and Westport expansion plan..

quarter result too slow~ need more contracts to boost up the share price faster !!

first 6 months tak dapat contract~ mean next 6 months higher chance lo..

BUY~ xD

The only uncertain is the construction segment.. now depends u wanna trust the management or not le.. haha.

Any contract during this period is the bonus ! So far this year no get any right?

But management mentioned tender book now 3bil; successful rate medium to high~

Crane - should improve q-q as previous quarter used to be weakest quarter.

Airport - should similar like Q1 even though not peak travel season but mitigate with few new routes during this quarter.

Im no sure boss collect or not la. They dont sell then im happy enough.. lol

But upcoming quarter result should good~

Previously im concern on construction segment.. but after AGM, management said ongoing 6 projects also profitable. Let’s see.

Cambodia records over 2.5 mln air passengers in first 5 months: minister

But the figure include SiemReap airport~
https://www.khmertimeskh.com/501507812/cambodia-records-over-2-5-mln-air-passengers-in-first-5-months-minister/

number of passengers got to wait July report. I only have the record for number of flights departures everyday.

So far the numbers of flights for Q2 are slightly higher compare the Q1.

**The siemp reap's number alrdy taken out for calculation.

die die must link it to DATA CENTER .. xD

Tender book.
Not order book

sarawak built data center kah ? ahha~

rubber price hit new high since 2021.
with the current high inventory, should look positive.

Im more interesting with the ship building/repair segment.. but Petronas Safina phase 2 seem like will only begin in Q3.

Refer SYGROUP report, their ship building/repairing business alrdy show much improvement for past 3 quarter:

1.8m >> 3.5m >> 9.6m profit

Below the figure i want..lol..
but it is highest profit since MCO.

Very hard for me to interpret the result, especially the non controlling interest part.. quite confuse. But construction segment seem like no drag the overall result this round.

Let’s put hope for the Q2:

Concession - contribution should remain similar like Q1; not travel season but mitigate by resume some routes

Construction + Crane : should record higher contribution than Q1 (cny+puasa)

Favco result yesterday was so so only.. but it is ok.. it used to be weak in Q1.

Airport business used to peak in Q1 during travel season. Hopefully can show power this time.

But most important is the construction segment~ jgn drag the group again.

Any reversal impairment + shipping segment might be bonus for Muhibah

Airport passengers in Apr +12% compare last year. Actual figure will only announce by quarter (next in July).

It is Hard to calculate the monthly figure now after exclude SiemReap airport.

sales to U.S might increase~ but other regions sales might takeover by China gloves.

lanpa vs palan.. apa different ?

bear in mind~ the tariff is imposed by U.S only. and they used to get special waiver case by case

anak dah new high in 2 years~ kasi tumpang power break above 1

But profit margin should reduce accordingly !!

-Revenue gradual recover~
