1) ENGTEX'S EPS IS 17,896,000 over a revenue of 253,817,000 or 0.07%
JAKS' EPS is 7,544,000 over a revenue of 154,788,000 or 4.8%
So ENGTEX's 7% beats JAKS 4.8%
2) ENGTEX'S Share Price is Rm1.35 over NAP of Rm1.76. So there is a discount of 30%. This meets Ben Graham's Margin of Safety (Ben wants a discount of at least 30% to NTA)
JAKS at Rm1.54 with NAP of Rm1.19 is 29.4% more than NAP. So Jaks failed Ben Graham's Margin of safety.
3) ENGTEX Pays a dividend consistently for the last 10 years while Jaks has no dividend at all for the last 10 years
See ENGTEX
4. ENGTEX is now making Mild Steel Pipes with 7 feet Diameter - beaten Jaks with Only 6 feet diameter.
So while Jaks goes to Vietnam for IPP Engtex has upgraded its Dutile Iron Pipes & mild steel pipes to capture the Lion Share of Booming Iskandar.
Engtex kept to its knitting while Jaks is venturing into uncertain IPP. See how UMW suffered when it ventured into UMW O & G?
ENGTEX Kept to its Field of Competence while Jaks wandered off into uncertainties.
5) ENGTEX has a more transparent management than Jaks in its Reports
Go see the Properties Owned By Engtex in the Annual Report
Example:
Geran 348543, Lot 112268 Mukim Of Tebrau, District of Johor Bahru, State of Johor, Johor
No.34, Jalan Setia Tropika 1/14, Taman Setia Tropika, 81200 Johor Bahru, Johor.
2 Double Storey Shop/ Office
Freehold
Date of Purchase 31-Dec-14
Size1,680 sq ft (Built up 3,360 sq ft) Price Rm1,027,000
See how ENGTEX Even listed the exact address of its Property. Jaks did not.
6) WATER IS A NECESSITY OF LIFE FOR SURVIVAL WHILE ELECTRICITY IS NOT.
Our human bodies consist of 75% water. We can't live without water. We can still survive without electricity. While electricity is an option water is a must.
So from all these angles of EPS, NTA, Dividends, Keeping to Its Knitting & Transparency & Human Necessity ENGTEX Beats Jaks handsdown
ENGTEX IS STILL UNDERVALUE WHILE JAKS IS NOW OVERVALUE
Please do your own investigation & invest accordingly
Best regards

Engtex was recommended by stock god. Let me put some faith in him. He must know something I dont
2017-06-13 07:33
Totally agree with you, this so hai just wanna find someone to talk. He didn't buy at all, all his money still stuck in those Holland stocks
2017-06-13 07:35
Engtex is low pe, low pb. However debts slightly high tough cash flow okm let's monitor it more to find more answer. It might be a good stock for future.
2017-06-13 07:37
I hv intention to buy Engtex but after tis sorchai article I better put aside becos I know he is the famous Terbalik King in Bursa.
2017-06-13 08:34
I dont want to be offended but this guy is definitely juz aiming for KYY's chosen counter
2017-06-13 08:45
I guess not to be too negative and lets study back fundamental. Is Engtex really that good?
2017-06-13 08:51
Seriously, I think Engtex worth the monitor.
Thus is a sentiment iver its water play going to finalise on Ict 2017.
(If no other mumbo jumbo).
Tough resistant at $1.48, let's see.
2017-06-13 08:51
He knows KYY is also quite a hated guy in i3 so he chose to aim him to grab some attention. Must be a lonely old fark from Singapore
2017-06-13 09:00
Good morning paperplane & all here.
All steel companies have high borrowings
Prestar (Bank loan Rm234 millions)
Masteel (Rm309 millions - short term loans)
Jaks ( Rm445 millions)
Engtex (Rm511 millions)
If you look carefully, ENGTEX is backed by High quality Assets like Shophouses.
So ENGTEX has high margin of safety Plus Growth
2017-06-13 09:21
For comcorp only one solitary factory in Kedah
Go SEE ENGTEX long list of High Quality Assets
2017-06-13 09:25
It's like COMel want to bancrupt wor....
Then now, COMel going up from 0.780 till $1.12 now.
Why change tone fast ger ?
2017-06-13 09:26
Haiyoh,
Next time must sharing view not good to jump decision straight away.
U cross checking the more u are more precise lor.
Anyway, Engtex has already in my wacth list.
2017-06-13 09:28
Jaks has had its price run. Fully valued for now. Engtex, on the other hand, has much higher margin of safety, hence a better bet for now.
2017-06-13 16:10
Agreed. But Jaks got backing from Super Investor to turbo charge its price.
2017-06-13 23:11
Good,
After stale bulls taken away Engtex should move up solidly on its own strong fundamental.
2017-06-15 09:59
ehhhh.....this article miss something....the first quarter result profit after tax should exclude the gain on disposable a piece of vacant industrial in johor.....
2017-06-16 16:27

I look at Engtex from 2 investment angles:
1) ENGTEX'S MAIN FOCUS IS WATER PIPES
2) ENGTEX'S SECORDARY FOCUS IS IN PROPERTY INVESTMENTS.
SO SEE THE WHOLE PICTURE OF WATER PIPES PLUS PROPERTY INVESTMENT BUSINESS.
SOME ARE SKILLFUL WITH RIGHT HAND WHILE LEFT HAND IS REDUNDANT.
SOME ARE LEFT HANDED PEOPLE.
ONCE A WHILE YOU SEE A PERSON WITH EQUAL SKILL IN BOTH RIGHT HAND AND ALSO LEFT HAND.
AND ENGTEX HAS SKILL IN BOTH.
AND BOTH CONTRIBUTE WELL TO OVERALL GOOD PERFORMANCE
2017-06-16 19:19
Cinqueterre,
Look at intrinsic value and invest accordingly.
Price going down does not matter if company is doing fine.
See Calvin's Wangzheng closed at Rm1.62 today at a new all time high.
Last time when I called for a buy on WangZheng the market responded sheepishly.
Now that Hong Kong investor offers to take WangZheng private people only start interested and chased it to new high.
So just buy while cheap. Don't care how others react. One day the Value of Engtex will emerge like WangZheng and people might also chase engtex into overvaluation.
By then you must resist the urge to chase.
2017-06-16 19:25
Rubbish article... a fresh grad with 2years experience in investment can easily beat you.
2017-06-29 23:27
Tan Teng Boo Follower - look at his eclectic portfolio - Nothing wrong with that
