With its stock down 47% over the past three months, it is easy to disregard Globetronics Technology Bhd. It seems that the market might have completely ignored the positive aspects of the company's fundamentals and decided to weigh-in more on the negative aspects. Long-term fundamentals are usually what drive market outcomes, so it's worth paying close attention. In this article, we decided to focus on Globetronics Technology Bhd's ROE

On a separate matter, he said work has also commenced on the project to lay a new 1.35m river-crossing pipeline at Sungai Perai, near the Ampang Jajar bridge.

“This pipeline is scheduled for commissioning in January 2026.

“When completed, this Sungai Perai river-crossing pipeline will allow PBAPP to pump higher volumes of treated water from the Sungai Dua WTP to Penang island.

This measure will address sporadic water shortage issues in some high ground and end-of-line neighbourhoods in the Barat Daya and Timur Laut districts.

He added that this pipeline is being laid to supply more water to about 120,000 water consumers on Penang island, including the factories in the Bayan Lepas free trade zone.

It will also enhance the stability of water supply services in the western, south-western and southern parts of the island

And while the services provided did not achieve the objectives set, MACC said YTL Comms had made several claims against the Education Ministry that require a more thorough investigation to confirm.

MACC said the investigation has so far found that the government has to bear claims worth RM176 million from YTL Comms but the claim information has yet to be confirmed by the government, other than telecommunication substation rental losses for a period of five years from 2019 that is estimated at RM10.8 million......

Also take note, despite PBA has become super lucrative utilities stock, it cash holding will not increase in tandem as most of the profit earn will channel back to build more water treatment plant, additional water tunnel pipe to connect dam to water treatment plant, replace old water pipe to reduce non revenue water, which in turn will increase PBA capacity to supply more treated water to meet increase Penang water demand. Its win-win cycle, but at expense to shareholder as dividend payout ratio will decrease from historical around 30% to maybe 10%. However, the absolute dividend will definitely higher as EPS is expanded multifold higher

Just relax, utility stock is recession proof business, more so after traffic rate hike, PBA water concession have now become super lucrative utilities stock. As PBA just post first maiden Q result after rate hike effect, knee jerk effect have sent PBA stock hitting historical highest level, following later now by volatile taking profit activities.

As we all known traffic rate hike impact will valid for next 3 year, therefore, PBA coming EPS will be sustain above EPS >15sen for cumulative over next 2 year before due another review on non domestic water rate in 2026 and following by another due on domestic water rate in 2027. Thus, keeping for long term and enjoy eventual fair PE valuation 10x for target price RM 6 is viable investment strategy now. In the meantime of waiting, just continue enjoy dividend as passive income which should getting higher following PBA improve profitability.

Aside, increase profit margin due to water traffic hike > 180%. Increasing water sold as Penang water demand continue growth also will contribute higher revenue forward which Penang gov project water demand will increase from current 870MLD to 1350 MLD by 2030 or about yearly 6% yearly increment water growth.

Take note, the proportion between domestic and non-domestic water consumption have gradually change from 62% domestic : 38% non domestic to current ratio 57% domestic : 43% non domestic will also increase PBA profit margin forward as non domestic water consumption in Penang is spur by increasing foreign investment in manufacturing, semiconduction, hotel and mall which their water consumption is >35m3 at higher water traffic rate RM 2.10/m3.

In Malaysia, water supply services are regulated at the Federal Government level. Federal regulation includes
the regulation of water rates that are set, approved and gazetted by the Federal Government. Individual states
and water supply operators (such as PBAPP) may not arbitrarily introduce new water rates.

Hence, for Malaysian water supply operators, new regulated water rates are the most important factors that
generate the biggest impact on financial performance, revenue and profitability

Just for clarification, May water consumption is 105m3, according to new water traffic rate, the bill payable should be RM 132.35

bimonthly water: 105m3
monthly water: 52,5m3
0-20 = RM 0.62 x 20m3 = RM 12.4
20-35 = TM 1.17 x 15m3 = RM 17.55
>35m3 = RM 2.07 x 17.5m3 = RM 36.225

Total monthly bill = RM 66.175
Bimonthly bill = RM 132.35

Kindly check whether May bill is correct or not?
