Arpeni rating possibly worsening: Management targets transportation contract for 3-5 million tons of coal
JAKARTA: PT Arpeni Ocean Line Tbk failed to pay the global bond coupon for the second time on May 3. Research conducted by PT Fitch Ratings Indonesia shows the coupon is worth US$6 million.
The research also shows the bond rating is potentially to be degraded to RD level if the company fails to pay the bonds within 30 days. The company still has grace period since the due date of coupon payment on May 3.
"The internal cash growth of Arpeni shows discomfort in relation to the corporate ability to pay the coupon on the grace period," said Director of Corporate Ratings Fitch team Buddhika Piyasena on the research published yesterday.
Formerly, the company could pay the same bound coupon December 2009 but the rating was not degraded as it could pay during the grace period.
Arpeni finance is worsening due to the highly indebtedness, derivative contract cost crystallization, and corporate reserve cash placement worth US$25 million as the collateral bank obligation and relevant creditors to the debt and low operational income.
He recorded the company has US$12 million cash reserves last year showing that the emitter finance did not have any significant performance from last year.
Formerly, PT Pemeringkat Efek Indonesia (Pefindo) also set CCC, credit watch, rating and thus had negative implication to the Arpeni Pratama Ocean Line II/2008 bonds worth IDR600 billion.
In public expose to IDX April 16, Pefindo was stated to give CCC rating to the medium term notes sharia II/2008 worth IDR150 billion.
The rating company set the selected default (SD) rating to PT Arpeni Pratama Ocean Line Tbk (APOL) on 12 April-12 July 2010.
Arpeni Line booked IDR670.61 billion net losses last year or dropped by 6.867 percent as from IDR9.92 billion net profits in 2008.

Arpeni projected to tap coal transportation contract worth US$50-75 million or 3-5 million tons in 2010.
He said there are some coal transportation projects that are projected to be gained by the company this year.
