I think expectation of decision by MyCC fines on 5 poultry feed companies coming year end. If LHI found guilty, fine is Rm154mill. But I don't think there will be a fine. Soy meal and corn price when up . Of coz price of chicken feed goes up. This MyCC simply abuse power ... KNN!

Anyway this recent down price is due to Clarinden Investments Pte Ltd dumping shares. They are 3rd most LHI shares.
2023-12-05 10:45 | Report Abuse
LHI cannot control the market price. These has to do with anchor investors that hold the shares. Maybe they dump after their lock-in period expired. Nothing to do with LHI.
gankm
Please remember the IPO price for LHI is $1.10. The share price started to drop after second day of listing and never ever went above $1.10. So is right to say LHI is a conman company just like Malakoff. Am i right?

LHI had reduced their capex. The free cash flow as this quarter 743mil. By end of the year will be close to 1 bill. To me this is favourable bcoz they will be reducing their debt. This quarter they reduced their debt by Rm255mill q-to-q

And another thing ... TopGlove is the biggest glove producer in the world.
In normal/good market condition and demand is strong, TopGlove is favourable becoz they somewhat decide the ASP. Being the biggest producer and economy of scale, they can make profit via volume play.
But in bad condition (low demand aka low volume), their high overhead cost becomes a problem. They have to maintain a certain ASP which becomes favourable to smaller players. In this situation, smaller players can achieve profit first. And if demand keep staying weak ... smaller players are favourable. Hartalega proves this fact to be true when the shutdown their Bestari Jaya plants. And the next quarter (Q3), Harta becomes profitable. So Kossan, Harta and Supermax is in sweet spot when it comes to production capacity size.... for current demand condition. I believe Supermax make a loss in Q3 bczo of their US venture.

That's a very good point. Thx

Customer stock bought during Covid time either already expired or near expiry because medical glove`s shelf life is about 3 years. You will see demand back to pre Covid time very soon. ASP price will be going up due to demand normalized.

But as of now and uncertain market condition ... Kossan is sitting pretty.
We know most of the world is in negative GDP. Companies with strong cash position is very favourable.
2023-12-01 08:57 | Report Abuse
Yeah. No doubt. But we look at how their strive in challenging situation. I would look at that EPS, NTA and ROI....during good times (pre-covid). And you only burn cash if you make a loss. Kossan and Harta are profitable. They are sitting on cash, making them easier to go through hard times and lower debt. Once profit are more consistent from quarter to quarter ... they can decide what to do with it ... share buy back, special dividend, green energy tech etc ....

Thanks, but you have forgotten the basics......EPS, NTA and ROI.....just sitting on a pile of Cash won't work as they are burning cash.

1 Kossan: Q3 Profit 41mill. Cash 2+bill.
2 Hartalega Q3 Profit 29mill. Cash 1.6+bill, Production capacity similar to Kossan. Use to be favourite for dividend payment but Harta cannot pay similar dividends anymore.
Harta used to be more efficient in production but the lower profit (comapre to Kossan) might suggest Kossan had stepped up their game in efficiency.
3 Supermax: Q3 make a loss. Cash 1.6+bill, Production capacity similar to Kossan. Mistake to invest in US. US is problematic with labour unions (high labour cost) and strict regulations.
4. Top Glove: Q3 make a loss. Lowest cash among the 4. Production capacity is high but utilization rate is low, hence overhead fixed cost is high causing net loss. Should demand goes back to pre-covid, then maybe TopGlove can reclaim no. 1.

We will see such high profit from Q to Q bcoz LHI is done with expansion. With lower capex, net profit can be high. Now is time to recuperate profit from their investment.

THere's a reason Msia is top in gloves. I suspect is good Msia quality. China and Thailand took 5% was due to glove shortage during covid. They might come back for the same quality reason.

Totally agree. Harta is valued more bcoz they pay better dividend than Kossan on historic basis. But I think Harta cannot sustain the same dividend payout anymore.
Harta outstanding shares: 3.417bill. Cash position: 1.6+ bill
Kossan outstanding shares: 2.557 bill. Cash position: 2+ bill
Harta production capacity been cut to almost Kossan level. Kossan made 2x net profit than Harta in Q3.
Either Kossan price go above Harta or Harta price drop below Kossan. This rely on sentiment.

To continue ... China quality lower. So if CHina improve on quality meaning increase raw material... their cost would be at par with Msia. Meaning they have to increase ASP to be profitable. So is China a big threat? ... maybe ... from lower labour cost.
To me ... China and Msia don't have much room to play when it comes to cost.

Sure. Capacity Utilisation is important. But that is from reported data. Everybody can see and make a decision. And from Kossan Q3 profit shows they managed their fixed cost well.
For me, to make money, we have to speculate future data, mainly demand and existing customers' stocks. If they need restock means gloves make money. From the improving gloves numbers, demand is back and customers' stock is lower.
Andre Kua
Actually do you know how to calculate whether or not glove is worth buying??? Based on QR??? LOL...
You have a rough estimate of their annual capacity. Use that to calculate based on guesstimate pricing for bulk 1000 pcs pricing. Then compare with their revenue and you will get a rough figure about ASP and if ASP is showing sign of rise. Use the base bulk pricing calculation of USD20-25/1000pcs to guess their current capacity utilisation.

Actually China also make NBR gloves. So their raw material cost is same as Msia.
But their quality is lower ... meaning thinner gloves. Meaning use lesser raw material.

Different usage. NBR for medical and high-end. Latex maybe food preparation or butchering facilities. Both has it's market. NBR more expensive lor.
