DescriptionDISPOSAL OF VESSEL

INTRODUCTION

 

Our Board of Directors (“Board”) wishes to announce that Icon Ship Management Sdn. Bhd. our wholly owned subsidiary, recently entered into a memorandum of agreement (“MOA”) to dispose of a vessel to Hadi Hamad Al-Hammam Est., Marine Services, a company incorporated in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, for a total cash consideration of USD3,880,000.00 (“Sale Consideration”) (“Proposed Disposal”).

 

 

DETAILS OF THE VESSEL

 

Tanjung Manis (the “Vessel”) is one of our vessels classified as a utility vessel (“UV”). It is a much smaller version of the straight supply vessel but without cargo tanks for drilling fluids or cement. UVs primarily operate in shallow water and are typically used to transport deck cargo, fuel, fresh water, food provision and personnel. The Vessel was built in year 2005 with 3,484 brake horse power.

 

 

BASIS OF ARRIVING AT THE SALE CONSIDERATION

 

The Sale Consideration was arrived at on an arm’s length basis in line with the current market price for such type of vessel. The payment terms of the Proposed Disposal are in the following manner:

  1. The Sale Consideration minus the amount of the deposit amounting to USD388,000.00 shall be paid in full free of bank charges to the escrow agent for the purposes of on-payment by the escrow agent on delivery of the Vessel, but not later than 3 banking days after the Vessel is in every respect physically ready for delivery in accordance with the terms and conditions of the MOA; and
  2. Notice of Readiness has been given.

 

COMPLETION OF PROPOSED DISPOSAL

 

The Proposed Disposal is expected to be completed by the end of third quarter 2014.

 

 

APPROVALS REQUIRED

 

None required.

 

 

RATIONALE

 

The Proposed Disposal is in line with our fleet renewal programme where we expect to replace some of our lower specification vessels with vessels that have greater engine capacity and which are equipped with dynamic positioning capabilities to ensure that our fleet is up-to-date and have the capability to operate in harsher weather conditions and deeper waters, in order to manage our fleet portfolio into optimal fleet size, age and composition.

 

 

FINANCIAL EFFECTS

The Proposed Disposal is not expected to have any material effect on the earnings and net assets of the Company. Notwithstanding this, the disposal of the Vessel is not expected to have any effects on the share capital and shareholding structure of the Company.

 

DIRECTORS' AND SHAREHOLDERS' INTEREST 

 

None of the Directors, major shareholders of ICON and/or persons connected with the Directors or its subsidiaries has any interest, direct or indirect in the Proposed Disposal.

DescriptionACQUISITION OF ONE (1) ACCOMMODATION WORK BOAT

INTRODUCTION

 

Our Board of Directors (“Board”) is pleased to announce that Icon Kayra (L) Inc, our wholly-owned subsidiary, had on 6 August 2014 completed the acquisition of one (1) accommodation work boat (“AWB”), SK Line 600 (“Vessel”) from Nam Cheong International Ltd (“Acquisition”) for a purchase consideration amounting to USD30.0 million equivalent to RM95.7 million only.

 

 

DETAILS OF THE VESSEL

 

The Vessel has a maximum deadweight of approximately 3,500 tonne, equipped with a dynamic positioning system to class requirement for DPS-2 notation (“DP2”) and a four-point mooring system. It can accommodate up to 200 passengers. It is also equipped with a 50-tonne crane as well as approximately 1,000msq of clear deck space for carrying out maintenance or construction of equipment.

 

 

APPROVALS REQUIRED

 

None required.

 

 

RATIONALE

 

The Vessel is our first AWB for our fleet. The Acquisition is in line with our fleet expansion programme where we expect to selectively diversify our fleet composition to enable us to manage our fleet according to our customers’ requirements and capture growth potential in the industry, as well as to move up the offshore support vessel value chain by adding vessels to our fleet that are equipped with DP2 to be able to operate and provide marine support services in harsher weather conditions and deeper waters.

 

  

FINANCIAL EFFECTS

 

The Acquisition is not expected to have any effects on the share capital and shareholding structure of our Company and no material effect on the net assets of our company. However, the Acquisition is expected to contribute positively to the earnings of our group of companies for the financial year ending 31 December 2014 and beyond.

 

 

DIRECTORS' AND SHAREHOLDERS' INTEREST

 

None of the Directors, major shareholders of ICON and/or persons connected with the Directors or its subsidiaries has any interest, direct or indirect in the Acquisition.

ICON - OTHERS TEMPORARY VARIATION TO THE UTILISATION OF INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING PROCEEDS

Announcement Type: General Announcement
Company NameICON OFFSHORE BERHAD  
Stock Name ICON  
Date Announced8 Aug 2014  
CategoryGeneral Announcement
Reference NoIO-140807-67054

SubjectOTHERS
DescriptionTEMPORARY VARIATION TO THE UTILISATION OF INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING PROCEEDS

(Capitalised terms used in this announcement shall have the same meanings as those used in the Prospectus dated 30 May 2014 issued by the Company (“Prospectus”), unless otherwise stated)

INTRODUCTION

ICON was listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad on 25 June 2014 after an Offer for Sale of approximately 289.02 million Offer Shares and the Public Issue of approximately 221.75 million Issue Shares (“IPO”). Total gross proceeds of approximately RM410.23 million were raised from the Public Issue.

As disclosed in Section 4.9 of the Prospectus, out of the total gross proceeds raised from the Public Issue, a total amount of RM166.2 million or 40.5% is allocated for expansion of our fleet based on the identified four (4) vessels described in the Prospectus.

DETAILS OF THE VARIATION

Our Board of Directors (“Board”) wishes to announce that it has approved a temporary variation to the utilisation of part of our IPO proceeds earmarked for the abovementioned fleet expansion amounting to approximately RM86.4 million to settle the remaining acquisition consideration for an Accommodation Work Boat,  SK Line 600 ( “Vessel”) by Icon Kayra (L) Inc, our wholly owned subsidiary, representing approximately 21% of the IPO proceeds. The settlement of the remaining acquisition consideration for the Vessel would provide us greater flexibility in structuring our financing based on our business needs.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Vessel was not identified as one of the four (4) vessels which were meant to be partly funded by our IPO proceeds as disclosed in Section 4.9 of the Prospectus. The prior arrangement for the funding of the remaining acquisition consideration for the Vessel is via borrowings from a domestic bank.

This is only a temporary arrangement for a period of up to six (6) months from the date of this announcement until we obtain the necessary and more appropriate funding for the Vessel which partly depends on the potential charter contract for the Vessel. Once the said funds are in place, we will again have the same amount of proceeds to be utilised for our vessel fleet expansion plan in the manner disclosed in the Prospectus.

RATIONALE

The temporary utilisation of the IPO proceeds for this purpose will allow our Company to enjoy cost savings of approximately RM1.0 million in the form of structuring/commitment fees and legal fees compared to a drawdown of the loan from the aforesaid domestic bank at the point of settlement of the remaining acquisition price of the Vessel.

DIRECTORS’ STATEMENT

Our Board is of the opinion that the temporary revision to the utilisation of IPO proceeds will not have any adverse effect on the future plans of the Company and will not be detrimental to the Company’s business operations.

Our Company shall continue to be vigilant and prudent in managing our IPO proceeds and will continue to disclose the status of the utilisation in our quarterly and annual reports until it is fully utilised.

This announcement is dated 8 August 2014.
