Good report. Thanks. BTW, did you ask management if they are working on 1 or 2 shifts? By increasing no. of shifts, they can increase production without much additional capital investments.
And cephasyu, why do you expect only 40 sen EPS (equivalent to RM 72m net profit) this year?. Already, Q1 earnings were RM 21m, after incurring a RM 5m forex loss. Adjusting for forex loss, earnings would have been at least RM 25m. Annualised, would give RM100m or EPS of 55 sen!
eskaylien sorry for the late reply. The reason why I'm only expecting 40c EPS is because I am assuming a USD/MYR forex of 4.00.
For forex players, there are two forex effects. One is the forex impact on the BS and the other is on the P/L. I've explained it in my Classic Scenic article and you can read it there.
In any case, even though Q1 2016 ending forex was at 3.92, the average forex for the quarter was actually 4.20 which is quite high. I am assuming that for the rest of the year, the USD will hover at around RM4.00.
