EPF, Salim & LTH own more than 84% of the outstanding shares. The other 15%plus are owned by foreign bankers, foreign & local funds & retailers. The liquidity of this counter is very low, indeed, if the big boys are not trading. It is very save to buy at this moment because the downside is extremely limited. It is also very boring for those who have bought because the upside is very limited as well.

Posted by kennynam > 2014-09-10 20:40 | Report Abuse

84%? Any factual data to support your statement?

Posted by calvintaneng > 2014-09-10 20:41 | Report Abuse

Today for the whole day I stayed at home watching www.onemotoring.sg
Hoping that traffic at Causeway will be clear enough to enter Johor.

It has been a one long unbreakable traffic jam.

So I got my calculator and do a little calculation.

Statistics have shown that there are 130,000 vehicles entering JB each day. Let's do a simple calculation.

130,000 x RM15.00 per car - both way) = RM1,950,000 CASH COLLECTED PER DAY (STRICTLY NO HUTANG)

Note: Many businesses closed after 5 pm. This Toll Business like 7 Eleven run 24 hour a day for the Whole Year.)

So RM1,950,000 x 365 = A WHOPPING RM711,750,000 PER YEAR PROFIT FOR MRCB!!

IS THAT ALL? NO!

MANY FACTORY & SCHOOL BUSES PAY HIGHER TOLL SENDING STUDENTS & WORKERS IN AND OUT SINGAPORE. THEN YOU HAVE GIANT LORRIES & LONG TRAILERS PAYING THE HIGHEST TOLL RATES!

All In All! EXPECT TOLL COLLECTION TO EXCEED RM1 BILLION PER YEAR.

THIS IS REALLY A CASH COW FOR MRCB!!

NO WONDER TABUNG HAJI IS BUYING NON STOP. EPF HAS ALREADY SCOOPED UP SUBSTANTIALLY!

Will MRCB Turn Into BLUE CHIP?

That Is A One Billion RM Question!!

@kennynam. You can check the change in shareholding under disclosure. The bursa announcements will tell you the number of shares these major shareholders own after each transaction. Divide the numbers by the latest number of share outstanding in quarter report will give you the most updated %shareholding of each major shareholder.

Calvin can you correct SS661M on the shareholding percentage?

Posted by calvintaneng > 2014-09-10 21:55 | Report Abuse

Kennynam

I think SS661M is more or less accurate. If you look at their "modus operandi" there are 2 Directions

1) All Are Holding Tightly Their Shares. And Tabung Haji is the One Who Kept Up Relentless Buying & Buying

2) EPF, Tabung Haji & BN Gang are Walloping All THE RESOURCES FROM MALAYSIA & POUR ALL INTO MRCB!

What Are They Up To?

Posted by kennynam > 2014-09-10 22:29 | Report Abuse

Hi SS661M/Calvin,Gapurna hold 16.37% and salim hold another 16.37%?

Posted by calvintaneng > 2014-09-10 23:00 | Report Abuse

Kennynam

Yes! You are correct. It overlap. Salim own 16.37% thru Gapurna.

And According To 2013 Annual Report EastSpring Investment Is Top No. 6 Shareholder. And the Rest of the Top 30 are mostly Foreign Funds.

Since EastSpring (Top Local Fund) Is Bullish in KLSE Mid Cap they might also load up on MRCB

Please share so that you can correct ppl & get yourselves corrected. @Go4Share. If liquidity is low there are 2outcomes:

1.) low volatility. The counter I'll become unpopular
2.) high volatility caused by insider's acts of goreng

It will only be temporary. You see, this will impact those with marginal income. To save cost they can always car pool. After all wages in Singapore is 300% MORE COMPARED TO JB.
ANOTHER THING IS THIS.
SINGAPORE IS A NATION WITH THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF MILLIONAIRES. WHERE CAN THEY THEY GO?

THEIR CARS DON'T HAVE MOTORS. SO THEY CANNOT SAIL TO BATAM. OF FLY BY PLANE TO BALI OR KL? SINCE THERE IS NO WHERE ELSE TO GO THEY STILL WILL VISIT JB.
ANOTHER THING IS. SINGAPOREANS STILL NEED TO EAT AND DRINK. CHEAPEST AND FASTEST STILL FROM MALAYSIA BY LORRIES. MORE TIME TO SHIP FROM CHINA OR INDONESIA.
SO JUST LIKE THE SUEZ CANAL FOR ALL SHIPS SO JB CAUSEWAY IS THE BRIDGE TO FREEDOM FOR ALL SINGAPOREANS.

sgd against RM b4 I back to Msia in 2004 was ding dong btw 1.70-1.80 for so long but after that it was surge to 2.50 then 2.60 now...so even at 1.70-1.80 the Causeway oledi jam everyday...so with current exchg rate u think the hike in toll will affect those travel to spore to work? I can tell u the flat rental in Spore even gone up more scary than the toll hike compared with yr 2004...I don see many will quit their Spore job and back to JB...As long as the attractive exchg rate still stay, these workers will find way to minimise the toll payment...Spore eers still need many Msian workers to work for them. U can just ask Spore govt would they give PR so easily to resident from other countries other than Msian?

Posted by einvest88 > 2014-09-14 11:50 | Report Abuse

This morning happen read from Nanyang, didnt know the public transport fare charges from JB to Spore cost RM5 per trip..which was more than double in yr 2004...The operator looking for increase fare charges to RM6 per trip...This is the cheapest rate by way of using public transport other alternative like taxi or private illegal transport surely will be more expensive. KTM is charging RM3 per trip but only 5 trips per day to Woodland. so u can just ignore it unless they up the frequency to 20-30 trips per day. The toll charges of RM6.80 per entry at CIQ not much different from taking bus, and do remember if u r thinking of taking public bus transport, u need extra time, parking fee or taking another shuttle bus to Larkin station...then will likely to cost u even more. So toll charges at CIQ really not a big issue...
The big issue I belif is the VEP charges...This is something discrimination and reason given rather unreasonable. JB has population of 2m and Spore 5m...would you think a lot of JB car going to flood at Spore street? What is so gd of going to flood at Spore street beside going there to work...maybe for casino gamble distance is shorter than going to Genting...Other than that nothing is cheaper and value for money compare to JB... VEP policy..a policy very similar to old days..a gangster policy...if u recall when an outsider wanted to do biz or dating a girl from another village, u have to pay a fee to the gangster in order to enter the village..otherwise they will punish u...why should punish a foreign car when they enter your country? You can charge higher fare for foreign car on toll or petrol or anything else if the govt has subsidy it for the local...but not this kind of gangster alike VEP policy.

einvest88, then what do you think about MRCB price after increase of toll rate on 1/10?

Posted by SS661M > 2014-09-14 13:52 | Report Abuse

Some simple financial ratios of MRCB:

(liquidity)
Current ratio = 1.14 < 2 FAIL

(longterm financial strength)
Debt/Equity = 1.70 < 2 PASS
Liability/Equity = 2.24 < 3 PASS
Asset/Eqyity = 3.24 > 2 PASS

Conclusion: MRCB has pretty strong balance sheet. The only problem is lack of liquidity. The toll collection is the best remedy for the problem. It is immediate hard cash.

(Management efficiency)
Net working capital = 81.5mil
Other operating asset = 2,057.9mil
Invested capital = 2,139.3mil
TTM EBIT* (1 - tax rate) = 81.6mil (excluding disposal gain of 94.9mil)
ROIC = 3.81%

Conclusion: The return on invested capital is extraordinarily low indicating inefficient utilisation of asset.

What MRCB need to do: Generate more liquid asset to improve liquidity. Employ brilliant financial architects to impliment more efficient operation.
