SUMMARY OF POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE FACTORS/NEWS AFFECTING YTLPOWR'S BUSINESS AND PROFITABILITY-

POSITIVES:-

THE 2 NOTABLE ANALYSTS HAD ELOQUENTLY PRESENTED ALL THE FACTORS (BUSINESS AND PROFIT GROWTHS) OF THE LAST 2 YEARS AND WHICH HAD PUSHED UP IT'S SHARE PRICE FROM ABOUT RM0.60 SEN TO ITS HIGH OF RM5.44.

ITS SHARE PRICE HAD SINCE RETRACED DUE TO THE RECENT BAD NEWS:-

NEGATIVES:-

1) OUR MUCH STRONGER RINGGIT. THE UPWARD TREND OF THE FX VALUES OF OUR RINGGIT WILL TRANSLATE ITS EARNINGS FROM ITS OVERSEAS MAJOR SUBSIDIARIES IN SPORE, UK, JORDAN TO MARKEDLY LOWER LEVELS
(TO BE SEEN WHEN IT RELEASED ITS NEXT Q RESULTS (AS AT 30/9/24)
ON 23/11/24
2) MAAC INVESTIGATIONS INTO ALLEGATIONS OF : quote "INCORRECT CLAIMS OF RM2.7 BILLION
UNDER ITS 1BESTARINET CONTRACT" unquote

MAAC'S ONGOING PROBE WILL TAKE TIME
THE NEGATIVES LIES IN THE UNCERTAINTIES OF MAAC'S FINDINGS
THERE CAN POSSIBLY BE MANY RISKS. BUT ONE WHICH IS VERY CONCERNING COULD BE :
" WHAT WILL BE THE IMPACT IF MAAC'S FINDINGS LEAD TO THE GOVERNMENT DEMANDING A REFUND OF , SAY, JUST 20% OF THE RM2.7 BILLION PAID CLAIM. WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ITS FINANCIAL RESULTS?

You, a rube, might think that Nvidia is a big fat bubble, given that it’s worth almost as much as the entire UK stock market, trades at over 40 times next year’s forecasted earnings and even has its own earnings parties, spivvy support act and a monstrous options ecosystem.

What is a Death Cross?
The death cross is a chart pattern that indicates the transition from a bull market to a bear market. This technical indicator occurs when a security’s short-term moving average (e.g., 50-day) crosses from above to below a long-term moving average (e.g., 200-day).

ANALYSIS OF YTLPOWR'S FUNDAMENTALS AS AT 30/9/24

POSITIVES :-

VERY STRONG GROWTH WITH INCREASING EPS N DECREASING P.E.s SEEN UP TO ITS 3Q 2024 (31/3/2024) RESULTS.
JUSTIFYING HIGH VALUATIONS AND PRICE TARGETS

NEGATIVES:-

ITS BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL FUNDAMENTALS SEEN TO HAVE PEAKED IN ITS 4Q (30/6/2024) RESULTS:-
(1) SPORE POWERSERAYA'S 4Q PROFITS DECLINED COMPARED TO ITS PRECEDING Q
(2) OVERALL ITS RESULTS WOULD HAD DECLINED IF THE EXTRAORDINARY GAIN (paper value gain) FROM ITS TAKE OVER SHARE PURCHASE OF RANHILL WAS NOT INCLUDED
(note that Ramhill's share price had since fell back. How is it's coming 1Q 2025 (30/9/24) going to be adjusted to reflect this decline?)
(3) DURING THE 3 MONTHS FROM JUNE TO SEPTEMBER 2024 (1Q 2025) YTLPOWR'S BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL FUNDAMENTALS HAD WEAKENED DUE TO :-
(A) THE BUSINESS DYNAMICS OF POWERSERAYSA HAD DETERIORATED BASED ON THE RESEARCH FINDINGS PROVIDED BY HNG33 (plse refer)
BASED ON THIS POWERSERAYA'S PROFITS WILL LIKELY DECLINE DURING ITS 1Q 2025 OPERATIONS
B) THE PERSISTENT STRONG RUN UP OF OUR RINGGIT AGAINST SGD, STERLING AND USD IS REAL
THIS WILL TRANSLATE ALL ITS OVERSEAS SUBSIDIARIES' RESULTS/PROFITS INTO SIGNIFICANT DECLINES AFTER FINANCIAL CONSOLIDATION ON 30/9/24.
LIKELY TO BE SEEN WHEN ITS 1Q RESULTS ARE RELEASED ON 23/11/24.

ALL THE ABOVE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS DO NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ANY PROFIT CONTRIBUTIONS BY ITS LATEST BUSINESS TIE-UP WITH NVIDIA BCOS AS POINTED OUT BY HNG33 THIS AI DC VENTURE IS UNLIKELY TO BEAR FRUITS UNTIL AFTER 2ND HALF OF FY2025

(4) MAAC INVESTIGATIONS INTO ITS 1BESTARINET RM4B PROJECT:-

MY ABOVE ANALYSIS DO NOT DWELL INTO THIS ONGOING PROBE WHICH WILL TAKE SOME TIME.
WHATEVER ITS FINDINGS THE FACT THAT MAAC HAD STARTED ITS INVESTIGATION AND EXPECTED TO BE QUITE A LENGTHY PROCESS IS ALREADY CREATING UNCERTAINTIES.

MY SINCERE COMMENTS AFTER READING ALL THE OLD AND NEW ANALYSIS AND COMMENTS FROM THOSE WHO ARE STILL SUPPORTIVE OF THEIR ORIGINAL BULLISH PRICE TARGET PROJECTIONS AND THOSE ON THE OTHER SIDE WHO ARE SEEMED INCLINED TO BELIEVE THE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCES OF YTLPOWR WILL LIKELY WEAKENED DOWN TO MORE REALISTIC LEVELS IN THE COMING FEW QUARTERS.
I AM INCLINED TO AGREE WITH THE LATTER GROUP OF CONTRIBUTORS .
BECAUSE THE NEW FACTUAL INFORMATION ON HEAD WINDS FACED BY SPORE SERAYAPOWER AND THE STRENGTHENING RINGGIT JUSTIFY A MORE REALISTIC MODERATED DOWN FUTURE SHARE PRICE EXPECTATIONS FOR YTLPOWR IN FUTURE QUARTERS.
THE BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL CONFIGURATIONS HAD CHANGED ON THE DOWNSIDES FOR YTLPOWR.

Good luck.
[18/09, 02:00] Darren Liew: THIS WILL BE TRUE AND OVERALL POSITIVE FOR MALAYSIAN ECONOMY BUT FOR YTLPOWR ITS GOING TO BE VERY NEGATIVE BCOS ALMOST ALL ITS BUSINESS REVENUES AND PROFITS WILL BE BADLY AFFECTED/REDUCED. IT'S P.E.s going forward will Be SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THEREBY MAKING ITS SHARE LESS ATTRACTIVE .WE ALL KNOW THAT WHEN PROFITS DECLINE SIGNIFICANTLY ITS SHARE PRICE WILL BE DAMPENED.
