An official blog in i3investor to publish sharing by Mr. Koon Yew Yin.

You can find the answer if you study the following financial highlight and price chart carefully.

 

My reasons for buying Xingquan are as follows:

  1. CIMB were the under writers for Xingquan IPO at Rm 1.80 per share about 6 years ago.
  2.  Xingquan has been making profit every year since it was first listed and its share price has been falling ever since. These 2 sentences do not make any logical sense.
  3. In the latest annual report 2015, you can see that its net tangible asset is Rm 3.42 with about Rm 3.00 cash per share. Its EPS is 42 sen in financial year ending June 2015 and it is selling at about 60 sen, P/E less than 2.
  4. Most of the investors do not believe the audited accounts is true because the company gave out very little dividend.
  5. I believe the audited accounts because one of the founders of S J Grant Thornton is my cousin. 
  6. Xingquan is listed in Malaysia and I believe our Securities Commission can protect shareholders interest.
  7. I also believe the legal system in China and the controlling shareholder of Xingquan cannot cheat the minority shareholders.
  8. Many shareholders are tired of holding the shares because it gives out very little dividend and they sold to cut loss. That is why the price has been coming down ever since it was listed.
  9. I visited Xingquan in Xiamen a few times and I know that it has utilized all the money it received from IPO to expand its existing factory and constructed hostels to accommodate 3000 workers.
  10. Xingquan has reduced its shoes and shoe sole business because of competition. It is now selling high class casual wears under the brand name of “Gertop”. It is not giving out dividend because it needs all the cash to open up new outlets. It has open about 110 outlets in all the larger cities in China. Xingquan has to pay cash for all their purchases.    
  11. In Guru Benjamin Graham’s book “The Intelligent Investor” all the company assets cannot disappear in thin air. Eventually the controlling shareholder will want some cash out of the company by giving out dividend.
  12. Although I am nearly 83 years old, I can wait patiently. When I die my Charity foundation can wait patiently. I think the risk in buying Xingquan is small.
  13. I am not asking you to buy. If you buy, you are doing it at your own risk.

What BOD of Xinquan replied to SC:

The Company wishes to clarify that the cash balance of RM886.55 million is mainly reserved for working capital, and as explained in the announcement dated 25 September 2015, Xinquan requires sufficient cash buffer and a high level of working capital to ensure minimal disruption to its operations in the event of a liquidity crisis or a sharp economic downturn. The purpose of the Proposed Rights Issue with Warrants is to raise funds for Xinquan’s capital expenditure requirements whilst maintaining a healthy level of cash balances at all times.

In addition, the available cash balance may also be used for future business expansion into related businesses, in particular, acquisition of foreign brand(s), if and when the opportunity arises.

The Group has placed its cash balances in savings accounts with licensed banks in China which carries an interest rate of approximately 0.35% per annum. The cash is placed in savings accounts as the cash is not idle and is required to fund Xinquan’s day-to-day operations.

Just my views:

The long-suffering shareholders should have lodged a police report against the BOD. SC not least should have taken actions against the directors back in late Sep 2015.

Xinquan paid to suppliers far less than what it collected from customers all these years, generating free cash flow quarter after quarter in that process. Its day-to-day operation brings new net cash in and do not AT ALL eat into any parts of its RM945m. This is shown in P/L, Statement of Financial Position and cash flow statements prepared by Xinquan and audited by Big 4. This is also how its cash balance has been piling up in the first place.

Put simply, Xinquan could run its biz perfectly well and its working capital turns over very comfortably even if the RM945m is locked away in high-yielding FD or better yet, distributed out as dividend to shareholders, if its working capital is managed evenly throughout each quarter which is like 99% of the cases in all companies. Even in the hypothetical 1% scenario where Xinquan paid 100% of its suppliers on the first day of each quarter and collected from its customers 100% on the last day of each quarter, it would need just Rm120m of the RM945m to fund this worst and unlikely scenario.

It is outrageous for SC to accept BOD's replies to queries that clearly were not borne out by what its audited financial statements tell the readers.

The BOD has the audacity to ask from shareholders RM50m more via rights issue for capex. This is clearly a day-light robbery of its shareholders.

To many, the RM945m cash balance seems a bait dangled out by the major shareholder to keep existing and potential shareholders interested. Therefore one cannot be faulted for concluding that BOD may be buying time and getting more money from shareholders before the worst happens one day- disappearance of the biz.

Against the major shareholders, minority shareholder has little chance though. Perhaps they can try to file a special application to SC, or relevant authorities, court, etc to allow minority shareholders to collectively pay for and conduct a special investigation audit to establish the veracity of this Rm945m cash balance. If it does exist, apply for statutory permission or injunction to lock it away in a designated bank account, and then fight for a mandatory takeover from its major shareholders on special ground of mismanagement misrepresentation, fraud, etc. On paper this company has a break up value of RM3.70. So, the battle is worth it to find out the truth.

feel very suspicious 1. revenue keep going down since listing until today yet the company still able to make profit 2. EPS was flat and down since 2011...The 2nd condition is critical as no growth in EPS no way the share price would go up. That exactly meet the investment criteria emphasized by Koon.

and this post is posted a day before the AGM, he did not coax u to buy and if he had waited after AGM only post this article maybe he will not do it anyway. Not that you guys are capable to push the price of the stock high so that he can get out. It is not so easy anyway. But all of us benefits from his stock pick's such as Geshen, Latitud, liihen and many more.

At Xingquan's AGM, I told the board of directors that they have been well paid since the company was listed more than 6 years ago but all the shareholders have lost money because the share price has been falling down from Rm 1.80 to about 63 sen. Unless you give out some dividend all investors will not believe your audited account is true. I walked out after I made my speech. I must admit that buying Xingquan is my worst investment. As I said when I die my charity foundation can wait.

Mr.Koon, can you sleep at night? Seriously, do you believe in Karma? This is so familiar...remember Mudajaya? I bet after a few months (or even few weeks!), you will post again and announce that you are too disappointed to the company, therefore you had already sold all your shares. I bet you won't post here to tell your fans at the beginning of selling shares, but will only post here AFTER YOU SOLD ALL YOUR SHARES. Am I correct on your strategy? God bless you, Karma exists. Your fans paid to listen to your talk show, and paid to buy your rubbish stocks. What a win win game.

fong7 and others who say that when I post or recommend any share, I want you to

Why are you so stupid to sell all these good shares to make me so rich? As I said Xingquan does not look good now but my charity foundation can wait and I can afford to lose a little if it eventually gone rotten.

Those red chips are an extension of Taiwanese stocks scam previously listed in Malaysia and SIngapore. Now, those guys are using the very same tactics for red chips.

Initially, profit will grow and with high cash level. After they goreng enough, something bad will happen like fire, thief, damage etc

After that, PN17 and delisted.
