GPACKET - At an inflection point (webe is history). Having posted cumulative losses since 2010, FY17 would be at an earnings inflection point for Green Packet as the company no longer bears the losses from webe – Telekom Malaysia’s (TM) converged 4G operator – from 4Q16. To recap, the company’s stake in webe was reduced to 18.9% in 3Q16 (from 31.1%) after TM exercised its rights under an earlier convertible medium-term notes (MTN) programme. Expect the profitable core segments of communications and solutions to drive a steady stream of recurring earnings moving forward, with the new digital investments fuelling a stronger earnings recovery from FY18.

GPACKET - Internet of Things (IoT) and smart services – the icing on the cake. Green Packet has singled-out e-services and IoT to be the new growth engines and has embarked on several related M&As to strengthen its execution capabilities. Among the notable acquisitions were a 22% stake in listed Yen Global (Yen) for MYR18.2m (Aug 2016) and a 20% stake in Shenzhen Memo Technology Co Ltd (Memohi) for MYR6.4m. Yen’s subsidiary, Atilze Digital SB (Atilze) is rolling out the long range, low power wide area (LoRA) network in the country, which would be used for the deployment of IoT via embedded sensors.

GPACKET - Emerging financial technology (fintech) play. Green Packet has put in place a payment platform to provide end-to-end solutions for its digital ambitions. In Aug 2016, it purchased an 80% stake in WOL – a Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) e-wallet license holder – for MYR9m to facilitate cashless and card-less transactions. The company has also set-up a mobile wallet application – Kiple (kiplepay.com) – to tap on the rapidly-growing e-commerce segment. Green Packet is also collaborating with the Government on a cashless/smart payment card that would eventually be rolled out in schools nationwide. The smart preloaded card would eventually replace cash payments by students at cafeterias, canteens and bookshops, and would ride on WOL’s infrastructure.(sources : RHB securities)
