Pang72 is so lonely...hehe, to me the QR is ok, you have to deduce ~RM90mil from net profit and its EPS is then around 27-28cent which is not too bad vs previous quarter considering current challenging environment doing business. Prospect looks good moving forward in case contribution from Thai can be further improved, looking forward to see if there is more contribution from Cocoaland (full quarter vs current 2/3 months) and "Milk" line (probably will not see anything significant for the next few quarters). The price is not cheap at current PE >20 vs the other smaller food producing companies...

Thanks Bilis and Jojobaa for trying to explain the deferred tax liabilities.
I tried to understand the term from investopedia, below is the explanation:

What is a deferred tax liability?
Deferred tax liability represents taxes that must be paid at a future date. For instance, if a company realized a taxable expense within a current period but hasn’t paid taxes on them, they are obligated to pay this tax expense at a later period. Deferred tax liabilities are often the result of companies operating two different sets of books, one for financial purposes and the other for tax purposes. Typically, rules that dictate the depreciation of assets, valuing inventories, or recognizing revenues often differ between these two books.

What is an example of a deferred tax liability?
The depreciation of fixed assets is a common example that leads to a deferred tax liability. Usually, a company will report depreciation in their financial statements with a straight-line depreciation method. Essentially, this evenly depreciates the asset over time. By contrast, for tax purposes, the company will use an accelerated depreciation approach. Using this method, the asset depreciates at a greater rate in its early years. A company may record a straight-line depreciation of $100 in its financial statements versus an accelerated depreciation of $200 in its tax books. In turn, the deferred tax liability would equal $100 multiplied by the tax rate of the company.

How is deferred tax liability calculated?
One other example of deferred tax liability is in how revenue is recognized. Consider a company that sold a $1,000 piece of furniture with a 20% tax rate, which is paid for in monthly installments by the customer. The customer will pay this over two years ($500 + $500). For financial purposes, the company will record a sale of $1,000. Meanwhile, for tax purposes, they will record it as $500. As a result, the deferred tax liability would be $500 x 20% = $100.

Looking at above explanation, I think Hibiscus will still need to pay the "underpaid tax" in the near future, this would be the item which I need to monitor closely moving forward. Perhaps I will also ask CY during the next AGM :-) cheers and happy investing~

Good thing to see lower debt and of course interest payment --> RM4mil less vs last year Q1. Labour shortage is really an issue, let's see what management say and how they are going to address this part lah, overall --> QR report Oklah.

@DLLKT - an interesting number for item no. 8, mind to share how/where you got this number? By taking the actual production ffb volume for Q1'21, I calculated the revenue should be around 190-200mil, which is still 15% lower vs previous Q4'20 @227mil. Q2-Q3'21 (months with high ffb production) would be interesting for Bplant if the CPO prices is sustainable, shortage of labour as mentioned in its latest QR is something that worth to find out. Any idea, anyone?

Revenue for Q1'21 is estimated ~RM185-190mil (derived from Q1'21 FFB volume drop ~27%, CPO prices increase ~17%, both are estimate numbers), Net profit Q1'21 ~RM22mil (profit margin conservatively keep at 12% due to high CPO prices) --> EPS: RM0.01

Pro: Long history company and rich land bank as highlighted by someone although I'm not sure if the valuation method is correct, continuously high CPO prices >RM4000 (many suspect it might not sustainable though)

Con: High past prime >20 years planted area ~40%/total (from AR2019) --> low efficiency planter, high total borrowing ~RM1.25bil (debt repayment ~RM60mil for 2020), complicated organization structures link to many unprofitable companies such as BHIC (some please give me your input) --> mother will sell you cheaply in case she need money :-)

Let's wait for the AR2021 and super slow Q1'21 AR, cheers~

Few things to watch out in coming quarter/s in order to stay on the game:

- Higher Q'4 revenue vs Q3 and 2020 net profit RM100mil, as many who claimed this :-)
- Q3'20: Share capital RM4.32bil vs reserves -RM1.25bil --> there will be no dividend to be declared as long the reserves is negative, it's good to see if there is some improvement on this part moving forward
- Q3'20: Total borrowing RM8.86bil (STB:RM1.66bil) vs Cash RM0.92bil --> it's good to see if cash on hand to be increased in the next few quarters from operation/profit + reduction in trade receivables + monetise selective asset such as selling under utilised OSV vessel

Share prices has been climbing steadily from 0.39 to current ~0.60, since the last reported QR in 25.8.2020 --> ~50% up, can the profit catch up in the next quarter? I bet it will and probably the current share price has been reflecting that already. There are few good things I observed from current quarter: 1) Revenue probably exceeded by ~10mil vs street expectation, highest in the last 11Q, 2) Borrowing has been reduced ~70mil however 0.5sen declared as dividend, would be better to keep cash/pay off more debt, some might see this as +ve on the other side :-)

@Young1: FFB production for BPLANT in Q3'20 is more or less same as Q2'20 at around 270K MT, only the selling prices will be higher but the number differs from one company to another. Net profit is not that simple to obtain because there are too many hidden costs (for example impairment) that will pop up/take away. However, revenue is something that you can learn to calculate but also, this is best guess based on FFB production for the reporting quarter.

Many are predicting/confident that the coming QR for most of the plantation stocks will be good, that's quite true especially those with very less debt, no impairment...

@Invest Icon, I took revenue ~600-700mil/year = engineer salary RM3k*13. Yes, I’m not a businessman nor good in FA but just voiced out my opinion and concern as an investor in BPLANT. Also share what other should watch out and know what they are buy into. It would be great to see the debt of the company can be slowly reduced in the next few quarters, follow by giving out dividend, this would be the sure direction I think everyone want to see.

@Invest Icon, not sure how did you came out that it is not critical, for me 61mil in paying interest/ year is definitely a lot for a company that making RM~600-700mil/year. Imagine this, let’s assume a fresh graduate make RM3000/ month and RM300 goes to interest payment for PTPTN alone, die lah...on the other side, a company director make RM30k/ month paying an interest fee of RM300, that is sap sap water right? My humble opinion based on limited no. of years in the market is that the company asset has nothing to do with you until they sell it and you get part from it. Seriously, I will monitor its debt level closely moving forward in the next few quarters. It should generate enough cash to reduce its debt if CPO price is sustainable...

I can see that it used additional ~RM1.8 mil (2,094,128 - 289,822 previous Q) for purchase of property, plant and equipment from the statement of cash flow. Liability is actually increased from ~RM2.07mil to ~RM2.83mil mainly due to "Trade and Other Payables" I don't get the whole picture yet, but probably it is a good liability when the supplier charge ESCERAM for their service/good so that it can ramp up its production. We will need to see in the coming QR if it generates more revenue, I have no idea how long it takes for charging, but I'm sure it was not reflected in current quarter with flat revenue vs previous one.
