KUALA LUMPUR (Oct 27): Kossan Holdings (M) Sdn Bhd, the largest shareholder of Kossan Rubber Industries Bhd, has emerged as the substantial shareholder in Luxchem Corp Bhd, after acquiring 6.09 million shares, or a 0.569% stake.

According to Luxchem’s filing, Kossan Holdings bought the block shares via direct business transaction on Wednesday (Oct 25). Based on the back-of-the envelope calculation, the cost of this purchase was RM2.86 million, based on Luxchem’s closing price of 47 sen at the time.

Kossan had been decommissioned to cut 3 billion pieces at q1 or q2 not so sure u can study back previously qr

Wah lau ... drag to next week liao this QR result. ...sigh ... why ler?

Posted by Chipee > 2023-11-10 18:11 | Report Abuse

I don't think they have impairment loss bcoz they didn't decommission. They improve their machine and process to increase productivity. Line will still jalan after improvement. Unlike Harta, terus shutdown.

2020 data on production capacity
TopGLove 86.4 billion pcs
Hartalega 40.5 billion pcs
Kossan 32 billion pcs
Supermax 26.2 billion pcs

So Kossan & Supermax is in the sweet spot in production size for current demand. TopGlove and Harta got higher production capability means their fixed cost is high.
Harta shutdown Bestari Jaya is cut down 32% of production capacity = 27.5bill.... So Kossan is still within the range of safe play in production size.

Posted by Chipee > 2023-11-10 18:15 | Report Abuse

Harta cut down close to 13 billion pcs per year. Kossan only reduce 3 biliion pcs.

Kossan Q2 report

"Recognising these challenges, the Group had embarked on a capacity rationalisation exercise in FY2022 to be more efficient and lower operating costs where we decommissioned two older plants (14 years and 19 years respectively) with a total capacity of 3 billion pieces"

But I can't find any impairment cost for this. Anyone could explain this?

Posted by Chipee > 2023-11-10 18:36 | Report Abuse

If got impairment loss like Harta, it would had been reported in financials. No report means no losses lor. Moreso, 14 & 19 years ... DEPRECIATION already recorded over the years. Those plants should ALREADY recorded "losses" in those years.

Posted by Chipee > 2023-11-13 14:02 | Report Abuse

Riverstone has annual capacity of 15 billion. Meaning they are smaller. Fixed cost is lower. Of coz their Net profit is good. But only at this transition moment. But they can't take the advantage when demand spikes. It's gloves we are talking about. Nothing high end. Glove is a volume game.
