Ltd. (“YBC”), another indirect subsidiary of the Group, to Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd. (““K” Line”) for a total cash consideration of USD49 million pursuant to a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement executed between YAL and “K” Line on 9 July 2020. The payment of the remaining balance of the consideration, being USD44 million by “K” Line, and transfer of the minority equity interest to “K” Line (or Japan Offshore Facility Investment 1 Pte. Ltd. (“JOFI”) (a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation), at “K” Line’s option), will be executed after the final acceptance of the Marlim 2 FPSO by Petrobras and release of the financial guarantees under the associated project finance agreements, which is expected to be in financial year ending 31 January 2025. (ii) Also included in the Group’s deposits as at 31 January 2023 was an amount of RM55 million relating to a vessel exclusivity agreement with a vendor to secure a vessel. It lapsed during the current financial year and was recognised as write-back of deposit received as disclosed in Note 8. (d) Due to non-controlling interests On 11 May 2020, an indirect subsidiary of the Group issued a convertible loan of RM211 million (USD52 million) to its shareholders. RM53 million (USD13 million) of the issuance was to a minority shareholder (i.e. Japan Offshore Facility Investment 1 Pte. Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Corporation), which is proportionate to its shareholdings in the subsidiary. In accordance with the terms and conditions (depending on the prevailing gearing once the finance agreements are executed) set out in the Convertible Loan Agreement, the loan may be jointly converted into ordinary shares of the subsidiary by the shareholders on a proportionate basis. Otherwise, the loan from the minority shareholder is due for repayment in equal quarterly repayments within 2 years from the date on which the conditions as set out in the Convertible Loan Agreement are met. The loan was adjusted to its fair value upon initial recognition with the discounting effect being recognised as a capital contribution from non-controlling interests of RM8 million in the financial year ended 31 January 2021, and the loan was subsequently carried at amortised cost. As at 31 January 2024, the Group’s carrying amount of this loan, which is unsecured and interest free, was RM59 million (USD12 million) (2023: RM52 million (USD12 million)). The deemed interest expense arising from the discounting effect on the fair value of the loan recognised during the current financial year was RM2 million (2023: RM2 million). On 24 August 2021, an indirect subsidiary of the Group received interest-free loan from JOFI amounting to RM171 million (USD41 million). The loan is unsecured, repayable at the borrower’s discretion and has no fixed term of repayment. The Group expects the loan to be repaid 5 years from the date of drawdown. The loan was adjusted to its fair value upon initial recognition with the discounting effect being recognised as a capital contribution from non-controlling interests of RM30 million in the financial year ended 31 January 2022, and the loan was subsequently carried at amortised cost. As at 31 January 2024, the Group’s carrying amount of this loan was RM174 million (USD 37 million) (2023: RM151 million (USD 36 million)). The deemed interest expense arising from the discounting effect on the fair value of the loan recognised during the current financial year was RM7 million (2023: RM6 million). On 14 April 2023 and 12 May 2023, an indirect subsidiary of the Group received interest-free advances from JOFI amounting to RM47 million (USD10 million). The advances are unsecured and repayable on demand.
