Keck Seng could be the top gainer today.

Posted by prudentinvestor > 2024-05-16 17:11 | Report Abuse

Crescendo Corp and Tropicana Corp have sold some parcels of land in Johor Bahru, not Keck Seng. Otherwise Keck Seng's share price will shoot through the roof.

Still able to hold on to its more than 9% gain over the past two days. Chance to move up further.

Keck Seng spiked to almost RM8 ten and a half years ago. Property prices have appreciated by more than 50% over the past 10 years. At RM6.35, it is still 20% lower than its previous peak when it should have been 50% higher.

Why do u say KSeng is A1 stock?

How many acres of land does KSeng own in iskandar zone?
Where is it located?
What is the land cost?

Share asset value?
Hotel asset value?
Property investment value?
Property development value?

What is ,Ur prediction for the next financial years earning?

Keck Seng should be doing well this year, may be even better than last year's record earnings. Houses are selling like hot cakes in JB these days.

Wow! Such a favourable write up by someone who really knows Keck Seng well. Should give its share price a big boost tomorrow morning. Grab everything at below RM6.50 first thing in the morning.

The management only needs to use up less than 5% of Keck Seng's net cash to support its share price at RM10.

Posted by prudentinvestor > 2024-06-05 12:38 | Report Abuse

With its shares thinly traded, we often find its share price quite artificial.

Won't complain about its performance this morning but it is still very far from the level I am expecting.

The last time Keck Seng declared a bonus issue was in 2011. It has enough reserves to declare a bonus of 3 for 1. High time to give a bonus of at least 1 for 1 while maintaining the dividend rate.

KSeng has large track of oil palm plantation in Ulu Tiram etc. Any Data Centre operators planning to nego to be built in of its landbanks?

Posted by prudentinvestor > 2024-06-28 10:48 | Report Abuse

All Johor Bahru based developers should be doing extremely well for the next few years. Just have a look at Crescendo Corporation Bhd's first quarterly earnings.

Posted by compoundingeffect > 2024-06-28 13:49 | Report Abuse

agree that most johor based companies will do well next few years. Cresndo got EPS 1.03 and yet it's up only 3sen. Question is, any news that Kseng sell landbank to data center? I know that Pasir Gudang is a heavy industrial zone and maybe suitable for DC. But no news, right? If Kseng sell the industrial land in Pasir Gudang, maybe we will see EPS 1.00 extra? We can only hope!

Such a favorable comment on Keck Seng by Hong Leong Investment Bank's retail research head also fails to give its share price a big boost. Sigh!

KSeng has no industrial land in Pasir Gudang. However, it has a 208-hectare Tg Puteri Golf resort there. It has on the other hand, 2,382 hectares of oil palm plantation in Ulu Tiram which is within 30km radius from JB City.

With the pouring in of foreign capital and the completion of the RTS by end of 2026, it won't take very long for Keck Seng's share price to fully reflect its intrinsic value. Just bear for another few years.

Keck Seng made 13 sen a share in the first quarter, TSH only made 1.5 sen a share. Don't bring a third rate company here Cannon Tan.

Could be more than RM20 if it revalues all its assets. Much of its properties have not been revalued for 40 years.

Not difficult to give a rough estimate of how much Keck Seng is worth. It has over 600 acres of housing land in Pulai area and another 8,000 acres of plantation and housing land in Pasir Gudang area. Assuming its land in Pulai area is worth RM2 million per acre and its Pasir Gudang land a cheap RM400,000 per acre, these two are already worth a hefty RM4.5 billion. It has net cash of RM1.1 billion and share investments worth RM450 million. Its other properties include Menara Keck Seng and Regency Tower in KL, hotels in New York, Toronto and Hawaii and minor ones in Singapore and Johor Bahru are worth at least another RM1.5 billion. So how much is Keck Seng worth?

Posted by compoundingeffect > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

$$Prudentinvestor, FYI, There were four plots of industrial land sold in TPR Tech Park at prices averaging RM70 per square foot. This is around RM3m per acres. Your valuation is a bit conservative? I think no one here question about how undervalue about Kseng landbank. The most important part is how the sell of landbanks or developments to unlock value?

Foolishinvestor

Kseng priced in all its value already

That is why you don't see Crescendo Director Gooi Seong Gum in Top 30 of Kseng

Even though Crescendo's Taman Desa Cemerlang is so near to Taman Daya of Kseng office Mr. Gooi did not invest in Kseng

Instead Gooi Seong Gum bought 3 million Rsawit shares to be in 30 Top holders

"Better sell overvalued Kseng and buy Rsawit now full of value"
Cannon Tan@Tan Tua Pao, Keck Seng's latest audited NTA is around RM7 a share. I did a rough calculation yesterday and arrived at the conclusion that its actual NTA should be over RM20 a share. Its EPS last financial year was 67 sen and it earned almost 50% more in the first quarter this year than the same quarter last year. Keck Seng is grossly undervalued.

Posted by prudentinvestor > 2 months ago | Report Abuse

RSawit has been losing money for the past 10 years. It has never paid any dividend for over 10 years and its NTA has been dropping yearly for many years, to only 17 sen. Soon its NTA could become negative. Only a fool will say that it is full of value.

"In mid-November 2022, Temasek said it would write off its US$275 million investment in FTX “irrespective of the outcome of FTX's bankruptcy protection filing”. The state investor had held a 1.5 per cent stake in FTX and the investment constituted 0.09 per cent of its $403 billion portfolio as at end-March 2022.17 May 2024"
Read the above article Cannon Tan, the fact that someone bought 3 million RSawit shares and became one of its top 30 shareholders doesn't make RSawit a good company. Only a fool will think this way.

@Calvintan
Just in case u dun know how undervalue KSeng is

Rich assets

Kseng’s assets: (i) Net cash of RM1.106 billion (RM3.08 per share), (ii) Securities of RM414.94 million (RM1.15 per share), (iii) Rental properties valued at RM950.40 million (RM2.65 per share). The three assets are valued at RM6.88 per share (14% higher than the previous share price of RM6.01 on June 26). Other assets include 9,436 acres of land bank in Iskandar (refer to 2012 and 2023 reports).

2. Cash is king

Of the net cash of KSeng, 384 million is in SGD and 329 million is in USD. These two strong currencies and the Malaysian ringgit deposits earned 32 million ringgit in interest and 25 million in foreign exchange income. Therefore, Keck Seng has a solid fundamentals with huge deposits and strong cash flow.

3. Land is the king of kings

When inflation is high and money is depreciating, land can maintain its value and generate gold. KSeng owns about 9,400 acres of land in Iskandar Special Economic Zone, with huge potential for industrial development. It can be said to be the Iskandar land king among Malaysian property stocks


Think of RTS
Think of JB new Shenzhen
Think of SPZone agreement in September

Properties n industrial land selling very well in JB

KSeng can be 7/8/10/20/30 dollars in ten years time
On the conservative side

May even touch 7/8/9/10 by year end
Nobody knows

We wait for the coming quarterly reports n watchs it's EPS
