Mahsing 60m profit sits on RM3Billion market cap…

this counter is only RM1.9B at 100m profits. Given it’s landbank, completed hotels and malls, and inventories should easily put it at RM3-4B market cap for price of RM3/4.

Very safe and syndicates knows no matter price they goreng up or down, they will eventually win.

@RJ87, correct, KSL is the property company that made the most profit in 2023 with net profit of RM416 million, followed by SimeProp RM408 million and SP Setia RM298 million.

But KSL market cap is only a fraction of the other property companies like Mah Sing and SP Setia.

KSL has many projects in Pulai....

KUALA LUMPUR (May 13): AME Elite Consortium Bhd (KL:AME) is selling 11 plots of freehold land measuring over 34.91 acres in Pulai, Johor Bahru, for RM209.84 million cash to Hong Kong-based data centre operator Digital Hyperspace Malaysia Sdn Bhd (DHM).

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia on Monday, the property developer said the plots of land are located in i-TechValley — a 170-acre industrial park at the Southern Industrial and Logistics Cluster (SILC).

DHM is a wholly owned subsidiary of Quantum DC (HK) Ltd, which primarily provides infrastructure for hosting and data processing services, AME Elite said.

AME Elite is selling the 11 plots of land through its wholly owned subsidiaries Pentagon Land Sdn Bhd and Greenhill SILC Sdn Bhd. This sale is subject to approvals from the Johor State Government Office and other relevant authorities if the relevant land registry requires a no-objection letter from the Economic Planning Unit.

The transaction valued the land at RM138 per sq ft on a “willing-buyer willing-seller” basis.


According to CBRE WTW Valuation & Advisory Sdn Bhd, the plots of land were sold at a slight premium to the market based on previous transactions in Pulai. It said the last transacted price in Pulai was between RM120 and RM138 per sq ft.

Over the last one month, there has been a sharp increase in land demand in Pulai, especially from data centre operators. The latest one was Axis Real Estate Investment Trust (Axis REIT), which disposed of 26.96 acres of industrial land in Axis Steel Centre @ SILC, Johor for RM162 million to a data centre operator. It did not disclose the identity of the purchaser. The transaction valued the land at RM138 per sq ft.

AME Elite estimated the company would lock in gross proceeds of RM155.04 million from the land sale. The proceeds have been earmarked to fund development costs relating to i-TechValley, including land, infrastructure and construction, as well as future industrial property development and investment projects, including land acquisitions and joint ventures.

i-TechValley is AME Elite's latest ongoing industrial park development project with an estimated gross development value of RM1.5 billion spanning over five years.

Launched in October 2022, i-TechValley has achieved a take-up rate of approximately 30%.

Meanwhile, the remaining RM54.8 million will be used for working capital and related expenses for the proposed disposal.

The proposed sale is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2025.

Trading of the securities in AME Elite has been suspended from 9am to 5pm on Monday and will resume on Tuesday. The counter was last traded at RM1.78, giving it a market value of RM1.14 billion. Its share price hit an all-time high of RM1.88 on Feb 9 this year.

AME Elite’s net profit for the third quarter ended Dec 31, 2023 (3QFY2024) surged 136% to RM21.92 million, from RM9.28 million a year earlier, mainly due to a fair value gain of RM13.12 million on investment properties, arising from the sale of industrial properties to AME Real Estate Investment Trust.

Revenue for 3QFY2024 grew 31.16% year-on-year to RM176.21 million from RM134.35 million.

For the nine months ended Dec 31, AME Elite’s net profit rose 9.55% to RM67.02 million from RM61.17 million on the back of a 51% surge in revenue to RM632.06 million from RM418.71 million.

KUALA LUMPUR (May 15): The Malaysian property market was active in the first quarter of 2024 (1Q2024), recording a 34.3% growth compared to the first quarter a year ago, with more than 104,297 transactions worth RM56.53 billion, a 34.3% jump in transaction value.

Valuation and Property Services Department Director-General Abdul Razak Yusak said in terms of volume, property sub-sectors recorded positive growth in 1Q2024; the commercial sub-sector grew by 33.4%, residential by 16.6%, industry by 14.3%, agriculture by 13.7%, and development land and others by 10.7%.

“The residential sub-sector continues to dominate market activities with over 62,000 transactions, valued at over RM25 billion, comprising nearly 60% of overall property market activities.


“Housing priced at RM300,000 and below dominate the market with 33,500 transactions, comprising more than 50% of total transactions,” he said when presenting the 1Q2024 Real Estate Market Report in a live broadcast on Facebook on Wednesday.

According to Abdul Razak, construction activities also showed positive growth in 1Q2024 when commencements rose to more than 21,300 units, an increase of almost 8% from the previous year, while planned new developments decreased to around 11,000 units.

“All states recorded moderate growth of between 0.5% and 4.6%, except for Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Perak, Melaka and Sarawak, where prices contracted by between 0.2% and 2%.

“Terraced housing remained stable with a positive 1.8% growth, while other types of housing recorded a marginal decrease,” he said.

Completed unsold housing, commonly known as a residential overhang, decreased to 24,208 units worth RM16.49 billion, compared with 25,816 units worth RM17.68 billion in 4Q2023.

Serviced apartment overhang rose by 5.2% to 21,913 units, with a 9.7% rise in ringgit value to RM18.16 billion.

The performance of private purpose-built offices recorded a marginal increase, he said.

“The occupancy rate of privately owned, purpose-built offices rose marginally to 72%, versus 71.9% in the previous quarter,” he said.

@Alex Kho, good write-up on KSL.

KSL is not only trading at PER of below 5x, but it has plenty of land in Johor which still carries at very low book value.

Looking at how land price in Kulai/Pulai being snapped up by data centre developers at prices as high as RM138 psf, I think KSL will see huge revaluation gains for its total 578 acres of land around Pulai.
