@firehawk - As mentioned above, O&G division remain stalemate and incurred losses, until Petronas gives a nod on further expenditure.

O&G will not last low price indefinitely. 3 years has already passed.
As with any cycle, at some point of time, what comes down must go up.
Actually, the contribution of O&G is not so significant to WTK. Their main focus is timber division.

@hustle - And yes, I agree WTK is over-diversified. How I wish someone could advice the management in the AGM to restructure the company and cut down unprofitable business.

@steve - You should already knew this. It's in the annual report. I've even written about it.
How can you buy a stock without knowing about your stock?
It's like going to the hospital for an operation without checking the doctor's background.

Sarawak may need foreign investors to upgrade timber industry — Awang Tengah

KUALA LUMPUR: Sarawak Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan said the state may need to work with foreign investors to upgrade its timber industry.

“At the moment, most of the players in the timber industry are based in Sarawak. They are mostly involved in the upstream segment but are now going towards the downstream segment for plywood and other timber products.

“We would like to enhance the timber industry and our timber products. We may have to collaborate with other investors, especially from Japan, South Korea and China, which are the traditional buyers for the timber products,” he said yesterday at a press briefing on the 13th World Islamic Economic Forum (WIEF), which will be held in Kuching, Sarawak, from Nov 21 to 23.

He added that the state is also looking at expanding Sarawak’s furniture industry, which is still very small, despite the state’s abundant timber resources.

Awang Tengah said the state needs to start off with getting one renowned anchor company for the furniture industry to kick it off.

Besides developing the timber industry, Awang Tengah reiterated that the state is in the midst of a long-term transformation plan, which will also involve the manufacturing and tourism industries, as well as the setting up of a halal hub.

He added that the state government also plans to expand the oil and gas sector, with plans to turn Bintulu into a petrochemical hub.

Meanwhile, WIEF Foundation chairman Tun Musa Hitam said Sarawak was picked mainly for its drive to develop its digital economy, which was in line with the forum’s theme of “Disruptive Change: Impact and Challenges”.

“I’m very impressed with their emphasis on the digital economy because that’s the way to go. That’s the immediate future. We are now talking about artificial intelligence, driverless cars and all sorts of other things, and the focus has to be on the digital economy,” he said.

Awang Tengah added that Sarawak is going “full-gear” in preparing to embrace the digital economy, highlighting the fact that the state government had committed RM1 billion for ICT infrastructure upgrades.

“The mode of implementation [for the RM1 billion allocation] is still to be decided, but what is obvious is the commitment of the government to improve the ICT infrastructure,” he said.

“We are really looking forward to host the 13th WIEF in Sarawak. To me, this is a golden opportunity to promote Sarawak and what we can offer in relation to investment and business opportunities,” he added.

Another Side Kick News

LOG PRICES GOING UP IN EVERGREEN REPORT

See

Consolidated profit before tax
For the current year to date, the Group’s revenue has increased by 3.1% or
RM15.45 million to RM508.48 million, as compared to RM493.03 million for the
corresponding period last year. The increase in revenue was due to higher average
selling price as the Group emphasis more on high premium products.
Profit before tax was registered at RM27.49 million for the current year to date,
decreased by 40.2% or RM18.51 million compared to profit before tax of RM46.00
million recorded in the corresponding period last year. The decrease in profit was
mainly due to higher log and glue cost and scheduled plants shut down for
maintenance during the Ramadan festive period.

Good news

This time Ta Ann results & overview confirm uptrend of log prices & Cpo prices

Current Year Prospects
The Group’s log harvesting policy is in compliance with our certification exercise. The reduction of log
export quota from 30% to 20% effective 1
st July will channel more proportion of logs harvested to the
mills for processing. We have strategically revised our plywood production to process more products with
higher plantation and certified woods components as we are stepping up harvesting of our plantation logs
and utilization of imported PEFC certified eucalyptus veneer.
To-date, plywood products prices have gone up by USD25/m3
and with higher demand, we anticipate the
price uptrend to continue.
Oil palm sector which was the main source of revenue and profit in the first half year is expected to
generate higher revenue and profit for the Group since the oil palms are entering into the peak crop
season.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the directors are confident of a satisfactory performance for 2017

@calvintaneng

First of all, appreciate the insightful investment articles that you’ve written over the years. Keep up the great work!

Are you currently following EKSONS (9016)? FYI, this company has businesses in plywood manufacturing and property development. The company has mills located at East Malaysia (i.e. near sources of timber supply at Sibu & Tawau ‘http://www.eksons.com.my/t_factory.php’).

The current price is at RM0.91 (25 August 2017) vs NTA of RM2.89 (approx. 3 times). Also, noticed that Mr. Lim Pei Tiam (i.e. one of the 30 largest shareholders) has increased his shareholding from 1,006,200 shares / 0.61% (as of 30 June 2016) to 3,364,700 / 2.05% (as of 5 July 2017).

Appreciate your thoughts in the potential of this company, should you be interested. Thanks in advance.
