Note 3: Prospects
In March 2024, our Group's Construction segment successfully secured a contract from Tanjung Nakhoda (M) Sdn Bhd ("Tanjung Nakhoda") for the construction of Johor Golf & Country Club ("JGCC"), valued at RM120.82 million. In the same month, the Group also attained a Delivery Phase (Early Works) contract from the Australian
Department of Defence, valued at RM11.04 million. This recent achievement further bolsters our Group's involvement in the design and construct infrastructure project to redevelop military facilities at the Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) Base Butterworth, Penang. Consequently, the cumulative value of contracts secured by the Group for the RMAF project now stands at RM23.34 million.
Currently, our order book stands at approximately RM1.10 billion, with RM117 million consists of internal development projects. We are actively pursuing new construction opportunities through tendering processes in both the private and government sectors, with a combined value of RM4.8 billion.
uncle Kyy should come here la to promote this counter which meet his Golden Rule of Investing... "2 consequtive profitable QR". After all..uncle Kyy is the genius in construction industry. By forward PEx=10x pon price should already 0.80. If uncle Kyy promote..than we could see it fly above 1.00 ..hehe
@Iwillbeback. I'm new here @ this counter. Feel interested lately after the company reported its stellar QR3 24. Do some research and joined the counter....
Fajar construction business keep losing money, log timber doesn't contribute much, luckily new property development contribute earnings for the company. Once the property development completed, no billings come in, Fajar's earnings will turn -ve because the more construction project they secured, the more they losing money
The Group recorded revenue of RM142.65 million and profit before tax of RM29.12 million in the current quarter, compared to revenue of RM46.66 million and profit before tax of RM3.30 million in the preceding year corresponding quarter. The higher revenue was mainly contributed by Property Development and Construction segments, whereas, the profit before tax was mainly attributed by the Property Development segment.
Construction Segment Construction segment reported revenue of RM40.08 million and loss before tax of RM3.06 million in the current quarter, compared to revenue of RM28.42 million and loss before tax of RM2.76 million in the preceding year corresponding quarter. Higher revenue registered in the current quarter was mainly due to the newly awarded projects had started to progressively contribute revenue to the segment. The loss before tax in the current quarter was mainly due to higher operating expenses as compared to preceding year corresponding quarter.
Property Development segment reported revenue of RM99.05 million and profit before tax of RM33.40 million in the current quarter, compared to revenue of RM17.70 million and profit before tax of RM5.57 million in the preceding year corresponding quarter. The surge in revenue and profit before tax in the current quarter were mainly contributed from Vierra Residence @ Kinrara development project where it showed incremental growth in the development work progress as compared to preceding year corresponding quarter.
The Construction segment of the Group remains dedicated to ensuring the efficient and timely completion of our ongoing projects. These encompass a diverse range, including high-rise residential buildings, apartments, retail complexes, golf club house, and the redevelopment of military facilities. We anticipate that these projects will contribute positively to the Group's future earnings and net assets per share, starting from the financial year ending 30 June 2024, and extending thereafter. Currently, our order book stands at approximately RM1.10 billion, with RM117 million consists of internal development projects. We are actively pursuing new construction opportunities through tendering processes in both the private and government sectors, with a combined value of RM4.8 billion. ---- Have to read the info entirely... For me about the construction sector prospects, we can read the important statement by the company.
"We anticipate that these projects will contribute positively to the Group's future earnings and net assets per share, starting from the financial year ending 30 June 2024, and extending thereafter."
I have been followed Fajar for many years before starting the 1st property project in Sentul and in Australia and involved in log timber business. If you study Fajar last few years QR, you will notice that without earnings contribution from Rica Residence in Sentul, Gardenhill and Paragon in Melbourne, log timber and now Vierra Residence in Kinrara, Fajar QR is disappointed. Vierra Residence still can contribute to Fajar QR for a couple of years but it will be ended one day. Property Development can make money but not construction
last years were challenging for all construction companies not only Fajar Moving forward the whole contexts is totally different and thats why Fajar recovery is stellar and growth can be exponential due to more projects in the pipeline.
Fajar is growing and expanding company, buy and hold for months or a year, you will not regret it, it will bring you good fortune. within a year, I personally is confident that it will be pushed up by others investors to 80 cts - RM1/-. Hofully my dream will come true.😃😃😃😃
By next Q or year end , Fajar would have 10 sen eps ( rolling 4 Q ) , so at this price of 53sen is considered super cheap . At eps of 10sen, Price should be at RM One at this super bull era ...well from value investing point of view
If you think that his counter has good future potential, this is the good time for you to accumulate your shares for investment. End of this month (June) is the year end closing for the company. I expect the year end closing should be excellent then the previous years results.
Currently the company has already acquired billion dollars worth of projects in hand and I am confident that the company will have more contracts coming up in time to come. Other than the above, The company is tendering for few billions dollars of construction projects across private and government sectors. I am confident that the company will be successful in acquisition additional projects out of its tenders and bring into positive profit to the company.
If you look at the construction segment result every quarter, it not much contribute to the overall profit of the company, even sometimes present loss when the more revenue of construction recognised
Icng you are right about the past But you keep harping on the past, investment is about the future and Fajar future earnings are cast in stone. You are blinded.
