let gadang hold my ball tight and warm more than 2 years , is good time to see gadang move upwards for better prospects , as long as market sentimental is good , is good or construction sector , is good for gadang as well
I hope Gadang gets its footing. When local contractors are trying to tie up with Chinese contractors firm as Gadang would fall back. It's time for Govt to step in and have a new ruling for local firms. Govt must protect the local participation, otherwise matilah.
Susah la gadang someone is pressing the price long time ago, when other construction up , gadang up little bit but other construction drop gadang drop more
Review Stripping off some one-off items of RM0.2mn, GADANG’s 1HFY24 registered lower core earnings of RM7.8mn (-6.9% YoY), which was disappointing as it accounted for only 36.6% of our full-year projection. The negative variance was mainly underpinned by: (i) slower-thanexpected work progress for certain projects, and (ii) higher operating expenses in the construction and utilities divisions. YoY, 1HFY24 topline increased 13.1% to RM291.9mn, thanks to higher sales recorded and improved work progress in the property division. However, its core PBT plunged by 7.7% YoY to RM12.7mn due to higher operating costs for its 9MW mini-hydro power plant and margin erosion in the construction division caused by higher raw material and labour costs. QoQ, the 2QFY24’s revenue jumped 25.5% to RM162.4mn, largely driven by: (i) higher construction work progress, (ii) improved property sales, and (iii) the commencement of commercial operation of the 9MW minihydro power plant. Despite this growth, the core PBT was halved down to RM4mn, compared to RM8.7mn in 1QFY24, due to escalating operating costs incurred in both construction and utilities divisions. Impact Considering the weaker-than-expected results, we adjusted our revenue recognition and margin assumptions for certain ongoing projects. Consequently, our earnings forecasts for FY24-26F are revised downward by 20.7%/15.9%/12.0%, respectively, reflecting the challenging operating conditions. Outlook As of end-Nov 2023, the group’s construction order book and unbilled property sales stood at RM1.1bn and RM280mn, respectively, providing a clear earnings prospect for the group over the next two years. Additionally, the property division anticipates a better sales contribution in the upcoming quarters, supported by compelling sales package incentives. Valuation Following the earnings revision, we lower our TP to RM0.23 (from RM0.28) based on the SOP valuation. Maintain Sell call due to the stretched valuation.
Gadang get a lot small parcels from IJM. What do you mean bro ? You mean if IJM wins big contracts, they will farm out some small kacanh putih jobs to Gadang ? What is your basis on making this statement ?
By the way, HSR is too far away...more practical to look at Bayan Lepas LRT, LRT3 and MRT3.
Right now, the RTS project faces prolongation costs - expected to be completed in 2024 but delayed to 2026. Dunno whether Gadang can claim these costs or not.
gadang at least start positive and making money for 2 QR, much better than other construction counter , as long as making profit , sharing price will sustain
