can you share the impairment is from consolidated fixed assets?
how you know that?
as in quarter report, it is not mention whether the impairment RM11 million is from the newly acquire business or from the current old fixed assets.
as you mention they acquire Sandz then after acquire then do impairment, so its fishy as management make bad invetsment decision and pay more to acquire the business and later do impairment which is not fair to minority shareholders
but in quarter report i cannot find anything have mentioned that impairment is from the assets of new business
hahaha .... today will green .... because the opening price is 0.57 due to panic selling. u can just look back what happen to lctitan and misc after reported bad result
Hey, anyone have any idea why, despite the revenue of RM51.969m for Q12020 its PBT is only RM525,000 which is A LOT lower relatively to the previous quarters? For example PBT for Q12019 was RM4.015m when revenue of was only RM32.5m. Maybe I've missed something, but can't seem to figure it out based on the QR report.
haiyo ..... the price drop from 0.93 to 0.3 in march 2020. There was no result announced that time. why the price dropped so much? or that big drop already expected amd priced in this quarter and next quarter will be bad?
@blossoms88...businesses uncertainties abound...That's margins compressed...then probably projects delayed or deferred...then this assets impairments lost...will take quite a long n painful days...That's even some great investors in US...just can't figure out the risks n rewards ratios...they standby huge cash flows...n even sold their portfolios...don't go against market directions too much...if you don't understand...just stay on shore...!!!
The impairment of assets is due to accounting standard of MFRS139. How they compute asset carrying value is by discounting future cashflows of the business unit or assets to present value. Obviously the IRR used as discount rate will be lower due to the current Covid environment, hence which is why the accountants/auditors call it "out of prudence" because this impairment is purely non-cash and based on mathematical formula.
This provision is an impairment and not a write off, hence when things goes back to normal, it will be reversed and added back to income.
@dawchok, I see you don't understand tech business. Did you know technologies everyday changing? Did you know supplier from intel also making this kind of lost when a few year back, if you notice Intel processor keep coming out new chip in a very short period of time and making alot of tiny chip company to die. After this, Intel slow down the progress to keep upgrade their intel processor.
Why tiny chip company die is because today i buy this machine able to support intel chip, but suddenly intel change it processor architecture and making the machine become useless or less profitable.
If you know this, you wont comment like below.

If you work in great good companies such Intel, Agilent, you would be fired for making wrong biz decision causing company RM11 million impairment. This RM11 million impairment in Krono tells a lots such as insufficient management and poor integrity. I lost my faith in Krono.
readjust profit still high PE. Operating cashflow still low, gp margin decreasing. Good industry but seems like management cant do a good job to capitalise, even revenue growth has been on a decreasing trend QoQ. Until management can give a clear view, I shall stay far.
I already told ... dont panic sell this morning. Now everyone panic buying , result only reflect the past. And the past already over. Investors is looking for the future. Sigh....
I think the company has projected the estimation loss of earnings for year 2020 into the impairment on PPE. Go and look around all the other industry like airlines, entertainment, industrial and bet if they have guts to do the same impairment of not lol
Krono : 43 Million People selling Krono... Krono drop till 0.535. The issue of Krono Impairment loss, is a big effect on Krono share price..
Foresee ... the next few days, Krono will be dropping more. Why ? A lot of investors, today, are maintaining a wait and see attitude on Krono.. But then, after a few more days, there will not be any wait and see attitude, but straight away cut loss..
Why hold on to something that is dropping and why not use that money to buy some thing else like Armada ? Comfort ? Ekovest ? where you could get back your hard earn money.
