NIISE was mentioned in The Edge today, and DNeX was not even mentioned as a contender.

Just a few months ago, executive chairman was telling The Edge that they bid for the NIISE project.

This is an example of over promise under deliver.

It is clear that the management lacks ability in execution. With so many over promises such as MOU and news publications, the only contract wins are the mediocre contracts in a few millions.

Excellent management focus on execution and talk less.

Management that talks a lot but no execution, this kind of management is highly ineffective and incompetent

The weak management needs to be removed in its entirety, and shareholders should exercise their rights to lodge complaint and vote out the following:
1. Audit Committee Chairman - Publicly stated in her Facebook that she does nothing but smile and wave at AGM. In addition, she also stated that she pretend to be serious during her presence in the AGM.

At the same time, all shareholders that attended the AGM were suffering from value loss from share price, while this director is joking around.

2. Executive chairman - Talks too much but poor track record on execution.

Empty promises:
- Mentioned in The Edge post that Silterra CGP issue will have closure in Q1, but no updates to date
- Signs multiple MOU but no concrete revenue generating execution. While other companies are already making deals with Nvidia, the company is further left behind. Due to fear of shame and big ego, the shareholders and employees are the victims as the potential is not fully realized due to the incompetency of a few.
- Lack of focus. Shareholders pays for his salary but he spends time sharing endless Middle East issues every minute on his Instagram during work hours. While his focus should be improving share price

3. Director of oil and gas division - Needs to be removed as speculation of taking the oil and gas arm private came out as news on The Edge, but few days later, this director resigned but still part of management team. This type of leadership is absolutely shameful.

4. Director with minimal experience and had no face to his name in the company’s website. Never appeared at AGM and his contributions to the company has not been made known to shareholders

The following matters are likely to happen in Q1:
1. Share price remains at depressed level, unless current weak management is removed in its entirety and replaced with quality competent individuals in technology and semiconductor industry.
2. Announce extremely poor results, and continue to blame it on macro environment and every other thing, except for their own incompetencies
3. No takers for private placement to dilute shareholders for sunset oil and gas industry. Despite being able to price the private placement at a significant discount and dilute minority shareholders, the private placement is likely delayed as no investors believe in investing in sunset industry + current weak management team

The following matters will not materialize in Q1:

2. Share price rebound to fair level. This will not happen given that the main reason for the price overhang will still not be resolved. Reason is existence of the current weak management team.
3. Board member that eat, do nothing, smile and wave at AGM, continue to do so instead of focusing on key audit and accounting matters and provide valuable advise.

The way minority shareholders are treated is a real act of penindasan by the management

Management continue to enjoy high salary despite their multiple bloopers that caused the livelihood of shareholders to suffer and leave employees in state of uncertainty.

Yet, they have the decency to claim that it’s just a disagreement between shareholders, and does not affect the business.

This type of penindasan mentality by the management is highly shameful.

All these while the management spends more time relating to penindasan in the Middle East, instead of the penindasan of their own shareholders

Downgrade to TP of $0.00

Based on Equity Value of $1.50, less existing management’s value destruction and ignorance value of -$1.50.

While company has many valuable revenue generating assets, the key issue that plagued the company is the management’s tremendous ability to be ignorant and live in their own world, ignoring returns to shareholders and accountability as stewards of a listed company.

Unless the existing management is removed in its entirety, the stock continues to be fair value at zero.

Appendix to #1:

Executive Chairman via his social media app Instagram (syedzainalsmt) persistently stories on Israel-Palestine conflict, including graphic images and videos. While the situation in Middle East is unfortunate and we sympathise equally, posting persistent stories during working hours gives the perception that he does not prioritise his duties in DNeX, as proven by dwindling profits and massive drop in share price.

Most executive directors of listed companies treats their companies as their life blood. It has become visibly clear that executive chairman of the company does not prioritise the company as his first priority.

This situation is unfortunate as the company is blessed with valuable assets from shareholders funds, but managed by executives that lacks priorities and focus

Downgrade to underperform

Owning to management’s lack of focus, we believe DNeX’s true value cannot be realised if the current management team stays at helm.

#1 While we sympathise with the war situation over the Israel-Palestine conflict, we see that Executive Chairmain, Syed Zainal Tahir’s consistent sharing of stories (including graphic images) on a social media platform may result in shareholders perceiving him to be more focused on his personal agenda than crucial matters at DNeX.

#2 Current management team is not able to fully realise value of all assets. Its crown jewel SilTerra, while possessing a large pool of talent, may not be guided in the right direction due to lack of focus by the management

#3 Management ignores real matters such as execution excellence, appears to dwell in trivial matters that do not add value.

DNeX has fallen further by 20% since our last downgrade, which citied management’s lack of competency to execute.

As an update based on channel checks, we believe that management’s divided attention to several segments and further diversification into non-core business such as Ping Petroleum and unproven software IT solutions to be a move that lacks foresight.

Based on our view, the only way for DNeX’s share price to improve leap and bounds is a combination of:
1. Foxconn buyout of management
2. Full Divestment of Ping
3. Focus on Silterra
4. Cut loss on non profitable IT projects

Overall, inventory correction is expected to hit in 1H23, but a huge upswing in demand from 2H23 and 2024 is expected due to a mismatch in inventories by customers.

At current valuation, investors are basically pricing in Silterra to be worth zero to DNeX, which is an impossible scenario.

Let's assess what are the outcomes of the arbitration, and its impact to DNeX:



If arbitration favours DNeX:

If the arbitration favours DNeX, DNeX would retain 60% direct interest in Silterra, and CGP would retain 40%.

Next question would be would CGP sell out?

If CGP sells out - Other chip majors such as Foxconn (already have a direct interest in DNeX and working to build a 12 inch fab with DNeX) would highly likely acquire this 40% stake. This would further leverage DNeX's postion in the EV industry and boost Silterra's value

If CGP does not sell out - then Business As Usual.



If arbitration favours CGP:

DNeX will be left with 40% stake in Silterra.

Let's say DNeX sells out its 40% stake, this would equal to a potential proceed of RM2.4bil to DNeX, being equity value of RM6bil x 40% = RM2.4bil.

RM2.4bil, would be RM0.76 per share, being RM2.4bil / 3.16bil shares (Just for Silterra portion, not including DNeX's other business that are worth around RM0.47 per share, taking a brokerage house's estimates)



In no scenario would DNeX value just be RM0.55 (pricing in 0 value from Silterra), as the worst case would be DNeX owning 40%, instead of 0%.

- Company not affected by minimum wage as all employees earning above RM1,500 per month
- In view of good corporate governance, Chairman Tan Sri Mamat not seeking re-election as he had served 9 years (close to 10 years requirement for good corporate governance).

Overall:
Company in very good position for 2023 due to increase ASP from LTA and high margin from remaining 30% capacity.
Ping Petroleum riser has been fixed and capacity will improve back to 100%.
IT revenue on track and diversification beyond NSW bearing fruit

Verdict:
As seen in growing institutional participation in Dnex's shareholding, Dnex is poised to be a MEMS and Silicon Photonics champion in semiconductor in South East Asia, temporary setback from arbitration not expected to have major impact as relationship is still cordial between both parties, and just want to sort out the facts legally.

DNeX's 2 large cash generating engines - SilTerra and Ping is widely expected to double it's profits in FY23.

Overall

SilTerra:

Secured agreement to supply wafers to World's Number 1 Low Energy Bluetooth company - Nordic Semiconductor ~ Cash upfront is 1.4x of current 8 inch wafer prices due to shortage of such specialty design.

Secured agreement to supply MEMS wafers to Number 1 Semiconductor company in the Middle East ~ Pearl Semiconductor ~ Cash upfront 3x of current 8 inch wafer prices due to 1st in the world design of such MEMS specialty design.

Cash upfront deposit of 40% from existing LTA covering 60% of existing capacity + re-opening of China economy spurring demand for Driver IC's

Ping Petroleum:

Completion of repair of a key component of Anasuria Cluster to boost productivity by 50%, resulting in Ping profit to potentially double provided oil is at current prices ~US$80-90/bbl.



Surprises

Much to our surprise, SilTerra is moving up the global SIlicon Photonics and MEMS value chain at a rapid pace, due to its early investments in such technology and collaboration with global semiconductor R&D giant iMEC.

As global chip company scramble due to high inventory levels for conventional PC chips, SilTerra is insulated from such oversupply due to its superior inbuilt technology to supply these next generation chips that are expected to be mass adopted beginning from the end of FY23.



Expectations

EPF accumulated a stake of up to 3.8% based on latest Annual Report filed ~ While this was widely expected by us, it is still a very positive news given large local ongoing institutional support.

Foreign institutional funds begin to upstake DNeX due to their better understanding of the widely positive financial impact from mass adoption of MEMS and Silicon Photonics by global conglomerates, especially in the use of low powered / battery enhancement products.

We view the recent sell off of Dagang Nexchange ("DNeX") share unwarranted, given the ability of its 5 year LTA with China and Taiwan Display Driver IC fabless companies Chipone Technology and Ilitek to cushion the impact of any potential decline in IC demand.

Note that the LTA makes up of 70% of SilTerra's current wafer capacity and guarantees a load or pay, thus SilTerra will benefit regardless of whether the economy falls into a recession in the 1H23.

Separately, Nordic Semiconductor (key Bluetooth supplier of tech giant A), the world's leading Bluetooth wireless IC drive has locked SilTerra's loading for next 1H23 (In line with the expansion of SilTerra's 20% additional capacity).

While shares in global chip giants falter, SilTerra remains in a good position by virtue of it being the a handful of 200mm fab in the world having the capabilities to fabricate Silicon Photonics and MEMS IC (with various patents) having invested years in R&D with IMEC.

ASP for 200mm remains elevated due to shortage for automobile and data centre IC chips, two areas of focus for SilTerra's near future loading.

As for Ping Petroleum, oil prices remains elevated and undersupplied, despite prices falling from US$100 highs, Ping Petroleum's average actual cost per barrel is only US$25/bbl. At current prices of US$87/bbl, Ping is still able to make significant profits.

Under the guidanceship of Tan Sri Syed Zainal Abidin Tahir, DNeX is able to weather the potential economic downturn and continue to record profits due to the LTA.

We believe that the market has underappreciated the positive impact of the LTA signed by DNeX and will be positively surprised when DNeX's quarter earnings is announced.

With DNeX poisted to announce Q2FY22 by middle to end of Febuary, it is projected to announce higher earnings due to:

i. Increase in SilTerra's ASP of Wafer per Mask Layer by 25% since Q2 FY21 and Wafer Fabout performance due to significantly lesser wastage

ii. Increase in crude oils lifting offtake value of Ping Petroleum
