  bojed Pantech has already broken its descending triangle's floor. If it closes lower than 0.835, there's a high probability downtrend is on its way. From what I see, there are attempts to push the price up a bit but with very little volume, followed by large selling volume, as if the push up of price is superficially done to allow selling at a favorable price. 17/08/2023 12:29 PM sense maker Pantech’s PE multiple is currently akin to steel counter at single digit but today all steel counters shot up but Pantech share price didn’t move up. 21/08/2023 5:06 PM bojed Pantech has BO from its descending channel today at 0.83. Hopefully it will close at least at this price. 23/08/2023 2:28 PM sense maker This company operates in two booming sectors: oil and palm oil. It seems to have pricing power and able to maintain EPS of at least RM0.12 a year, going forward. The company is in a position to increase dividend to RM0.08 a year. The fair value of this company lies around RM1.20. Attractive price to enter currently. 30/08/2023 11:19 AM ooihk899 Definitely going up, all time high already.😁 Sure will be above 90 sen next week, gratz to all. 02/09/2023 5:32 PM 5354_ 2023-10-06 Insider PUAN NOORAINI BINTI MOHD YASIN (a company director) disposed 10,000 shares at 0.838 on 06-Oct-2023. 2023-10-06 Insider PUAN NOORAINI BINTI MOHD YASIN (a company director) disposed 6,000 shares at 0.845 on 05-Oct-2023. 08/10/2023 5:06 AM stockraider Can buy pantech at this price loh....the earning & dividend is very good loh! 08/10/2023 11:39 AM danchong https://www.bursamalaysia.com/market_information/announcements/company_announcement/announcement_details?ann_id=3392589 I like it. It shows the company has spare cash and willing to SBB at a higher price. 17/10/2023 11:06 AM connor94 Despite the profit decline https://www.instagram.com/p/Cym9ugwyPj-/?img_index=1, Pantech made a strategic decision to maintain its dividend at RM 0.015 per share. 20/10/2023 2:50 PM danchong The EPS is up 5% QoQ. Down 9% YoY. Half Year down 4%. I don't see anything alarming. The company is not in a growing phase and they are only at optimal size with healthy earnings. The dividend payout is 3/6.7 = 45% which is very comfortable. 23/10/2023 11:51 AM ooihk899 QR no good😥, still able to maintain dividend of 1.5sen😀. Next QR should be better since Petronas has huge capex starting this year. 18/01/2024 5:30 PM Knownfact https://www.bursamalaysia.com/market_information/announcements/company_announcement/announcement_details?ann_id=3415502 19/01/2024 6:51 AM Knownfact *Results Update* *Pantech Group Holdings Berhad (5125)* *Target Price: RM1.18 (Buy)* 📌 9MFY24 core net profit came in within ours but below consensus’ expectations. 📌 The group declared a third interim dividend of 1.5 sen/share, bringing the YTD DPS to 4.5 sen. 📌 3QFY24 PBT dropped 41.8% YoY dragged by both softer demand from local O&G projects for the Trading Division as well as lower ASP and lower demand for the Manufacturing division. 📌 The group should register better performance in FY25 as the tenders for major projects such as PIPC are expected to commence in mid-2024. 📌 Reiterate Buy with an unchanged TP of RM1.18/share based on 10x CY24 EPS. https://taresearch.taonline.com.my/rrs/files/2024/1/PANTECH_RU_20240119.pdf 19/01/2024 8:39 AM Andre Kua Company has 225m cash and bank balance... only 12m in FD. They even had 205m in short term borrowings probably for buying materials. Why do they even waste the 225m when they can use it to buy materials with cash without using short term borrowings? Or at least put them in FD. If you assume short term borrowings as LC/BA/TR, at around 6% annually, they would have save millions in borrowing cost. 19/02/2024 1:34 PM ooihk899 225m might be for working capital in anticipation of huge Petronas Capex. 19/02/2024 2:20 PM Smokey Investor it's important to keep some cash and available credits especially to bid for new projects. Customersndo evaluate.the company cash flow to ensure their financial ability to take up expensive projects. Interest from loans can help to offset some taxes. it's a smart way to optimise tax. All smart biz ppl do take up loans and now you know why. 19/02/2024 5:50 PM Andre Kua ooikh889, My bad, you reminded me of how the banks are operating. If you don't use a big portion of the facilities you secured, chances are they will be downsized in near future. I just thought that they could at least at least put some of these money to better use like short term FD which could be redeemed to payoff these operating capex borrowings if necessary. 19/02/2024 8:21 PM ooihk899 Andre, I don't have the answer, you can ask the management during AGM. Or write to them and wait for their reply. I would like to know too. 19/02/2024 8:49 PM Smokey Investor Andre Kua, Loan interest is expense to P&L, that will offset the income and hence the net taxable amount is lower. make sense? 20/02/2024 5:30 PM Asria Stock [PANTECH]: PANTECH GROUP HOLDINGS BHD Announcement Date 22-Feb-2024 Listing Date 23-Feb-2024 New Type/Class?
