Personal Opinion:
-Keyfield is one of the offshore support vessel companies that includes all ships, boats, or barges that are specially designed to perform specific offshore operational activities for the upstream oil and gas industry is an advantage to generating sustainable profit.
-Keyfield has surged more than 100% from its IPO price, with an opening price of RM1.73 during the listing day, however, the current trend can be seen as a driving momentum from the continuous business expansion.
-As compared to other offshore fleets, Keyfield has stronger financial fundamentals (can refer to its IPO prospectus for the details).
-The purchase of 2 AWB will further enhance its core business, which may further translate it into a lower value of PER, a higher value of gearing ratio, etc.
