Rather than fixated with Supermax, investors should look at Superlon.

Back in its heydays, this company always trading above RM2

I believe better earning prospects ahead with growth contributing by its Vietnam factory

The supply chain shift to ASEAN would benefits Superlon too, not just EMS companies

Stay tune

FPI 2.43
SKPRES 2.24

Both has surged up since the quarter announcements.


Fabien "The Efficient Capital Allocater" Both SKPRES & FPI announced record quarterly revenue & net profit

EMS companies are benefitting from the diversion of supply chain and reduced reliance on China

The growth story has always been there. The coming earnings announcement would validate such narratives.

SKP today have touched its year high of 1.95

I have two EMS in my portfolio, SKPRES & FPI

SKPRES is a proxy to investing in Dyson.

The company is well positioned to record explosive earnings growth this year, mainly driven by higher demand for Dyson products.

Can the demand be sustained?

2 emerging trends are in favor:

First, thanks to Covid and the resulting shift to WFH trend, has resulted in increased demand for both household and hygiene products

Also bear in mind, there is a natural replacement cycle for household appliances.

there is a healthy pipeline of new products, more innovative products to automate more household chores

Second, Covid + trade war has prompted many MNCs to diversify their supply chain and reduce reliance on China

I see this as a permanent structural change in the supply chain where more manufacturers are relocating into ASEAN

PCBA is also contributing positively, gestation period is over, which would contribute to improvement in margin in coming quarters.

I am optimistic.

Amazing results

Record revenue (281mil) & record net profit (26mil)
Annualised EPS = 16.00 (which only imply 5.6sen EPS in Q4 compared to record Q3 10.40 EPS)

To be conservative, assuming EPS = 16sen
At current market cap, prospective PER = 8.67x
Net cash = 226.1mil (which is 49% of current market cap)
Adjusting for net cash, ex-cash PER = 4.41x

Valuation is dirt cheap.

Fiscal stimulus, whatever x trillion it may be, will be the next catalyst to boost oil demand and the expected recovery to pre-pandemic level

Yinson is a good bet for such eventuality

Since last week, we have witnessed massive rotation into value stocks. funds rebalanced their portfolio from stay at home stocks into stocks that linked to economic recovery, the airlines, banks, etc.

Treasury yields have rallied to multi-month highs. the 10YR is approaching 1%.

While positive vaccine news a boost to sentiment, clearly we are in a mini upcycle, I am more wary on the workings of mean reversion.

The path to recovery is much clearer since the onset of the pandemic, the pace is still very much dependent on the successful containment and commercialization of vaccine.

Short term fluctuations aside, I still believe glove stocks a must have in your portfolio, especially so given its prevailing valuations. Post-covid, glove demand is expected to expand at least 20-25% from the usual 8-10% annual growth rate.

Of course, diversification is one free lunch available. When the global economy does recover next year, consumption to eventually normalise, my portfolio of energy stocks would benefit from the rebound in oil price.

Impressive quarter, yes. Record revenue of 300mil+, NP margin approximate 10% with net profit of 29mil.

Annualised EPS = 43sen
Prospective PER = 10.2x

I believe the earnings have been largely priced in. About my fair value.

I have sold on strength last week. Average cost of 2.30

Cheers, guys

Well, on hindsight, I should have buy more. That's easy to say after the fact.

I guess if I pen my thoughts down in a public forum, like Choivo did, may lead to higher conviction. Second level of skin in the game!

Despite profit taking, Harta has remained steady.

Next week onwards will be interesting as we await a slew of earnings announcement from Supermax, Careplus and Harta.

If earnings exceed expectations, I foresee massive re-rating ahead, possibly testing the previous high.

There is no other sector apart from gloves that can provides such earnings visibility in the next 2 years at least.

The prevailing bias is still in favor of gloves. We have seen a resurgence of cases worldwide and we are just about to enter the cold season. This rising second-third wave would re-accelerate the ASPs growth further.

I believe the market is right to be cautious. Since its listing, for whatever reasons, LCT has disappointed time and again.

On valuation, i do note its parent in Korea is also valued on P/BV basis.

Anyway, I do think LCT will benefit in 3Q20 due to the strength in the PE/PP-Naphtha spreads. Likely, the petrochemical prices may remain strong until year end, helped by the hurricane disruptions. But i'm wary of the incoming new supply, especially the anticipated big increases in China PE productions & Pengerang coming on stream.

Good thing is the demand has seen its trough. One big plus factor is the Chinese economy is recovering strongly.

Buying below net cash is a no brainer though.

First, you need to separate out which are noise and which are signals.

Whatever newsflows, be it about vaccine, windfall tax, shifting of funds to recovery play, all these are noises.

Focus on the signals, i.e. the earnings. All that matters are earnings.

Glove is one sector you can be sure to see earnings growth q-o-q. In comparison to tech, which valuation has gone off the roof in my view, gloves valuations remain reasonable, backed up by numbers, the forward earnings.

RHB raised TP to 3.77

Post earnings adjustment, our TP is lifted to MYR3.77 from MYR3.46, pegged to unchanged 14x FY21F P/E. We are upbeat on this stock, as it offers strong earnings growth. This, in turn, is premised on the potential doubling of its orderbook by end-FY21, superior ROEs, and its undemanding market valuation of 10.6x

Orderbook anticipated to hit RM2bil by end 2021
