Quoted from the QR:

For the third quarter ended 31 March 2020 ("3QFY2020"), revenue increased by 16.5% in comparison to the third quarter in the
preceding year, anchored by a 15.9% higher contribution from the Sexual Wellness segment. This has partly been attributable to
the completion of the final social audits, allowing customers from both Tenders and Commercial segments to place orders to
replenish previously depleted stocks.

The recent Movement Control Order in Malaysia restricted our facilities from operating at full capacity causing idle operational
expenses which pressured the profitability during the quarter. Profit before tax for the quarter stood at RM 32,000 and loss after
tax for the quarter stood at RM 353,000 after the provision on tax for profitable subsidiaries.

You close your factory for 10 days while still paying your bills of course lah going to be bad. Why people so surprise?? What else did you expect?? I already pointed this out weeks ago. Karex CEO also said it was going to be difficult to restart their factories...If don't want listen to me, sure. But him also you high chasers dont listen, you better go buy unit trust only lh for your own sake.

Sales being higher compared to 3rd quarter previous from year is not a big achievement. During the previous year quarter, Karex was involved in scandal involving misstreatment of its foreign factory workers. This caused its clients to suspend orders.

But on average, revenue have been growing for years. Whether that will continue, especially now with the pandemic and looming worldwide recession is yet to be seen. My worry is that there is going to be a significant decline in tender markets sales. It's likely that Gov funded NGO (biggest client for their sales in the tender marker) are going to be buying less condoms because the government who funds them will provide less funding. In the last annual report, it was already stated that this was already happening.

I feel they did better... revenue and cost of product increased but more importantly gross profit also increase despite the mco shut down. Imagine if mco shut down did not occur, their gross profit will be even higher

Their revenue increase means they did not loose market share during their social compliance audit period.

They recently went into Thailand and singapore do admin and marketing cost Will go up.

Tender market will no doubt suffer due to Covid But their strategy of moving into OBM and commercial segment is paying off.

Their products r actually not bad according to reviews on the internet

@Tryingtogetrich

Hmm, revenue must have increased due to higher ASP as mentioned by HLBank, leading to better gross margin. This is probably because condom factories in China were closed during the Jan-March period. But now that china has reopened, the ASP should decrease. So I dont think the margin will last long, especially if we're expecting a decline in tender market demand due to government shifting resources to handle covid-19.

OBM have been increasing, but it's still only about 20% of total revenue. And most of the gains in their OBM are pro forma gains from acquisitions. Their organic growth is pretty slow. It also has yet to reach scale for it to be profitable. Their expansion into Thailand & Singapore happened only recently (Dec 2019). So I think it's still too early to tell whether it'll be successful. Branding is difficult and expensive. Even Karex CEO told investors it's going to take years for its OBM to segment to be profitable, they're in it for the long term. Thats assuming it'll ever be profitable.

Let's see the tug of war between the optimist and pessimist next week, they will strike a balance at some point and that would be a good entry point for those who wish buy and a good dumping point for those who wish to abort.
Or there could be a third scenario .... let's wait and see.

I think they made an excellent decision few years ago to enter into the OBM segment.

The Tender segment is going down hill and will continue to do so as HIV is no long a prominent concern by various government or NGO

They r the BIGGEST condom producer in the WORLD. How many of these biggest in the world company can we find in Malaysia ?

KUALA LUMPUR: Green Packet Bhd memeterai perjanjian dengan Persekutuan Persatuan Lembaga Pengurus Sekolah Cina Malaysia (Dong Zong) untuk pemasangan alat pengimbas haba KipleLive di 63 Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (SJK) Cina di seluruh negara.

Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif KipleLive, Ti Lian Seng, berkata alat pengimbas haba itu membolehkan pentadbir sekolah melakukan pemeriksaan pantas dan melakukan prosedur operasi standard yang diperlukan untuk mengasingkan individu berisiko dengan secepat mungkin.

"Mulai minggu ini, Green Packet akan memasang alat pengimbas haba KipleLive di sekolah yang terletak di Lembah Klang, dan dalam tempoh dua minggu akan datang, alat pengimbas itu akan dipasang sepenuhnya di semua 63 sekolah termasuk yang di Sabah dan Sarawak," katanya dalam satu kenyataan hari ini.

Ti berkata, KipleLive menggunakan teknologi kecerdasan buatan (AI) dan pengecaman wajah, ditambah dengan aplikasi digitalnya.

"Hasilnya adalah penyelesaian yang akan memberi keselesaan kepada semua pihak berkepentingan untuk membuka semula sekolah dengan cara yang paling selamat," katanya.

Pemasangan itu akan membabitkan penyediaan pengimbas pengecam wajah AI di lokasi strategik di perkarangan sekolah untuk mengimbas dan merekodkan bukan saja suhu tetapi kehadiran setiap pelajar, guru, kakitangan pentadbiran atau pelawat.

Setiap individu akan mempunyai Petunjuk Kod Kesihatan digital yang dapat diakses dengan mudah melalui aplikasi untuk pengesanan kontak secara pantas apabila diperlukan.

Selain itu, aplikasi KipleLive itu juga dapat digunakan sebagai saluran komunikasi untuk pelajar, ibu bapa, dan guru, sama ada untuk membuat pengumuman atau dengan individu atau kumpulan tertentu dalam senarai berkenaan.

Sementara itu, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Dong Zong Leong Seng Yee, berkata beliau yakin bahawa pelajar dapat kembali ke bilik darjah tidak lama lagi, dengan melaksanakan prosedur operasi standard yang ketat.

"Langkah itu termasuk memasang alat pengimbas haba AI, melakukan nyahkuman di bilik darjah setiap dua jam sekali, mengamalkan penjarakan sosial dan yang lebih penting, bekerjasama dengan Kementerian Pendidikan dan mematuhi semua langkah kesihatan dan keselamatan," katanya. - Bernama
