（吉隆坡14日讯）冠病爆发至今，海运业和物流业变得炙手可热，抵销了航空业受到严重打击的影响，大马投行看好海运和物流需求将保持强稳，因而继续乐观看待运输物流业整体展望，决定保持“加码”评级。

不过，该行提醒说，如果港口货柜处理数量和包裹运送数量增长慢于预期，航空旅游复苏步伐也迟缓，该行不排除将运输物流业的评级调低到“中和”、甚至“减码”的可能。

大马投行表示，海运公司将继续从全球货柜货运需求增长趋势中受益，物流公司也能够自冠病刺激的网购交易中获利。

至于目前表现疲弱的航空公司，随著疫苗接种加快，该行看好各国将逐步解除封锁，进而提振航空公司业务表现。

整体而言，该行保持运输物流业的“加码”评级。

大马投行引述上海出口货柜运价指数（SCFI）说，这项全球货柜贸易指标创下新高，显示海运市场需求自2020年中以来一直保持强劲。

该行说，欧美对服装、配饰、机械零件、汽车零件等消费品和工业品需求的复苏；亚马逊、沃尔玛的大型零售商的补货活动；汽车业等全球严重的晶片供不应求。

海运公司面对货柜囤积影响

不过，大马投行指出，海运公司面对港口货柜囤积影响，主要是更容易获得疫苗的欧美经济开放快于亚太，导致市场出现欧美货柜过剩、亚太货柜却不足的不平衡现象。

“同时，由于亚太冠病疫情仍严重，受各项封锁限制影响，港口周转时间更长。”

该行说，随著船运公司陆续接收到新货柜、亚太经济复苏加快、空运服务在各国解除封锁后恢复、欧美消费需求转向服务业、封锁放宽等，相信港口货柜囤积效应将消退。

大马投行指出，目前国内港口营运公司正通过将货物从拥挤的港口分流，而提高了市场份额。

西港（WPRTS,5246,主板交通物流组）是区域主要转运港口之一，由于货柜囤积，影响了效率，造成船运公司错过了港口停靠时间，并影响到其他港口往返时间。

该行假设情况在短期内恢复正常，西港应该会回到更强劲的增长道路，因此该行预期该公司的货柜处理数量将在2022财政年增长5%，快于2021财政年的2%。

对于物流业展望，大马投行表示，国内包裹递送市场显著扩大，能够让新的和较小的业者找到生存空间，与更成熟和更大型的对手共存。

包裹运送业炙手可热

该行认为，冠病促使网购风行，包裹运送行业更是炙手可热，而消费者尝过网购的便利、低价等甜头后，普遍会保持这类采购习惯。

此外，政府暂停发放新物流执照，也让早已拥挤的市场变得缓和，物流业者也能把握良机拓展业务。

该行预期物流业者会采取更多效率提升措施，包括外包最后一里服务、透过加速快递服务计划（PAKEJ）共享资产等。

选股方面，大马投行说，大马邮政（POS,4634,主板交通物流组）的效率和服务有待改善，近期展望依然不太乐观。

该行补充，在PAKEJ措施启动后，该公司的服务若不改善，恐怕会面对罚款。此外，在PAKEJ之下，该公司的网络覆盖率优势恐怕会渐渐消退，连带市占率也可能会遭到侵蚀。

航空客运量恐降29%

大马投行指出，困难重重的航空业2021年展望仍不乐观，大马航空委员会（Mavcom）预计客运量可能按年减少22.9至29.1%，跌幅大于该行估计的20%。

不过，随著全球逐步解锁，相信航空业展望也会跟著改善。

该行选择的复苏空运代表股项是大马机场（AIRPORT,5014,主板交通物流组），并认为这是相对安全的选项，因为机场属于国家策略利益，该公司也拥有政府作为后盾，股东支持无虞。

相对之下，该行对亚航集团（AIRASIA,5099,主板贸服组）保持谨慎看法，尽管该公司已提出高度稀释股权的现金集资活动，但能否走出泥沼仍属未知数，因为该公司的财务已受到冠病严重打击。

无论如何，大马投行认为，航空公司和机场公司仍有著货运服务需求增加以推动业务改善的机会。此外，为求生存，他们也会加快创新和开发新收入来源，并将成本控制在最低，这些都是有利因素。

In its latest annual report, the group said it will invest in new equipment to enhance efficiency and competitiveness. “Farm improvement and expansion are always the most important agenda as they represent the core business of the group."

PETALING JAYA: Poultry company Teo Seng Capital Bhd expects to stage an improved performance in 2021, supported by its efforts to enhance efficiency across its businesses.

In its latest annual report, the group said it will invest in new equipment to enhance efficiency and competitiveness.

“Farm improvement and expansion are always the most important agenda as they represent the core business of the group.

“Our farms are all (equipped with) closed-house systems and the All-In-All-Out (AIAO) layer farming management system.

“Both systems have better hygienic and safety standards to contribute higher production efficiency, ” it said.

In addition, Teo Seng said it will continue to invest in waste management facilities along with the expansion of its production capacity.

The investment into waste management facilities would allow the group to mitigate any negative risks from its operations on the environment, human resource, workplace, social and community.

“We continue to pursue opportunities to increase our presence overseas and sourcing right partners to enter into new markets and capturing more market share in existing domestic and overseas markets by promoting our brand.

“Last but not least, the management embarks on investment into downstream business as part of our business pillars.

“The board of directors is confident to face the challenges by taking proactive actions to widen its customer base through e-commerce, retune its business direction and mitigate the possible risk impact on Covid-19 pandemic.” stated the group.

Moving forward, Teo Seng pointed out that the poultry farming industry may face consolidation, given the uncertain operating conditions and market challenges arising from the Covid-19

pandemic.

Many players in the supply chain have been suspending their expansion plans in the aftermath of the pandemic, according to the group.

“Those local farmers who lack competitive advantages may opt to phase out from the market, defer or cancel their expansion plans.

“Thus, we will be prudent to manage our financial resources, operational costs and capital expenditure requirements for the purpose of improving efficiency across the whole organisation, eventually to gain competitive advantages and continue to be integrated and sustainable in this industry, ” it said.

FURNITURE manufacturer Jaycorp Bhd is one of the companies that are thriving in the Covid-19 economy. Tightening international border controls and a ban on interstate travel in response to the pandemic have led to a reversal in the company’s fortunes as people spend more time in their homes and money on home furniture products.

Backed by strong orders, the company is confident of beating its previous earnings record of RM24.69 million achieved in its financial year ended July 31, 2017 (FY2017). In fact, Jaycorp’s net profit of RM22.45 million for 1HFY2021 has exceeded that for the past three financial years (FY2020-FY2018) of RM17.4 million, RM19.82 million and RM10.29 million respectively.

Its executive director Muaz Jema Anton Khan expects the company to report its “best-ever year” as earnings have improved substantially amid the Covid-19 stay-at-home orders.

“The local market has been good because of the pandemic. [That’s because] a large chunk of disposable income now goes to home furnishings instead of being used for travelling, as people are stuck at home. This is very different from pre-pandemic,” Muaz tells The Edge.

Still, the Covid-19 outbreak had initially impacted Jaycorp’s earnings when the first Movement Control Order (MCO) was imposed in March last year, forcing the company to temporarily shut down operations. As a result, Jaycorp saw its net profit fall 12.2% to RM17.4 million in FY2020 from RM19.82 million in FY2019, while revenue was down 3.9% to RM309.35 million from RM321.95 million in the same period.


The weaker performance in FY2020 was also because of its kiln-drying segment posting a pre-tax loss of RM3.39 million versus the pre-tax profit of RM339,000 in FY2019 as a result of a write-down of inventories in the Malaysian subsidiary and a provision for employee benefits and tax penalty expenses in the Indonesian subsidiary.

Muaz explains that it was quite difficult for Jaycorp’s customers to physically look at its products or new models given the lockdown, adding that its major markets are Japan and South Korea.

“Customers generally want to come to the factory and see our products, particularly the new models. But we’ve adapted by having a digital showroom now. The pandemic has actually shown us that we need to modernise our operations.

“As such, we’ve become much more proficient in delivering our value proposition online even though some of our factories are quite remote,” he says.

The company also works closely with its customers in terms of product development. “We’re always trying to go up the value chain … trying to do higher-margin products and also looking at what is selling, as well as the market trends. At the same time, we will also try new designs and see how that works,” he adds.

Last month, Jaycorp had to halt operations at two of its factories in Johor for 10 days for sanitisation purposes as some of its employees tested positive for Covid-19. Muaz, however, says the temporary shutdown will not have any material impact on the company’s financial performance. “There will only be a delay (in orders), but I think we will be able to catch up quite quickly.”

While orders and queries from customers are robust, Muaz says it is difficult to gauge whether the trend will last until after the pandemic. “For instance, my consumption of delivery food has increased a lot, but once we come out of the pandemic, am I going to stop ordering food? No, I actually think I would probably order slightly more than I did before the lockdown because we already have that sort of behaviour ingrained in us.

“So, I don’t think there will be a massive drop (in sales), but it is hard to say.”

Expanding manufacturing capacity on the cards
While Muaz notes that Jaycorp is open to taking new orders, the manufacturing capacity of its furniture division is already running at over 90%. Thus, it is “quite difficult” now to take on new customers that have substantial volume orders, he says.

“We are always looking at expanding our capacity, but I think, given the current situation, the priority is shifting towards automation.

“Traditionally, the manufacturing business has been quite labour-intensive, so we are looking at new technologies that could essentially reduce the manpower,” says Muaz.


Jaycorp has set aside RM5 million to RM6 million in capital expenditure (capex) mainly for the purchase of new machines, which will be funded via 70% internal funds and 30% borrowings.

As at Jan 31, 2021, Jaycorp had a cash balance of RM52.57 million and borrowings of RM27.42 million, leading to a net cash position of RM25.15 million.

Muaz says the company will be cautious about spending as the uncertainty will linger for some time. “We are open to any merger and acquisition for our furniture division, but it will depend on the valuation and what capability the (acquisition target) can bring to the group.”

Setting a dividend policy
Despite not having a dividend policy, Jaycorp has been consistently pay

马星集团的首家手套厂位于巴生加埔（Kapar），建筑面积约达22万8800平方尺，处于一座手套工业中心的策略性地点，当地不仅配备了适合制造手套的生态系统，还坐拥成熟的基础建设与公用事业，更重要的是拥有大量的手套专业人才。


马星手套厂房已完成了2条生产线的测试与调试。

一座面向未来的高效率厂房

马星集团备受期待的首家手套厂房已完成了2条生产线的测试与调试，预计从下个月开始投产，将在5月和6月份交付第一批手套，另4条将如期在2021年次季投入运作。之后，还有6条生产线会在2021年第三季开跑。

在马星集团第一阶段的手套制造业务中，采用了12架全新且高速的手套浸胶机器，每条生产线在每小时可高速生产3万8000只手套，最大产量可达每年36.8亿只手套。

最佳规格规划

这座厂房从零开始建设，让马星集团能够从一开始就以最佳规格来规划。所设计的生产线采取全自动化以加强效率，并配有企业资源规划（ERP）系统，以及高级监控与数据采集（SCADA）支撑营运工作，让这家手套厂更具优势。同时，本集团在构建初期，即确保环境、社会和治理（ESG）条件皆完善到位。

经验团队标准严格

人力方面，马星集团招聘了在手套领域经验老道的专才加入团队，并针对代理机构提供的工人住宿环境，设下严格的合规标准，确保符合1990年工人住宿及设施最低标准法令（446法令）。


马星集团自动化且高速的生产线。

超越国界 买家热烈的回响

目前，马星集团已经取得美国食品和药物管理局（FDA）等有关当局的认证，其他的认证申请进度亦良好，如申请欧洲合格认证（CE）以将产品出口至欧盟地区。这彰显出本集团在获取最高安全标准的坚持，以及将产品深耕国际市场的承诺。

原料充足满足市场

此外，马星集团已经获得充足的原料，以满足手套买家和分销商们热切的订单和购买意向，他们计划将马星制造的手套出口至美国、加拿大、中东、欧洲、日本、中国、新加坡、俄罗斯和南美地区。买家们的支持和信任让本集团备受鼓舞，而且当中很多是医疗保健行业的知名品牌。

倘若需求持续超出供应，马星集团将在第二阶段的扩张计划中，再增加12条生产链，将年产能提高多36.8亿只手套，相等于初期产能的一倍。如果市场的回响是令人鼓舞的，马星的最终目标是成为马来西亚排名前5位大的手套制造商。


科技在提高手套生产效率扮演重要角色。

振翅翱翔 手套需求持续稳健

马星集团创办人兼集团董事经理丹斯里拿督斯里梁海金说：“我们有信心，除了具有速度上的优势，马星的手套业务在成本效率、生产力和产品品质方面，在后疫情时代依然具备竞争力。在我们目前专注于丁腈手套和乳胶医用手套之际，还会探索生产非医用、工业专用和其他手套的商机。”

即便在后疫情时代，更严谨的条规，加上人们意识到卫生习惯的重要性，预计手套需求依然稳健。这有助激励马星集团的经常性和稳定收入，辅助原本的房地产和塑料业务，在接下来为集团财务做出更大的贡献。

投资研发工作

同时，马星集团也不懈投资于研发工作，以期带来创新的产品，因为研发可说是维持业务增长的命脉。本集团会继续致力于研发工作，以强化产品和原料发展、可持续技术、工程和自动化方面的竞争力。

SBB, HOLD TIGHT TIGHT

KUALA LUMPUR (March 26): Velesto Energy Bhd has secured a US$8 million (RM33.17 million) contract from ConocoPhilips Sarawak Ltd and ConocoPhilips Sarawak Oil Ltd for the provision of jack-up drilling services.

The group said the project, named NAGA 7, entails the drilling of up to three wells, with work tentatively scheduled to start in the first half of 2021.

“NAGA 7 is a premium independent-leg cantilever jack-up rig that has a drilling depth capability of 30,000 feet and has a rated operating water depth of 375 feet,” Velesto said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the group said the contract is expected to contribute positively to its earnings and net assets during the financial period ending Dec 31, 2021.

Shares of Velesto ended five sen or 2.94% higher at 17.5 sen, valuing the oil and gas company at RM1.44 billion.

（吉隆坡25日讯）销售及钢铁价格走高，协德（HIAPTEK，5072，主板工业股）在2021财年次季，按年转亏为盈，净赚3005万2000令吉。

协德今日向交易所报备，上财年同季则是净亏765万7000令吉。

同时，次季营业额按年起32.71%，至3亿5602万3000令吉。

累计6个月，协德营业额按年扬5.27%，报5亿8746万6000令吉；同样由亏转盈3701万8000令吉，上财年则净亏1092万3000令吉。

由于全球供应中断及原材料价格上涨，钢铁企业将持续受益于全球钢铁价上涨，因为赚幅将随着价格上涨而不断扩大。

“我们预计从次季起，大马经济和建筑行业将恢复增长，加上公司的合资企业转盈，因此，董事部对集团在本财年未来的前景和业绩表示乐观。”

周四闭市，协德报47仙，起0.5仙或1.1%，成交量1932万6700股。

KUALA LUMPUR (March 25): Eco World International Bhd’s (EWI) net profit jumped by more than 10-fold to RM56.03 million for the first quarter ended Jan 31, 2021, from RM5.19 million a year ago, thanks mainly to profit recognition of the group’s Melbourne project.

Quarterly revenue swelled to RM303.28 million from RM51,000, EWI’s filing to Bursa Malaysia showed.

The group declared an interim dividend of one sen, to be paid on April 28. This is EWI's maiden dividend since its listing in 2017.

EWI said the higher profit was mainly due to the commencement of revenue and profit recognition of Yarra One, following progressive handover of units sold to customers and higher share of results in joint ventures.

The increase in profit was partly offset by the impairment of goodwill in relation to EWI’s investment in a United Kingdom joint venture and West Village project totalling RM9.31 million in the first quarter, it said.

EWI said it delivered RM408 million sales in the first four months of the current financial year.

Sales in the first quarter totalled RM312 million, slightly in excess of RM100 million a month, which is similar to the rate recorded in the previous first quarter.

“The consistency of sales, notwithstanding a third national lockdown imposed in the UK since December 2020, is very encouraging. It clearly demonstrates London’s status as a global city with continued strong overseas demand experienced by our London projects,” said EWI.

“Recovering local demand in Australia also contributed to the positive sales results achieved by the group,” it added.

Going forward, EWI is hopeful that property market conditions in the UK and Australia will improve in the coming quarters following the mass rollout of vaccination programmes against Covid-19.

With regard to construction, EWI said the first build-to-rent residential block of Barking Wharf was completed in November 2020 and handed over.

As work on sites was permitted throughout the recent UK lockdown period, the group is also on track to hand over the three remaining blocks in stages within the current financial year.

Based on current construction programmes, the group also expects the handover of apartment units in Millbrook Park Phase 2 and Embassy Gardens Block A03 to commence in the second half of the year.

“These completions will not only allow revenue recognition but also generate significant cash flows for the group,” it said.

EWI’s share price closed unchanged at 55 sen, valuing the group at RM1.32 billion.

Wow wow

Very good QR

Dun know how will going on tomorrow.

KUALA LUMPUR: Drilling company Velesto Energy Bhd booked in nearly half a billion ringgit in losses after it made RM460mil impairment for its rig assets in the last quarter.

The company blamed volatile oil prices and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic for its losses.


"Due to the slow pace of recovery in global economy and the oil and gas industry, the Board is of the opinion that the financial performance for 2021 will continue to be challenging," Velesto said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.

For the three-month ended Dec 31, the company registered a loss of RM493mil on revenue of RM99mil.

"There is an increase in the global oil and gas activities including in the drilling sector where a number of contracts have been awarded in the last three months," Velesto said today.

In Malaysia, a number of new drilling contracts have been awarded and more tenders are currently under evaluation. "The Group is participating in most of these tenders, in addition to a number of tenders in Asean countries," it said.

Currently, two of the Group’s seven jack-up drilling rigs are working, while another rig is scheduled to commence a three-year contract in Malaysia-Thai Joint Development Area by early April 2021.

Two more rigs are being mobilised to start contracts in offshore Malaysia in April and May respectively.

"At present, the Group is continuing to tender and negotiate for new contracts for 2021 and beyond," it said.
