The current share price level provides a good entry level, given Guan Chong’s global consumer footprint, and position for potential peaking of cocoa bean prices, as well as to reap the benefits from Guan Chong’s various overseas expansions,” the research house added.
RHB said Guan Chong’s 9MFY2023 revenue of RM3.5 billion (up 7.9% y-o-y) led to the underperformance in core earnings of RM85.8 million at only 50% and 55% of the house’s and the consensus full-year estimates.
However, Guan Ghong’s Germany-based unit Schokinag reported stellar numbers, with a 7.8 times growth in the earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (Ebitda) level to RM70.2 million, thanks to higher average selling prices and lower utility cost.
Meanwhile, Guan Chong’s core earnings of RM33.9 million for the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2023 (3QFY2023), up 10.1% y-o-y on margin recovery for its industrial chocolate operations, was partially offset by higher interest costs (up 152% y-o-y

B1. Review of performance
The Group’s revenue of RM1,285.9 million for the current quarter ended 30 September 2023 is higher than the
revenue in the previous corresponding quarter ended 30 September 2022 of RM1,100.5 million. The increase of
16.85% in turnover is mainly due to higher selling price for cocoa butter, cocoa solids and industrial chocolate.
B2. Comment on material change in profit before tax
The Group made a profit before tax for the quarter 30 September 2023 of RM41.6 million as compared with the
profit before tax of RM37.5 million in the preceding year corresponding quarter ended 30 September 2022. This is
mainly due to higher selling price in cocoa products and industrial chocolate. However, the increase offset against
the higher finance cost due to higher interest rate during current quarter ended 30 September 2023.
B3. Commentary of prospects
The cocoa industry has endured challenges in the global macro environment this year, influenced by factors such
as rising interest rates and global inflation. Besides, the El Niño weather phenomenon, black pod diseases and
swollen shoot virus have contributed to reduced supply, thereby resulting in the rally of cocoa prices.
Despite the challenging backdrop, and even as cocoa prices in the London market reached a record 46-year high,
the demand for chocolate products remains resilient. The Group continues to vigilantly monitor global
developments and adapt its growth strategy accordingly for the long-term sustainability of the business. The Group
foresees that these adverse market conditions are affecting its performance in the short term; nevertheless, it
maintains optimism about the long-term outlook.
Looking ahead, the Group will maintain its focus on its core business of cocoa ingredient processing while also
expanding into the higher-margin industrial chocolate market and optimizing production based on market
conditions.
