It is clear that a substantial portion of its liabilities are hedged at a low 3.2368 exchange rate. Yes, Airasia will take some losses in forex, but most of them are book numbers - it will be reversed in the event MYR strengthens.
Also, some may think that all transactions for Airasia is in MYR. It is not. They have Renminbi, Thai Baht, USD, AUD, SGD etc. Airasia is not a domestic business only. MYR comprise of perhaps around 40%. Hence, that is already balanced by the hedge.
What about future planes? Other airlines that compete against Airasia face the same thing. So, they will increase price as well - hence evened out. This is not like MAS, SIA, Qatar, Lion Air are buying in their own currencies but Airasia is doing it in USD.
What could even be positive for Airasia is in the event it sells its leasing arm - that is in USD, would even translate to even bigger profits for Airasia and this is real number as I do not think it is even provided for anywhere.

HI Jack
To me it is not so interesting anymore although it is below book value. The businesses are unlike previous. Until it is able to have a good business, it may not be interesting anymore.
However for those who are looking for a company below book value, it is below book value.

You may need someone experienced to guide you through the trading procedures before embarking on the real trade. Alternatively reading literature from some of the https://www.7binaryoptions.com/iqoption-review/ traders and brokers can give you a head start in this trade. Any new trader is also required to use dummy account to understand how the trade is carried out; it is only after one has grasped the concept and is ready to start trading using real money.
It is really a helpful blog to find some different sources to add my knowledge. I came into aware of the new professional blog and I am impressed with the suggestions of the author.
