Dear KNM Management, It has been disappointing to note yet another grandfather disappointing story from you on the Q2, 2018 results. KNM has become a great story teller each Q which is not pleasing any shareholders. To refresh your memory the losses recorded since 2016 has been as follows :
As a result of these continuous losses, KNMs' balance sheet is getting weaker i.e the hard fought and built up reserves (retained earnings) has dropped significantly by an astounding RM1345m when compared between the position as at 31/12/15 (RM1766m) and 30/6/18 (RM421m). If the trend continues this reserves could soon be completely wiped off and KNM will be in total distress mode.
Despite raising RM51m via a private placement on 29/11/17 of which RM40m was paid to reduce your debts, your total loans and borrowings (in multiple currencies with high forex risk exposures) as at 30/6/18 (RM1296m) has in fact increased by RM108m in comparison to the Loans and borrowings amounting to RM1188m as at 31/12/17.
With all these losses and mounting debts with high forex risk exposure, I regard KNM is bleeding and in trouble waters, now blindly heading towards a storm. Please move the ship to the shore and first find a way to fix the holes and cracks in the ship. Please review the assets (e.g Borsig) and loss making segments and consider some disposal so that the loans and borrowings could be reduced/paid off with a view to getting back into profitability and strengthening the balance sheet for the mutual benefit of all the distressed shareholders.
The above high debt level was brought up and mentioned during the last AGM and the Management mentioned that the debts are at manageable level. If it is at a manageable level, then how come still continuously showing a loss despite recording higher revenue in Q2, 2018?. The recorded higher revenue trend is still a good positive sigh for KNM despite the losses as KNM still has hope for a positive turnaround provided some drastic measures are taken. Hope KNM Management can openly reconsider its view and thoughts on this matter.
I also note that there has been on mention on the progress of the Peterborough project in the latest report. Hope KNM can exercise some transparency on this matter as well so that shareholders are in the know and not kept in the dark.
Yes, Poor earnings but jewel assets. anyway, i still have strong confidence on its renewable energy future process and its turnaround. If got money, i'll top up further on this KanNiMa gradually. wakaka.
When the quarter financial result shows losses, you all panic,
You must know, this is one of the strategies the big players are hunting your shares.
Losses due to depreciation of ethanol plants in thailand, Normally every year will depreciate 20% when record in accounting book. This is normal but will not affect the earning or even cash.
Just like why most of the directors from Sendirian Berhad company used to buy car or machines under the name of the company, so that the company can claim back the depreciated value to avoid paying tax for profit.
This one is exactly the same, when you only see losses and you get panic, infact you are selling cheap to big player.
When everything gets back to the right track, big player will goreng and sell back to you at RM 1.50
You dont believe in unlucky? look no further those that bought KNM will all lose money after losing money. Means drop low d then further lower until you regret buying stocks. Anyway good luck to KnM holders.
Buying many things is value investing but buying KNM is not called value investing. Its called speculations or gamble and hope it will be goreng. Dont believe me ask many other pros that couldnt be bothered to post here.
But i also no doubt with that many gamblers here Knm will still be goreng again but be smart to take money when you see else not only no money to take later left only paper.
Last i already told you guys to take profit near 20cents coz this stock is always one night stand type. So good luck to wait and hope your waiting bear fruits.
Stock invest is personality .. if you believe just buy if no just sell and put your money to invest which your confidence counter .. all decision is make by yourself ....
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
