I follow the smell of money.

1. Recent Quarter Result

 

Two days ago, Supermax released its September 2017 quarterly report. EPS rebounced to 4.2 sen. I am quite pleased with the result so I added more at RM2.04.

 

 

2. Information From AGM

 

I attended the company's AGM on 20 November. The following is some of the relevant information provided by management :-

 

(a) Water issue for Plant 10 and 11 has been fully resolved. These two plants are gradually scaling up production and expects to reach full capacity by January 2018.

 

(b) In previous quarters, plant 10 and 11's depreciation charges were booked in even though unable to generate revenue due to water issues. In this regard, full production will have positive impact on profit margin. 

 

(c) China is cleaning up its environment. Many people is aware of the PRC government's effort to curb green house gas emission (both to fight global warming and to clean up its air). Less known is its effort to clean up its water under a system called 河长制. 

 

 

Basically, every stream, river and lake in China will have a caretaker (河长). It is usually the top leader in the area. This person is responsible for keeping the health and cleanliness of the river under his supervision. If the river is polluted, he / she will be directly held responsible. To ensure compliance, many polluting factories had been closed down. According to Supermax, this has caused users of Vinyl Gloves to switch to Rubber Gloves, benefiting Malaysian manufacturers. This is expected to be a permanent feature.

 

"ALL LOCAL GLOVES MANUFACTURERS ARE OPERATING AT FULL CAPACITY."

(Stanley Thai, CEO of Supermax during 2017 AGM)

 

(d) The company targets to invest RM100 mil in contact lenses. So far, it has invested RM70 mil. It has started selling online in US and is now trying to enter Japan. The Japanese market is huge but has very stringent requirement. One way to go around it is to acquire a Japanese manufacturer (in negotiation). China is also a big market, but apparently very protectionist. Stanley Thai said unlikely to be able to sell there unless the Malaysian government provides assistance.  

(Will the Malaysian government step in to give Stanley Thai a helping hand ? Laughdieme....)

 

Anyway, it won't bear fruits so soon. Supermax expects contact lense positive contribution only by second half of 2019.

速柏玛董事经理郑金森内线交易罪名成立 判坐牢五年罚款500万令吉
24/11/2017

速柏玛(SUPERMX 7106)董事经理郑金森今日遭吉隆坡地方法庭宣判内线交易罪名成立,遭判坐牢五年,另加罚款500万令吉。

吉隆坡地方法庭今日向郑金森和一名前抽佣经纪张强春(Tiong Kiong Choon )施以重刑,张氏被判坐牢五年兼罚款1000万令吉。

郑金森是APL 工业有限公司的前任CEO,他也是速柏玛创办人兼董事经理。

APLI工业已在大马股票交易所除牌。

证监会(SC)今日发表文告指出,郑金森被控於二零零七年十月廿六日至十月廿九日之间,把APLI工业会面对更高亏损的内幕消息,透露给张强春。

张氏根据郑金森向他透露的内幕消息,卖出APLI工业的6,208,500股股票,有关股票是他岳母及母亲户口所拥有,因此触犯两项罪名。

张氏在当时是一家证券行有执照的即日对冲交易员。

检控单位是援引二零零七年资本市场和服务法令第188条文,控股郑金森和张氏,在该条文之下,最高刑罚是坐牢不超过十年,罚款不少於100万令吉。

郑金森在上届全国大选期间,曾公开为反对党站党演讲,在全国大选後,郑金森的公司被内陆税收局调查。公积金局也在大选後抛售手上持有的速柏玛股票

speakup

Brahmal (of Creador) & TS Wong (of Myeg) do insider trading in Palette Multimedia but not arrested. Palette has been losing money for many many quarters in a row. But after Brahmal & TS Wong become major shareholders of Palette, suddenly Palette shows a profitable quarter! So coincidence? I dont think so! Brahmal & TS Wong had insider information!
The only difference between Stanley Thai & Brahmal/TS Wong is Stanley Thai openly declared his support for Pakatan Rakyat (now Pakatan Harapan). For that he targeted by the evil BN. But no action against Brahmal & TS Wong for insider trading in Palette because they are BN supporters (myeg kiss BN-ass for govt contracts). This is SELECTIVE PERSECUTION by BN, where BN supporters can escape persecution for committing crimes, but opposition supporters are persecuted for the slightest wrong doing however small.

Why such a big fine and jail term for Stanley Thai? GE14 is just around the corner, this is to ensure that NO OTHER CEOs dare openly express their support for Pakatan Harapan ahead of the coming GE14.
