The metering segment is good but lack recurring income as the water meter are quite durable and normally replacement cycle is very long, probably every 2-2 decades.
Thus, most biz are 1-time and really have to grow new markets.

If not securing new construction contract, and depend on metering segment as main stream of income, the glory achieved last year during era of Bossku is gone with the wind. Metering biz is not sexy at all and cannot deliver significant growth and so its share price.

Key words:
“Proceeds from the offering will be used by the Government for its general purposes, financing development expenditures that among others include building schools, hospitals, public roads and utilities,” it said.

lilu, finally a kindred spirit! It is a lonely world(intellectually), finding discrepancies between value and price. Most people here are just price hawk, they are not bothered with the company performance.

Have you tried to compute the incremental return on capital of this company over say 8 years? Of the few hundreds companies I surveyed, this company can be ranked as the select few in the high double digit group.

"Samurai Bond - building schools, hospitals, public roads and utilities."
The pertinent question is if Gkent will secure relevant contracts from non-Bossku government?

If yes, GKent will definitely fly again to close the so called gap on value - price.

If no, then there is no gap between value - price as the market has calculated that once the existing contracts from Bossku complete, company income will heavily dependent on metering segment which is not attractive and cannot justify for high value as last year.

I am waiting for long for the first non Bossku construction contract to Gkent. I have high hope that Gkent should able to achieve that judging from the water meter contract from Pakatan states S'gor and Penang. I also have confident that GKent has real competitive capability in construction engineering and the past eng. contracts were not secured merely thru Bossku factor but largely thru its own competitiveness.

However there is one negative statement from the Boss of GKent in the last qtr note that the company will focus and expand metering segment. The hidden message is that the lucrative engineering/construction segment will be slowed down.

I am holding for long term. Hoping for more hospital and ECRL projects. Current quarter result may not be good but second half should be very good. If next year can get ECRL projects share price can go up very very high. I expect got dividend in April.

If you wait until announcement or contract sign, then too late to buy. You can't get at this price.

SHQuah there always will have naysayers. Let's not sound the bell for it will make our returns less because we will have to buy at a higher price.

Naysayers let us think from the aspect that we might not think before

it let our brain keep fresh and conscience and not to be over deluded with own bias opinion

i also learn and read a lot from comment in forum (but of course only good comment , not rubbish one)
