Coastal would hinge on coming Q1 FY18 result. I was expecting Q4 FY17 to turn around given Q3 FY17 reported EPS of 5 Sen. After Q3, I was given guidance by my source that COASTAL has turnaround.
Unfortunately in Q4 17, there was impairment of RM26.1 mil resulting in lower EPS. If not for the impairment EPS would have been 6 Sen. Thus operating profit would hav maintaine 2 good Qtr without impairment exp.
Thus I am betting on the Q1 FY 17 to be good. A Homily Chart Staff just said Coastal is a Dark Horse Born.
I am betting on coming Qtr result to be good confirming the turnaround. I could be wrong but for good return I am betting on this.
Someone ask for my analysis, just give me ur No. for contact thru telegram
OH NO UNCLE KOON SAY AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE ! NOW I AM STUCK AT HIGH PRICE..
Why You Should Not Buy Coastal Contract? Koon Yew Yin Author: Koon Yew Yin | Publish date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017, 09:12 AM
The company manufactures Coastal vessels for sale and rental. A few years ago, when the petroleum price was above USD 100 a barrel, its business was booming because many oil companies and sub-contractors wanted to buy or rent more vessels. In a situation like this, many more people wanted to explore new oil fields hoping to make more money.
But currently when the oil price is less than USD 50 per barrel and its business is badly affected. In fact, many sub-contractors or service providers are forced to sell off their vessels.
You Must Know The Company’s Business:
To be a successful investor, you must not only look at the price chart and financial statements to buy or sell blindly. That is why pure chartists cannot make much money. It is very important to know the company’s business. Sometimes its current financial statements may not look so attractive, its business might have a fantastic future.
A very good example is JAKS whose current quarterly profit is not so good. But it will eventually have 40% of the profit every year for 25 years from selling electricity to the Vietnamese Government. Moreover, JAKS does not need to borrow money to finance the construction of the RM 7.76 billion 1,200 MW coal fired power plant.
Why I am Writing This Article?
My purpose of writing this piece is because someone wanted me to explain why she should not buy Coastal Contract.
Among all the criteria for choosing shares, profit growth prospect is the most important and it is the most powerful catalyst to move share price. Never buy any share if the company has no good profit growth prospect.
The above table shows that its profit and revenue are less than last year. The revenue is about 30% of previous year. That means the business is very bad and the future can be worse.
I also wish to point out the following:
1 You should not be tempted to buy when you see that the share price is selling less than 50% of its NTA.
2 You should not be tempted to buy because it is so cheap after it has been falling in the last 3 years, as shown on the above chart.
3 Always be careful when someone recommends you to buy any share. You must examine his track record and his intention.
4 I used to be a substantial shareholder a few years ago. I have visited its shipyard in Sandakan, Sabah and I know all about the company. The company always has a few readymade vessels for sale or rent. During oil boom, many owners of oil fields and sub-contractors would just pay without hesitation.
Wah people taking profits wor...ayoh yoh. Help ilovehits. But anyway stocks don't do up in straight line. Hang on arh, but branch gonna break loh. What's your advice ilovehits?
In today adverse market sentiment, Coastal still manged to stay up. Looking at this, I personally believe, market could have leakage of coming result which probably would be positive, otherwise closing price still green is unlikely or very strong operator still wanting it up
Yes agree with you ilovehits. Play long term. If short term fly up is a bonus. Thanks ilovehits. No blame on anyone. I take the risks when entering a stock. Good of you to share.
Why having AGM must jump don't make sense? More and more MCM awarded but Coastal not among winner. Yesterday was Senergy and earlier a day was Penergy.
Yupe I think it is because soon they may have agm soon 15/11/2017 10:29
Coastal result should be out on 20th or 21st Nov. Good luck to all of us in Coastal. If co can deliver a net profit of RM20 mil giving an EPS of 5 Sen for Q1, then we are hitting jacpot.
Seeing the price holding on 16 Nov in adverse market condition and up marginally on 17 Nov on T3/T4 after high vol and price up, is a good sign.
Aiyah, price sure go down again. These few months price will drift down again. No point keeping this stock for now..Not a very good qtr. Some one who recommended this stock possibly sold out already..All in the game..hmmm
