Scorpio Tankers (NYSE:STNG) had declared $0.01/share quarterly dividend, in line with previous.

Payable Dec. 28; for shareholders of record Dec. 13; ex-div Dec. 12.

[benfrankledger]

Scorpio Tankers (STNG -0.6%) holds up well despite pricing its 30M-share public offering at $3/share; shares fell nearly 5% in after-hours trading following disclosure of the offering.

[benfrankledger]

STNG, which was already heavily leveraged to the product tanker spot market when the acquired the Navig8 product tanker fleet this summer, is increasing the reward for an improvement in the market but also increasing the risk if such an improvement were to take more time to materialize.

But the firm remains long the shares, believing the supply/demand for the product tanker market remains poised for an inflection point and STNG is the favorite pure play on the space.

[benfrankledger]

Stifel analysts reduce their STNG price target to $6 from $7, saying the company is "playing defense" in trying to bolster the balance sheet and liquidity ahead of a heavy debt repayment schedule (source: Briefing.com).

[benfrankledger]

Scorpio Tankers (STNG -0.6%) holds up well despite pricing its 30M-share public offering at $3/share; shares fell nearly 5% in after-hours trading following disclosure of the offering.

[benfrankledger]

STNG says its LR2 segment has been outperforming all other clean tanker sectors so far in the current quarter, with time charter earnings of ~$16.5K/day for 60% of the days, up 28% compared with Q3.

[benfrankledger]

"Current spot markets are stronger than the guidance we've been given for the fourth quarter... we would have not gone through the effort of acquiring the Navig8 fleet without being bullish," STNG President Robert Bugbee said.

[benfrankledger]

Scorpio Tankers is optimistic about its consolidation with Navig8 Product Tankers, as OPEC's surprising discipline is leading to significant global destocking and U.S. Gulf Coast refined product exports have restarted after Hurricane Harvey, the company said in its earnings conference call.

[benfrankledger]

UBS sees oversupply risk as very low due to shipyard capacity reductions and a substantial amount of capital and lending that has left the shipping sector, and .the inflection point driving freight rates back toward average levels.

[benfrankledger]

UBS thinks fundamental signals are pointing in a positive direction ahead of a 2018 inflection point, as product tanker demand is expected to grow 3% and outpace supply growth of 2.8%.

[benfrankledger]

Scorpio Tankers (STNG -1%) is upgraded to Buy from Neutral with a $5.50 price target, raised from $4.50, at UBS, which says the company could benefit from a looming supply-demand inflection point for product tankers in 2018.

whats going on here?

[geodan]

yep. Do see it's on year lows. I went into CPLP which worked out well. But maybe STNG worth another look.

[SmartMoney247]

Market loves it!HEAVY Volume too,ReplacementDivvyStock,ESOA

I sold the STNG bot last week in 3.60s for 3.98, keeping rest.


T, if you want a high divvy check out ESOA

3% divvy,sellingAT BOOK,DoublesEarnings,InRightSpot

Everything is right about ESOA, pipelines in growing areas +gov infrastructure. Q out today.

[tsoprano-1]

I agree.

[value1008]

I, too, was surprised-- probably the slashed divi makes this company less risky, and the announcement of shares repurchased, and debt covenants looking okay has reassured the mkt that STNG will survive this era of depressed shipping rates and s/price will bounce back robustly whenever shipping rates improve.

[tsoprano-1]

Now there is an unexpected result, up .50 so far. Nice.

T

[value1008]

Q4 and yearly results posted; not quite as bad as analysts had predicted, but dividend was slashed for Q1 to just $0.01. Pre-mkt trading was very briefly down to lower $3.20s, but now back up to $3.40s. Obviously any investor in STNG and other shippers is looking forward to at least late 2017 or, more likely, 2018, when these names should skyrocket on (hopefully) better supply/demand dynamics.

[tsoprano-1]

Thanks, I agree. Hoping to get a dividend announcement next week. Of course, they could suspend one q to enhance balance sheet. But that could be an opportunity.

STNG presentation and last4Qs,TripleIsInOrder


The table below shows the preliminary results and recent trends for key metrics such as revenues and net income growth:

2016-09-30 2016-06-30 2016-03-31 2015-12-31 2015-09-30
Relevant Numbers (Quarterly)
Revenues (mil) 114.34 137.21 165.13 178.4 228.14
Revenue Growth (%YOY) -49.88 -27.19 2.75 41.88 175.23
Earnings (mil) -27.12 3.85 28.03 34.21 85.25

So basically STNG grew like a weed for 3 years, then in 2016 has had lower sales 4 Qs in a row and in last Q lost money for first time.

http://www.scorpiotankers.com/corporate-presentations the newest one on that list shows they have newest fleet in the world with best fuel economy and lowest polution. That older tankers are being scrapped by others.

Their fleet is about 2 years old! and huge. And they are building more. That means going forward they will be the low cost leader in terms of operating costs. So unless they go broke they will prosper going forward. Being banks just gave them more money JMHO they will not go broke. In 2010, 2011, 2013, 2014 and 2015 they traded over $10 a share during a portion of those years.

Revenue 12/31/2015 12/31/2014 12/31/2013
Total Revenue 755,711 342,807 207,580
Cost of Revenue 174,556 78,823 40,204
Gross Profit 581,155 263,984 167,376

In 2016 they have much more revenue that in either 2013 or 2014, when it traded over $10. We are at $3.58 now. A stock triple seems in order as this cycle low will come to an end like prior one did.

[tsoprano-1]

In response to your message on BWMG board(I am only allowed 1 post per day per board):
I agree, I had a good day too. Of course, BWMG up 40% helps.

T

[geodan]

Do not know, but the money does not disappear, no divvy more cash on balance sheet.

I bot a few more today. At all time low, at .42 times Book. And econ in China is going up.

[tsoprano-1]

Geo, how confident are you that we will see a dividend? No announcement yet. Have a little liquidity and was thinking STNG, but a div cut could be real bad. So I thought I would check in with the oracle. What do you think?

T

[tsoprano-1]

Joined you with some yesterday at 3.73. Hoping for a pop when div info is announced. Of course, if they cut div we will be able to buy even more at cheaper prices. Not hoping for that, though.

T

[geodan]

bot more 3.93 just see no reason for this drop.

[geodan]

within 10% of low now. Oh well

[tsoprano-1]

Thanks, did not see that. But, you are probably right about it bringing down sector.

T

[newmoon4]

NAT cut its dividend yesterday. Probably brought the sector down.

[geodan]

I was surprised at drop today, see no reason for it. The recent news is this:

08:02 AM EST, 01/19/2017 (MT Newswires) -- Scorpio Tankers(STNG) said early Friday it has secured commitments for a loan facility of up to $172 million from a group of financial institutions.

The loan facility, which comprises multiple tranches, will be used to finance up to 60% of the market value of eight MR product tankers under construction at Hyundai Mipo Dockyard. The tankers are scheduled for delivery in 2017 and 2018.

The maturity date of each tranche is between six and 12 years from its respective drawdown date, and the facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a blended margin of 2.02% per annum.

The group of lenders include the Macquarie Bank in London, DekaBank Deutsche Girozentrale, The Export-Import Bank of Korea and Garanti-Instituttet for Eksportkreditt, the company said in a statement.


Which indicates they are expanding and the banks trust in their future. Its strange that it dropped today.

[tsoprano-1]

Geo, what do you think, buying opp down here or is there good reason for dip? I have not seen any PRs or articles saying anything bad. Are rates going down for shippers?

T

[tsoprano-1]

Agreed. One of those to stick in a drawer and leave for a year or two.

T

[geodan]

STNG looks great on chart, cup and handle breakout today, good value great divvy

[geodan]

Merry Christmas T. Yes STNG looks like winner, plus great divvy.

Have you checked out FCHS? Did writeup on it on its board here, best growth stock know of.
