Nice. redeeming the 1st tranche allows room for growth in the stock price which together with dividends must be aimed at restoring investor confidence w/o over committing.

I would rate it as good Sign for shareholders even though I wasn't involved in the first tranche of MCBs as yet to acquire $SINGAPORE AIRLINES LTD(C6L.SI)$ into my portfolio. I view it as SIA is displaying confidence to the shareholders that since the opening of borders, air traffic has improved. Many people are eager to hop onto SIA flights again - I, being the exemptionas I only have 2 doses of covid vaccine and moreover no passport and no intention to travel too. Good excuses not to go on business trip and team building. 🤭😇🙃😊🤭🫣I have the right as an employee to reject any travelling especially this current situation. SIA can conserve its cash for other purposes but they decided to give

Cash was short for SIA and it desperately needed to raise money. But things have improved significantly for the company this year as it reported a record profit in the first half of FY23 and free cash flow was also comfortably positive.With its finances moving in the right direction, SIA’s management has decided that redeeming the airline’s first tranche of MCBs would benefit its shareholders. In this article, I explore whether the airline is making the right decision.First, is redeeming the MCBs a good use of capital?In my view, the short answer is yes. The MCBs are a costly source of capital for SIA and redeeming them early will save the company significant money.The MCBs are zero-coupon bonds but have a set annual yield that starts at 4% before rising to 5%, and then 6%. What this means is that the longer the MCBs are left unredeemed, the more expensive it becomes for SIA to redeem them in the future.Moreover, if left unredeemed for 10 years, these MCBs will automatically convert to shares. The conversion price of the shares is S$4.84 at the end of the 10-year mark, which is lower than SIA’s current share price. (A low conversion price is bad for shareholders as it means more shares are issued leading to more heavy dilution.) Bear in mind, the conversion price is not based on the principle paid. It is based on the principle plus the accumulated yield.If converted to shares, the MCBs will heavily dilute SIA’s current shareholders, leaving them with a smaller stake in the entire company.All of these lead me to conclude that redeeming the MCBs now seems like an efficient use of capital by SIA on behalf of its shareholders.But should SIA conserve cash instead?SIA has a history of producing irregular free cash flow.I looked at 15 years’ worth of financial data for SIA (starting from 2007) to calculate the total free cash flow generated by the company. In that period, SIA generated a total free cash flow of a negative S$3 billion. Yes, you read that right – negative free cash flow.In 15 years of operation, instead of generating positive cash flow that can be returned to shareholders, SIA actually expended cash.This is mostly due to the high capital expense of maintaining its aircraft fleet. Capital expenditure for the expansion of SIA’s business was only S$5.6 billion, meaning the value of its fleet only increased by S$5.6 billion.I say “only” because even if I exclude the expansion capital expenditure, SIA only generated S$2.6 billion in total free cash flow over 15 years. This is an average free cash flow of just S$174 million per year. Keep in mind that this free cash flow was generated off of a sizeable net PPE (plant, property, and equipment) base of around S$14 billion in 2007. The free cash flow generated is a pretty meagre return on assets.What this shows is that SIA is a business that struggles to generate cash even if it is not actively expanding its fleet. This said, SIA does have a significant amount of cash on hand now.With the cash raised over the past two years and the strong rebound in operations, SIA exited the September quarter this year with S$17.5 billion in cash. Redeeming its first tranche of MCBs will cost SIA around S$3.8 billion, around a fifth of its current cash balance.The airline also has a relatively young fleet of planes now, which means its net capital expenditure requirement for maintenance is going to be relatively low in the near future, which should lead to higher free cash flows in the next few years.And with the global recovery in air travel as countries around the world get a better handle on COVID-19, SIA’s operating cash flow is also likely to remain positive this year.As such, I think it is fair to say that SIA does have the resources to retire the first tranche of its MCBs pretty comfortably despite its business’s poor historical ability to generate cash.Can it retire the 2021 tranche of MCBs?This brings us to the next question: Can SIA retire the second tranche of its MCBs which were issued in 2021? To recap, besides the S$3.5 billion raised in 2020 via the issuance of MCBs, SIA raised a further S$6.5 billion through this second tranche of MCBs in 2021.Including interest, the total outlay to redeem the second tranche of MCBs will be slightly more than $6.5 billion (depending on when exactly SIA redeems the MCBs).After redeeming the first tranche of its MCBs, SIA will be left with S$13.7 billion in cash. But the airline also has S$15.8 billion in debt (including long-term liabilities), which means it will have net debt (more debt than cash) of around $2.1 billion.Bear in mind that the MCBs are not considered debt according to SIA’s books. Instead, they are considered equity as they have a feature where they are “mandatorily converted” in 10 years. So the debt on SIA’s balance sheet are additional borrowings which will eventually need to be repaid or refinanced. Given the small net cash position, I don’t think SIA should stretch its balance sheet to pay back the second tranche of MCBs yet.SIA executives should also have wisened up to the fact that the company should keep some cash in its coffers to avoid another situation where they have to raise capital through the issuance of stock at heavily discounted prices (which happened during COVID-19) or through borrowing at usurious terms. A secondary offering or expensive debt in troubled times will be much more costly to shareholders than the MCBs.The bottom lineAll things considered, I think it is a good move by SIA’s management to redeem the first trance of the airline’s MCBs. The MCBs are an expensive source of capital and retiring them early will benefit SIA’s shareholders. The airline is also in a comfortable financial position to do so.But the second tranche of MCBs is a different story altogether. After redeeming the first trance, and given SIA’s history of lumpy and meagre cash flow generation, I don’t think management will be willing to stretch its balance sheet to redeem the second tranche of MCBs just yet.It is worth mentioning that SIA also decided to start paying a dividend again. I would have thought that management would prefer to retire the airline’s second tranche of MCBs before dishing out excess cash to shareholders.One needs to remember that despite its poor cash flow generation in the past 15 years, SIA still paid dividends nearly every year. In hindsight, this was a mistake by management as the distributed cash would have been better off accumulated on the airline’s balance sheet to tide it through tough times such as during the COVID pandemic.Ultimately, SIA paid dividends in the past 15 years, only to claw back all of the money (and more) from shareholders by issuing shares in 2020. This was certainly a case of one step forward, two steps back, for shareholders. Let’s hope for the sake of shareholders that history doesn’t repeat itself.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":null,"is_publish_highlight":null,"is_publish_live":null,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":9963956031,"gmtCreate":1668572777224,"gmtModify":1676538078562,"author":{"id":"4106309378680090","authorId":"4106309378680090","name":"_dachad","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/e6856c1f1ee94253ef9a7fa17811e96c","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0},"htmlText":"Nice.&nbsp;&nbsp;redeeming
