Concordo com o jonaspel, esse é o local mais apropriado para isso, chat pode ser complementar.
Então, aí vai o que recebi:
Focused on inventory sales and lease of EZTower
EZTec acknowledges the tougher scenario, but is confident it can thrive
EZTec hosted its public meeting last Friday, in which discussions were mainly
centered on:
(i) the company’s competitive advantages vis-à-vis peers (verticalization,
unlevered balance sheet, bottom-line oriented), which should prove to be even more
important in enduring the sector’s downturn (oversupply and weak housing demand);
and,
(ii) the initiatives being put forward to face this backdrop (improving internal
controls, reducing construction costs and minimizing sales cancellations).
Inventory sale is the main priority; Launches to remain in check until 1H16
Management said that new launches are unlikely in the near term, at least until an
inflection point is more visible and/or inventory levels fall to more adequate levels (in
which sales campaigns could play a major role). In fact, the company said inventory
sales fared better in Q4 (q/q), partly explained by its more aggressive stance in terms
of discounts. Management believes gross margin may suffer a bit (but should still
remain above 50%, mainly due to gains related to lower construction costs).
EZ Tower B to be leased rather than sold; ROE could suffer with bloated capital
EZTec said that, at this juncture, it would not make sense to sell EZ Tower B. Instead,
management intends to lease the building (with the help of a third-party advisor) and
assume its administration. Of note, the restriction on leasing EZ Tower B expired last
month. In terms of capital structure, EZTec expects to hoard more cash in the shortterm
(minimum payout ratio of 25%), due to the sector’s poor visibility, even though it
recognizes this could be detrimental for capital remuneration (lower ROEs).
