Apa so massive? Apa big big announcement? I think balik balik only MOU. Ini company pakar MOU saje. Tengoklah company lain dapat projek juta juta. Company ini bukan buat construction pun!. Ia hanya pembekal bahan binaan saja.
Let me unpack to you what (i understand) on the significant of this MOU with SPNB.
1) 20,000 unit of house for New Generation of Felda Settlers. First 10,000 units is already on hand. Target completion :- 2 years.
2) SPNB own housing - Aspirasi , Idaman and Mesra. Some of the supply for Mesra is already on going. With this MOU, AJIYA has secured a strong foothold in local housing market especially, when the government is emphasizing on usage of IBS. Ajiya will be given access to supply to 50,000 units of housing in next 5 years
3) PR1MA - There are several project running and around 8000 units on hand awaiting orders
4) PPA1M - opening to PPA1M
5) KPKT - Already some projects are in the final phase of negotiation and construction should commence soon. Impact will be felt in FY'18
SPNB, PR1MA, PPA1M and KPKT are tasked to provide 250,000 units of housing for Malaysian in next 3-5 years.
Bottom Line impact:-
a) Should Ajiya starts the 10000unit of Felda 2nd generation housing in 2 months and the contractor completed in the housing in 2 years (until June 2019).
Profit Margin approx. 3K per unit x 2500units per quarter = RM7.5M or RM30M per annum. (profit margin is 10% a low double digit of the per unit value of the AGIBS system)
b) Should Ajiya secure the supply to all landed Aspirasi, Idaman and Mesra projects (approximately 12000 units in next 2 years)
Profit margin approx. 3K per unit x 1500 per quarter = RM4.5M or RM18M per annum.
Base on the projection of projects coming up, Ajiya should be doubling up its profit to RM50M by 2018. EPS would increase to 18.06 per share.
Based on P/E of 12 , AJIYA share price should be worth arond RM1.30 to 1.40 a share.
Bearing in mind that with more project coming onboard, efficiency and margin will improved further.
Salient Point for this IBS and why it will work well with the government appointed contractors:- 1) AGIBS components consist of almost 80% of the material needed to construct a house (from ground onwards). It covers wall, window frame, window, facia board, steel trusses, metal roofing, door frame, car porch, etc etc. All this are available in house and manufactured by Ajiya various subsidiaries.
Benefits to SPNB/ Government- With the material cost covered mainly by SPNB and government, the contractors need not worry about cash flows and material price fluctuation. Hence they are able to concentrate in their core work - constructing. In short the deliveries of houses could be hastened.
With material cost secured, the government can safely meets their agenda of provided "affordable housing" to the mass.
Benefits to Ajiya On Ajiya side, this MOU s significant as it enable a "packaged" sales for all the components it manufactures. everything inhouse means a better "fit" for all components and a seamless supply chain. In the next 5 years, this will translate to better margin, less returns or rejects and improved bottom line.
AGIBS provide a solid avenue for all AJIYA units with a guarantee demand for all the components they are now manufacturing.
2) AGIBS is easy to install and use. AGIBS is easy to install. It doesn't require complicated tools and can be anyone can master the AJIYA has also established a training facilities with CIDB to provide training for installers of AGIBS system.
Benefit to Government Provide job opportunity to local. Installer of AGIBS system gets goods returns and are paid relatively well. They reward incentive is based on the number of units of house they installed. A skilled team of 5 person could complete installation of 15-20 units of house within 14 days. It will reduces the reliance on foreign worker.
Benefit to Ajiya With more trained installers, the acceptance of AGIBS will grow. More and more people are familiar with AGIBS and its advantages
3) Quality finishing AGIBS has far provide great finishing and quality. AGIBS enjoy goods IBS score, Acoustic score as well as good fire rating.
This is just my observation and opinion based on information obtained.
Lucky lucky, sold earlier, I thought their IBS is good, now only I know all construction companies come out with their own IBS, seem like big competition ahead
KUALA LUMPUR (July 25): Ajiya Bhd’s net profit for the second quarter ended May 31, 2017 (2QFY17) surged nearly five times to RM1.62 million from RM325,000 a year ago, on higher foreign currency translation gain.
Its quarterly revenue, however, fell 11% to RM90.48 million from RM101.15 million a year ago, mainly due to weak market conditions and stiff competition in the construction sector which affected the demand for the group’s products, said Ajiya in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.
Ajiya registered a higher foreign currency translation gain of RM1.91 million compared with RM486,000 in the same quarter last year.
For the cumulative six months of FY17, its net profit rose three times to RM10.66 million from RM3.42 million a year ago, though revenue slid 5% to RM184.32 million from RM194.79.
Going forward, the group said it is is strongly poised to leverage the government's efforts to provide affordable housing to the low and middle-income group, based on its long-term strategy to be a total solutions provider through its building solution, Ajiya Green Integrated Building Solutions (AGIBS).
“Our traditional business of providing building materials such as our metal and glass products will put us in good stead as part of being a total solutions provider. In the same vein, our traditional business will merge well with our new business venture,” said Ajiya.
“The signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU between Ajiya and Syarikat Perumahan Negara Bhd (SPNB) is a step in the right direction,” Ajiya added.
It inked the MOU with SPNB on July 14 to implement AGIBS in the development of housing projects under SPNB.
Shares in Ajiya closed unchanged at 82.5 sen today for a market capitalisation of RM251.28 million.
