lumber futures still above usd1000 so no reason for FLB to be so weak. Just pulled down by overall market sentiment

Tried to pick up 1.39 this afternoon, not successful. See tomorrow.

Many of those who bought upon breakout at 1.62 are panic and cutting losses since yesterday.

i am happy to collect back my shares at much much lower price now.

Alamak, you have a very good point, I went in too early. However, based on FLBHD profitability comparing with lumber prices, lumber prices need to drop by more than half from current level to effect FLBHD profitability/dividends. Last few days, I believe is more general panic selling in reaction to interest rate hike.

Posted by balvin71 > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Who knows, maybe, a bit of force selling by margin players.

I notice that flb put a lot of spare money in money market fund. Does anyone has any idea why they do so? Wouldnt it nice if they return the money to shareholders as a special dividen?

Posted by s3phiroth > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

The amount of money they put in money market fund is about 45cent per shares. How nice if they return just half of it to shareholders....

Posted by yfchong > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

enter to FLB. guess 1.37....... no doubt FLN is not at 500 Mil Cap not interested by many folks, just imagine their net cast value per share.., Like that lor.. Important is RV drive

Posted by balvin71 > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Yes, I have held FLBHD shares for many years. Am hoping this financial year will have same amount of dividend as in 2018 of RM0.16 per share, hopefully better. That time lumber averaged at abouts $500~$600. Quarter 1 2022, should record best profit ever and next quarter maybe 3rd best after 2021 Quarter 4. Last few days lumber has come down. But still high compared to historical levels.

Posted by Fabien _the efficient capital allocator > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

Based on the North America lumber market outlook report, housing starts, which is a primary driver of lumber demand and selling price is expected to continue growing in year 2022. Thus, we expect that market price for wood products is sustainable in current year based on the US consumption of lumber as well as continued supply-side constraints due to its logistic issue and also Russia-Ukraine conflict.
However, costs of raw material and other components are increasing in current year due to increased oil price.
Besides, revision of minimum wage effective from 1 May 2022 would increase our production costs by approximately 4%. The impact of the increasing production cost can be minimised if we are able to increase our production volume through the employment of more workers. However, the current selling price of plywood,
without taking into consideration of the recent strengthening of US dollar, is able to absorb the increase of the production costs. Based on the current operating environment, the Board of Directors is confident that the Group will achieve a new height in year 2022.

Posted by Musangkingfarmer > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

If without the logistic issues, the profit and revenue will be much higher. Because there was no available bulk carrier delivering the plywood to US in February and March 2022 while availability of container shipping was limited as well.

Q1 FCF is 26mil or 26sen per share. 3 sen divvy is a tiny piece. Cash balances a whopping 106mil vs MC of 151mil. Very hard for this company to go bankrupt

Very good overview.. good prospect!

Posted by captainjeremysparrow > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

DIVIDENDS
 Interim dividend – 3.00 sen per share (1Q 2021: NIL)
 Equals to pay out ratio of 40% (EPS of 7.43 sen)
 Ex date – 30.06.2022
 Payment date – 15.07.2022

Wow. if continue to give dividends with 40% pay-out ratio, sure super hoseh. Can achieve 10-15 cents dividends per year!!

Posted by s3phiroth > 1 month ago | Report Abuse

I wish they reduce the investment in money market fund and give us a special dividen. Afterall, the return of money market fund is very low although it has very low risk. IMO it is better return these money to shareholders.

2015 was their record year. PAT 31.7mil. EPS 30sen and DPS 15sen (about 50% payout)

If they can maintain and do a bit better, hopefully can achieve 30sen earnings per share again matching their previous high

Yes, with good footing from RV, can close 30 mil will be awesome.. cheers guys

habis lah, let see after dividend below RM1.00 can catch boh

Posted by Fabien _the efficient capital allocator > 3 days ago | Report Abuse

Currently, FLB has pending orders (until 3Q) with locked in plywood prices hovering near record high. Going into 2QFY22, we believe FLB will likely post stronger QoQ earnings on the back of (i) sustaining or slightly stronger GP margin; (ii) delayed revenue recognition from 1QFY22, and (iii) higher plywood realized price amid rising geopolitical tension.

Posted by Fabien _the efficient capital allocator > 3 days ago | Report Abuse

We raise FLB’s FV to RM 2.26 (from RM1.98), ascribing a 8.6x P/E (5Y average) on FY23 EPS of 26.6 sen as we roll over our valuation base year to FY23. We like FLB given its favourable product mix with primary exposure to the US RV market (c.50% of US sales) that commands a higher ASP. The strong USD will also benefit FLB as >95% of its sales are denominated in USD while >80% of the cost is in ringgit.
