@ equity diary - that article seems to me like a glorification of Alan Koo. However, it does mention that Tower 1 is already fully sold, Tower 2 is already more than 90% sold. Ascot Tower 3 should be a sell out by the end of 2018. Concerning the 5 storeys retail tower, they have appointed a specialist retail consultant to manage. It seems they are very optimistic to pull in big international brands. Last I heard, Madamme Tussad has opened shop here.
why the unbilled sales is still the same at ~1 billion? how and when to realize it? and what is the difference between "take up rate" and "sales"? why different at 50% and 15%? need to wait so long to sign snp?
Thanks for,updating the latest progress in star residence, tower 1 almost reach 40%'completion, tower 2 around 35%.
Portfolio will keep all stake for another q to wanna to see the ACTUAL and bigger profit recognition from star residence. Current share price alrdy largely depress, and price in,
Remark. Since portfolio unlikely to buy star residence unit which cost more than 1 million, portfolio opt to invest in star residence project owner instead, symlife , hope, next q won disappoint again. Portfolio average holding cost now stand around 86+ sen .
I suspect, may be Star residence progress is faster than the speed of bank release progress billing, resulted delay in profit recognition. Perhaps Bank need more time to release payment to developer, assure stage of development and confirm and acknowledge by certified bank valuer? If not, how can with such high % completion in tower 1 (40%); tower 2 (35% ); and tower 3 ( 25%) and signature retail ( 56%) only can recognized such small profit?
For Union Suites, honestly I felt disappointed that they only managed to sell 15% of total GDV. However, we need to read carefully as mgmt opens 50% of the units for sale.
The annual report states that about 80% of Tower 2 was sold. But now, the quarterly report states 75% was sold. So, it is possible that 5% has dropped off.
Portfolio force to cut loss all symlife since still need to wait another q at least to seebig jump in profit from satr residence. Cut loss to free up capital, swap to iwcity to try to recoup back loss, will come back to symlife later
@ equity diary taiko....I am quite worried about Union Suites....can you helo to research about it ? Sales of 15% of total GDV is quite disappointing ...
Portfolio incur about -10% loss today on symlife. Its one of the worse stock perform in portfolio. Very disappointed with symlife.....
However, portfolio wish to target to return back before next Q result release next year to capitalize on star residence profit hopefully it indeed can deliver high expectation profit on star residence instead of just less than 10 million now.
Bear in mind, without star residence profit, symlife even incur loss in these q result.
Thus, star residence is the only bright spot in symlife as it already almost 100% sold (someone mention tower 3 also sold out). Star residence have such high GDV is RM 3 billion, 50% stake have GDV 1.5 billion, profit margin 20%, symlife theoretically should be able to deliver at least RM 100m per year at least
Nonetheless, portfolio already cut loss all symlife share, will no comment anymore here onward until portfolio buyback later. Thanks
Symlife management just know how to shout about their 1 bil unbilled sales only but till now I haven't seen any profit contribution fm it...really lousy company...talk only but lousy profit...
It is a good time to load more now...Symlife still have 975 mil of unbilled sales which will sustain earnings for the next 3 yrs to come...Symlife surely wont launch anymore high end products due to current tough property slump...Sungai Long is what we are waiting for as Symlife will move towards affordable development...even without any new launches next yr, its 975 mil unbilled sales is more than enough to maintain profitability...
2018 will be a good year for Symlife. Sungai Long Interchange of EKVE exact location which lies in Symlife land has been finalised. Symlife will start to launch its first project of this 400 acres development in the later part of this year.
1 bil unbilled sales for a small cap stock like Symlife is rare...not many small company could do tat...We still haven reach the qtr where it reflects a huge contribution fm the 1 bil unbilled sales...It could be next qtr...we just need to be prepared for sudden upside of Symlife...it is a hibernating lion... ready to roar anytime!!!
Sales are recognised progressively and this is especially true for highrise development. The two major developments, Star Residence and Twy are progressing well. Profit recognitions will increase for the coming quarters.
