Research houses upgrades all the Top 4 gloves companies since March 2020, from few hundred millions to more than 10 billions until lately, however, TPs keep dropping due to some other non fundamental reasons. With 15% DY for TopG at RM6.60, it may be enough buffer. The RSS on TopG is also unprecedented, high, perhaps too many derivatives issued and not monitored by regulators, equity link notes, structure warrants, and other stuff we do not have enough information.

we can only speculate or deduce, but we will never know the truth behind. Commonly in a RSS, the lender or the borrower, do not do it for a short period of time, i.e., one week or one month, it is for a period of more than 1 month, 3 months, 6 months or more. From another angle, players can also churn RSS. Sell, buyback (closed position), sell again, buyback again (closed position again) on the same day. Lender can call back the share anytime (in RSS). This is a risk borrower cannot avoid.

@MissTan, based on the brief article by soyacincau.com, my only deduction is JENDELA = NFCP0.5.

As long as there is capex and opex (upgrading) from telcos (whether NFCP1 or NFCP2 or NFCP0.5), OCK will benefit. (as I mentioned earlier, NFCP & 5G is a "bonus" to OCK growth from towercos & solar pv).

2020-08-28 18:03 | Report Abuse

I remember reading a research house report that OCK growth from FY20-22 is about 15% p.a. - 20%, that is not too bad. That time, they have not take into consideration of NFCP and 5G or Solar PV. So, any new participation whether 2020, 2021 or 2022 will help improved its earnings.

OCK is capital intensive (towers and solar) with reasonable payback period of 6-7 years. Due to its continuous expansion (each year capex is RM120-150m for last 5 years), depreciation eats into its profits, but operating cash flow is quite good. Invested about RM700m over last few years, cash flow payback (operating) is about RM100m - 140m, is not too bad. Unfortunately, they are "perceived" as high gearing. Compared with other listed towers companies, their gearing is very low, less than 1x. For me, their debt is good debt as it is assigned with sustainable long term lease rental income. In fact, many listed companies do not have such a strong sustainable income.

I have just glanced the 2Q results. Despite MCO negative impact to most sectors, OCK manages to maintain 1H PAT similar to last year, it is deemed good.

OCK 2H PAT always better than 1H, with about RM67m projects from NFCP, hopefully will complete part of it and profit can be recognised. OCK continue to expand, as can be seen from the additional capex in the cash flow statement. Liabilities dropped about RM40m, which is good. OCK will continue to benefit from NFCP and 5G.

Profit after tax is about RM28m for FY2019. EBITDA (normally use to measure telco and telco related sector) is about RM140m p.a. (RM35m for Q1). EV/EBITDA for OCK is good, about 7x. There is room to rerate to 10-12x. Q2 may be flat or even lower due to MCO, but consensus profit is about RM31-33m (11-18%) for FYE21.

@holyspirit: Similar to the first one (earlier I estimated RM20m, now they try to get RM24m). Technically not material. They have about net loan of about RM500m, using the fund to repay overdraft RM10m @ 7%, savings is RM700,000. Towers and Solar PV owners biz require huge capital, I think they have RM700m worth of these sustainable assets (10-20 years concession) and net loan of RM500m is not high compared with other tower listed company (2-3x of shareholders funds).

The reason profit is lower than the operating cash flow is the depreciation of about RM35m. This is normal for capital intensive business. In fact for new toll roads, initial years they may make losses.

1) Rights issue is generally perceived as negative (although not absolute). However, if we look deeper into this Rights Issue of 10:1 with free warrants, it is technically insignificant, i.e. raised RM18m only (after the revision announced last Friday 24 July), only one third of the private placement raised in Oct 2019 for around RM52m @ 60sen.

2) The other reason is generally telcos is also effected during this MCO, whereby everyone perceived OCK is in the same sector. OCK is related as a service and maintenance of telcos, but its contribution to revenue has been reduced to less than 30% in 2019 (taken over by towerco and solar pv - which OCK has invested more than RM600 million since 2016).

3) Besides towers and solar pv, coming quarters and years, OCK will benefit from NFCP and 5G Spectrum, which is worth billions.

Towerco's total revenue is about RM150m, for Myanmar alone is RM70m. In Myanmar, OCK has more than 20 years lease contract, giving it a total contract of RM1.4b to RM1.7b or more due to improving of tenancy over time.

1) @Platypus88, please read the latest annual report, EBITDA of towerco revenue ranges from 73% to 78%. I use EBITDA on INVESTMENT yield, 16% to 18% (that's why I mentioned cost of investment, not revenue). Myanmar revenue is about RM70m and is growing, the EBITDA is RM51m, EBITDA margin is 73%.

2) I am trying to explain from an asset yield's perspective (like you buy a property, what is the rental yield like) so we could compared with other assets.

3) @holyspirit, for patience investors, hopefully it can reach it in less than one year.

4) Not sure it will kill the ock-wa, as the ex-rights is only 2-3 sen down (and the rights of 1:10, as I mentioned many time, not very material, barely can raise RM19m, even lesser than the private placement of 60 sen for RM52m less than a year ago). If the theme play for towerco comes (not telco), sooner, than it is possible in may reach 90 sen before year end. Over time, market will be more familiar with towerco as more coverage by research houses.

5) Edotco investment in Myanmar is impressive for its 1,250 towers. Its tenancy growth about 20-20% p.a. for few years after they bought it 2015/6. As for OCK, hopefully it can reach a double digits growth in tenancy ratio as well for its 1,000 towers in Myanmar.

@holyspirit, at the moment, market is over 65% concentrated in gloves stocks (in value). At the same time, in volume terms, over 65% is concentrated on penny stocks, so not much attention is paid on "valuation".

There is no rule in market movements or sentiments, it can change course as it wants. However, general consensus is stock price should catch up to its value over time, sometime longer than you could wait, 2, 3 or 4 years. As far as I know and understand, towerco is like renting an asset (depends on tenancy ratio) at about 12-18% yield, and it can goes up to 18-25% yield when the tenancy ratio improves.

Now, for OCK, its tenancy ratio ranges from 1.3x to 1.4x, and there is room for it to grow to 1.5x to 2.0x. (substantial of its assets is in tower around RM600m). Of course they also has solar assets of about RM100m.

Renting of tower and its valuation is not known to many local investors yet. Hence, valuation methodology used also different from one to another. But we know market is using EBITDA multiple on M&As. We can estimates.

Our only risk is TIME, how soon will the price catch up to the value. That one, if you are lucky (buy at the right time) your yield will be very good, like the gloves.

@holyspirit, normally after ex-date, OR (Official Rights) will be traded in the market, you'll be credited the OR and this can be traded in the market for a few weeks (please confirm with remisier), you can choose to dispose the OR, the person who bought the OR can then pay another 20 sen to get this rights issue shares. After two weeks or so, this person (who bought the OR and pay for the rights) will be credited the OCK shares.

If you choose to keep the OR, then you must quickly take up the rights (20 sen) within the stipulated time given in order to own the rights issue.

Market sentiment towards telco is not very positive, but going forward with 5G and spectrum should be better. However, many still confuse OCK as a telco sector company, in reality, TOWERCO has a better business model and locked in concession of >20years for Myanmar and >5 years for Vietnam. So, Towerco profits are more stable and always has good upside when tenancy ratio improves and also expansion.

1. PRICE
Most (not all) RI is seen as "negative" by the market. (Unless that stock is part of the theme play or very popular with syndicate).

2. FUNDAMENTAL
If you look at RI of 1:10 (with warrants), the fund raised actually quite small, about RM19m only (and OCK's about 75% held by institutionals, likely will pick up). If you look deeper, they are issuing at 20 sen, a steep discount of >50% to the existing and prospective investors (at 52 sen). The warrants (only 95.9m vs outstanding shares about 959m) issmall in proportion, and the pricing will likely pay substantially for the RI of 20 sen.

RHB mentioned its FYE21, revenue contribution is likely increased to 80% from 70% (that means OCK has sustainable earnings) and growth potential as well from expansion of towers and solar and also increase in tenancy ratio. Consensus gave OCK's TP about 68 - 73 sen.

3. MISCONCEPTION
Btw, many "undervalued" stocks is overlooked at the moment due to "political uncertainties" and focus only on Covid-19 related stocks and penny stocks.

Like the market, sometimes market may miss this undervalue stock because the current theme(s) is on related biz of coronovirus. They also has the misconception of rights issue (of course, some raised a lot of funds to really pay for debt, in OCK's case, only RM10m allocated to pay debt of about >RM500m, it's insignificant. However, time will tell, basically this is a "dividend in disguise", giving you 100 units of OCK (if you have 1,000 shares) free of charge, you can sell this rights and get >10% return. Of course, 10% return during this gloves season is nothing, hence, not much interest and ignored.

4) NFCP or 5G backbone projects will be additional contribution (next 5 years) on top of the recurring profits.

1) Assumed they pay back loan immediately of RM500m x 6%, they will have additional profit of RM30m. Loan for towers basically is 6-7 years on average. This loan is there as OCK is expanding every year (RM120m - RM150m) x last 4 to 5 years. Actually, they did get lost of cash flow from tower, it is used for repay loan, interest and expansion (from 600 to 4200 towers)

2) The plus point is OCK has capacity to improve its profits without additional capex from the tenancy ratio increase, say for 1.3x to 1.8x, but this can only be done gradually over time (few years) and all the improvement in revenue (30-40%) will flow directly into profits. As soon as OCK par down its loan, it takes new one to expand, that is why the tower keep on increasing, for me, is good, meaning excess cash allocated into a RECURRING PROFIT BIZ. Just like my rental increase 10% each year, so I buy more units (towers). The yield is easily 12-18% p.a. (depends which country you are referring)

3) NFCP allocation is a bit slow (although they are implementing phase 1). Hope in this 3rd quarter will be some good news.

"Popularity" and "allow for operators" comes first. Good sector theme comes second, OCK falls within the "telco" sector which is neutral, hence, not much attention, although towerco is part of telco eco-system.

Towerco and Telco has very different business model, one is based on few MNOs and the other based on millions of customers. Market will categorize them together even though one depends on concessions with telco and tenancy ratio, the other depends on subscribers satisfactions and coverage. Towerco is similar to a IPP, besides having a core tenant, it can take multi-tenants, whereas IPP only has Tenaga as customer. No worries, the market will rotate theme.

Extract from RHB Research:

Reiterate BUY, new SOP TP of MYR0.68 from MYR0.65, 19% upside, after rolling forward our base year to FY21F. We continue to see the OCK Group as a strategic beneficiary of mobile sites and fiber deployments. Stronger tower tenancies and site acquisitions in Indo-China should sustain the double-digit growth in tower leasing revenues going forward.

“We expect the recently-announced rights issue to be priced at a significant discount, to entice shareholders.”

Other key catalysts are the sale of a strategic stake in its towerco and new contract wins.

Kenanga maintain TP, MSecurities reduce TP.
