I got this stock from a regular forumer here and wish to add it into my new portfolio.
Share price performance Fibon was listed in Bursa in 2008 at an IPO price of 84.5 sen. Its share price went up to RM1.10 in early 2010 due to the initial good financial performance. However, due to a drop in its net profit by more than 50% for the year ended March 2012, its share price plummeted by more than 40%. Since then it never seems to be able to recover and remained as a fallen angel for a long time. On 2 August 2013, its share price stayed at its low level at 32.5 sen. Figure 1 below shows its historical share price from 18 December 2008 to 2 August 2013.
Figure 1: Historical share price of Fibon
The business Fibon is a technology company that formulates and produces advanced polymer matrix fibre composites and manufacturing and sales of electrical insulators, electrical enclosures and meter boards. It recently launched a new product called Fibon LogicCube (switchboard) which is expected to yield high margins. Main markets are in Malaysia, Singapore and Australia. It is currently applying for pioneer status from MIDA which will give them further tax benefits.
Quality and durability of business Fibon does have a durable business albeit a small one which derives its income mainly from the export market. Did the business of Fibon deteriorated so badly since 2011 when its share price plunged? It doesn’t appear to me so. Its revenue stays quite constant at about 16m for the last 6 years (See Table 1 below). Gross profits also steady at 8-10m a year and gross margin quite constant between 8m to 10 m for the last 6 years. The deterioration is in its net profit margin due to the increase in administration and tax expenses. Net profit margin however is still good at 29% last year, which is 10% above the previous year.
Figure 2: Revenue and profits
Balance sheet Fibon has a healthy balance sheet since listing. It never had to borrow any money as there is adequate amount of free cash flow every year. Total equity attributed to shareholders has been increasing every year as shown in Table 2 below. Its cash holding also increases every year. last year, the cash holding per share amount to 20 sen, or 65% of its NTA.
DuPont Analysis Does Fibon’s business has economic moat? The return of equity of fibon is a good number of 17.1%, higher than the minimum requirement of 15% for most ardent fundamental investors. A DuPont analysis of Fibon is carried out to dissect its ROE.
ROE = NI/E = NI/S * S/TA * TA/E = 29.4% * 0.56 * 1.0 = 17.1% Where NI is net income, E is equity, S is sales/revenue, TA is total assets NI/S is the net profit, S/TA is the asset turnover, TA/E is financial leverage
The main driver of Fibon’s high ROE is hence the high net profit of 29.4%. The asset turnover of 0.56 (<1) and the financial leverage of 1.0 (<1.5) are relatively low. Hence there is plenty of room for Fibon to improve its ROE such as improving its marketing and scouting for more business, or increases its leverage. The return of invested capital of Fibon is particular great at 45.6%, much higher than its costs of capitals.
Fibon also produces excellent cash flow with free cash flow 18% and 26% of revenue and invested capital respectively.
Market Valuation As Fibon has a business which is durable and of quality, one would expect it should be accorded with reasonable good valuation from the market, but does it?
At the price of 32.5 sen, the PE ratio is 6.6 and enterprise value less than two times its Ebit. This may be due to its small market capitalization and hence not a liquid stock. There are only a couple of analysts covering this company. Besides that, one hardly hear anything about this company. However, this could be a good opportunity to invest in a hidden gem at a cheap price. Hopefully when it is slowly discovered in the future, a ugly duckling may turn into a beautiful swan.
So Fibon at 32.5 sen, is the fifth stock in my new portfolio.

CBIP I just went through some announcements in Bursa regarding CBIP. It has recently secured a number of contracts for supplying of equipment and engineering works for a number of palm oil mills, supply, deliver, install, test and commission of Prime Mover vehicles, manufacturing of transportation and construction equipment, concrete moulds and general engineering fabrication for a number of clients at home and abroad in Columbia, Guatemala. Is CBIP going to make a lot of profit from these projects? Is CBIP a good company to invest in? If so is the present price right to enter?
For me to determine if I want to invest in a company, I look at four important aspects; durability, quality, value and growth, their importance roughly follow that order.
Durability A durable business is likely to exist still and still be doing the same thing many years in the future. Palm oil and palm kernel oil are among the world’s most versatile raw materials for a variety of consumer products such as margarine, cereals, crisps, sweets and baked goods, to soaps, washing powders, cosmetics and also in animal feedstuffs and as a bio fuel. As CBIP is mainly tied to the palm oil industry, we would expect the business of CBIP will last for many years to come.
Quality There are a lot of ways to measure business quality. I tend to look at the margins of the business, the return of capitals, and cash flows, all are of equal importance to me.
The margins of CBIP have been reasonably high and most of all considerable consistent throughout the last cycle of 5 years. Average gross margins is good at 22%, and operating and net profit margins great at the mid to high teens (See Table 1).
The ROE is great, averaging about 21% and achieved through the high net profit margin and little leverage. With more contracts in hand now and hence a higher asset turnover, its ROE will likely improve further. Its ROIC is fantastic, averaging 20% for the last 5 years, 29% for last year. this is more than twice the costs of capitals.
The quality of CBIP’s earnings is good too with cash flow from operations about that of net profit. Free cash flow were abundant at double digit percentage of revenue and invested capital. There is plenty of free cash flows each year for it to distribute annual dividends, and carry out some other investments to enhance shareholder value. CBIP has been enhancing shareholder value for all these years as shown in Table 2 below:
Table 2: Change in book value plus dividend Year 2012 2011 2010 2009 2008 2007 Change in book value 0.892 0.675 0.289 0.222 0.297 0.252 Dividend 0.55 0 0.048 0.048 0.048 0.017 Change in BV+dividend,RM 1.442 0.675 0.337 0.270 0.345 0.269
Last year, dividend distributed plus the change in book value amount to a whooping RM1.44, more than half its present share price of RM2.84. Other years were consistent and bad at all when comparing with the share price.
Growth I normally do not pay too much emphasis on growth. I hope to buy a stock which comes with growth potential for free. This is because rosy growth projections often do not come true. Looking at Table 3 in the appendix, it does show that there were good growth for CBIP for the last 6 years. Weren’t there?
CBIP’s revenue and earnings grew steadily in the last 6 years. Revenue of continuous operations grew at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15%, from 229m in 2006 to 520m last year. Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) grew in tandem from 35.8m in 2006 to 88.9m last year. Net income grew even at a faster rate of CAGR of 20%. Though this is history, with the recent contracts secured, it is likely that this growth will continue for some time.
Value With such good performance of CBIP and the proof of shareholder enhancement for the past 5 years, one would expect CBIP to trade at a reasonably good market valuation. But is it?
At the present price of RM2.84, CBIP is selling at a PE ratio of 7.7. The enterprise value is just 5 times Ebit, way below my 8 times maximum. This is equivalent to an earnings yield of 20% (>>10%), Hence the price of RM2.84 is not expensive at all.
I have added more CBIP shares into my portfolio. This is the 6th stock in my portfolio.

Are you referring to the comment below?
Posted by Grandma > Aug 9, 2013 11:26 AM | Report Abuse The Net Profit is higher % than the Operating profit?
Is it regarding my post on CBIP? then my answer is yes. Any problem with it?
i wish i could find 2013 stock pick of, peter lim from sj securities. seaching the net for quite sometime but fail, can anyone post his picks or show where to get it..............
Trillion, when you know a little bit and not well enough, I advise you not to laugh at others first. Learn more first. ok?
You will be right if CBIP doesn't have associates and joint ventures. Because the profits from associates and JV are not consolidated into CBIP's financial statements. Hence earnings from associates and jv appear after ebit, or operating profit. that is why net income for CBIP is higher than operating profit. OK?
Well you said it, I will be right ! Even if I did laugh, in general I am not wrong !!! Net should not be higher than OP...what u are stating is only proportion back by the venture and to associates. If flat down accounting, you can never get a higher net! So don't think otherwise.
Your Net is still higher becoz your apportion has not been excluded yet.......you should exclude what is the proportion first for the JV. It's just like akin to saying you gain on forex and reported surplus but is it really revenue growth?? It is if every year you can do the same forex gain or extraordinary income.
CBIP's net profit is higher than its operating profit. That is "flat down" accounting. Operating profit is for the "ordinary" business of the company. It doesn't include profits of associates, jv, extra-ordinary items, foreign exchange gain, gain of investments if any etc. Net profit includes those stuff. Hence net profit can be higher than operating profit. It is actually shown in CBIP's income statement that net profit last year of 91.8m, is higher than its operating profit of 88.9m. And there is nothing wrong with that statement.
Are you an accountant? If so better refresh your knowledge. If not, better learn more about accounting.
Also your margin proportion of Revenue ( which include the JV before apportion) against the net income (where the apportion of the JV has been remove) is not correct. That's why u get the number higher lah......
In you claim this is flat down, I suggest you rebook at accounting structure again. JV partners will have their accounting numbers lower at EBIT. If you still insist, then I would say both sides recording the JV numbers, this will be double accounting.
Btw if you are an accountant, this has been restructured some time back and constant revision since Enron. In addition, the number would be large if your % shared is correct to be hidden anywhere as Financial Income that would have the after taxes to be high.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
