just becos the father got flu now the son is under quarantine. lagenda limit down just becos the MD now with MACC for query and investigation on conversion of a bumi land.
at 28c now, the PER based on last qtr earnings annualised, is 11.6x which is reasonable..... but company is mired in controversy, epicon is owned by Dato Doh, and formerly known as KTB, which was originally owned by Nadzmi Salleh (Nadi) who sold KTB to Dato Doh, and in return bus operations of KTB was sole back to Nadzmi (Nadi) and amount of RM51m owing from KTB to Nadi absolved, and now Nadi via Agro Business is in trouble..... and how this is related to epicon.... God Knows :-(
in the current Qtr financials, while the increase in revenue and profit is impressive, the 56m odd revenue for the qtr also resulted in about 30m increase in trade receivable..... unless there is a clear reason fro this increase (which is not stated in the financials) it early sign of over-estimation of revenue which are not in cash but re-booked as receivables.... to be careful :-) cheers
Lagenda limit down mainly due to short selling option available for the counter. The news on their MD is not that big or new, old story. Those playing short for the counter is the main reason. Expect price will climb back once the hype gone.
i jump in both lagenda and epicon this morning and making money now. i will keep till monday as news of DOH MD release is tomorrow so both counter will have chance of recovery. just a matter of assisting investigation on a bumi lad deal dont have to be so harsh on legnda share price lah. lagenda is a good fundamental company.
Epicon’s largest shareholder is Doh Properties Sdn Bhd, holding an 11.26% stake, as per the group’s annual report.
Key stakeholders include Datuk Doh Jee Ming and Datuk Doh Tee Leong, each owning a 45% stake in Doh Properties. Additionally, Datuk Doh Neng Chiong and Datin Lee Hong King hold 5% stakes, according to Companies Commission Malaysia data. Tee Leong also directly owns a 1.72% stake in Epicon...
The Company has already secured > RM900 mil worth of contracts in hand. It's now a matter of execution and completion of the contracts in hand. If the CEO is hardworking and pushy enough to achieve higher profit within shorter time frame, the share price may be doubled within 6 to 9 months.
luckyman i fully agreed with you as it dont make any cow sense to me when other construction companies secure job of around 100-300 million their shares can jump 10-40 cents in 3 days. yet epicon who are victimised by their associated company lagenda has to suffer this way.
With weaker financials, Tanco's share price managed to recover fully within a month after it went limit down. So, hopefully Epicon's share price may also be able to recover fully within a month or two given its strong financials and sizable contracts in hand.
The share price has been stuck in the 32 to 34 sen range for 2 months already. Maybe it will be stuck here for another month before it moves either up or down again....
“In addition to organic growth, we are also exploring strategic opportunities through mergers and acquisitions. I am pleased to share that we are in the advanced stage of negotiation for a deal that I believe would enhance our market position and provide new avenue for growth. Further details of the deal will be immediately announced to Bursa Malaysia upon the terms being finalised.”, as revealed by its CEO in the latest press release in conjunction with its latest less encouraging Q2 result.
Just hope that the company can secure a mega job like sub-contract work building a data center or a JV property development project with gross development value in excess of RM1 billion.
