‘Land being investigated does not belong to Lagenda’
- The 650ha of land being investigated is believed to be the Lagenda senior personnel’s private venture, echoing the property developer’s stance that the company is not linked to the probe.
- According to Lagenda’s 2023 annual report, its unit Taraf Nusantara Sdn Bhd on Aug 9, 2022, bought 422 acres of development/agricultural land in Mukim Durian Sebatang, Perak, from Ladang Awana Sdn Bhd for RM92.40 million.
- Lagenda being asked if the 422 acres purchased from Ladang Awana were part of the 650ha being investigated, a company spokesman replied: “The 422 acres of land which Lagenda acquired is in a different location [Mukim Durian Sebatang, near the Teluk Intan town centre]. It is not located in Sitiawan, Manjung, where they understand the 650ha reported in the media to be located.
- Furthermore, the 422 acres purchased by Lagenda is not designated as Malay reserve land. For completeness, note that Lagenda had engaged an independent adviser and also obtained the requisite shareholder approval prior to the acquisition of the 422 acres. The circular in relation to the transaction would also have spelt out the land’s particulars.
- Also that Lagenda had not sighted or been served with any official document regarding the MACC investigation.
- It should be noted that Jee Ming is a director of Ladang Awana. The group would like to establish that Ladang Awana is not in any way a part of the Lagenda Group of Companies.
Expected. Let it flow and volume continued to be at the low side and no following up interest. Almost more than a week. Let's get ready for another round entry point 15-20 cents from the recent high. Or even lower. Let's catch the 20 cents margin again.
https;//theedgemalaysia.com/node/714074. with its order book of almost RM1B and the fact remain epicon was founded after they acquired KTB only around sept 2023 . Lagenda case happen in 2012 so where is the logic of being push down this way.
Fact remains past factual. 2 weeks have passed and so far so good. If the lowest point and largest transaction have been fully absorbed and digested, this should turn into middle and long term investment. Invest with confidence. Let's grab the highest yield.
Managing Director of Lagenda Properties, Dato’ Jimmy Doh Jee Ming <拿督卓致明> commented: “
We are pleased with our performance in the first quarter of 2024. Revenue and profit after tax grew by 24.7% and 9.0% year-on-year to RM225.6 million and RM42.9 million respectively. This is a good start to the year and sets the tone for a fruitful 2024 as we look to increase our momentum over the coming quarters.
Looking ahead, we expect our confirmed sales to grow over the upcoming quarters as we will ramp up our launches. We had only launched over 500 units in Q1FY2024 and so far as of May 2024, that figure has now reached over 3,000 units. Our goal is to launch more than 8,000 units overall across Perak, Johor, Selangor and Pahang over the course of the year, which will expand our presence to five states in Malaysia inclusive of Kedah. This marks a significant increase from the 3,600 homes launched in 2023 and reflects our commitment to addressing the growing nationwide demand for affordable housing. To add on, based on our target launches this year, over 75% of our launches in 2024 will be outside our initial homebase of Perak. With our proven track record and strong take-up rates to date, we are confident that the new launches will be well-received by the market.
Our growth plans are backed by our landbank of 5,310 acres which carries a remaining Gross Development Value (GDV) of approximately RM14.8 billion. We will primarily focus on capitalising on the demand for affordable housing in Johor, where we currently hold approximately 1,522 acres, representing 29% of our total landbank. Moving forward, we are dedicated to further establishing ourselves on a larger scale as the preferred affordable housing developer for Malaysians. Overall, we are optimistic on our prospects for the remainder for the year and excited of our future growth in the years to come.
I think some Fund Managers are still dumping their shares while Jimmy and Bros are buying.
Hopefully they can let the Fund Managers regret and buy back their shares at RM1.70 or RM2.00 later, when all the dusts are being cleared, with Q results showing double of profit and div then.....
