Geo Energy announces cash proceeds of US$18 mil, represents recovery from previous failed commercial agreements
The group expects this cash proceeds to contribute positively to its cash position for the FY2024.
Geo Energy Resources announces cash proceeds and gain of US$18 million ($24.4 million), which will contribute to its cash position for the FY2024 after it signed a sale and purchase agreement to sell certain creditors rights to funds managed by OCP Asia.
The group says that these creditors’ rights relate to fully provided outstanding receivables from Titan Infra Energy and Jaya Utama Indonesia.
The conditional sale represents a recovery of approximately 67% of the remaining unrepaid and outstanding receivables of US$26.85 million.
Back in 2019, Geo Energy made total collective payments of US$35 million under certain commercial agreements, including for coal purchases in Indonesia. These agreements were terminated due to certain conditions being unfulfilled by counterparties, according to the release.
At present, the full provisions on these outstanding balances and its accrued interests have been made by the group as at Dec 31, 2022.
Geo Energy’s executive chairman and CEO Charles Antonny Melati says: “Over the past few years, our team has been working diligently in the recovery of these outstanding balances by undertaking various initiatives and exploring other endeavours.”
He expects the US$18 million in cash proceeds to provide “financial certainty” in the group’s cash flow.
As at 10.24am, shares in Geo Energy are trading flat at 30.5 cents.
