In a defeat that was all but inevitable, Senate Democrats failed to advance legislation intended to protect abortion access nationwide even if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade.

The technicals on Karex have been interesting for about a month but I've never been brave enough to do anything about it and buy any. Now today it's up over 13% on 10 million volume.....grrrrrrrr.

Any rumours?

Posted by wallstreetrookie > 2022-11-07 20:40 | Report Abuse

US banned abortion, this means global condom sales went up significantly = $$$ for Karex

Highly illegal activity going on. I saw a post on Facebook, someone bought Karex when it spiked and promoting the stock in a private Telegram group

I was thinking last night about what plans Karex could be coming up with to nove the price up, as we have seen recently. The obvious one that came to mind was to increase the price of condoms they manufacture for the major companies like Durex, although they haven't done that during the rising input prices over the last 2 years.

The other option was something they suggested about a year or so ago, where they start producing and marketing their own brand of condoms for the global market.

Apart from that, I've got nothing..........unless it's merely what they mentioned a few weeks ago about their Thailand glove manufacturing plant getting closer to coming online.

I missed the boat, so I'll sit this one out for now.

Historical high revenue, release the quarterly result early

Posted by wallstreetrookie > 2022-11-08 11:21 | Report Abuse

I think Karex will report the highest ever profits because millions of Americans can no longer opt for abortion. Contraception pills are not safe. Therefore, Karex, being the largest condom maker in the world, will be the world's largest benefactor.

I am extremely bullish. My price target is actually RM0.80. Not kidding

You think Karex will deliver "the highest ever profits" in the upcoming quarterly?

You're dreaming, wsr.

They are struggling to even turn a profit, as input costs have risen so much over the past 2 years. There might be an eventual recovery for them but to say they will be delivering highest ever profits is way over the top.
Let's see what they can deliver over the next 3, 6 and 12 months to see if they are able to get out of this loss making position.

Posted by wallstreetrookie > 2022-11-08 13:09 | Report Abuse

Well, you are just looking at the 1-day price action. Karex will hit RM0.80 in no time

Yes, I expect highest ever profits within the next 6 months, barring labour shortage issues. Malaysia is bringing in a lot of foreign workers. Labour issues will be resolved soon, input costs will come down significantly. So I am fairly optimistic

Karex management literally told us that the company expects to see condom demand surpassing pre-pandemic levels. You go and meet the CEO and ask him yourself. He will tell you that condom sales are absolutely flying right now after the Roe v Wade US Supreme Court decision. Not to mention the fact that countries all over the world are pushing greater awareness towards sexual education. Condom sales is expected to grow at more than 7% CAGR

Posted by wallstreetrookie > 2022-11-08 13:20 | Report Abuse

Mordor Intelligence:
1. Condom market is poised to grow at CAGR of 8.2% by 2027.

2. 1 in every 5 condoms is produced by Karex Berhad. Competitors including Reckitt and Humanwell are not gaining much market share after long period of consolidation.

3. The rise in the adoption rates of contraceptive products among consumers across the world is boosting the demand for condoms. Moreover, growing awareness through government initiatives, along with comprehensive sex education programs to reduce the prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases, is driving the market growth across the world.
Apart from sex education and prevention against STDs, the introduction of innovative condom designs, coupled with innovative packaging style, increased marketing, and promotional activities, are some of the major factors boosting the market growth further.

With respect, "returning to the black in FY 2023" is not what you suggested when you stated that it was about to deliver it's highest ever profits in the quarterly.

I actually hope it can start delivering profits, as it baffles me how a company that has the highest sales by volume globally can't turn a profit for their products.

wsr, you stated....."Karex will report highest ever profits within 6 months".

OK, let's run with that thought. You are expecting by the end of Q2 2023 that Karex will report a quarterly profit in excess of Rm22 million?

I will follow your statement and recommendation closely to see how it pans out.

Personally, I think you are dreaming, however I wish you well.

Perhaps Karex have a new marketing strategy that we are unaware of yet.

Instead of wasting their time manufacturing the strawberry, peach and orange flavoured condoms, they may have changed strategy and are about to launch a Bah Kuh Teh flavour for the mainland Chinese market and a chicken curry flavour for India.

That might work :)

Have a good day.
