"BPO will never disappear, and it will continue to grow with AI. In the next five years, Malaysia will be very strategic, which it already is for the BPO industry.

As of now, many big giants in the BPO industry are already establishing themselves in Malaysia, while five years ago they didn’t consider being in Malaysia. For example, Teleperformance, Concentrix, 24-in touch, UBase, and the list goes on."
"The general view about BPO is that it's a call center or a contact center, but BPO is an industry, and call centers and contact centers are part of it, along with other verticals such as back office, knowledge outsourcing, solution outsourcing, etc."

Scicom suspended trading? What happen?

Posted by gankm > 2024-02-26 09:44 | Report Abuse

Challenge facing from Scicom:
The industry itself is bracing for change with the threat of substitute products and services such as the advent of technology driven innovation such as AI and RPA by customers enabling them to reduce their transactional volume and therefore their cost to serve their customers.

Agreed 1.08 price point places this counter as undervalued. Low participation by inst funds; KWSP & Eastspring listed 2%+ ea with most concentration to insiders. Drivers for higher prices upward of RM1.80:
- more institutional take up
- harnessing Ai into their offerings

For now, one of few counters paying consistent dividend (high) every quarter. So entry at 1.08 is a good deal for long term accumulation & compounding.

AI is becoming a valuable tool for BPO companies. BPO companies can significantly reduce repetitive tasks using robotic process automation (RPA) and AI. By improving productivity and efficiency. BPOs will become even more effective investments. Integrating AI and RPA is the most anticipated emerging trend in business process outsourcing industry.

any idea when is the nxt qr

Posted by LadyRepins > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

Next report due late May'24 for qtr ending Mar'24
One of few counters paying dividends every quarter, pretty decent yield ~7.4%(TTM). Price upper bound by 1.12~1.16 levels. Still pretty decent PER 13, not bid up by speculators. Stable, slow and steady.

@amilytay @c328
One needs to approach Ai cautiously. Yet to see any initiative from SCICOM, in fact they could enhance their ticker quality by putting out a professional Nasdaq-style quarterly slide deck.

missed the 1.05... 🙄

Posted by awp380 > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

LittleKnife. this counter not for goreng. is for div investing. 1.05 and now 1.09 is on few cents. which you can earn it back down the road.

Posted by SeekUndervalued > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

@awp380, is the dividend of 8 cents sustainable? I used to owned Scicom, and sold it off at 1.14. Now I have extra money, and plan to buy it back at this pricing but worry the profit is not sustainable. When profit drops, I worry the dividend yield will drop...

Posted by 4ever5 > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

I used to hold scicom in 2022 and 2023 until the CHATGPT released. it has shaken the long term investor to think, whether this Ai will affect Scicom business or its a boaster to Scicom business.
In this bull market 2024, all boring dividend stock has move up slightly, at least beat KLCI that up 10%.
This is not hater comment, i do like scicom as a dividend stock, but the future prospect is still unclear.

Posted by 4ever5 > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

And the reason why i bother to drop this comment is because i like scicom, if it drops under a price where i feel undervalue, i will collect maybe.

Posted by Pinky > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

I used to like SCICOM too. But look at their website and financial reports...their investor relations/communications is like... 😅😂😓🤦

Not sure how investors say scicom cash flow is healthy. Earn 7m payout 7m dividend is definitely not healthy at all. Note this down for future reference whenever u decide to go for "dividend"

Posted by ckwee168 > 3 weeks ago | Report Abuse

Thanks @gankm. Affin's TP of RM1.10 is not too far away from what i'm looking at too. SCICOM management has openly acknowledged in their recent QR that AI is indeed a threat to its BPO business, and has been working on a few in-house developed AI models leveraging on ChatGPT to gradually substitute its traditional human outsourcing business .. This is truly AI at work, and successful rollout of these AI based customer service chatbot to its existing client base wud be a significant game changer for SCICOM .. Re-collecting SCICOM again since my last exit at RM1.20 ..

Posted by sasword > 2 weeks ago | Report Abuse

will drop below 0.80
