Mar 18, 2014 (LBO) - Sri Lanka's Watawala Plantations Plc said a management agreement with Estate Management Services (Pvt) Ltd, its key shareholder has been ended.

The firm said in a stock exchange filing that management fees will no longer paid the Estate Management Services and the company itself will manage it.
The management fees paid by plantations company is a legacy of a privatization process, where the fees were structured to provide cash flow to finance an indirect leveraged buyout of the firms by its managing agent.

The practice has been blamed by analysts for draining resources needed for capital expenditure.

In Sri Lanka's commercial tea plantations date back from the British colonial era where third party 'agency houses' used to charge management fees on an arm's length basis.

Sstar.Good posting. Other than WATA would you mind naming tea companies excluded from management fee or charging less?
Cheers.

"The Management fee is paid to Estate Management Services (Private) Ltd (EMSPL) in accordance with the agreement entered between WATA and Estate Management and Services (Pvt) Ltd. The basis for calculation of Management fees has been 10% of the Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA). Total management fees payable for the financial year 2012/13 is Rs.137 mn in comparison to Rs 49 mn paid in the preceding year." - Quoted.

So we can expect improvement in the EPS from 2014/2015.
