1. Last Friday on 2nd of June Hap Seng closed green at 3.48 after many weeks of red and that provided some comfort and reprieve to distressed investors. Just as we thought a trend reversal is imminent, we are again confronted with a rude and shocking surprise with heartache

2. Today, HS resumed its downwards momentum and closed at 339 down 9 sen and 16 sen off its intra day high of 355

3.Die hard fans of Hap Seng must understand that a single instance of a green candlestick does not indicate a trend. And truly, one swallow does not make a summer.

4. HS continues to face challenges and struggling hard to find its bottom and clearly, no one knows how much more it will fall.

5. On 2/2/23 HS had its 1st day reversal and closed with a long red bar after a mini bull run.Three weeks later on 20/3 it established a death cross in which the 9 day MA crossed over the 26 day MA lines from above to below. The gap between the MA lines widen and daily prices continue to weaken and consistently falling and trending below the 9 day and 26 day moving averages lines.
6. A death cross is a bearish pattern and it is a signal for more chaos to come. This happened on 31/5 when the Fund re balance it portfolio and HS faced a phenomenal collapse and a catastrophic falls in share price with volumn and volatility.

6. The RSI relative strength index is at 15.8. The counter is in the over sold position. The bears are active and there is no sign of retreat. This morning the share price advance somewhat and subsequently, resume its downwards momentum and continue to weaken and fall.
7. Technically, HS is in a long term down trend with no sign of bottoming. The RSI and the death cross and the widening of the gap between the moving average lines all point towards a gloomy and extremely bearish position.
The bottom has yet to be found.

8. In the coming days,the bears could make further advances and conquer new territory in the south more optimistically on dividend ex date and thereafter.

9. It is not looking good. Three three nine may not be sustainable. Trade cautiously.

1.What do you think about Radium?

2.On 27/5/23 three days before its listing I wrote and posted a lengthy perception about Radium in which I ended the posting with a negative outlook that reads as follows on line 12.
3. "Line 12. I think the upside potential is very limited on listing day. It would be a blessing if it does not fall below IPO price and end up with a red histogram on the candlesticks chart."
Well, indeed Radium experienced a phenomenal collapse of 24% on listing date and catastrophically closed at 38 sen.

4. If you have succeeded in your application and allotted IPO shares and suffered massive paper loss, great care must be exercised to avoid similar calamity in future by scrutinizing the prospectus specifically on how and the basis of arriving at the 50 sen IPO price. By now, you must be aware that selling at 17.3x PE multiply and 2.17x price to book value is astronomically far too high. Hence, the collapse on debut is not unexpected.

5. Next you must examine the capital restructuring and the capitalization of retained earnings and revaluation surplus and on the reasonableness as to how the enlarged capital for the founder was derived.

6.In Radium's case the founder shareholdings was inordinately and magically enlarged to 2.6b shares valued at RM1.3B

7. The founder did not undertake offer for sale in an attempt to instill confidence to the investing public and subscribers that it did not cash out during IPO. Looks noble and having all the fine personal qualities and high business moral principle.

8. But, the founder/director wasted no time and declared a 1 sen dividend that would go ex in July.This cash dividend will be paid out from the proceed of your 50 sen IPO price.

9 Now you know who gets all the money. For 26b shares the founder will receive RM26m cash. Otherwise he would have to sell 52m owner's share during IPO which is an incredible feat considering the lackluster response or 68.4 m shares at the current price of 38 sen.

10.Hi Guys you are dealing with a founder who is a shrewd and talented but self serving businessman who has a heart but does not feel for you and much less a soft spot for minority shareholders.
11. The IPO has been well plan and immaculately executed ,aggressively promoted through all media and sold with 100% success rate that also has its disadvantages and drawbacks.

12. Considering the collapse in share price, the founder has to face and deal with the 60m shares acquired by key managers and lower level position employees who traditionally acquired those share through interest bearing bank financing. The collapse in share price could even trigger margin call.

13. The much anticipated IPO and its rewards has become paper loss. This is a financial burden that dampen the working spirit at all level of management and it will certainly demoralize and diminish the employees sense of belongings in the company. From hereon until the share price recover, employees will wake up with fear and report work with anxiety. Being there and written with experience.

14. It the company believe human resource is an important factor of production and valuable capital,it must address this issue and be committed to pull them out of IPO suffocation.
15. It is a financial sacrifice the owner must endure to once again unite the employees and instill warm and sense of belongings.

To hhhiii123 who attack personally and Qweutyuiop who laugh uncontrollably.

1. In a few months time in a related party transaction Hap Seng would have sold its UK Manchester Credit Leasing business for RM837M. It will become a conglomerate without a credit leasing business. Upon completion of the disposal ,it would be permanently deprived of a long stream of revenue and profit and FUNDAMENTALLY SHIFT from a company that has a credit leasing operation to a company without a credit leasing business.
2. UK HSMCL has huge potential and great earning prosperity. Stop barking at the forum instead go and bite the hands that take away your banana. So, vote against it at the EGM and stop the FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT. Could you?

3. The price of CPO has collapsed spectacularly from RM8000 to close at RM3496 on Thursday 1st of June 2023. On the contrary, the cost of harvesting one MT of FFB has increased from Rm35 a ton to RM65 a ton and the transportation cost for 1 MT of FFB has increased from Rm30 to RM 50 a ton. The cost of fertilizer NPK 12-12-17-2 TE commonly used in palm oil plantation now cost RM4600 a ton compare to pre Covid period that only cost between RM1900 rm2100. It is undeniable and factually proven the cost structure of plantation operation has FUNDAMENTAL SHIFTED. Prove me wrong if you can with numbers.

4. In additionally,the government has forcefully imposed minimum wage of RM1500 a month that moves the labour cost curve upwards and outwards. The FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT in labour policy has immensely eroded margin and profit. With this on going development Hap Seng must recognize and address the cost impact of the rapidly changing operating plantation business environment.

5.Those who have eyes would clearly see there is a FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT in the cost structure of plantation business that immensely eroded Hap Seng huge earnings that represents the core and fundamental segment of HS business.

6. Fund managers saw the FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT and felt it is coming. This has led to the month end catastrophic portfolio adjustment. Some Guys have eyes but cannot see. Other have heart but cannot feel. It is unfortunate that your economic studies has been sadly neglected.

7. The country's CPO production and inventory stocks has swell form 1.1m ton to 2.93m ton and back to the acceptable level of 1.5m and now hover somewhere in between. The FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT in demand and supply and buyers behavior and the declining attractiveness has resulted in IJM Plantation, KUB, BOUSTEAD dispose off its palm oil plantations. The industry in which Hap Seng is operating is going through a major FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT and change to phrase out the weak players and moving into consolidation.

I could go on, but it is enough for today.

1.There was no short selling done yesterday. Price collapsed and crashed due to fund managers' bearish outlook and portfolio adjustment.
2. It was a great service to the 10.5m shares total short position. These guys a laughing to the bank by doing nothing or like what they would say, without lifting a finger.

3. HS is facing some issues and challenges and a fundamental switch in its business arising from rapidly changing operating business environment..

4.It is a huge conglomerate with several segments of business.
Plantation sector is not well. CPO price fell from RM8000+ per ton last year to RM3700 per ton this year. The loss in plantation profit is so huge that it can never recover.
5. Fertilizer cost is very high and still going up.
6. Property development is slow and sluggish. Shortage of foreign workers is a problem.
7 And many more challenges still unknown.
8.Fund managers have a bearish view and monitor with a negative outlook.

9. HS has been downgraded. Share price has collapsed and it is hard to say where is the bottom.

10. Because there is a fundamental shift, therefore a V shape recovery in share price is not expected.
11. It is believe that in the coming days or weeks it will find its bottom, than consolidate and nobody know for how long until a new trend appears.

1. The share price of PTRB has moved out of consolidation. The counter remains bearish. Its share price has weaken and continued to fall.

2. How much can it drop and how hard can it fall?.
Technically, PTRB has just completed a Shoulder Head Shoulder SHS pattern and formation. The left shoulder is peak at 44 sen and the head is at 68 sen with the right shoulder at 52 sen. The neckline is at 45 sen.

3. The SHS pattern is interpreted as a bullish to bearish trend reversal and it also signal the end of an uptrend as in PTRB.
4. Notice that on 18th May share has fallen and broken through the neckline at 45sen. Price continue to tumble and slip further to close at 41 sen today on 29th May.

5. Where does it go from here?.
Basing on the candlesticks chart and the SHS formation, once the share price cut through the neckline it will remain in its course and continue with its fall. The quantum of fall is equal to the distance from the neckline to the head. That average up to about 20sen considering PTRB has a lower and higher head.

7 If the chart is observed and accepted as a guide, than the share price could eventually slide from 45 sen minus 20 sen and technically settle at 25 sen.

8. Is this possible in the coming months?
Share valuation is base on earning basis. That means only profit will drive up share price. Fundamentally, according to PTRB's filing with Bursa, its 1Q profit was 7.5m, 2Q 8.3M and 3Q 1.9m. We are not insider and we do not have a clue on its final quarter earnings. The easiest way is to annualize the profit base on the three quarters available earnings.
Hence,[ (7.5+ 8.3+1.9) / 3 ] x 4 is 23.6m

9 The issued share capital of PTRB is 535m and therefore the prospective year end earnings per share EPS is 23.6/535 = 4.4 sen.

Now, let's look at the share price and PE of several companies in the similar industry.
CAB 66 SEN pe 5.69X
TEO SENG 90 SEN PE 7.27X
LHI 57 SEN PE 9.59X
CCK 73 SEN PE 6.9X
LAY HONG 30 SEN PE7.97X

The average PE of these companies is 37.42 / 5 is 7.48x
If ptrb is valued at PE 7.48x of its EPS than, its year end value would be 33 sen.

10 Fundamentally it could be worth 33 sen and technically basing on SHS chart it could slip further to 25 sen.

11. This is just a guesstimate and it is hopeful that you have been enlightened and informed and benefited from an alternative view and perception of the counter.

12. It is not intended to dampen your investing spirit. My analysis could also turn to be horribly incorrect.

1.Investors had downgraded Hap Seng and its share price had retreated and hugely diminished in the last two months. Yesterday, it announced its 1st Q result and the company suffered a 67.5% profit reduction compare to last year corresponding quarter and a 46% lower in comparison with the preceding quarter.

2. The company recorded decline in revenue and profit in all segments of business operation in particular the contribution from HS plantation was hugely diminished arising from falling price of Crude Palm Oil

3.Going forward the company sentiment will be rattled by the continued falling CPO price and loss of revenue from the disposal of Manchester Credit Leasing,raising cost of fertilizer and higher cost of operations.

4. The fall in share price is a direct reflection of its reduction in revenue and diminishing profit performance.

5.On 27th May it hit an intra-day low of 401 and a high of 427 to closed at 4.12 down 12 sen post result announcement. The counter is still struggling hard to find its bottom.

6. It is difficulty to estimate how low the price can go. Hap Seng is a counter designated for Restricted Short Sale with total short position exceeding 9.8m shares. The short sellers are still active and hence, there is no sign of its bottoming.

7. Considering that the 52 weeks share price has fallen from 830 to 401 or a loss of Rm10.6b in market capital, the downside in my opinion is limited.

8. In the days to come, HS will find its bottom and prices will consolidate and stabilize until the next quarter.

9. It is heart warming and comforting to note that HS has also declared a 10 sen dividend that would go EX on 8th of June and payable on 22nd of June 2023.
This would in some way cushion the fall.

10. I think all the loyal investors had an excruciatingly painful experience and suffered enormous financial losses.

11. In anyway the company is still profitable. The business is sustainable. At 412 it is trading at 12x PE multiply in which many would believe it is a fair price.

All the best and happy trading.

1. Radium is due for listing on 31st May at an IPO price of 50sen per share. The company is selling 868m new shares by public issue. There is no offer for sales by principle owners and major share holders.

2. The enlarged issued share capital after listing is 3.46b shares. At 50sen a share the market capital immediately upon listing is RM1.73b.

3.To facilitate the listing exercise, the initial capital investment of RM42.4m by the owners was restructured and enormously enlarged to 2.6b shares at 50sen a share.

4. This also means the listing exercise has enriched the owners from 42m to Rm1.3b. If this is not crazy, what is?
5.While Page 11 of the prospectus highlights the enlarged issued capital it did not describe the process of enlargement done magically.

6. Subscribers could only guess the enlarged capital was attained through capitalization of retained earnings and revaluation surplus.

7. According to the prospectus, the EPS of the enlarged capital of 3.46b shares is 2.93 sen. The IPO price of 50 sen would value Radium at a PE multiple of 17x.
The Net tangible assets of Radium upon listing is 23 sen. Hence, it is selling at 2.17x price to book value.

8.I am of the opinion that at PE multiple of 17x ,the company is more than fully value compare to other newly listed companies that traditionally command between 9x to 11x price earnings. With this inordinately high PE and disproportionately priced IPO, the promoters take all the money and leave nothing on the table.

9. Two (2) times price to book value is excessively high as many well known and great construction companies are trading well below book value.

10. Therefore Radium's valuation is at its peak even at the onset and post- listing.

11.Considering all the above, it is not surprising that the IPO response is tepid. Applications had closed and balloting done and issuing house had announced 100% success rate which is unique and peculiar.

12. I think the upside potential is very limited on listing day. It would be a blessing if it does not fall below IPO price and end up with a red histogram on the candlesticks chart.

13. This is my personal perception and it is not intended to dampen the investing spirits and passion of your successful application and allotment.
14 Good luck and all the best

1. The bear has come out from hibernation after a short period of rest and recuperation and ready to charge again in DNex

2. On April 14th the 9day moving average line has crossed over the 26day MA line from above to below and the gap between the 2 lines continue to widen.
The candlesticks chart recorded consecutive red histogram in the last 6 six trading days and fallen persistently below both the moving average lines. The worst is yet to come.

3. The relative strength index RSI is now at 24 the bearish and oversold level which is a far cry away from the 45 points level on 14th April when the MA lines intersected.

4. Basing on the candlesticks chart, the MA lines and RSI indicators clearly confirm the counter is under enormously severe stress.

5. The bears went on a rampage and caused rapid destruction in share price with volumn and volatility.

6. One must be mindful, for the counter in my opinion has yet to find its bottom. If you must trade, than great care and prudence must be exercised. The counter is exciting and yet challenging. Any misstep could be fatal.

7 With the current pessimism and bearish sentiment surrounding the semi conductors and waffle industry and with MPI reporting a loss quarter, it is high improbable for Dnex to report good result with great earnings. And earnings is the strongest catalyst that uplift share price.

8. In the absence of earnings, a V shape and immediate price recovery is not expected.
Hence, your indulgence with DNex could end up being a long term investor with diminishing return.

9. Be cautious and trade wisely.

short sellers are still active this morning. Continue to rampage. Create havoc and destruction.

1. In Mar 2023, PTRB had a massive fall from an intra day high of 68.5 sen to 46.5 sen. As what we have expected, since than the counter has consolidated and traded in a range between 51 sen and 45 sen.

2. On Apr 14th, the 9 day and 26 day moving average lines intercepted. And sadly a huge attempt by the bulls to cross over the 26 day moving average line ended up in futility. With that unsuccessful phenomenon, the upwards momentum has ceased.

3.The daily trading price began to weaken and the gap between the 9day and 26day moving average lines has alarmingly widened.

4. In the last 5 days of trading, prices had been falling faster and decisively broken below both the 9 and 26 day MA.
5. According to the candlesticks chart and its various indicators, this is a bearish signal, strong and clear indication that going forward price will continue to weaken preceding a greater fall.

6. With RSI at 41 level ,the bears are active. Further havoc could bring it down to 25
points level in which case the price would move further south and be unthinkable.

7. At 46 sen the counter is trading at 10.4x price earning and at the bottom price between the range with diminishing daily volume. The lackluster transaction and declining volume indicate that the key player is gone.

8. In the absence of any positive corporate news, business and project announcement, market is anxiously awaiting the forthcoming quarter result announcement. A less than favorable result and a missed quarter in earning would further deteriorate the share price.
9. Stock market and share price move in advance of economic fundamental, corporate news and earnings announcement.
10 The current weakness and falling prices could be a precursor for greater calamity and distress in the coming days.

1. In less than 2 months, the share price of Dnex has fallen continually and spectacularly from 63s in Mar to 43s this morning. The fall continues with volume and volatility and the bearish market sentiments persisted strongly.
2. Considering the massive sell down, it is quite likely that the market is reacting in advance of a possible loss quarter in the forthcoming quarterly announcement.

3. Market reacts more negatively to potential or perceived bad news. Given the severity and quantum of sudden collapse and the continued bearish sentiment surrounding Dnex, it is unlikely that the counter would experience a V shape rebounce in the immediate term.
4. At the time of writing there is no signs of the counter bottoming. In the coming days it will continue to find its bottom and thereafter the counter will consolidate and trade sideways.Hence, there is no need to rush into buying.

5. If you have an enormous risk appetite and must buy to aggressively seek out for adventure and excitement, than you must wait for the 1st day of bottom reversal basing on the candlesticks chart.
6. In simplicity, it means you will buy on the day at the price at 4:45 pm during pre closing in which case one would know the counter will close with a green candlestick bar for the day. Good luck and best wishes.
7 In my opinion, this is a falling knife and there is no need to rush into visibly potential trouble.

The share price performance of MN over the past 3 weeks has been spectacular and commendable. The company has been listed for less than a year with IPO price at 21 sen. The shares initially fell to a low of 19.5 sen and recovered quickly above its offer price of 21sen and reached its peak at 40 sen.

2. Market chase up the share on the announcement of free warrant. After its 1 for 2 bonus issue of free warrants, the share price was adjusted to {(2x40)+20}/3 is 33sen.

3.Following its trip as a business delegates with PMX to china and successfully signed MOU with china base company to exploit the development and construction of data center in Malaysia, market again chased up the share price.

4. Two weeks ago it announced it had received a letter of award for 13.3 M from RSSB, market again chased up the share.

5 Today after market MN makes the announcement that it had secured a 2nd project as sub contractor for RSSB related to EPCC for natural gas distribution system for Proton. Market again chased up the price early morning to hit an intraday high of 37.5sen.
Unfortunately it lost its momentum and close at 36 sen flat over huge volumn traded.
It looks like the bull has over worked and somewhat overwhelmed with fatigue.

6 From hereon and going forward how does the share price perform we really do not know.

7. In anyway if you had acquire 200k shares at IPO price of 21 sen, you initial investment is RM42000. And after the bonus issue you would receive 100k free warrant. Basing on the today's closing price of 16 sen and 36 sen for warrant and mother share respectively, you investment value has ballooned and sky rocketed to
( 200000x0.36 ) + (100000 x0.16 )=88,000.
The return on investment is [ ( 88000 - 42000 )/42000 ] = 1.09 or 109%

8 In less than a year, the directors and the superb management team of MN have delivered impressively and double your money. The share price performance is remarkable and praise worthy.

9 Yet we have to be cautious. No matter how good a company may be its share price cannot go up indefinitely.

It takes time and patients ,energy and passion to expand and grow in revenue and profitability. When it happens, the counter is due for a re-rating.

2.So, if tomorrow or in the week to come, when the share price goes up by 2 sen or tumble 3 sen it is really not representative of MN and much less define it. Those are the unavoidable and common noises in the market and it is coming from the disposal of those weak shareholders. Not to be fearful and neither would you need to be concern. Just hold onto your position and stay invested.

3.Credits must be given to the management for in less than a years into its listing it has managed to increase its order book from 178m to 356m. This will keep the company busy for the next 2 years.
4. There was substantial rise in revenue from 27m in the preceding quarter to 41m in the current quarter and profit from 1.19m to 2.58m. If the positive trend persists, we will see increasing profit and earnings in the coming few quarters.

5.The company has successfully secured 2 new projects related to data center and thus has enlarged its customers base and diversified its business into other sectors of industries to reduce risk arising from over dependent on a single big client and avoid transacting business that is constraint in one industry.
6 signed MOU in conjunction with PMX visit to china with prominent Chinese company for the construction of data center.
7.Secure the interest and confidence of Proven Venture Capital an assets management company to become a substantial shareholders. From the company's announcement of DBT on Bursa, they probably had acquired the shares at 38sen.

8.These are some of the quality things the management has managed to do in the short span of time. Though we may not know, I believe there could be more projects in the pipelines.

KUALA LUMPUR: MN Holdings Bhd has teamed up with China's Shanghai DC-Science Co Ltd to develop its first high-performance data centre in Malaysia.

On April 1, MN Holdings' wholly owned subsidiary Mutu Nusantara Sdn Bhd inked a memorandum of understanding with DC-Science, which would make it the China outfit's Malaysian partner.

In a statement, the underground utilities and substation engineering specialist said the project, which carries an estimated value of US$600mil, is part of a series of foreign direct investments secured for Malaysia in conjunction with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s maiden visit to China on March 30 to April 2, 2023.

After the result announcement and less than attractive financial performance, PTRB will go into consolidation with share price trading within a range in the coming months until the next quarter announcement. In the meanwhile, there is little value to remain invested and nothing much can be expected from PTR.
Better value can be found elsewhere. There is value in MN Holding. Take a look at it and think about it.

1.MN has been on an uptrend ever since its IPO and listing. It has moved from 21 sen to a height of 40 sen to complete the 1st leg of its uptrend. After the bonus issue of 1 free warrant ( exercise price 20 sen ) for 2 existing shares, the shares price has retracted to a low of 25 sen to complete the 2nd retraction leg.

2.Last week the counter was on the onset of the 3rd up leg. And this week with 3 consecutive green histograms over considerably big volume the counter is now confirmed and well advance into its uptrend and raising 3rd leg.

3. Yesterday,on 29th march, technically the counter had a beautiful and remarkable Golden Cross in which the 9 day moving average has crossed over from below to above the 26 day moving average. The share price has been raising faster than before and broke through both the 9 and 26 day MA lines.

4,In technical analysis, a golden cross is a technical indicator that signals the possibility of a significant rise.

5.The counter has managed to attract some market interest. There are strength of visible accumulation. Volume has increased and share price inched up slowly.

6. In my opinion, the uptrend is confirmed and the upward momentum will gather strength in the coming weeks. Better days are realistically expected.
Let's wait and see.

1.Consider yourself smart had you bought the share for 47.5sen in Dec 2022. It was trending upwards and all the way to hit its peak at 68.5sen. There is a 30.6% gain.

2 You can't say the same had you bought it today at 47.5 sen. The reason being that the counter is undergoing and right now in the middle of a major down trend. The worse is yet to come.

3. The collapse in share price over the past weeks clearly explain the 3Q result. Share price move ahead by weeks or months of news and fundamentals.

4 The fact that it bounce back 2sen despite a serious reduction in profit does not in any way alter the bearish candlestick chart.
5.There is no reason to overjoy and celebrate for a counter that has fallen from 68 to 44 and inch up two sen today.

1.The critical determining factor for share price is earning and profit. When a company makes profit the share price will go up. And conversely, it will tumble when a loss is reported.
2. Share valuation is base on earning basis and certainly not dividend basis. Therefore, PTRB dividend policy is unable prevent the price from falling.

3.Look at Topglove, it pays very attractive dividend. However,when the profit is gone, the share price is not sustainable despite its dividend payout.

4. In short, dividend is like the ginger and spring onion on your steam fish.
It looks nice but nobody rush and much less fight over it.

2.The death cross that happened on 1st of march and the gap between the 9-day and 26-day moving averages had widen tremendously. Daily prices is falling faster than the moving average.
3.Today it has decisively pierced through the average line. This is a signal of greater fall to come basing on the interpretation of the candlesticks chart.

4. What is alarming and should not be taken lightly is the comparatively smaller volume traded compare to its active days with huge market participation.
5.The severe reduction in volume traded followed by falling prices tend to convey the message that the key player and its partners had already left the counter with enormous gains.
6. Graphically,the key man had started to unload its shareholdings beginning 16th Feb for 4 consecutive days over huge volume and again on 2nd march.

7.The sentiment for PTRB remains bearish and from hereon price could fall further and the quantum of fall will be impacted by the quarterly result and financial performance.

8. There is nothing wrong with the company. It is well managed and the business is profitable.
9.It is just that someone has identified the good company, played up the news,attracted huge retails participation, pushed up the share price, took advantage of the ignorance, sold out to take profit and caught many by surprise.
10.This is my personal perception of the counter.
27/3/23

1.Candlesticks technical chart remain very bearish. Nothing has changed since 14th. Mar. In addition the moratorium of a substantial numbers of IPO shares will be lifted tomorrow.
2.Weakness in share price expected. In the coming days if the announcement of quarterly result is below market expectation, prepare for pain.

1. BSL has 75m share capital. On the completion of the fund raising exercise with right issues and free warrant the company has successfully raised additional 91m cash. Hence, the share capital has increased from 75m to 166m and the number of issued shares had ballooned 1.95b shares.
2. Together with the retained earnings and adding up the others reserve, the company has total equity of 241m.
3. The definition of PN17 implies that a company has continued to incur losses to the extent that its total equity is reduced to less than 25% of share capital with no or little working capital and cash balances. In simplicity, it means the company has lost 75% of its capital.
4 In the case of BSL it has 166m capital. Therefore, the threshold of PN17 would be 166m x 0.25 is 41.4m. BSL now has 241m in equity. That means it can continue to burn200m to fall into pn17. IF the company announces 10m losses year after year that would also take 20 years to kill them. Be care with what you write and try to support it with facts and numbers.
5. According to the circular dispatched to shareholders and to make a fair comment without negative bias, BSL has 12sen in net tangible assets, strong balance sheet and after the fund raising exercise it has added an unthinkable and yet it is true an amount of 91m cash in its bank balances.
6. So, It is indeed laughable that its share price closed at 4sen today. The explanation for this would be the value of a company and its share price does not depend on the value of its assets. It depends on the ability of the management to utilize the assets to generate revenue and profit. And sadly BSL has none. Share price and its valuation are based on earning basis and not assets basis.
7 Until BSL begin to make profit it will remain as a pathetic penny stock. In case you are not aware just more than a year ago BSL was trading near Rm1.45 and today it closes at 4sen. It is not children’s playground but a high risk and dangerous battle field. You could lose an arm or a leg. This is BSL.
8. In its last 10 years of business operations it has generated multi years of losses and even on the year that it made profit it was negligible. They are good at fund raising.
9. Now, the management has additional 91m cash at its disposal have you any idea how it would be spent. Are you not worry and concern?
10. Well, if you elect monkeys to provide security and safety to your bananas you must be prepared to be ridiculed and faced embarrassments.
15/3/2023

What is the price of warrant when it starts trading tomorrow?

1.Those who followed through the fund raising exercise would have subscribed 12k right shares at 5.5sen per share and received 5k free warrants.

2.Their cost of investment would be 12x55 is Rm660. Given that the closing price today is 5sen, therefore their shareholding has fallen to Rm600. There is a loss of Rm60

3.Warrant has two components value and that is the intrinsic value and time value. Given that the exercised price has been fixed at 5.5 sen,which is higher than the mother share it therefore has no intrinsic value.
4.So,the BSL warrant only has time value for a period of 5 years. How much is the time value is truly difficult to ascertain.

5. Instead we can look at it from this angle. The subscriber to the rights shares has lost Rm60 from the 12k share one has subscribed. And that means for each lot subscribed one would lose Rm5. Logically what is lost in the mother share must be compensated by an equal amount in the new warrants. Therefore the warrant is worth 0.5 or half sen.

6.The market may be willing to pay a small premium for the time value. Even it it happens, it will take a miracle for it to trade at any price greater than 2 sen. This is my personal perception. It may not be correct.

Happy Trading

1.Silicon Valley Bank wound up. World Market, Stock Market, Everything Everywhere All At Once collapsed. PTRB burst out and bungee dive vertically towards the red ocean.

2. It opened at 50sen, inched upwards at 52.5sen and plunged to an intraday low of 44.5 sen and closed the day at 45.5sen.

3PTRB is trending on the candlesticks charts of a bear flag. Today at 45sen closing, it has broken the flag and smashed through the pennants from the upside to the downside with volume and volatility. Clearly the bears had rested and recovered its strength causing havoc again.

4. In the coming days, it will continue to charge more aggressively and violently. Enormous fall and greater damage are realistically expected basing on the technical analysis of candlesticks chart.

5. Share investments is not all the time about making profit. It is also about avoiding a loss from a counter that looks so palatable that you did not invest and ultimately turns out to be most deceiving and deceptive.

6. This posting is not a sarcasm and unintended to rub salt on a wound. Rather it is an attempt to forewarn that the worse is yet to come.

7. Be safe and avoid great exposure to danger.

1PTRB had a spectacular bull run and price shot up sharply from 36sen to 68.5sen in the last 3 months. However, on 16/2/23 it experienced a first day reversal and price began to fall from its peak of 68.5sen over 4 consecutive days to hit a low of 57sen. Over the next five 5 trading days it recovered briefly to 63sen.

2 The bears resumed its course on 28/2/23 in which over 3 days PTRB had a sharp vertical price fall from 63sen to intraday low of 49.5sen and closed at 50sen. In the candlesticks chart this was the flag pole.
3 Thereafter, and over the next few days it consolidated in a parallel channel of ups and downs to form a flag. PTRB is now trending in a bear flag candlesticks chart pattern. Bear flag signals gloomy prospect and falling prices.

4 When the bears have rested enough and recovered its strength in the next few days or weeks, they will resume its rampage and further crash down the price.

5 The Company is expected to announce its 3Q result in March. Nothing except a set of good result could help to avoid the fall and salvage the damage. Otherwise, the collapse will be magnified.
6 Let the buyers beware and Caveat Emptor. Trade cautiously

1MN Holding has been listed more than a year ago. The initial public offer price was 21 Sen. Historically, the share price has hit 19.5sen low and peak at 40 sen. During this period the company has rewarded its long term and loyal shareholders with bonus issue of free warrants. For every existing 2 shares, you are entitled to receive 1 free warrant that has gone Ex and traded just two days ago.
2 If you had acquired 2 lots at 21 sen, your investment capital would be Rm420. You now have 2k shares trading at 28.5 sen and the warrant is price at 11 sen. The value of your investment slightly more than a year is valued at 2 x 285 =570 and 1k warrant is worth 110. Thus, the total value is Rm680. The value of your investment in MN has grown (680 – 420)/ 420 = 62%. A whopping 62%
3 Where do we go from here and what can be expected from MN?
In the 1Q the profit after tax was 1.19m over 27m revenue. In the 2Q revenue has jumped sharply to 41m and PAT increased to 2.58m. Considering that MN has secured strong order book of 356m with earning viability until 2025,it is therefore reasonably expected that the 3 Q could be better and final quarter stronger.

4 Basing on the positively increasing trend in revenue and profit, plus the energy and passion of the management to drive up revenue and push bottom line, a profit of 4m or even higher is realistically achievable in the coming few quarters. Thus the earning per share EPS will increase. The PE price earning multiple will compress and share price will continue to make advancement.
5 Notice that last month two directors disposed a total of 35m shares at 38 sen via off market transactions. This has created some worries and concern to the public minority shareholders. It is unnecessary. At some point in time when the price is right directors would sell and cash out to reward themselves for their hard work. It is not abnormal and not alarming. People do make adjustment to their portfolio and shareholding to realign with their current situation and preference from time to time.

6 Besides, the directors collectively hold 70% of the entire issued share capital. The shares are tightly held and in control thus rendering the counter relatively illiquid. This disposal is indeed healthy and would help to improve the liquidity and daily volume traded.

7 The company has made progress and the management has done well. This time it has managed to attract the attention of the Funds and Venture Capitalist. The company’s list of quality shareholders now include Proven Venture Capital PLT. Next target would be institutions and pension Fund.

8 The inclusion of Proven Venture Capital as substantial shareholders in MN and its continued existence with more than 20m shares is a comfort to minority shareholders. They are smart professionals managing investors’ fund and portfolio. They invest in young and dynamic companies with huge potential and enormous earning growth. They sure know more things about MN that we don’t know in its prospect and future, revenue and earnings growth and projects in the pipelines.

9 So, just invest with them.
I believe the next 2 quarters will be exciting and rewarding.
9/3/2023

1. Directors and insiders purchases are a sign of confidence and positive conviction in the prospects and future earning growth of the company. These are the people who know best and have the most up to date information about their company. Hence, directors buying its own company shares and continuing in its efforts are certainly bullish.

2 According to the announcement, on 28th Feb Dato Toh acquired a total of 530m shares from the open market. Thereafter, MN surged upwards for 4 consecutive days from 25 sen to close at 29 sen today. That is 16% gain.
3. There is still money to be made if you dare. So,hop onto the wagon and ride freely with Dato and profit from it.

1Basing on the technical candlesticks chart for PTRB,, the MACD line has crossed below the Signal line on the 20th Feb 2023. This is a bearish indicator and the momentum is likely to persist on. In addition, the gap between the MACD and Signal line continue to widen as indicated by the larger red histograms. The bearish momentum is building up fast and will gather strength in the coming days.
2 Two days ago the counter experienced massive sell down over huge volume. It has collapse from 59.5 sen to close for the day at 50sen with intraday low of 49.5 Sen. Technically, it has established a Death cross on 2nd Mar 2023 in which the 9 day Moving Average line has crossed over the 20 day Moving Average line from above to below and fast approaching the 50 day moving average.
3 A death cross is an important signal that should not be taken lightly and much less ignored. It is a trading pattern and chart formation that point towards the transition from the bull market to a bear market. Hence, PTRB is currently undergoing severe stress and weakness.
4 Further, the Relative Strength Index RSI concurred with the similar bearish sentiment as indicated by the death cross and MACD and Signal lines indicators. The RSI is currently below 50 and gradually heading towards the oversold level. The bear will continue to charge and take control. Injuries, bruise and pain had inflicted. Going forward blood anticipated.
5 PTRB has enjoyed a mini bull run since its debut on Bursa. The bullish uptrend has reached its peak at 68.5sen and cooling off for a little while. It decline has begun and the downwards momentum will gather strength with accelerated speed in the coming days.
This is my technical analysis basing on the candlesticks chart and various technical indicators. It is just an expression of my personal opinion and it is not intended to influence anyone’s trading plan and investment strategy.
4/3/2023

1PTR has a spectacular fall today over huge volume. In the last 10 trading days it has fallen from a height of 68 sen to close today at 50sen. In percentage term, the share price has collapsed 27%. Basing on the fierce thrown down, it seems that the momentum of decline will persist resolutely.
2 PTR has 535m issued capital. The current 4 qtr running EPS is 5.92sen. At 50sen it is trading at a PE of 8.43x. It has a strong balance sheet and health financial ratios. The company has (93.84+10.63) 104.47m cash and bank balances but 46m in borrowings. According to its dividend policy, the company aspires to pay out 20% of its earning. It is in the food industry. The business is sustainable. In fact it is flourishing with the signing of MOU just 2 days ago.
3 In a nutshell, there is nothing wrong with this company. So, what happen? How to explain the brutal sell down today?.
4 From the listing circular PTR is listed on 27/9/2022. It has 535m share capital of which 380m is in the hands of the founder and principle shareholders. There was no offer for sale during IPO and that means the founder did not cash out. And hence, have not truly benefitted from the listing exercise. These380m shares are subject to 6 months moratorium ending 27th March. That means it cannot be traded and therefore at the onset only 155m shares or less are in circulation.
5. With such small number of shares in circulation PTR could become an easy target of control and manipulation. It is not impossible for the manipulator to scope up the share of penny stock and somewhat corner the counter and dictate the price at their fancy. It has happened. The feeling has been euphoric.
6.However,the music and party cannot go on indefinitely. Everything has a beginning and ending. They must find a reason to end the ball. The operators are aware that in the coming weeks the moratorium will be lifted and 139m owner shares could potentially flood the market. Today’s brutal sell down could be a deliberate exercise to frustrate any game plan after 27th March.
7. In addition, the current monsoon session and heavy rain and serious flooding in many parts of Malaysia particular in area where PTR has production operation will be affected. Supply of fish and all kinds of sea food could be disrupted. This would affect negatively on production, deliveries, sale and ultimately profit of the company. Investors are rushing out and creating a deadly stampede.
8. This explains the swift ascent and steep decline in share price over the past trading days.
9. This is my personal perception of the counter and it does not reflect the true market situation and much less the endeavor of market participation.
10. it is written and posted for your reading pleasure.
2/3/2023

1. I do not have shares in Penergy but have the itch and desire to write an opinion and post it.
2. Penergy has just announced its 4th quarter result. It reported a revenue of 110m and a profit after tax of 7.9m which is less than market expectation. It is therefore,not entirely wrong to say Penergy had a missed quarter performance.

3.Nonetheless, on a full year basis the company has managed to achieve a revenue of 370m and generated a profit after tax of 13.07m
4. The company has issued share capital of 321m. Its earning per share is 4.06 sen. At the current price of 83 sen, it is therefore trading at a price earning multiple of 21.78x
5. Considering that the Bursa PE is between 13x to 15x, Penergy is thus somewhat fully valued.
6. The company has a sound and strong balance sheet. Its net tangible assets is 1.21.
7. For the current year it has paid out 2 sen dividend and also declared another 3 sen final dividend in the 4th quarter.
8. The company has a surprisingly impressive cash and bank balances of a massive amount of Rm184.8m. And more impressively, it has no long term debts and borrowings but short term liabilities of Rm36m that does not have significant financial burden and impact.

9. Despite its less than favorable profit performance, Petra was able to generate a remarkable and commendable net cash flow from its operating activities of a massive amount of Rm65.69m

10. On the whole, the company's business is still profitable and sustainable. It has a healthy balance sheet with sound financial ratios. The business continued to generate free and net cash flow.
11. The 4th quarter less than impressive profit performance is just a temporary setback.
12. A knee jerk sell down is not unexpected. Nevertheless, it is not surprising.

13. Therefore the sell down and fall in price is not alarming. In stead it opens up an opportunity for you to buy cheap for long term value investing.

14 This is my personal perception and opinion of the counter. It may be wrong. Trade cautiously.

26/2/2023

MN closed at 35 sen yesterday. The counter has gone X and shareholders are entitled to the free warrants.This morning the adjusted reference price is 35 x 2+ 20 all divided by 3 is 30 sen.
2.When trading began, the counter exhibited weakness and share price fell sharply to hit 25.5 sen in the morning over moderate volume. Many saw the opportunity for a cheap bargain.
3. Buying support returned and the momentum gather strength and the counter closed for the day at 29.5 sen or half sen below the reference price over considerably huge volume.
4. Basing on the volume and pattern of trade, the bulls are obviously active and charging. They will spare no effort to secure a good price for the warrants to be listed and quoted in the coming days.

5. And that means the underlying shares must perform.

6 Technically, MN undergoes a price pattern of a hammer in the candlesticks chart. A hammer happens when the share price trade significantly lower than its opening price but rallies within the period to close near the opening price.

7.MN mirrors this trading pattern. It opened at 29.5 sen and quickly fell and hit 25.5sen and bounced back to close at 29.5 sen to form a hammer. Technical hammer is a potential bullish reversal.

8 Hence, price will continue to strength and is realistically expected to recover lost ground in the coming days leading towards the listing of warrants.

9 Still there is money to be made if you dare.

10. This is my personal perception of the counter

24/2/2023

MN holding has announced its 2Q result today.
It reported a 57% jump in revenue and 115% increase in profit

2. It has order book of 325.9m an increase of 89% from 172.2m since listing.

3. Management envisions a bright prospect for the company and the contracts are expected to contribute positively over the next 2 to three financial years.

4.Market believes the positive result will sustain the current share price and may be even elevates it further upwards.

20/2/23

1.Yes, it is effortlessly possible. It is happening and yet surprisingly not many are interested in this counter. The price you had wished for and may be even better will be accomplished when it moves closer to the x date. \

2.The substance in MNHolding is in the forthcoming warrant. It is structured and created in a manner to reward and benefit the owner and his long term loyal investors. It could be you and for those who dare.

3.For 2 existing shares you are given 1 free warrant on 24th Feb 2023. Its conversion price has been fixed at 20 sen.

4. Assuming today is the x date for the purpose of analysis,and at the current price of 38.5 sen the reference price would be[ (2 x 38.5) + 20 ] / 3 is 32.5 sen
Therefore the warrant tentatively has an intrinsic value of 32.5 minus 20 = 12.5 sen.

5 It could be better because warrant has a conversion price and a maturity date.
And hence, it has an intrinsic value plus a time value.

6.Trading in warrants in highly lucrative owing to its high gearing.
High gain is naturally associated with high risk.
Therefore, trade cautiously and great care must be exercised.
Do you still want the MNHolding warrants?.

12/2/23

After much anticipation,MN Holding finally announced the X date for the bonus issue of free warrant. For every 2 existing shares you hold until market close on 23/2/23 you are entitled to 1 free warrant on the 24th Feb.

Over the past few weeks, the share price has gone up a few sen. Naturally, the bonus will sustain the elevated share price. With a bit of luck, it might even advance further upwards.
9/2/23

1.Share price of MN holding has gradually advanced since 2 months ago in December.. Its momentum has gather strength and consistently throttled upwards. Yesterday it has firmly conquered new height with moderate volume.

2.The path going upwards is supported by the reward of the forthcoming bonus issues of free warrants.
3.Bursa has approved the bonus issue. EGM has been convened and shareholders approval obtained. Market is awaiting its announcement of the entitlement date and X date any time soon.

4.MN holding has been relatively quiet and illiquid since listing. It has only recently exhibited some interest and excitement in the market.

5. Technically, it has established a golden cross and the distance between the 20 day and 50 day moving average continue to widen. Therefore the long term uptrend is expected to continue. At 35 sen, the price which is now above the 9 day 20 day and 50 day moving averages is a sign of strength and has further prospects of advancement.

6. Likewise, the MACD line has also crossed the signal lines. we can expect the MACD line and signal line to again widen in the coming days indicated by the larger green histograms. The positive momentum is expected to continue.

7. Fundamentally, the company has Rm365m worth of projects and orders on hand with earning viability until 2025.

8. With these orders on hand top line and bottom line as well as future earning growth are realistically expected.

9. Market is awaiting its announcement of x date and the date of entitlement of free warrant. The bonus issue is positive and price sensitive.
When this happens, the share price will be turbocharged.

10. Hence, it is unwittingly wasteful to further delay in action and miss out on the golden opportunity.

Happy trading.
4/1/2023

1.Today waseong opened and raised strongly during the trading session. It opened at 75 sen and reached an intra day high of 81.5 sen and thereafter experienced a massive sell down to close flat at 75 sen over huge volume exceeding 24 million shares.

2. In the candlestick chart the price movement and trading takes the shape and pattern of a shooting star or invert hammer.

3. Shooting star is a bearish candlestick in an uptrend as in Waseong. Clearly, profit taking has set in and the uptrend has lost and continued loosing its upwards momentum.

4. The implication of a shooting star signify that a reversal pattern has begun and will accelerate in the coming days.

5. Further selling and weakness in price is realistically expected.

6. Technical has prominently overshadowed fundamental.
2/2/23

1. In the last 3 years Waseong had a spectacular fall from 1.45 in mid 2020 and hit bottom at 40 sen in 2021. Thereafter, it consolidated within a range of between 55 sen sen to 80 sen until July 2022.

2. Since then, the counter has staged a mini bull run and a confirmed uptrend supported by the announcement of project and award in the oil & gas industry from Yinson which is valued at 557.6 m.

3. The uptrend and its 1st leg began at 55 sen and soared to reach 68 sen for a gain of
13 sen. The 2nd leg which is a correction leg saw the counter retracted to 62 sen. That is a decline of 6 sen or 46%.

4.Early Jan it resumed its uptrend and kicked into the 3rd leg which is an up leg. Price has moved from 62 sen,and decisively broke the resistance at 68 sen and aggressively pushed upwards to reach an intra-day height of 77.5 sen to close the day at 75 sen which was down by 1.5 sen.
5. Technically, the trading day on 31st Jan is represented by a prominent red bar in the candle stick chart. This red bar is known as the 1st day reversal of the 3 leg uptrend. Those who rely on technical analysis to trade would have sold at 75 sen before market closed.
6.If there is any truth with technical analysis it also means the 4th leg which is a correction leg has kicked in yesterday. How much is the correction and by how much price will fall before its resume its uptrend and accelerate into the 5th leg.

7. The 2nd leg retraction was 46% but the 4th leg retraction would usually be mild because the uptrend has been confirmed and advanced into it course. Investors are conscious and aware of the project, company prospects and future earnings.

8. Many will hold onto the shares and endure the fall. If this observation is served as a guidance share price would arbitrarily retract milder say 35%.
Now, 35% of 15 sen is 5.5 sen. If you take 77.5 sen minus 5.5 sen that would mean 72 sen .
9. Technically, it will hit 72 sen or maybe slightly lower before the counter will resume its 5th leg uptrend. From thereon it can possibly go sky high unless impacted by a fundamental change that has a material impact on the profit performance and earning per share.
10. This is my personal perception and technical opinion of the counter and it is not intended to influence your trading strategy and investment plan.
1/2/2023

To a serious investor who cares about fundamental would easily realize that this company has little or no investment merits. They made many missteps to destroy the capital structure by enlarging the shares capital and decimated to negative earning per share to become eternally a penny stock.
I have written and posted a write up here on 12th June 2021. To the die hard supporters of Tawin it offers an alternative view.

1. Yes and truly we don't know why and much less understand its decline and continued weakness in its share price. In my opinion the current share price does not reflect its profit performance its fundamental and future value of the company.

2. Hence, the continued weakness in share price actually opens up an opportunity for you to invest in a great company at a fair price. The jewel of Sunway is in the health care business. It is profitable, scalable and sustainable.

3.Share investment is about buying a good stock, ignore the noise and holding onto it with endurance and perseverance. Sunway has all the ingredients of a long term value investing stock.

4.When they have a corporate exercise to raise fund by issuing Sunway PA, I wrote about it and invested in it. The Sunway PA has its shortcoming. It is absolutely boring and highly illiquid.

5. But, no one is complaining. At 155 it has grown 55% in 2 years. Investors are collecting 5.25% yearly interest and fearlessly waiting for it to mature and be naturally converted into mother share. The number of issued preference share is 997m and Tan Sri and Family is holding 70%.
Can it go wrong?. You be the judge.
20/1/2023

Tomorrow Jan 13th company will convene EGM to obtain shareholders approval to approve the bonus issue of 204,375,000 free warrant on the basis of 1 free warrant for 2 existing shares held on an entitlement date.
This is a kind gesture by the management to reward its long term shareholders. The corporate exercise would firmly support the share price.

Disagree.
Would appreciate if you could kindly share what is fundamentally good about this company.

1.When insiders are buying,do not ignore the implications of their action. More often than not they know some things of changes in value about the company which you are not aware.

2. When the investment bank initiate a coverage or issue a technical analysis and trading idea 2 days ago,do not underestimate its power and influence. They have followers.

3. When the volume increase and the funds start buying, it is not a one off transaction for some contra profit. They will follow through with energy and passion plus a deep pockets.
5/1/2023

1. On 9th Dec Tunepro had a golden cross between the 9-day EMA and the 20-DAY EMA. This signals a short term bullish outlook. In additional again on 21st Dec another golden cross was formed and this time between the 20-day EMA and 50- day EMA thus, indicating a long term bullish outlook.

2. Tunepro closed at 31.5sen with intra day height of 33sen is above the
9-day,20 -day and 50- day moving average. It has demonstrated excellent strength in share price performance. It is hope that the momentum would persist and raise above the 200 day moving average to firmly determine the beginning of a new uptrend.

3. The MACD line crossed from below to above the signal line on 9 Dec. The gap between the 2 lines has also widen and accompanied by larger histograms. Hence, positive momentum is building up and continuing.

4. The Price- Volumn Analysis; This rise in share price these past few days was accompanied by comparatively higher volume traded. An increase in price accompanied by higher volume traded confirmed new buying interest and confidence shown to the counter.
5. Therefore,basing on the technical charts and those indicators, it would be wise to maintain the long position and hold onto the shares for longer term value investing.

6. And likewise, it would be unwittingly wasteful and reckless to liquidate the long position prematurely for a tiny profit.
1/1/2023

1. Directors and insiders purchases are a sign of confidence and positive conviction in the prospects and future earning growth of the company. These are the people who know best and have the most up to date information about their company. Hence, directors buying its own company shares and continuing in its efforts are certainly worth examining.
2. One of the greatest investors of all time Peter Lynch was noted as saying that
" insiders might sell shares for any number of reasons, but they buy them for only one ; they think the price will rise"
Hi guys get into action and excitement. Ride on their knowledge and expertise and profit from it.

KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 28): Toyo Ventures Holdings Bhd's units have entered into an interim agreement with a consortium led by Sunway Construction Group Bhd (SunCon) to negotiate details for the consortium to undertake a US$2.2 billion (RM9.73 billion) job for the development of a 2,120 MW coal-fired power plant in Vietnam.

The agreement sets out the framework for negotiations and discussions between the parties to establish the detailed terms and conditions about the contractor's performance in design, engineering, procurement, manufacture, supply, construction, erection, testing and commissioning of the electric generation facility.

1.While operating cash flow is important, free cash flow is more crucial and net cash flow is significantly more critical. Temporarily, SGC has non of the latter two. And they are the heartbeats of business.
2. This is not surprising considering that scg collects its accounts receivable calculated by taking 222m divided by 637 multiply by 365 is 127 days.
3. it pay its accounts payable with lighting speed computed as follows.
Assuming 85% of 637m is purchases or 541m the accounts payable balance is 52m.
so the AP turnovers is 541m divided by 52m is 10.4x in a year or 35days.
4. See they pay creditors in 35 days and receive money from their accounts receivables debtors in 127 days. it is almost suicidal.
5. The accountant has enormous opportunity and room for improvements. More stringent credit control and efficient strategy need to be formulated and implemented to strengthen its collection.
6. otherwise continued and prolonged negative cash flow would require new funding to address the shortfall in working capital requirement. It could be further bank borrowings or corporate exercise of fund raising through right issue or private placement. All of which are discouraged for they are value and share price destruction.

1.The market PE is 13x. SCG is trading at 29 sen and a running 4-quarter earning per share EPS of 1.61 sen. Hence, it is trading at a PE of 18x. That is inordinately and disproportionately higher than the bursa PE. And that rates and ranks SCG more attractive, over and above a blue chip counter.

2 Despite its recent bonus issue of free warrant and numerous announcements of new contracts, sadly its share price has continued on its decline and its daily volume traded has severely reduced. What happens ?
3. The recent announcement that the company has secured 293m power cable supply contract with Tenage; 83m power cable supply with SEB; and its aspiration to export 100m value of cable to the US market is remarkable and commendable. The new business is 476m. Let's take a look at these letters of award and happy problems that come with a burden.

4. In the 3rd quarter ending September the company's revenue was 238m. the cost of goods sold was 225m and gross profit was 12m. Therefore the percentage of CGS and GP is 94% and 6% respectively.
5. To finance 476m new business the company would need 0.94 x 476m and that is 447m to finance raw material requirement and working capital.
6. Notice that the company has a cash balance of 19.7m and generate a negative cash flow of (-29.528m) This means the company needs more cash than the business can generate. The above new order will further aggravate the cash position and working capital requirement that is already distressed.

7 IN 2019 the company has 130m in account receivable. In 2020 the account receivable was 158m and these numbers had ballooned to 199m in 2021 and 222m in the 9- month of 2022. If you take 222m divide by the revenue of 637m multiply by 365 days, the collection period work out to be 127 days. That means it takes the company 4 months plus 7 days to collect payments after delivery. If the speed of collection can be increased and the days of collection can be reduced this would strengthen the working capital.

8. Considering the current situation in which it was awarded huge supply contract, the company has a happy problem that comes with a heavy financial burden. It is not unlikely that the company might have to look at various option to raise fund for working capital and to finance the new business.
9. The company has 197m in borrowings and 283m in total equity. Therefore the gearing is 197 divided by 283 is 69.6%. Sixty percent is considered a high gearing. By accounting standard any numbers beyond 60% signify the company has entered into a red zone

10. It will be interesting to see the next course of actions from the management. Share price will remain depressed and volume lackluster until this matter is resolved.
11. Friend. cut loss and move on. This is my personal perception of the counter.
It may or may not be correct.
