This quarter loss is because of their chipsets and system upgrade which required by BNM as mention on quarter report, so this quarter loss not because of business failure but expenses to upgrade system, so it not consider bad news... :-D up up up...mpay... :-D :-D :-D
(1) 'Hence, the Group has decided to make a provision for impairment on its older Chip and Sign technology related inventory and fixed asset totaling RM7.204 million. As a corporate strategy, the Group has started promoting our payment solutions and services to countries where the payment industry still adopts the Chip and Sign technology. The Group may write back some recoverable value once this inventory is successfully rolled out to these countries' ' This is unlikely to be repeated in the next quarter '.
Comments : Third quarter loss due to one time provision. Further write off unlikely to re-occur and more likely positive write back next year once the older technology is migrated over to neighbouring countries still using the chip & pin.
(2) 'The Group cash position and liquidity remains robust with a healthy cash equivalent balance exceeding RM 80 million and zero outstanding debt. The Group balance sheet remains strong with a net asset backing of RM0.15 per share, an increase of 2 sen compared to RM0.13 per share in the corresponding 3 quarters preceding period'
Comments : Confirmation of my earlier September 2 2015 analysis:-

1) RM 80 million cash in the bank. 2) Strong balance sheet. 3) Zero debt.
(3) 'As a corporate strategy to ramp up the Group earnings, it intends to enter into smart partnerships with various key industry players in the financial, retail, e-commerce and big data eco-system to enhance and expand the Group business revenue channels.'
Comments: In the pipeline already beginning with the huge retailer association called MRCA and then a company called Fusionex in big data. Expect more significant partnerships that will 'ramp up earnings'.
In a nutshell these are confirmation as in my November 23 2015 write up ie:

Good morning all. Yes the FY quarter is indeed late and if no announcement is made by tomorrow latest I suspect the results will not be favourable in the short term.
Given that the company is pushing hard for its emoney roll out ie high burn rate and the sequential difference in new contract bookings I will not be surprise if it registers a loss although cash in the bank should still be above RM 70 mil if not higher.
Further given that Mpay and all other players in the payment terminal industry are migrating over to the new chip and pin technology as required by Bank Negara in 2016 and beyond, this opens up the possibility of financial provisions required for old software technology and inventories already spent.
In a nut shell I do not expect a good financial quarter reporting. These provisions (if any) is part and parcel of prudent financial accounting management and it does not change the bright outlook of the company in 2016 and beyond. Good luck all and I stand ready to buy on any major weakness arising there from the news.
Given that on such perceived 'negative' results, the stock did not encounter any massive selling and instead ended up on the morning session on good volume only means 3 things :
(1) 'Negative' result was discounted and priced in; (2) No major shareholder selling; (3) Likelihood of institutional funds and or major shareholders buying given the price stability.
I won't be surprise Mpay moving back up to the 29-30 cents level in December on the back of more positive announcements subject to no major weaknesses on Bursa or overseas bourses.
yes...sstrader, i saw that maybank tap china card payment maybe got related to mpay, if that true, then mpay will further up up up...mpay... :-D :-D :-D
maybank sign directly w unionpay, why do i get the feeling its sidestepping mpay as middleman. maybe mpay doesnt have the capacity to meet maybank's scale
Haiyo where got sidestepped...where got not enuf capacity...read carefully...mpay licensed to operate in selected countries only n not inclusive of china...
Wakakaka saya untung lagi yahooo! Kan dah cakap masa 25 sen lepas result wakakaka.. Tapii madiba memang nombor 1! Terima kasih madiba.

for this kind of stock, volume play a role. Strong volume indicates momentum. Today 39m volume is a highest record even for past 6 months. Traders may buy as a bullish bias could be present above this level
