ECOFIRST - The Next Symlife Author: StockAlliance | Publish date: Thu, 8 Jun 2017, 07:10 PM My Comments :-SOUND BUSINESS GROWTH AND GREAT POTENTIAL
On-going high end project in Ipoh with GDV RM302M(sold out and completed last month which mean 20 to 30% of its unbilled sales will have been captured in its coming 4Q results ending 31/5/2017). Another on- going project 87 acres of Freehold lands in Prime Location in Ampang Ukay KL ( in the vicinity of KLCC Petronas Twin Towers commercial/shopping/entertainment Tourist Belt) will generate RM5 Billions GDV over the next 10 years. 1st Phase with 3 Towers (GDV RM606M) had achieved sales of 90% since launched in March 2017. POSITIVE INDICATIONS FOR THE COMING 4Q RESULTS/PROFITS (to be announced next month) 1. The revenue recognised from completion of Upper East (GDV of RM302mil) will be recognised in next quarter. Imagine.... Minimum of 10-20% of progress revenue recognised could easily reach RM30-60mil. 2. The revenue recognised from good take up rate from three towers @ Ampang Ukay (GDV of RM606mil) and completion of earthwork and piling works will be in next quarter. Again... Minimum of 10-20% of progress revenue recognised could easily reach RM60-120mil. PLUS :- Sale of 1Segamat Mall for RM104M cash (net capital gain RM2.4M) Its South City Plaza, Sri Kembangan, is generating higher recurring rental incomes increasing to RM16M pa (from RM12M)
More prospects: EcoFirst Consolidated Bhd (EcoFirst), which is partnering IGB Corp Bhd (IGB) to develop a high-end condominium project in Jalan Batai, Damansara Heights GDV of RM400mil, hopes to launch the four-acre project in the third quarter of this year (3Q2017).
Technical Analysis: ECOFIRST has broken long resistance @ 0.305 and striving to unchartered area with big volume. RSI has crossed 50 indicates bull signal. ECOFIRST will strive to next TP at 0.35.
FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS We concluded from above findings, ECOFIRST is no different with SYMLIFE. You can try to google where is Ampang Ukay and distance between it with KLCC. It is in the centre of Klang Valley. We are very certain the value will soon resurface VERY SOON especially next quarter result out.. Mark our words. With big project valued at RM5bil, upcomin collaboration with IGB of RM400mil and consistent result performance, with market capitalisation of only RM240mil. This is 90% discounted. Think about it. ECOFIRST would at least valued at RM0.70 - 0.80.
(above extracts and comments are purely for exchange and sharing of market info)
I personally go the site to survey, indeed is 90% take up rate, very strategic location. Access to the major highways. Darren liew, I agreed this counter will go much higher in near future.
BASED ON THE FACTS : . COMPLETION OF ITS HIGH END UPPER EAST PROJECT IN IPOH (GDV 302M) . >90% SALES OF ITS 1ST PHASE AMPANG-UKAY PROJECT (GDV 606M) (The Next MidValley) JUST A RECOGNITION OF 15% OF ABOVE GDVs WILL REGISTER RM136M REVENUE FOR 4Q MAKING A TOTAL REVENUE OF 198M FOR 12 MONTHS FYE 31/5/17. 4Q PROFITS CAN BE 17M (JUST A NET MARGIN OF 12.5%) MAKING A TOTAL FULL YEAR PROFITS OF 24.8M (EPS 3.08 SEN.) BASED ON BURSA PROPERTY SECTOR P.E. OF 15.5x, ECOFIR's Fair Value/Price Target 0.47
(EXCLUDING OTHER POSITIVE FACTORS LIKE SALE OF 1SEGAMAT MALL FOR RM104M CASH. IF COMPLETED BY 31/5/17. ITS 4Q /FULL YEAR PROFITS WILL INCREASE BY CAPITAL GAIN OF 2.4M. ANOTHER POSITIVE IS THE UPWARD REVISION OF TENANCY RATE FOR ITS SOUTH CITY PLAZA KL INCREASING ITS RECURRING RENTAL INCOME BY 4M TO 16M . RM5B GDV FOR ITS AMPANG UKAY 87 ACRES FREEHOLD PROJECT SUSTAINING ITS EARNINGS FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS
REASONABLY GOOD ENTRY POINT WITH SHARE PRICE STILL AT A LOW LEVEL AND WITH UPCOMING POSITIVE NEWS FLOW SOON WITH THE SOON TO BE ANNOUNCED 4Q RESULTS WITH INDICATIONS OF SIGNIFICANT INCREASING PROFITS N PROSPECTS
Ecofirs : The Next Symlife (which share price is now already at 1.00)
The Next MidValley.
Both can become realities based on the expected much improved 4Q results to be released by this month end. And this will start off an uptrend in profits and share price sustained by its prized Ampang-Ukay 87 acres project (Freehold 87 acres fronting MMR2 and well connected by an excellent network of highways and public transport facilities. In the centre of the Klang Valley and within the Greater Golden Triangle with near/easy access to The ICONIC PETRONAS TWIN TOWERS- Bukit Bintang Tourist Commercial Belt (That's the reason for it securing >90% sales for its 1Phase (launched in March2017) 1st Phase GDV RM606M. Aggregate GDV RM5B with increasing Earnings Visibility sustainable over 10 years.
It is disheartening to see directors disposing like nobody's business. Looks like they are traders in this stock. Since so much talk about this stock bring very good,!? So why are the directors selling more,than they buy. I find it strange. Can anyone enlighten?
THESE WERE DIRECT DEALINGS WHICH ONLY REPRESENT A SMALL FRACTION OF THEIR SHAREHOLDINGS. SUCH DEALS CAN BE FOR PRIVATE REASONS . THEIR REMAINING SHAREHOLDINGS ARE STILL VERY SUBSTANTIAL. THUS REFLECTING THEIR CONTINUED CONFIDENCE IN ECOFIRS
EXAMPLE: TEOH SENG AUN WHO SOLD VIA DIRECT DEALS STILL HOLD 73.7M SHARES IN ECOFIRS. PRIVATE REASONS CAN INCLUDE ALLOCATIONS FOR RELATIVES, ETC OR FOR STRATEGIC BUSINESS REASONS. ITS SIGNIFICANT THAT THESE MAJOR SHAREHOLDERS STILL HOLDS SUBSTANTIAL INTEREST IN THE COMPANY
WE CAN FOCUS ON THE UPCOMING 4Q RESULTS TO BE ANNOUNCED IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. BASED ON THE GOOD SALES/GDV OF THEIR 2 ONGOING PROJECTS, ITS REVENUES AND PROFITS WILL BE GOOD
GOOD EARNINGS VISIBILITY IS VERY IMPORTANT TO SUPPORT ANY SHARE PRICE UPTREND. WE GOT THIS FROM ECOFIRS (10 YEAR GDV CUM EARNINGS VISIBILITY FROM ITS 87 ACRES AMPANG-UKAY PROJECT (EST. GDV RM5B AND WITH ITS 1ST PHASE WORTH RM606M ALREADY SOLD >90% AND PROGRESS WORK ALREADY COMPLETED FOR ITS PILING/FOUNDATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS). TO BE FURTHER SUPPORTED BY ITS RM400M J/V PROJECT WITH IGB AT BUKIT DAMANSARA TO BE S SOUTH CITY PLAZA KL MALL (MANY LONG TERM TENANTS FROM PRIVATE COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES)
TECHNICAL POSTING ERROR. SHOULD BE " to be further supported by the recurring rental incomes from its South City Plaza (revised upward by rm4m to rm16m annually. Many long term tenants are from private colleges/universities)
1)Trump pledges to act 'very strongly' on North Korea missile threat The U.S. will move on its own if Russia, China don't support it, Trump says
Could include Naval Blockage and Search/Seize N. Korean cargo ships for weapons shipments (allowed by U.N. bcos N.K broke UN resolutions)
2) Trump reportedly 'hell-bent' on imposing steel tariff despite objections from most advisors US considering broad-scale measures to fight steel dumping: Wilbur Ross • The United States might have no choice but to resort to "broad-scale" measures to fight the problem of steel dumping, said Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross.
Art Cashin warns of a 'major shudder' in the market if Trump imposes steel tariff • Axios reports that the Trump administration is "hell-bent" on imposing tariffs on imports including steel. • "I think people would worry about trade wars and where we are going from there," Art Cashin says. (WILL BE BAD IF TRADE WARS STARTS WITH 20% IMPORT TAX TARIFFS AGAINST CHINESE AND EU STEEL)
Type Announcement Subject TRANSACTIONS (CHAPTER 10 OF LISTING REQUIREMENTS) NON RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Description ECOFIRST CONSOLIDATED BHD ("ECB" OR "THE COMPANY")
PROPOSED DISPOSAL OF THE 1SEGAMAT PROPERTY AND CAR PARK RIGHTS ("SUBJECT PROPERTY") BY TASHIMA DEVELOPMENT SDN BHD, A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF ECOFIRST CONSOLIDATED BHD TO MTRUSTEE BERHAD (FORMERLY KNOWN AS AMTRUSTEE BERHAD), THE TRUSTEE OF HEKTAR REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST FOR A CASH CONSIDERATION OF RM104.0 MILLION ("PROPOSED DISPOSAL") (Reference is made to ECB’s announcements dated 10 June 2016 and 9 January 2017 in relation to the Proposed Disposal (“Announcements”). Unless otherwise stated, all abbreviations used herein shall have the same meanings as those used in the Announcements.)
On 9 January 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company announced that the Conditional Period had been extended from 10 January 2017 up to 9 July 2017 (“First Extended Conditional Period”).
The Board of Directors of the Company wishes to announce that as at the date of this announcement (being the business day of the First Extended Conditional Period), TDSB has yet to fulfil certain of the conditions precedent of the SPA.
In this regard, TDSB and Hektar Asset Management Sdn Bhd, the Manager of Hektar-REIT, had by way of an exchange of letters dated 7 July 2017, mutually agreed to extend the First Extended Conditional Period for a period of up to 1 month i.e. up to 9 August 2017.
Wonder what's going on....substantial shareholders and directors continue selling at 29c to 30c, when every one is saying how good this company is? Can some one make comments on continued selling by directors and substantial shareholders. If things are,that good, why they want to sell now.
Regret that the source of the info on its sale of 1Segamat Mall was inaccurate as in fact “ TDSB has yet to fulfil certain of the conditions precedent of the SPA. “ This actually means the buyer can legally back out and cancel the SPA by deciding not to fulfil the conditions precedents as mentioned. If this happens then it will be a significant set back for Ecofirs bcos the sale( if completed )can help to reduce its high gearing/borrowings of RM231M (as at 28/2/17) . The sale can also be an additional source of funding for its AmpangUkay project
4Q RESULTS AND PROFITS TO BE RELEASED BEFORE MONTH END WILL BE VERY GOOD BASED ON THE COMPLETION OF ITS HIGH END IPOH PROJECT, THE GOOD SALES ACHIEVED FOR ITS 1ST PHASE AMPANG-UKAY PROJECT PLUS THE UPWARD REVISION OF LEASE RENTAL RATES FOR ITS SOUTH CITY MALL AT SRI KEBANGAN KL
