I am able to read the 2 analyst reports below, the annual report and also the latest QR report.

Here is the summary:
We remain optimistic on Guan Chong’s medium-to-longer term outlook with its future growth underpinned by:
i) EBITDA yield improvement as freight rates gradually ease;
ii) recovery in cocoa butter ASP to be bolstered by demand revival for upmarket chocolates; and
iii) overseas expansion plan.

Chocolate is one of the most popular sweet treats on the planet. Global annual sales are nearing $150 billion. As consumers in developing countries acquire more wealth, chocolate consumption is rising along with it. Some estimates point to sales of cocoa products reaching $200 billion per year by the end of the 2020s — representing an average annual growth of about 5%.

As part of the consumer staple sector of the stock market, chocolate isn't the highest growth investment theme out there. However, demand for chocolate and other sweets isn't going away anytime soon. In fact, chocolate sales are still rising as consumers in developing markets join the middle class, and previously out-of-reach products such as chocolate become a more regular part of the grocery shopping list.

Guan Chong stays cautious amid rising inflation, costs
CORPORATE NEWS
Tuesday, 16 Aug 2022

1:22 PM MYT

KUALA LUMPUR: Chocolate as an affordable luxury consumer product is generally considered recession-proof, but the rising inflation and interest rates in the global economy could soften demand for the confectionery, says Guan Chong Bhd.

The cocoa manufacturer said it is staying cautious given the high energy costs in the world's economy while the latest signs of recession could have a bearish effect on chocolate demand.

"We are adopting a cautious outlook on the future prospect and are more cautious on our investment and future plan.

"The group will place focus on expanding the market of high margin industrial chocolate and the optimisation of production according to the market conditions," it said on its future plans.

Guan Chong's guidance comes following a robust result in its second quarter report, which saw revenue jump over a third to RM1.2bil.

The group's net profit was consequently higher at RM44.61mil, 22.59% improved over RM36.39mil in the same quarter last year.

Earnings per share rose to 4.22 sen as compared with 3.51 sen in the comparative quarter.

Creative ways to save and still have fun
According to the group's filing with Bursa Malaysia, the 36.67% increase in turnover was mainly owing to an increase in the sales volume of cocoa butter as the previously delayed shipments were shipped out during the quarter.

It added that improved selling price for cocoa solids also contributed to the higher revenue.

In light of the performance, the board of directors declared a second interim dividend of two sen per share, going ex on Sept 14, 2022, and payable on Oct 10, 2022.

Dear HowAh.

That's very subjective question. Every investors here may have difference thought/action.

My personal view it is a buy call if you have excessive cash. But be ready for the next 2-3 years market turbulent.

Sell if you may need to use $$ that you have invested in the near future before it is too late
