More importantly as reported, ASP prices have increased, causing revenue and sales volume to go up by 44%. Also very important, dividends. More importantly, more lines in production indicating higher demand for products.

Exchange rate issues up 10% in a month has stabilized back, and it seems glove oversupply is reducing well

AS reported, loss due to abrupt higher RM value to USD and increase operating cost on new production line.

No. We are NOT investing for another pandemic. That could be another 100 years from now. We are investing in US-China rivalry and it is bearing fruit since USTR announce 50%(2025) and 100%(2026) tariff on China gloves.
Between Intco and Bluesail production is about 90bill annual capacity. With tariff, Msia and Thai glove has the upside on volume and ASP to sell in US market (largest market for gloves).

Even with 10% or 20% tariff on Msia & Thai, we are still cheaper than China. But I don't think that will happen. US target is really China thanks to Supermax. Supermax is on board in American Medical Manufacturers Association (AMMA). They are the one convince US to place tariff on China. Supermax production capacity in Texas is only 4.8 bill per annum, meaning the rest of US order will come from Supermax Msia. Supermax will not be silly to want tariff on Msia gloves.

And if Supermax to expand they production in US, that would eat a lot into their capital. They spent billions and are losing money these few years bcoz of building their plant in US. It would take years for this expansion to take place. So we have a good 4 years for Msia gloves. By then PE of 150 will drop to PE 25 when the profit has increased tremendously.

Please do your research before you shoot your mouth.
On Supermax.

Harta management is the "best" is only by reputation. I give you that. But that is just a small part to the overall picture. Don't forget, glove is a LOW margin product and easy to make. China was a threat before the tariff. AFTER the tariff, Msia gloves are on an even playing field.

You talk about automation, Kossan has been doing that since 2017 and with strong cash position, they had been upgrading production since 2021. Now is almost 2025. They had spent 4 years to be fully automated. Kossan is no way behind Hartalega in this aspect.
https://theedgemalaysia.com/article/cover-story-slow-and-steady-route-digital-transformation

Kossan has one bad reputation problem; CEO sells shares when price is high. A bit annoying but hey, he is allowed to do that. This caused Kossan to be undervalued AT THE MOMENT. But things that matters like production, quality etc ... Kossan is as good as Harta. Remember, Kossan and Harta were the only 2 glove companies that were not banned by US Custom on labour issues.

Topglove ... well they are big. That's all.

So Dawchok, it not arrogance. It's facts. Get off your high horse on "best management". It's only goes on for a while. It will wear off fast. Btw, Kossan is the only glove company making profit this Q3. And been paying dividend.

Chipee on fire with the facts

Posted by findfreedom > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

US occupied about 50% of harta revenue. This means harta still need to fight with china for the another 50% revenue. Pre-covid 2019, when we decide the glove price, harta share price is around RM4+. Now we fight fiercely with china and harta share price now stand at RM3.43. How much upside do we really have?

Posted by Chipee > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Aiyoh ... 50% of US order is secured without China kacau2.
The other 50% is price war and you think Msia cannot fight them? Glove is low margin, low tech product. China's cost base is no difference than Msia.
For comparison 2023 annual report: Cost of Revenue/Revenue
Harta = 86.77%
INTCO (China) = 86.30%
To me... this is not much difference.

Before COVID, China was not focus too much on gloves but after covid and their production increases, they want to muscle in by throwing price. Basically stealing Msia customers base. But remember this, OVERHEAD cost is a KILLER in this kind of VOLUME game products. That's why Topglove is still making losses. INTCO (China) is 79 bill annual capacity. Kossan and Harta stands at 35bill annually which is at the optimum production capacity to make money. INTCO will go into losses soon enough. AND without US market, China will lose even more.

Remember Evergrande? Why have they gone bankrupt? High debt. INTCO debt exploded from RMB280 mill to RMB7.17 bill. That is 25.6 times. When their production size cannot justify the sales they have, they will cut down production significantly and lose economy of scale. They have enough cash to cover their debt but they definitely cannot THROW PRICE to steal Msia customer base.

With US tariff, China is no longer a threat.

Trump has announced an additional 10% tariff on all Chinese products, raising the tariff on Chinese medical gloves to 60% from the current 50% under the Biden administration. This new tariff will take effect in January 2025.
