Market sentiment is bad at the moment. Be patient.

Prospects and business outlook

Given the current economic outlook with challenges ahead, the Group remains committed to focusing on product innovation, digitising customer experiences and delivering network service quality, putting strategies in place to better manage coverage, quality and capacity.
The overall outlook for the telecommunication industry is promising but challenging with all the advancement made in the telecommunication technology, although the slowdown of market conditions continue to cause further uncertainties.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, which include competitive pressures and uncertain economic environment, the Board of Directors is of the view that the Group EXPECTS to POST POSITIVE RESULTS for the financial YEAR AHEAD.

B2. Comparison with preceding quarter’s results

Revenue in the current quarter ended 31 March 2017 of RM25.185 million is 7.64% or RM2.082 million lower than the previous quarter. The Group recorded a lower profit from operations of RM1.689 million as compared with previous quarter of RM3.185 million, in line with the decline in revenue. Moreover, the Group recorded a loss on foreign exchange as opposed
to a gain on foreign exchange in the previous quarter.

Review of performance of the Group

The higher profit achieved was attributable to a 78% increase in revenue and the recognition of deferred tax assets arises from a temporary difference on unutilised capital allowance.

For the current three (3)-month financial period ended 31 March 2017, the Group’s revenue rose 78.12% or RM11.046 million to RM25.185 million compared to RM14.139 million in the preceding equivalent financial period.

By geography, South East Asia countries recorded higher revenue of RM21.554 million compared to RM12.621 million for the preceding equivalent financial period.

The majority of the Group’s revenue was derived from Singapore, amounting to RM14.917 million (53.84% of total revenue before inter-company transactions), followed by other SEA countries (excluding Singapore) which recorded RM6.637 million (23.96%).

The Group’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Quantum Storage (India) Pte Ltd (“QSI”), generated RM1.985 million (7.16%), in revenue during the quarter under review. The Group completed the
acquisition of QSI in October 2016.

By product category, the Enterprise Data Management (“EDM”) infrastructure technology segment continued to dominate the Group’s revenue, amounting to RM25.527 million or 92.14% of total revenue, with Managed Services making up the balance.

The Group recorded a profit after tax expense/income of RM2.044 million for the current three (3)-month financial period ended 31 March 2017, compared to RM1.374 million in the preceding equivalent financial period.

Prospects
Recent cyber-attacks have strained many businesses worldwide as they struggle to retrieve lost data and keep their businesses operational. This has highlighted the importance of cybersecurity and data backup, and the need for companies, including Small- and Medium-sized Enterprises, to implement data storage and backup plans.

As businesses in the region digitize their information and workflow to comply with tighter regulations, they will increasingly need hybrid data storage solutions for their physical premises and in the cloud. According to the Computer Weekly/TechTarget survey IT Priorities 2017, 40% of Asean-based IT decision makers are planning a cloud storage initiative in 2017 and 40% are planning cloud backup projects.

As announced in its Corporate and Business Update dated 26 April 2017, the Group believes it will be able to meet these growing market needs through its three-pronged strategy of pursuing geographical growth in India and Southeast Asia;

developing a transnational infrastructure for data storage and back-up (which it expects to roll out in stages from the second half of the financial year ending 31 December 2017); and increasing emphasis on Managed Services (for which it seeks to double the revenue contribution over the medium term).

Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects the financial performance of the financial year ending 31 December 2017 (“FY2017”) to be better than that of FY2016.

The Group is cautiously optimistic of achieving expected satisfactory performance in FY2017.

Commentary on the prospects, including the factors that are likely to influence the
Group's prospects for the remaining period to the end of the financial year or the
next financial year if the reporting period is the last quarter:

Plantation
The recent correction in palm oil prices is due to the expectation of stronger production in
second half of 2017 as palms recover from the effects of El Nino. However, the Group is optimistic on the long term fundamentals of the industry and will remain
focused in improving productivity and optimizing production cost. We are also committed to
sustainability agenda and the RSPO certification has enabled us to enjoy better premium from
the sale of our CSPO and CSPK.

Healthcare
Challenging economic environment and entry of new players to the industry will continue to
weigh on the Healthcare sector. Nevertheless, we are cautiously optimistic that our Healthcare
Division growth would remain supported by our capacity expansion and introduction of new
service modalities. The Group is cautiously optimistic of achieving expected satisfactory performance in FY2017.

Lets review 4th quarter 2016 result update :

Prospects and business outlook

Given the current economic outlook with challenges ahead, the Group remains committed to focusing on product innovation, digitising customer experiences and delivering network service quality, putting strategies in place to provide better connectivity.

The overall outlook for the telecommunication industry is PROMISING BUT CHALLENGING with all the advancement made in the telecommunication technology, although the slowdown of market conditions continue to cause further uncertainties.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, which include competitive pressures and uncertain economic environment, theBoard of Directors is of the view that the Group EXPECT TO POST POSITIVE RESULT for the financial year ahead.

Review of Performance of the Group:

The Group's gaming revenue is stated net of Goods & Services Tax. Gaming sales for the current quarter at RM697.1 million was lower than the previous year corresponding quarter by 7.4% or RM55.5 million. The DECLINE was due to
1) intense competition from illegal operators,
2) weak consumer spending and
3) one less draw in the current quarter.

In line with the LOWER SALES and COMPOUNDED by HIGHER PRIZES PAYOUT RATIO, the Gaming pre-tax profit decreased by RM54.8 million from RM99.7 million recorded in the previous year corresponding quarter to RM44.9 million achieved in the current quarter.

PROSPECTS:

With the illegal gaming activities continuing to flourish and affecting market share coupled with rising costs leading to lower disposable income, the Directors expect that gaming revenue will MODERATE.

Notwithstanding the above, the Group will continue with its various marketing strategies and product innovation to mitigate the sales decline.
