Occasionally, Penta gives this excitement.
Anyway, it revenue is going back to the pre pandemic level. Despite the lockdown , it has managed its cost well. It is irrational for this sell down, so I think this is an opportunity. The chip replenishment cycle will be coming into play soon.

Pentamaster factory

WITH solid orders in hand, especially for higher-margin semiconductor and smartphone-related products, Pentamaster Corp Bhd seems to be well-positioned to make a comeback this year.

The cash-rich Penang-based company has already begun its financial year 2021 with a 15% jump in sales in the first quarter (Q1), although it was not spared from the sector-wide margin pressure.

The earnings trajectory in the coming quarters is expected to be boosted by Pentamaster’s robust order book worth over RM230mil.

Pentamaster’s current order book size, according to UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research, is 18% higher than the normal range last year.

The company has seen stronger order intakes since the beginning of 2021, on the back of improving albeit uneven sentiment for the equipment market, following the roll-out of Covid-19 vaccinations globally.

Not only that, the company also benefits from the ongoing semiconductor industry “supercycle” as market demand exceeds global supply.

Late last month, the Semiconductor Industry Association announced that worldwide sales of semiconductors in Q1 of 2021 rose by almost 18% year-on-year (y-o-y) to US$123.1bil (RM507.85bil).

UOB Kay Hian Malaysia Research believes that “the light is at the end of the tunnel” for Pentamaster and it expects the group’s earnings in 2021 to grow by 35%.

“The year 2020 was a washout period for the group due the worldwide travel restrictions alongside the movement control order (MCO) disruptions in Malaysia.

“We believe the worst could have been fully captured in 2020, and the group has already gradually resumed cross-border travelling for its project site installation, but on a more constrained basis, ” it said in an earlier note.

In financial year 2020 ended Dec 31 (FY20), Pentamaster suffered its first annual decline in net profit since the company turned profitable seven years ago.

Net profit dropped 14.6% y-o-y to RM70.9mil, against another 14.6% fall in revenue to RM418.8mil.

Sales to the electro-optical segment, or previously known as the telecommunications segment, dragged down the full-year turnover, although sales to other key segments such as semiconductor, automotive, medical devices as well as consumer and industrial products all staged double-digit revenue growth on a y-o-y basis.

It is noteworthy that the electro-optical segment contributed almost 43% to the group’s overall revenue in FY20.

Pentamaster began its FY21 with a 4.2% y-o-y drop in net profit to RM16.07mil in Q1, although revenue surged 15% y-o-y to RM115.2mil.

The higher cost of goods sold, administrative expenses and distribution costs have weighed on the bottomline despite the group’s stronger turnover.

Nevertheless, Pentamaster’s smart sensor test equipment and solutions, particularly those supplied to the electro-optical and semiconductor segments, have led to higher revenue.

Meanwhile, the group said that its proprietary i-ARMS (intelligent Automated Robotic Manufacturing System) solutions have received robust demand as more industries and companies adopt industry automation.

Additionally, Pentamaster’s automated assembly solutions for single-use medical devices also contributed to the higher Q1 revenue.

Sales to the automotive segment contributed less than 10% to the group’s revenue in Q1, given the automotive industry-wide production disruption from the microchip shortage situation.

Nevertheless, Pentamaster believes that sales to the automotive segment will see structural growth in the medium term as the chips shortage is addressed.

Looking ahead, CGS-CIMB Research expects Pentamaster to register stronger sales and profit after tax in Q2, building on the performance seen in Q1.

The stronger performance in Q2 is expected to be driven by Pentamaster’s insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) and 3D-magnetometer sensor solutions, targeted at the electric vehicle and smartphone markets.

“We keep our earnings forecasts.

“Easing travel restrictions, stronger earnings contribution from the automotive and medical segments and the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for new medical consumables are potential re-rating catalysts.

“Meanwhile, delays in the FDA approval for new medical consumables and further deferment in order fulfillment due to a prolonged Covid-19 pandemic and material shortages are key downside risks, ” stated CGS-CIMB Research.

The research house has maintained its “add” view on Pentamaster, with an unchanged target price of RM5.85 per share.

AmInvestment Bank Research, which has a “hold” call on the stock, says it continues to like Pentamaster, but believes that the stock is fairly valued at the current price.

It says that Pentamaster’s positive prospects are driven by the growth in its automated test equipment segment, underpinned by the sustained growth for smart sensors and the upcoming 3D sensing technology wave, tied to the telecommunications and automot
