At present price of 1.32, forecast yearly dividend should around 7-7.5cents. So the dividend yield would come up to be 5.3-5.7%. At present low fixed deposit rate, investing in this sure with good prospect and profit Scicom, is a wise step if comparing with keeping your money in the bank.
@Harry, If this situation worsens as you stated.....many companies will also close shop, not only Scicom, assuming we go to WW3. If I remember correctly (Vivien can attest to this), most of Scicom's clients are MNC (Lenovo and others), Ministry of Education Malaysia (EMGS) as well as some Regional Telco players. As such chances of that happening is probably less than some other companies with the substantially less robust balance sheet (Scicom has net cash of RM30m+ with zero debt). Share price movement largely depends on greed and fear..it is what it is! So, unless you have a substantial stake to sell to get it to RM0.90 or whatever lower price you think it is worth, the market will determine the share price as it sees fit. My 2 cents.
I prepared for 1.0 today but it did not happen..now there are so many TPs provided by @Harry...0.9 and now the lowest 0.6 (still without justifications)....maybe should wait for another lower TP from Aaron_Tan?
@Harry, again this just goes to show how little you know about Scicom's business. Pre-covid, s significant part of their biz is from foreign student visa applications and related services (which is a higher margin biz than the traditional BPO biz). With border reopening and foreign students returning, they are poise to recapture that lost revenue over the last two years during MCO. From that read-through, I will think that they will stand to benefit from the reopening of the border (this is also on top of the fact that the earlier lawsuit issue has been resolved). Although I do not know how fast those can return, they should at least be incrementally better than the last two years. I am not here to defend share price but just calling it out on your inaccuracy...have a good day!
Last week some one says he TSH at 1.79 and say tomorrow will fly 30 cents today how ....and I just want tell u plantations already earn now must washhand lioa...
