Deep pocketed shark can press the share price by putting blockage. Haha

But the dynamic will change when its market capitalization breach RM 1 billion in 2-3 years time. During that time, the share base has expanded, which allow funds to take part in the shareholdings. Currently the shareholders are mainly individuals, based on annual report.

Comfort will add another 8 production lines this year in addition of 24 that they currently have. Based on annual report, they have another 4 hectares of adjacent land, which provide enough space for expansion. Their current factory is only taking up a portion of 2.45 hectares.

The current shareholder and management has done a good job of turning around the company and now preparing for growth. Glove manufacturing is a volume game. If they do not expand, they would be stagnant like Rubberex. But if they expand too fast, pile of borrowings would burden them, just like Careplus. I expect them to offer right issue with warrant, for expansion, which I am not hesitate to take up.

If you ask my opinion, Union suites would be doing well because of its strategic location. Easily accessible by KESAS, and few other highways, it is also surrounded by universities and colleges. Believe that it would be a preferred locations for students to rent especially for the smaller sizes. Would be appealing for investors instead of owner-occupiers. Don't worry la, it would sell like hot cakes.

not a bad result eventhough I'm expecting more than RM10 million net profit. The current EPS is 4.62cent, which should be higher if not for the losses due to fire at their factory in Q1 FY16.

PE is 15.5%, which is on the low side considering that they achieved same margin with Topglove & Kossan. Here is the breakdown of glove manufacturers PER and their margin percentage.

[Market Cap, PER, Margin, ROE]
Hartalega [RM7.965b, 31.2x, 15.00%, 24%annualized]
Topglove [RM6.278b, 28.7x, 9.77%, 16% annualized]
Kossan [RM4.028b, 23.7x, 11.00%, 18% average]
Supermax [RM1.346b, 19.64x, 8.30%, 8% annualized]
Comfort [RM0.400b, 15.5%, 11.24%, 12.5% actual]
Rubberex [RM0.181b, 8.7x, 6.73%, 8.3% actual]
Careplus [RM0.152b, 959x, 3.06%, 0.2% actual]

If it is accorded a PER of 20x (some discount as compared to Topglove and Kossan due to smaller size], the price shall be RM0.92, which is 20 cent upside from the current share price.

The management is very committed to enhance productivity and cost saving, which I think they will overtake bigger glove manufacturers by delivering on efficiency and productivity.

Tan Sri Ahmad Fuzi continues to mop up shares in the market, catapulting his direct stake to 12.55%. Apart from that, Ace credit in which he is the chairman, holds another 16%. Here is the breakdown of shareholding. Almost 45% is tightly held by these 4 biggest shareholders. Free float maybe less than 40%, which make it easy for the share price to go up.

Ace Credit Sdn. Bhd. - 16.08%
Tan Sri Ahmad Fuzi - 12.55%
Mr Chang Choon Ming - 9.61%
Mr Ang Chuang Jay - 6.71%

In addition, ConnectCounty had invested additional RM10 million to expand their capacity, reflecting the confidence of directors on the company outlook. They will not invest the huge sum of money if they are not expecting at least IRR of 10%, aren't they?

Can't wait on the Q1 2017. Probably limit up tomorrow?

Usually the commodities like rubber & latex will follow the oil price. Now that oil price has decline, their raw material become cheaper. Good news is currency exchange still hover between RM4.45 to RM4.42/USD. Meaning their margin will improve!

yes, quite disappointed when they do not declare any dividends for 2016. A small 5 cent dividend would be a sweetener. Something is better than nothing, right?

The management has indicated that KSL Mall 2+other developments within Klang would require investment up to RM 2 billion. As long as they do not call for cash (right issue), it is okay not to declare huge dividends. Look at L&G, where minority shareholders were shortchanged.

On the positive side, Kenanga has quietly increased the TP from RM0.99 to RM1.30, which you can see from this link.

The outbreak of diseases will always spurs the demand for gloves, as what happened to Kelantan this week. Just like consumer product companies, glove companies is recession proof. People get sick even it is recession, and hospitals need gloves as what people need water, food and shelter.

Comfort glove has a clean balance sheet as compared to another small glove company, Careplus. It is in net cash, with a big room for expansion as opposed to Careplus. Careplus has stretched their balance sheet just to keep in the game with big guys.

In addition, the average currency exchange between Nov 16' to Jan 17' is estimated to be around RM4.40/USD, while in the previous quarter, Q3 is approximately at RM4.10/USD (when they achieve RM8.3 million net profit). In Q2, the average is RM4.05/USD, where they achieved RM6.0 million net profit after deducting the proceed from insurance claim of RM12 million. Believe that they will post a higher revenue and net profit in Q4!! In long term, the share price will keep rising in tandem with EPS expansion. Remember that Top Glove was once a penny stock, unlike today. Short term TP RM0.90, while long term RM2.00 (probably can be achieved in 2-3 years)

Do not forget that Top Glove has openly declared their intention to acquire smaller player. Only god knows which company they are looking after.

All johor based property companies were up today due to spill over from IWCity excitement. Believe that investment bank may reconsider the discount for KSL RNAV. KSL were discounted 90%! from their RNAV of RM7.07. If IWCity RNAV is RM4.50 and now fetch a price of RM2.08, KSL should be RM3.30.

With future HSR between KL and Singapore, potential REIT after completion of Klang KSL City Mall 2, KSL would fly. As other property companies are affected by slowdown of property sales, KSL continues to rack huge profit, higher than industry average due to KSL Mall & Hotel. Now their investment property contributes almost 30% to the profit!.

agree with uvlam. They posted moderate profit for Q4 due to increasing overhead cost, in preparation of capacity expansion for DirecTV Latin America HDMI cables supply contract. Revenue and net profit will increase sharply by then. They are in net cash and strong new shareholder (Ace Credit) behind them. Believe the share price will touch 30 to 40 cents by the time Q1 17' is announced.

The similarity of DUKE and LDP is both are intercity highways, which means high volume of vehicle passing by everyday.

before you jump into the bandwagon, please note that the gain is actually extraordinary gain due to underpaying for OSKP and PJDev. Striping RM363 million from RM402 million, the actual profit before tax would be RM39 million which is lower than usual profit. Plus profit from RHBCap has reduced due lower profit reported by the bank.

profit increased due to negative goodwill. They pay for OSKP and PJDev RM363 million less than it should be. You can work out how much the price should be. In fact they extract RM300 million cash from OSKP alone. OLH is shit..

that is possible looking from their balance sheet. suprised to see they distribute almost 90% of the profit!

They are among the beneficiary from bauxite mining in Kuantan, and the revenue of RM29mil is parked under property development revenue. That is why their property development margin is 36%! since cost for selling bauxite is meagre.

Last year I managed to get some shares from their IPO. If I'm not mistaken in their prospectus, they mentioned that the earning from bauxite mining will flow through until 2016. So expect good dividend income until then, unless, the state government decided to stop the bauxite mining license..

Apart from residential housing, Matrix also is also selling industrial land, which is subjected to GST. This is why their Q1 net profit increased sharply, mostly due to pre-GST buying rush.

As for KSL, I believe that their net profit fluctuates due to the same reason, which is industrial land selling. Other property developers that develop only residential housing have more streamlined profit, provided that they have continuous project.

KSL has been conservative in the past, conserving a lot of cash. Thus they will have no problem in funding the KSL Mall Klang, without the need to borrow money.

On the other hand, being a Johor-centric property company is not bad at all. With the depreciating ringgit, more and more singaporeans are buying property in this state, probably through their relatives here.

In the long term, they will prevail.

If you are sitting on paper gain right now, my advice is to sell the shares and bought other stocks which have been beaten down. When market has rebounded, you will make more profit rather than holding this shares.

This is why you should not believe to analyst. They are good making great presentation and projections, based on information available on the internet. What they should do is to do checking on the MOPU and get feedback from previous client before. Only then, they will know why is it difficult to get chartered.

I dont think it is fair since Atria is booked only at meagre valuation and its potential. If it is valued at market price, the NTA will shoot up. Besides it has small share base with huge retained earnings/reserve, which has potential for bonus issue or special dividend.
