KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 1): Pentamaster Corp Bhd’s (KL:PENTA) second-quarter net profit fell 15.87%, as its biggest revenue contributor — the automated test equipment (ATE) segment — recorded lower sales volume, higher employee expenses, provisions for slow-moving inventories, and research and development expenditure for certain projects.

The group's net profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 (2QFY2024) dropped to RM19.9 million from RM23.65 million in 2QFY2023, while revenue dipped 3.11% to RM171.37 million from RM176.88 million.

Their medical assembly solution saved their a** again. Penta is the only listed one in Malaysia that makes assembly equipment for medical industry at this scale. I believe if there's a recession in the US, the contraction of medical industry is inevitable, although this industry is well known as an industry that is recession proof. They will reduce the capex to survive through the storm as well, hence it is not looking good for Penta in the short term. However, Penta is very aggressive when comes to seize new opportunities, for example medical, renewable energy and more. Their diversification strategy is the correct strategy to mitigate downturn of one of their core competency. I will continue to invest in Penta (not MY but HK) due to the cheap valuation there.

The QR might be bad, but the most important thing that I'm looking for is the aspect of this business. No point looking at the business performance that was a quarter ago.

Not sure this news affect local technical stocks as most company support INTEL.

My guess is intel will only start to purchase equipment when there is a demand. The newly built factories are not going to be in operations any soon. This is a rumour that's widely known in the industry. By the way, penta has more to deal with automotive (China EV players) , medical device (abbot, Boston scientific...) and electro optical (iPhone). Intel pg15 is right beside their Bayan Lepas HQ, but nothing much to do with their core business.

This is an old news bruh, and the impact has already shown in all the penang semicon companies stock prices, especially UWC. Yes, penta automotive division is definitely "slowing down" but the orders are not cancelled. When their medical division finally takes off, we can expect easily 30-40% price appreciation. It's a medium risk, medium reward stock at this moment.

The Group closed its 3Q2024 with a profit before taxation of RM21.4 million (3Q2023: RM37.5 million), representing a decrease of approximately 43.0% from the same period last year, mainly impacted by the lower ATE sales volume and the significant depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Ringgit which has led to an unfavourable foreign exchange loss. However, the bulk of this foreign exchange loss remained unrealised as the foreign currencies have not been converted into Ringgit.

Their sales are in usd?

Customers especially the medical side are from the US.

RHB noted that Pentamaster’s 3QFY2024 pre-tax profit margin improved sequentially to 9.7% versus 6% in 2QFY2024, thanks to higher-margin projects.
“This offset the weaker factory automation solutions margin, which dropped 5.1 percentage points to 28.2%, due to higher material cost,” it added.
Nevertheless, RHB retained its 'buy' call on Pentamaster and unchanged TP of RM5.95, pending Pentamaster’s analysts briefing later on Friday.
The house anticipated Pentamaster to deliver annual earnings of RM95 million for FY2024 and RM126 million in FY2025 as at press time.

While DeepSeek's rise may impact the global semiconductor industry, Malaysia's semiconductor sector, which primarily focuses on assembly, testing, and packaging rather than producing cutting-edge AI-specific chips, will experience less direct impact.
