i think everyone should read the BBI EPS Ltd financial report very carefully.
http://www.bbinfrastructure.com.au/media/419874/bbi eps limited annual financial report.pdf
The BEPPA hybrids are accounted for as debt in an entity that owns the ex-Alinta assets. i can't see why beppa holders should be exposed to the downside in the value of BBI's other assets(or refinancing problems for that matter)
On 31 August 2007, BBI EPS as part of a consortium with Singapore
Power and Babcock & Brown Power, acquired Alinta Limited
through a Scheme of Arrangement. From this transaction, BBI EPS
acquired a portfolio of energy transmission and distribution assets
and operations and maintenance businesses including:
• 74.1% interest in WA Gas Networks (formerly known as Alinta
Gas Networks);
• 100% ownership of Tasmania Gas Pipeline;
• 100% ownership of Alinta Asset Management – West;
• Up to 20% interest in Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline;
and
• 20.1% interest in Multinet Gas.
I can't believe that in all these months we have all been discussing BEPPA that no one focused on the fact that it had asset level claims on Alinta. I'm frustrated with myself for missing that.
