From highly recommended by analysts when price traded above 1.40 to the existing level and no sign of recovery. Loans suddenly disappeared from 700m to zero, wonder. Only good for trading now. Est Dec results +/-15%.
Just a stock take on what company had said in early 2019: Tune Protect Group Bhd (TPG) expects a boost to its revenue growth over the next 12 months, following the rollout of its dynamic pricing optimisation initiative. The initiative, which was launched in the first quarter of 2019, features real-time optimisation of travel insurance on AirAsia’s booking platform....
Unfortunately the reverse is the truth, revenue continues to fall and make sure management and bod remunerations move along the same direction.
Tunepro has been on a long term down trend for 5 years since Mar 2015 to 2020. Believe it has bottom. Share price has fallen from RM2.00 to 55sen Down side risk is limited.
When you buy at bottom say 0.56 which is below its Book Value, then what risk you are talking about? Dividend of 3 sen min is almost assured. In other words, it can only go upwards or worst case scenario, it will stagnant at this level.
If you want to play momentum stocks, you will have to chase high which can cause you to lose a lot of money in the event that the growth is not materialised
i dont know. actually it is not a bad stock because every quarter it is earning, but the debt is a quite high & it not improving their earning. i think if next q still improve it will delay a little bit maybe 1-2weeks let ppl notice then it will start go back to 70sen
If virus wide spreads, possible decline in number of tourists, potential claims due to cancellation etc. May revise down further despite the price has dropped substantially to the extent that management is silent.
It will drop as there can be lots of cancellations and claim for refunds on travel insurance policies. PHEIC declaration is strong case for force majeure. No Airlines will let passengers board the flight with the slightest hint of temperatures or flu under present circumstances. Volume of travelling and travel insurance demand will dip significantly in view of 2019-nCoV. In addition, parent Company AA shocking negative news today is not going to help matters.
This is a good proxy for AA although , its biz is not only AA :)

The company has two general insurance businesses, Tune Insurance Malaysia Berhad as well as an associate company, Tune Insurance Public company Limited, located in Thailand. Both offer a range of products while also underwriting travel businesses in their respective countries. The company generates the majority of its revenue from general insurance business segment.
Management Expense as a % of Gross Written Premium is higher than other insurers. Somebody is sitting high in their chairs without doing much work. Why?
No noticeable advertisement presence. Not even an link into MyEG for donkey years.
All of that doesn't make sense for a supposedly digital company with priority sales leads from AirAsia where sales is made with mouse clicks.
Seriously.
1) Fire the distribution head - Gross Written Premiums keep shrinking. Boost it up 2) Fire the Operations head, CIO and CFO - Please push down Management expense to <30% of GWP it's now 40+% . 3) combined ratio is too close for comfort at 97%. Push it down to 95%
For a digital company with high expense ratios it's basically 2 things -> SOmebody is making money from the IT vendors -> Too many expensive dead weights in operations, marketing and legal
Distribution org structure is so inefficient.There's a Group Head, POS Head, Broking Head and a Chief Agency Officer... OMG.
How can there be so many wankers for such a small Gross Written Premium pie.
Just merge Broking with Group as 1 bos. cut down the salary. MAke sure Agency and Broking fellas share their leads and get rid of channel base rivalry. IF they're silo makers - fire their ass.
Back in 2012 the Management expense ratio was just a quarter of what it is today.
Fire the Head of Strategy role. Seriously useless for a small company like Tune. The CEO is either a Strategist or not worth paying RM 2 mil a year .
TuneProtect needs to dig deep and realize that it needs to operate like a startup again.
A management ratio of almost 50% is just embarrassing for 9M 2019
And finally just merge the CIO and COO into 1 person. Cut down cost.
As everything needs to run on IT anyways; and besides, both these characters probably sitting around avoiding accountability of making decisions and driving business forward.
Why am I Pretty sure.
Cause else the management expense will NOT be that high! and under them is probably an army of "assistants" that attends meetings with them. And for all you know IT and Operations not working with each other and blaming each other on a daily basis.
So if they can't work together, jusst get rid of them and put in 1 person.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
