• HONGSENG @ 5.00% p.a
Announcement from Kenanga. Hap Seng is in the short list openly
received the same announcement from Kenanga when logged in. i dont own Hap Seng... but when i saw that notification, i was like omg what happen to this darling stock? thought it's solid company. is what kenanga doing is legal?
1.Investors had downgraded Hap Seng and its share price had retreated and hugely diminished in the last two months. Yesterday, it announced its 1st Q result and the company suffered a 67.5% profit reduction compare to last year corresponding quarter and a 46% lower in comparison with the preceding quarter.
2. The company recorded decline in revenue and profit in all segments of business operation in particular the contribution from HS plantation was hugely diminished arising from falling price of Crude Palm Oil
3.Going forward the company sentiment will be rattled by the continued falling CPO price and loss of revenue from the disposal of Manchester Credit Leasing,raising cost of fertilizer and higher cost of operations.
4. The fall in share price is a direct reflection of its reduction in revenue and diminishing profit performance.
5.On 27th May it hit an intra-day low of 401 and a high of 427 to closed at 4.12 down 12 sen post result announcement. The counter is still struggling hard to find its bottom.
6. It is difficulty to estimate how low the price can go. Hap Seng is a counter designated for Restricted Short Sale with total short position exceeding 9.8m shares. The short sellers are still active and hence, there is no sign of its bottoming.
7. Considering that the 52 weeks share price has fallen from 830 to 401 or a loss of Rm10.6b in market capital, the downside in my opinion is limited.
8. In the days to come, HS will find its bottom and prices will consolidate and stabilize until the next quarter.
9. It is heart warming and comforting to note that HS has also declared a 10 sen dividend that would go EX on 8th of June and payable on 22nd of June 2023. This would in some way cushion the fall.
10. I think all the loyal investors had an excruciatingly painful experience and suffered enormous financial losses.
11. In anyway the company is still profitable. The business is sustainable. At 412 it is trading at 12x PE multiply in which many would believe it is a fair price.
Well, we can only hope that government will come out some policy to boost msia property and plantation CFO price can at least stay above 4k, hoping after 3Q things getting better :)
hhhiii123 u better hope china vs US trade war stop and ukraine vs russia war oso stop in next month ...world back to peace. malaysia is only a small country and no rich ..whenever big elephant fighting ,grass always die first .
Why so angry lol, i am suffering high pape loss. Maybe it take years to recover the price, just believe hp is suffering poor result due to economy cycle only, 2024/25 should experience strong growth
hapseng still trades at a premium to its net asset value. maybe that's why those short sellers so big balls to bet against it? i would never dare to short, but also agree that when it's downtrend ... it is always downTREND... No one will know the bottom.
Wah! RWG, lu banyak tamaklah. RM1.50 itu susah nak capailah if without crisis assist.
This quarter 50M profit partial also because of forex losses. Unless coming 3 quarters also at the range of 50M then RM2 & below is possible. Else susah sikit.
