As expected, their transaction income dropped but is good to see they still manage to clock in transaction income.
Based on their last quarter rental income of RM5.7 million, and assumed there is no change, that means they sell closed to RM10.4 million of terminals. So this quarter they are selling about 10k terminals. This one is a bit surprising as I thought during MCO there is not much merchants opened. But last quarter they only sell like RM4.3 million, estimated around 4k terminals, so may be is a follow through purchase. But this will help to push up next quarter rental income by another RM100k per month.
The share of Non-controlling interest is so high, most likely is their subsi that do the mobile top up one that is very profitable, during MCO all use mobile phone... looks like a very good buy now.
But surprisingly with such a low profit, their tax expenses is so high. Maybe they are buffering for full year audit impairment.
One very interesting thing that was disclosed in the quarter result, they bought an e-wallet company called Scanpay Sdn Bhd, looks like they are going into e-wallet game, now it make some sense why they buy Wannatalk, use their facial recognition to register user just like how Grab did, move your head, turn left, turn right... and then roll out facial recognition payment through the wallet.
Overall result is acceptable, 2 quarters affected by covid-19, but still manage to do close to last year. If without Covid, i think this year they can achieve RM12mil PAT.
Side note: Looks like GHL chop wannatalk services, logo no longer there. Lol
Long term should be ok. Just wonder if ESim can help to alleviate their cost. Their SIM card is for the EDC by the way. It will be a headache all the time when comes to monthly payment.
If you want to use PE as a metric, you have to take into consideration of the bonus issue of shares effect. They issue a bonus shares in end 2019, so that itself shoot up the PE.
Before bonus issue, their number of shares is about 233.652 million. Using PAT of RM7.511 million, the EPS (before bonus issue) is about 3.2 sen. So based on share price of RM1.25, the PE is about 39x.

Yesterday closing only 700k volume... quite small volume I would say and only few thousands unit push to 1.26, closing 2 sen above. Quite weak leh like that.... seems so little people buy high and not a lot ppl want to buy or sell, seems got something on these few days
Maybe no theme... but everyone still spending money I guess... business (ETP) and online transaction still ok right? But, now I think their business is more complex compared to last year
Anyway, I think this year a bit gone case. Unless the ETP segment suddenly “limit up” with the tourists flocking into the countries and the covid19 gone for good. Let’s look into next year. It will be a long term stock for this. I believe in next year: 1. Change of EDC from PCI3 to PCI5 - increase in revenue for EDC segment 2. Wannatalk revenue start to register into group revenue in October 2020. 3. Should covid19 subside and country start to open border, ETP will increase when tourists come in. 4. Domestic spending, depends on whether ppl still use e-wallet, debit and credit card or not. Nevertheless, EWallet still have some limitation where volume high, but value not high. 5. E-commerce like shopee may start to bring in more value to REVENUE. Hope it goes well and more well next year and coming future
=INTERVIEW: Malaysia Revenue Group Plans Multi-Feature Mobile App To Boost Income-CEO
Malaysia’s Revenue Group plans to launch a mobile chat application and add several features such as payment mechanism to it in phases through the next year as it looks to diversify income base, its chief executive said.
The company will launch the social community chat app WannaTalk by month-end, and will integrate wallet service and retail service in March 2020, Eddie Ng told NewsRise. The target is to have 500,000 WannaTalk users within a year, he said.
“Merchants are facing business challenges due to pandemic,” Ng said. “But if we have a big group of B2C (business-to-consumers) or consumers with us through a single platform, we can help merchants to push their products to the consumers through the single platform.”
Revenue Group mainly derives income from installing and managing electronic data capture, or EDC payment terminals, which accounts for about 60% of its annual revenue. Electronic transaction processing and other services account for the remainder 40%.
Revenue Group aims to deploy 100,000 EDC terminals by its fiscal year ending Jun. 30, as against 80,000 units currently, Ng said.
The company plans to introduce marketplace on Wannatalk in June 2021 and finally provide digital financing services by September, Ng said. Through the new business model, Revenue Group will earn transaction income as well as servicing fee-based income, he said.
“Merchants will pay extra percentage to us for every successful transaction,” he said. “Contribution from the application is immediate.”
The company also plans to acquire an e-hailing company by year-end to further complement its offerings, Ng said. “We are finalizing some terms and conditions and hope to make an announcement latest by year,” he said.
The deal size however is relatively small and it will be funded through the company’s internal cash totaling 27 million ringgit ($6.53 million), Ng added.
Despite delays, the Revenue Group remains keen on expanding to Myanmar and Cambodia to tap into their nascent electronic payment industries, Ng said.
“If we had already invested in it, it will be a very big challenge to us to manage business growth as cost will be in US dollar,” he said. “Now we have built different types of applications during the pandemic, and we just need to replicate the model to other countries.”
Shares of Revenue Group, which have gained about 28.5% over the past year, were unchanged at 1.18 ringgit apiece on Bursa Malaysia.

Good set of top line numbers. Need more work on Bottom line. No doubt this is a gem to keep for long terms.
