Dear fellow traders, 
 
For 2016, I will be sharing some fundamentally sound counters with upside growth progressively through out the next few months. These are just a few of my humble highlights (not recommendation), feel free to have some intellectual discourse on this. To join my telegram channel : https://telegram.me/tradeview101

Value Stock No. 1: Magni Tech Industries Bhd (FV RM5.40)
 
Quarterly Results (2Q) of Magni announced last week was mind blowing. Magni achieved record quarterly results with a jump of 2.7 times EPS from 7.38 sens to 19.94 sens. It is amazing because although many already knew good results was on the way, most were delighted to know there was special dividend of 3 sens on top of the 5 sens interim dividend. Of course, Magni as a garment manufacturer is a strong beneficiary of the export theme. Weak MYR has allowed Magni to achieve supernormal profit margins. However, the key to their continuing profitability is their tie up with Nike. Look below:
 
 
  • Orders for the Nike brand for the next four months rose 20 percent, excluding the effects of currency. Analysts expected a 13.6 percent gain.
  • Net income increased 20 percent to $785 million.
  • Sales rose 4.1 percent to $7.69 billion. Analysts estimated $7.81 billion.
  • Gross margin widened 0.5 percentage point to 45.6 percent. 
 
 
Most export counters has shot up and the price has ran substantially. Magni was among those that went up a lot and even had a bonus. Yet, I chose to put money in Magni because of the increase in profit comes from beyond just the profit margin. Their revenue is also growing which to me shows that even if the share price has went up, there is still more room as it is not only a profit margin play. If you believe in the potential growth of Nike, then dont hesistate to jump in.
 
Against its peer, Prolexus which is trading at 11.5x PE, Magni is currently trading at 10x at the closing price of RM4.49 Wednesday. I am confident the next Magni is able to maintain their EPS for the next 2Q due to festive seasons cycle as well as the impending Olympic 2016 which will boost sales for Nike sporting products. 
 
The current EPS stands at 22.86 sens for 2 quarters. Taking a forward annualise earnings for 4 quarters amounts to 45.72 sens. At PE 11.5x, the fair value for Magni should be RM5.25 and at PE 14x, the fair value would be RM6.40. In addition, there is also a dividend of 8 sens declared. Conservative individuals can consider multiplying a 10-20% discount. As such, I raise the multiple to x12 and conservatively forecast the full year 2016 EPS at 45 sens, this would bring the FV to RM5.40 which in my opinion is reasonable.

Prolexus is just abt to expand. Valuations wise, Magni is cheaper. Also, Magni had been in Vietnam for > 5 years while Prolexus is just about to step foot there. U judge.

Why magni still intact with the departure of Vincent tan??

I concur with RosmaMansure fully. My exposure is in Magni. Just my preference. Prolexus also is a solid fundamental counter. VT is a tycoon. Buying and selling companies are small part of his business dealings. I dunno the reason why he choose to sell Magni. Regardless, the QR speaks for itself

Watch Magni fly when they report 3rd quarter result in March 2016. Nike reported in the last results in Dec. As of the end of the quarter, worldwide futures orders for NIKE Brand athletic footwear and apparel scheduled for delivery from December 2015 through April 2016 were 15 percent higher than orders reported for the same period last year. Excluding currency changes, futures orders would have increased 20 percent.*

Reading through Nike future orders means Magni already received the orders last year and should be manufacturing for the client.
