OMH has been super lagged and can easily drop 30% with small volume. The share price is now lower than 10 years ago. What has the shareholders benefited? Shareholders value is being eroded constantly.
What I am saying is a balance approach to expansion, taking care of shareholder values (through div, share buyback, active investor relation to bring higher PE and share price), rather than one sided approached to managing a public listed company. And it is true that Chairman incentive payout is geared towards profitability, but that has not translated into increasing shareholder values.

If Omh can achieve the a fraction of Pmetal market valuation, then I agree with you that there is no need for share buyback, just continue expansion.

Should not spend money on share buy back. Should expand more and more furnaces at this time to enhance long term profit growth.

I attended AGM 2 years ago. I trust the management is smarter than me to manage their business for few decades.

If you want to know why some companies valuation is so high vs it’s peers, despite being in quite similar business segment, look no further at OMH mgt vs the high performing mgt of PMetal and Lynas. In this case, key founders/mgt attitude towards increasing collective shareholders value (or individual shareholder value) is crucial. This is the case of either the key decision holder is incapable or unwilling to advance collective shareholder value.

Posted by Damien88 > 2021-11-25 09:16 | Report Abuse

Key management/founders that is so disinterested in advancing shareholder values can never become the likes of PMetal and Lynas that many investors/shareholders look up to. This can only fall into the category of “could have been” as OMH is still operating very much with private SME mindset.

When market goes up, this stock doesn’t move. When the market comes down 4-5%, this stock drop 40%! You just have to compare with PMetal. WhenPMetal moves, this stock stays, but when PMetl dropped only 10-15%, OMH drop 30-40%! With no liquidity

As long as key management/shareholder does not priority shareholder values for all, this is what happen and like I said, it’s a “could have been stock”! What a pity when you have management who is unwilling or incapable to run a listed company with shareholder interest at its core

The potential upside should be RM4, that’s 40% upside as OMH will be announcing good sets of results for 2H2021 given the high alloy prices that they achieved in 4Q2021

At current prices, it only creates potential takeover opportunities for hungry growth companies at cheap prices. Even at 50-75% premium, OMH valuation is still cheap

FeSi prices in Europe is still very high at EUR 2,900 / ton (US$3,300/ton). OMH cost of production is only US$1,000/ton. That’s GPM of US$2,000/ton or 200%!

What this stock lacks is a good IR/PR effort which can be easily achieved if the management decides to put in some effort

Posted by Damien88 > 2021-12-23 10:21 | Report Abuse

The current depressed only serves to attract hostile bidders who can see a value in omh. Esp when aggressive hedge fund moves in to scoop up this stock and change the management. Just by putting in place whole IR/PR machinery, the hostile party will easily make billions out of this stock and move its valuation to the likes of PMetal/Lynas. Since the founding shareholders only hold 18%, a hostile bidding will add fuel to the lagging share price.

Downside risk at current price is really limited now, but huge upside potential. Esp so when a hostile bidder jumps in

The interest has waned. I think will go sideway for a period of time. This stock is related to steel production. With low price of steel, OMH will not be having major increase of price.

The edge markets 27 Dec:
- FeSi hit unprecedented high of US$4,150 end Sep
- FeSi now trades US$2,000-3,000 range. Remember OMH cost is below US$1,000. Still sees GPM > 100%-150%
- New norm pricing due to increased cost of smelting in China, due to changes in power costs and new rules/regulations
- Should support OMH fundamental

Posted by Damien88 > 2021-12-29 10:36 | Report Abuse

The last recorded historical high was US$1,500-1800 back between 2017-2018.

Smart investors always buy when the stock has corrected 30-40%, while the fundamental is unchanged. For OMH case, the fundamental is in fact stronger as the alloy prices is still high by all standards with GPM > 100% -150%

Ferrosilicon and SiliconManganese are highly power intensive materials, much like aluminum. The price surge for these materials should be sustainable and the prices will be higher vs recent years. As the world focus on decarbonization, energy and power prices should be sustainably higher going forward due to underinvestment in fossil fuels whilst renewables are still playing catch up. Power intensive materials are akin to liquefied form of energy should see soaring prices. OMH and Press Metal which have locked in power purchase agreement for 20 years on the back of very low prices back then should benefit.

Yes, I agree fully with you. OMH could easily achieve A$100m (Rm300m) profit on current production level and current alloy prices. Yet the market cap is only A$650m / RM 2.1b. PE only 6x, way below market
