I would categorise KSL as a value and post covid revival stock.
Pre covid, the company has always been able to deliver a profit of RM200mil to its share holders (From 2014 to 2019 and this even after excluding all the one off gains like fair value adjustments etc). If they can return back to precovid level (which i believe is highly likely), then at the current share price, it would mean that the company is only trading at a mere 3.2x PE.
An immediate catalyst would be the opening of Malaysia and Singapore borders as tourist from Singapore are actually the biggest spender for its hotel and mall business. The 2 business combined normally deliver a profit of 20 to 25 mil per quarter during precovid time. Now it is only delivering an operational profit of RM2 mil per quarter.
KSL board of director purposely created 1 company (Using other name) to supply brick for their own project, you may check their account for the brick supplier, curious why the price of the brick is higher than the market price and always the brick is exceeded the budget quantity.
Dont buy.. it is just sudden singapore border news that trigger some buy. This counter is useless. Trust me. Once u r caught there. It will be for years to get your money back. There is no dividend from this company for the past 7 years. Not worth the buy.
