This company operates in two booming sectors: oil and palm oil. It seems to have pricing power and able to maintain EPS of at least RM0.12 a year, going forward. The company is in a position to increase dividend to RM0.08 a year. The fair value of this company lies around RM1.20. Attractive price to enter currently.

Despite the profit decline https://www.instagram.com/p/Cym9ugwyPj-/?img_index=1, Pantech made a strategic decision to maintain its dividend at RM 0.015 per share.

Posted by danchong > 2023-10-23 11:51 | Report Abuse

The EPS is up 5% QoQ. Down 9% YoY. Half Year down 4%.

I don't see anything alarming. The company is not in a growing phase and they are only at optimal size with healthy earnings.

The dividend payout is 3/6.7 = 45% which is very comfortable.

QR no good😥, still able to maintain dividend of 1.5sen😀.
Next QR should be better since Petronas has huge capex

*Results Update*
*Pantech Group Holdings Berhad (5125)*
*Target Price: RM1.18 (Buy)*
📌 9MFY24 core net profit came in within ours but below consensus’ expectations.

📌 The group declared a third interim dividend of 1.5 sen/share, bringing the YTD DPS to 4.5 sen.

📌 3QFY24 PBT dropped 41.8% YoY dragged by both softer demand from local O&G projects for the Trading Division as well as lower ASP and lower demand for the Manufacturing division.

📌 The group should register better performance in FY25 as the tenders for major projects such as PIPC are expected to commence in mid-2024.

📌 Reiterate Buy with an unchanged TP of RM1.18/share based on 10x CY24 EPS.

Company has 225m cash and bank balance... only 12m in FD. They even had 205m in short term borrowings probably for buying materials. Why do they even waste the 225m when they can use it to buy materials with cash without using short term borrowings? Or at least put them in FD. If you assume short term borrowings as LC/BA/TR, at around 6% annually, they would have save millions in borrowing cost.

225m might be for working capital in anticipation of
huge Petronas Capex.

it's important to keep some cash and available credits especially to bid for new projects. Customersndo evaluate.the company cash flow to ensure their financial ability to take up expensive projects.

Interest from loans can help to offset some taxes. it's a smart way to optimise tax.

All smart biz ppl do take up loans and now you know why.

Posted by Andre Kua > 2024-02-19 20:03 | Report Abuse

Since when loan interest can offset income tax?

ooikh889,

My bad, you reminded me of how the banks are operating. If you don't use a big portion of the facilities you secured, chances are they will be downsized in near future. I just thought that they could at least at least put some of these money to better use like short term FD which could be redeemed to payoff these operating capex borrowings if necessary.

Andre,
I don't have the answer, you can ask the management during AGM.
Or write to them and wait for their reply. I would like to know too.

Andre Kua,

Loan interest is expense to P&L, that will offset the income and hence the net taxable amount is lower. make sense?

From 2019 to 2023
Revenues grew >50% from 609m to 1,038m.
Gross profit grew 100% from 140m to 274m
Pretax income and Net income grew 250%.

Funds from operations were positive every year during this period.
Working capital increased during this period (increasing AR and inventories) in keeping with increased revenues.
Due to working capital changes, its NOCFs were volatile and negative in 2 of these 5 years. Overall, NOCF generated over the 5 years was 252.7m.
Its capex for the 5 years was -90.7m.
Its total FCF for the 5 years was 162m (averaging 52m per year).
It paid out 104.3m as dividends during the 5 years and this is a DPO of 35%.
During the 5 years, it retained a total of 154m and grew its net income by 69m from 47m in 2019 to 116 in 2023, giving a return on retained earnings of 69m/154m = 44%.

Its gross profit margins improved from 23% in 2019 to 26.4% in 2023.
Its net profit margins improved from 7.72% in 2019 to 11.18% in 2023.
ROA improved from 4.04% in 2020 to 9.91% in 2023.
ROE improved from 6.14% in 2020 to 15.38% in 2023.

In general, its business which is volatile (though profitable, the earnings are not consistent and not growing consistently), is enjoying a very good stretch this period. Its revenues and profits are the highest for this 5 year period.

The price of Pantech today is MYR1.06 and in 2019 it was MYR0.50. (100% rise).

Has the price reflecting already these good performance?
Will its good earnings sustain or increase in the next few years?
Is 2023 good performance, pent-up rebound demand from the Covide pandemic period?

If you can predict its revenues and earnings going forward, and with clarity, then you can value the share and thus make an intelligent investment.

Notice a significant drop in the prices before the financial announcement. Bursa and SC should be more pro active in clamping down on insider's trading. Otherwise how are investors going to trust the exchange. I personally have invested in SGX.
Less exciting but stable. That's what we want with our hard earned money.
