if you are expecting goverment to fight illicit ciggarette, you are asking goverment officer from various department hammer their own toes. you guy know what i mean. so how to fight? i must be dreaming.

unless..one suggestion to BAT or cig industry management, to offer huge incentive/rewards for government officer/individual in million of cash for various category of illicit cig found or caught. if ilegal operator can kao tim the officer why not bat and ther rest combined do the sane in legitimate way???? very lucrative business, this incentive is nothing compare to winning market share.

Improved qtr but yoy －20＋. Based on current market scenario，still consider a better performance compare to last qtr.
I am cautiously optimistic that the next qtr will be even be much better as the rcmo is going to retire soon.
Further ＋1sen more dividend than last qtr 17 sen.

Although I am more optimistic for the future, we have to understand it's still Covid time so don't expect the tobacco and beer industry to rebound so fast. Need patience. Hope there won't be anymore lockdowns in the near future. Lockdown is the killer for consumer goods sector.

bad quarter result

but share price not down

but up instead ? unbelieveable

Posted by troy88 > 2020-07-24 09:55 | Report Abuse

Up 7% versus last quarter is bad result? Q2 was supposed to be the worst period of lockdown. I think BAT did alright considering the situation. Could have been worse.

actually the recent quarter report is not bad la

Posted by Johnng8882020 > 2020-07-24 09:58 | Report Abuse

Bat did a good job. This qrt should be the worst but sales remain. So buy Call for long term investors. High devidend low risk.

Posted by Johnng8882020 > 2020-07-24 10:06 | Report Abuse

7% to 9% return. Good for long term investors. Very solid for this counter. Just buy put a side.

Posted by PTL4Ever > 2020-07-24 10:07 | Report Abuse

Bat is back after a hiccup. Should be a good one to keep long term but it will come back stronger soon as positive news and action is taking place. Better collect when still cheap. Could go back to RM13-14 in the near future

10.7 even cheaper than 1 pack cigarette.
