group for the financial period ended March 31, 2013.

6. Directors and Substantial Shareholders’ Interest

Mr. Yong Chan Cheah and Mr. Yong Swee Chuan, who are major shareholders of LNGRES and directors of OFM, were interested in the provision of financial assistance since February 6, 2013 when they became major shareholders of LNGRES, by virtue of Mr. Chew Tin Hor (a Director and the major shareholder of MIHO) being the spouse of their sister.

As at todate, none of the Directors and/or major shareholders of LNGRES and/or persons connected with them, has any interest, direct or indirect, in the provision of financial assistance as Mr Chew Tin Hor has ceased as a Director and major shareholder of MIHO as at May 27, 2013.

7. Statement by the Board of Directors

The financial assistance to MIHO existed prior to the acquisition of OFM by LNGRES, and the Board is of the opinion that it is in the best interest of the Group that the financial assistance be terminated. As such, MIHO has provided an Undertaking Letter to OFM to settle the outstanding amount by July 2013.

8. Departure from Policies and Guidelines on Issue/Offer of Securities of the Securities Commission (“Guidelines”)

To the best knowledge of the Board, the provision of financial assistance has not departed from the Guidelines.
