On Thursday (Jun 17, 2021) Sagicor announced a new multi-billion dollar deal, which saw them taking a major stake in an LNG power plant in Jamaica?

It’s the largest corporate financing deal in Jamaica's history, so you know it’s huge

Why would they do that? 🧵 👇 In this thread I'll discuss

• What makes this special
• What’s LNG? Is it new?
• Who’s Jamalco & what do they do?
• Who’s New Fortress (the LNG company)?

You can also read the full thing as an article here. It's long. If anything bookmark for later

Here's an interesting idea from Barbados 🇧🇧

The Barbados Gov't is in the process of developing an online platform to connect taxis and small tour operators directly to cruise ship passengers The gov't wants to help local transport operators capture a greater and fairer share of the ground tour business

Lots of companies blazing this quarter🔥
But there are others... that will need help soon

EFRESH Enters the chat

I have high hopes for EFRESH.. They import and distribute dairy products, meats🥩, seafood, fruits, veg and dry goods

They used to sell mainly to hotels ...but since the start they've had issues

Then that failed pork acquisition added to their woes
And now the pandemic

Not to mention that acquisition mix up in Bahamas

Those are all minor though.. compared to what's happening to their financials

Fosrich💡🔌⚡️👨‍🔧 continues to see strong growth in their business👏👌

✅Sales up 22% vs last year
✅Profits of $38m vs $4.8m last year

Well done.
But... ...before I state that the profit was 8 times the amount made last year this time.... the truth is... last year's profit was lower than normal

Q1 last year, profits were actually down 85% as they had to cover increased expansion costs.... not a bad move either

Jetcon has finally released their results for 2020

We don't have to say it... Management says it was one of their worst years 😖.. Unprecedented

Sales 🔻 38%
Expenses 🔻 6%
Loss of $6.7m Despite that, management says Jetcon continues to be in good financial shape, with no outstanding loans and strong inventory

Based on my calculations...
Sales are picking up as they sold over $160m in Q4 (Dec) much more than $86m in the June quarter...

Ciboney has released their results for Dec to Feb 2021

Between Dec to Feb, when we were busy pushing up they stock, they were busy paying money out, with no money coming in🤷‍♂️

They've spent J$1.9m over the last 3 months and made a loss of the same amount as they have no income They now have $4.2m in cash 💰 vs $11.9m this time last year. So just think of it as their bank balance being depleted slowly

Over the last 9 months they have spent $4.3m on expenses without any income
