Before placing your bets, would you calculate your risks first?
Hevea's hidden risks:
1. RTA segment is its core revenue contributor but it relies upon two (2) major customers heavily to generate its profits. It has the similar risk like Focus Lumber -- customer concentration risk.
2. Raw material risk
3. Labour supply risk (It's labour intensive)
4. Forex risk
p/s: It's too much uncertainties that being an investor cannot easily handle it. After understanding the above risks, are you still interested on it?
Valuation wise, its calculated price would be ranging between:
1. 0.26 (PE 10.50) to
2. 0.71 (PE 28.50).
How about the industry PE? 16.39 PE.

The question here: Mestron just raised RM 25.28 million on 18th June 2019, but on 1st August 2019, they proposed to dispose of two (2) one-half storey linked factories -- Isn't it strange that within very short period, Mestron required the working capital again after listing of forty five (45) days?

As at 31 March 2018, the Maxincome Resources Sdn. Bhd.'s (383322-D) accounting data extracted from the CTOS, it shows a net loss of RM 7,111,561 instead of a net profit of RM 7.11 million -- It couldn't have a net margin of 9.4% and also the QL management said that Family Mart business still had not been yet breaking even, how could it make profit as at 31 March 2018?
I think you have to verify the source that you took from.
Anyone who is interested to have the set of FM accounting data, kindly let me know I share with you.

DualShock,
From what I know about the furniture and particleboard:
Φ Rubberwood-based manufacturers
1. Liihen
2. Latitude
3. Pohuat
Φ Particleboard manufacturers
1. Hevea
2. Evergreen Fibreboard
3. Meico Chipboard
4. SYF Resources
Hevea's raw materials are made up of the rubberwood's residues.
My doubt was those peers didn't raise the poor result caused by the shortage of raw materials (rubberwood's residues) due to *wet weather*, whereas the unrelated manufacturer, Liihen still able to chalk up a good result without facing the shortage of raw materials (rubberwood) -- I think my expression were not clear cut enough, hoping that you could catch what I tried to connect.

Extract from the latest financial result Q1 31 Mar 2019:
Particleboard Manufacturing Sector
The revenue and profit before tax reported for this period decreased by RM19.24 million or 41.47%
and RM6.25 million or 156.30% respectively as compared to the same period last year. The lower
revenue and loss before tax were mainly due to [1] lower sales and production volumes as a result of major shut down for preventive maintenance of over 3 weeks, the preventive maintenance also
incurred additional cost. In addition, [2] shortage of raw materials due to the wet weather had also
resulted in lower production output, thus accounting for a higher average cost of production during
the period as economy of scale could not be attained.
Could someone who will attend the AGM to ask the below questions:
[1] How come will have a major shutdown for preventive maintenance? Will the peers conduct the same manner or Hevea has to take lesson on this by referring to the peers' manner as to the preventive maintenance?
[2] Shortage of raw materials due to the wet weather -- Will this a real fact behind the poor financial performance? By referring to the peers, i.e. Evergreen and Mieco they didn't provide such reasons as to their poor financial performance. If not forgotten, Hevea's particleboard is manufactured from the rubberwood residues -- just wonder Hevea management did tell the fact behind the poor financial performance as the same quarter that Lii Hen who is manufacturing rubberwood-based furniture, it chalked up a good financial result and not facing any shortage of raw materials.
Or anyone here equip with the related industry/business knowledge that can enlighten me the above two questions that I asked.

Financial performance review:
As of 3rd quarterly result 2014, HOMERIZ has achieved 98% (17.6 million) of FYE13 net profits (17.9 million) on the back of 83.% (93.9 million) of FYE13 revenue (112.9 million).
From this, HOMERIZ is most likely able to overtake the revenue of FYE13 as they just have to meet another 19 million to break even with the revenue of FYE13. The extra is an additional bonus for the shareholders.
To me, HOMERIZ might be lack of the growth drivers to stimulate its revenue and its revenue would be highly correlated with the the fluctuation of US Dollar.
Let's see how the management copes with the facing risks, so as to spur growth.

Financial performance review:
19-07-2014
As of 4th quarterly result 2014, TAS has achieved 213% (28.8 million) of FYE13 net profits (13.5 million) on the back of 184% (254.3 million) of FYE13 revenue (137.9 million).
Against the preceding quarter, it recorded lower revenue of RM61.3 million representing a decrease of RM53.0 million or 46% below.
Commentaries:
Due to the lower revenue against the preceding quarter, it has plunged to RM1.46 (with a gap down) from the day before, at RM1.59 or a plunge of 8.18%. Did the investors react rationally?
However, the overall performance is still maintained ideally. Although its gross margin dropped to 13.8%, a decrease of 3.2 ppts from 17%, its net margin inched up to 11.3%, an increase of 1.5 ppts from 9.8% against the preceding financial year. Additionally, its ROE has increased to 16.5% from 8.8% as at FYE13. It signals that TAS has raised a huge short-term loan of RM35.8 million to fund its business activity. However, this is still acceptable because of its business nature.
Taking cue from the balance sheet, with an amount due from contract customers of RM106.4 million and a spike of 72% in inventories against the preceding financial year, I believe that TAS still has a healthy order book so as to sustain its business. However, its coming result will be impacted by minor slowdowns in business activity during the festive seasons at the beginning and end of each calendar year.
Let's stay tuned.

Every ratio's formula, you need to keep in mind and do not try to go shortcut because that if you're unable to master the ratios properly then you will interpret wrongly as the ratios could be manipulated easily. If you directly plug from those websites provided, then how can you 'feel' the overall company's operations?
I've emailed to you, please check it out.
2014-06-26 18:12 | Report Abuse
Intelligent Investor, I interpreted your message wrongly. Yup 2009's ROE one was damn high due to the component of the leverage (from DuPont analysis).
It's good to use DuPont ROE to find the culprit as you mentioned.
For your information, basically 1st year of listing those ratios are weird if you notice on it.
Anyway, I see you share a lot of your hardwork through i3 if possible, we can exchange knowledge and information to stick with the principles of being a fundamentalist.

"HOMERITZ ROE and ROCE is 60% and 51% respectively and this is a very high number. Do check why it drop to 42.85 and 31.98 on year 2010 and further drop to 21.85 and 16.46 on year 2013. Do a DuPont analysis to check out where the number come from. And, check out who is the culprit."
Good point! Previously, its ROE was so high as it was highly geared.
screwdriver, first of all you gotta define what kinda businesses that both companies run. Hevea is involved in wood-related furniture products but Homeritz is primarily engaged in upholstered furniture products and mainly in the export market. They're actually different business models, although they're in the same industry/sector. So better don't compare it like this.
As for the manufacturing business, you've to keep an eye on the cash conversion cycle (DIO + DSO - DPO), CAPEX, staff costs, gearing and margins.
Give me your email, I send you a book to learn financial ratios. You must make sure that you gotta finish reading up it and directly apply.
Note: NOSH = Number of shareholding, in case that you do not understand Intelligent Investor's word.
