DBS Vickers July report: We reckon future fair value upgrades will be contingent on evidence of good projects execution for the Brunei Shell contract, or the groupââ¬â¢s ability to secure better revenue visibility beyond 2008. Also, better visibility on the deepwater drilling vesselââ¬â¢s financials after the expected announcement of newbuild contract for the deepwater drilling vessel before end 3Q 2008 may also be potential catalyst for fair value upgrade. Our fair value stays at S$3.49, using 15x FY08 PE. Maintain BUY on Swiber.
Hi all, I will be writing on Swiber on my blog once they release their 1H 2008 results on August 13, 2008. It\'s about time I gave an update on their business plans and financial status anyway, as per my philosophy of keeping a close watch on the businesses I own. Regards, Musicwhiz

Hi ct.leong, Sure, I will post a summary of the analysis here (just snippets). The rest of the analysis can be found on my blog once it\'s ready. I will probably need a couple of days or so to study the financials, facts and figures and all pertinent past announcements in order to come up with a comprehensive analysis. Will keep all on this thread updated once it is ready. In the meantime, wishing all a good week ahead ! :laugh: Regards, Musicwhiz
