Techincal Analysis Support RM0.50 follow by RM0.475 Resistance RM0.60
For those who has higher risk can go for peosna-wc which the exercise price is RM0.25 and maturity date 27/1/2020. With pesona tp of RM0.74, the warrant is worth RM0.49 and with pesona tp of RM1.19, the warrant is worth RM0.94
my friend says the calculation got little misleading as some of the contracts are secured in JV with two or three companies... the analysis didn't taking into consideration of this point.... hence the calculation might be OUT !!!!! Profit Margin is reasonable though.... hehehe
omg!!! jay again.... this funny jay is really damn funny, give a lot nonsense here!!! hahahah, if one day prove you the good results, then u buy lor, but at the same time i think in stock market it will go down once the company show off everything u will be the late comer to join the boat, so what i mean is buy before it go after tp 1!!! i hope you understand what did i mean to you!!! newbie
slow and steady moving up............. i keep for 2 years with the higher price. but i confidence profit will be come soonest. just buy and get big ang pau for chinese new year. huat ah.....
KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 5): Hong Leong IB Research has initiated coverage on Pesona Metro Holdings Bhd with a “Buy” rating and target price of 81 sen and said Pesona Metro’s record orderbook of RM2.3 billion implied superior cover ratio of 9.6x, the second highest within its sector coverage.
In a note today, the research house said existing jobs are either government related or from listed developers in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.
It said acquisition to provide concession exposure to the UNIMAP hostel, earnings accretive from day 1.
“Implementation of SKIP to boost orderbook by 29%, recurring income stream once completed. “New share issuance at 70 sen for acquisition should set a new minimum benchmark valuation. “Initiate with Buy, TP: 81 sen (48% upside). Offers superior 3-year earnings CAGR of 61%,” it said.
hong leong's projection quite reasonable, it's even more conservative than mine.
only potential issue is valuation (pg 12). it values the mid-2018 earnings at 15 times PE and take into account the net cash in its valuation despite forecasting a net gearing position. if take conservative 10 times PE instead and exclude the net cash, that will shave off RM214m off its RM650m equity value, TP will drop from RM0.81 to RM0.54
just an opposite view. do your own independent analysis
haha why so defensive if you are confident? I said CIMB was wrong on Vivocom but I didn't say Hong Leong is wrong on Pesona. in fact I said they were conservative. the only thing is valuation multiple which differs among individuals, some may think the company is worth 10 times PE, some may think 20 times. take info has to take both side lah, cannot selectively choose the good ones only
My frend say tis jay bugger one side the say the bank analyst very the close to the company management have insider's infor then the one side say the bank analyst not accurate
My frend say those the people listen to tis jay bugger will miss buying to make big profit. First say no hope now say tp 0.81 more conservative reasonable. Listen to the him let him play chan la.
Jay hong leong's projection quite reasonable, it's even more conservative than mine.

Jay for those who bought and believe in this counter, pls ignore the following. it is just to share with those that are interested but haven't bought this counter.
1. low margins are not forever, but that's a risk when it comes to companies with poor historical track record because we don't know how much is their operating leverage. it is also possible that the low margin was strategically done to outbid competitors and secure more jobs and so their margins may continue to be low
2. based on the contracts they have won last year and the projected schedule, this year revenue should have almost doubled. somehow its increase is more modest. is it due to delays or most of their projects are back-end loaded? I don't know
3. concession earnings is supposed to be steady and low risk. but for some reasons, budaya actually was loss making throughout the construction stage (if u read the circular). this is quite unheard of for Uni concessions. it implies poor cost management. so will they be profitable now at the maintenance stage? my gut feel is yes but will it be the RM10m p.a. as projected by the valuer 2 years ago? I'm not so sure.
plus if you notice budaya accounts, they financed the construction by current payables. so far no repayment has been done for the past 2 years but will it continue to be so after ownership change or pesona have to borrow to pay off the payables and incur interest cost?
4. many people conveniently ignore the warrants which is about 17% of the current shares. when your eps is diluted, then it may not be as great as initially thought. so if you target price is 70c, if diluted by 100/117 then suddenly it's more like 60c. that's a big difference.
the good stuff about this company of course is its record order book and maybe more to come. but before you jump into it, maybe give a thought about the points above as well. 17/11/2016 16:53
Pesona Metro - Blending growth with stability Author: HLInvest | Publish date: Mon, 5 Dec 2016, 09:40 AM
Highlights
Backed by sizable orderbook. Pesona’s new job wins have totalled RM1.8bn YTD, the highest achieved. Its orderbook stands at a record RM2.3bn, growing 3-fold within a year. This translates to a 9.6x cover on FY15 construction revenue, the 2nd highest ratio within our sector universe.
Reputable clientele base. All of Pesona’s existing jobs are either government related or from listed property developers in Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. With 75% of its orderbook comprising of newly secured jobs this year, risk of cost overruns is minimal. More to come. Management is comfortable to achieve RM500m in new job wins for FY17. Potential jobs include hospitals (RM220m) and river beautification (RM200m). Given Pesona’s strong track record in building jobs, we view it as a beneficiary of Greater KL’s catalytic developments. Incoming concession. Pesona will soon conclude the acquisition of SEP, the eventual concessionaire of the completed UNIMAP hostel. As concessionaire, SEP will earn from rental and maintenance totalling RM33m p.a. with potential profit of c.RM12m for FY17-18. Putting things into perspective, this is equivalent to Pesona’s profits last year. SKIP to the next catalyst. Mosaic Theory suggests that Pesona is the 30% concession partner for the SKIP Highway with the balance 70% held by Putrajaya Perdana. At a cost of RM2.1bn, Pesona’s stake would provide RM630m worth of work to undertake, boosting its orderbook by 29%. Upon completing the highway, this would provide another avenue of recurring income to Pesona via tolling.
Risks
Delays in the acquisition of SEP which is targeted for 1Q17.
Forecasts
We project FY16-18 earnings growth of 60%, 67% and 55%, driven by the execution of its record orderbook and new recurring income stream from SEP. All in all, this implies robust 3-year earnings CAGR of 61%. Rating Initiate with BUY, RM0.81 TP (+48% upside) Pesona offers investors exposure to a pure construction play with an incoming stream of recurring earnings. Its financials are solid with strong earnings growth, increasing ROE and net cash positon. The stock is an under-researched and uncrowded trade with low institutional investor shareholding.
Valuation
Our SOP based TP of RM0.81 implies FY17-18 P/E of 16.9x and 10.9x which we reckon is fair for a pure construction play in an earnings upcycle with concession exposure. The issuance of 39.5m shares at RM0.70/share (to acquire SEP) should set a new minimum benchmark valuation for the stock (28% upside to this level).
Given its strong earnings growth, there is potential to double dividends next year. We have assumed 2 sen which offers a decent yield of 3.7%.
