B4. VARIANCE FROM PROFIT FORECAST

(The rest of the page has been intentionally left blank)

The reported quarter total HDD storage market showed a 3% increase Quarter on Quarter (QoQ)

in units shipped and 22% QoQ total Storage Capacity shipped, increasing to 262 Exabytes(EB). This

is the 2nd straight quarter that the industry is seeing unit HDD shipment increase. The industry

has also reported that inventory levels in the supply chain are back to normal levels. Based on

current market trends and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Group expects the

performance of the second half year to be better than the first half. The group is projecting that

our factory capacity utilisation rate will increase as our customers improve their units shipped.

performance of the second half year to be better than the first half.

WHY SHOULD 2ND HALF BE BETTER THAN FIRST HALF?

The reported quarter total HDD storage market showed a 3% increase Quarter on Quarter (QoQ)

in units shipped and 22% QoQ total Storage Capacity shipped, increasing to 262 Exabytes(EB). This

is the 2nd straight quarter that the industry is seeing unit HDD shipment increase. 

a 3% increase Quarter on Quarter (QoQ)

in units shipped 

and 22% QoQ total Storage Capacity shipped, increasing to 262 Exabytes(EB)

In other words only 3% increase in Sales Delivery

But Value jumped by 22% or Profit up by 22%

That means 22/3 = 7.33 X or  733% JUMP IN PROFITS!

a) Revenue increasing driven by increasing demand for storage products, both Hard Disk Drives

(HDD) and Solid State Drives (SSD). Our customers have started seeing some recovery in HDD

demand and that is translating to more demand for the Groups offerings. We are seeing this

sustained increasing factory capacity utilisation throughout the whole quarter.

Above JCY Stated it got both HDD (Hard Disk Drive) & SSD (Solid State Drive)

This result is even more

significant given that the Group’s capacity utilisation is still less than 50% in the reported quarter.

Even with less than 50% capacity utilisation in the reported qtr it produced this SIGNIFICANT RESULT

HOW MUCH MORE PROFITS WILL SECOND QTR BE WHEN JCY RAMP UP PRODUCTION

Now See Prices of HDD are Up by 20%!

AI boom is boosting demand even for HDDs, raising prices by up to 20% since Q3

No computer part, even spinning rust, is safe from the hype cycle

Matthew Connatser

Hard drives are now being sold at elevated prices and the sector is even experiencing shortages thanks to AI-driven demand, which has similarly boosted prices for SSDs and GPUs.

At least one hard drive manufacturer, Western Digital, has expressed its intentions to raise hard drive prices per a letter shared by TrendForce. The letter, penned by channel SVP Scott Davis on April 8, says: "Western Digital is seeing higher than expected demand across its entire flash and hard drive portfolio resulting in supply constraints."

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH HDD TO MEET DEMAND AND SO PRICES ARE GOING UP

Now See NOTION

Reference is made to the unusual market activity query dated 18 June 2024 in respect of the sharp rise in the price of Notion VTec’s securities recently (“trading activity”) (collectively “UMA Query”).

After having made due enquiries with the Directors, major shareholders and such other relevant persons, and to the best knowledge and belief, the Board of Directors of the Company wishes to provide the following replies to the queries in the same orders as the UMA Query:

i) Strong Financial Performance Recovery

Notion VTec has reported positive returns in first and second quarters of financial year 2024 (“FY2024”). Our financial results have shown consistent improvement, demonstrating our resilience and effective strategic initiatives. Investors, both retail and institutional, have responded positively to our performance, reflecting their confidence in our ongoing business prospects.

Notion said both retail & institutional investors have responded positively to Notion's performance

In other words FUNDS are now in NOTION

ii) Industry Turnaround​

In line with technology stocks growth on the NASDAQ stock market, Notion VTec being a technology stock has benefitted from a notable turnaround of the Hard Disk Drive (HDD) and Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) sectors. Furthermore, in the Automotive sector, Notion VTec may benefit from the trade tension between China and the West with the recent increase in import tariffs of aluminum and steel products exported from China to the United States of America with the possibility of major customers reallocating more orders in the coming quarters.

In other words turnaround or CYCLICAL RETURN OF DEMAND FOR HDD HAS RETURNED

NOTION QUALIFIES AS A TURNAROUND IN PETER LYNCH'S 6 CATEGORY OF STOCKS

This increase in sales was highlighted in the commentaries of unaudited quarterly financial report for the second quarter of FY2024 where we mentioned that the second half of FY2024 may outpace the first half of FY2024.

​

Now take note very very very carefully

 the second quarter of FY2024 where we mentioned that the second half of FY2024 may outpace the first half of FY2024.

IN BOLD

THE SECOND QUARTER OF FY2024 WHERE WE MENTIONED THAT THE SECOND HALF OF FY2024 MAY OUTPACE THE FIRST HALF OF FY2024

READ ONE MORE TIME

 THE SECOND HALF OF FY2024 MAY OUTPACE THE FIRST HALF OF FY2024

OUTPACE MEANING

SINCE JCY, NOTION AND DUFU HAVE ALL STATED THEIR VERY POSITIVE STANCE REGARDING HDD

WE EXPECT THEIR PRICES TO GO UP

HOW HIGH THEY WILL REACH YET TO BE SEEN

ONLY WAY TO KNOW IS TO BUY AND HOLD ALL THROUGH THE 2ND HALF OF 2024 IRRESPECTIVE OF WHAT OTHERS OR  ALL OTHERS NAYSAYERS OR DOUBTERS SAY

THANK YOU
