UMW Oil & Gas shares sink to new low

Shares of UMW Oil & Gas Corp Bhd sank to a new low on earnings worries amid a bleak outlook for its core jack-up rigs business.

The stock fell 2 sen, or 2.2%, to close at 88.5 sen yesterday. It had tumbled 55% over the past one year.

“We maintain our ‘reduce’ rating as the outlook for jack-up rigs is weak. Our core earnings per share profit forecasts are at odds with consensus losses, and are under review,” CIMB Equities Research said in a note yesterday.

UMW Oil & Gas swung to a net loss of RM65.08mil in the first quarter to March 31, 2016, from earnings of RM32.15mil in the same quarter of last year.
