You have to understand the nature of business Insas is in. It is inevitable that their earnings will be volatile but having said that, they managed to deliver consistent earnings.

It's better to look at Insas from asset-based investing approach.

moneypedia oic good2 @sslee..i believe sustainability of Insas is important to it investees also...

Continuing from my previous post:
Here's another perspective to look at.
Cash balances and money market funds amount to RM105,719,000 which is equivalent to RM1.02/ share

At current price of RM1.30++, the rest of the business is valued at 20++ sen.

This time i provide a simple valuation

Price = 1.32
Net cash/share = 1.02
Annualised EPS = 13.65sen

ex-Cash PER = 2.2 times

It's not too far fetched if you take into consideration in the unrealised gain in its investment securities which currently booked at book value.


dunspace In my opinion, RM3 intrinsic value is too far fetched.... his just blowing him own trumpet unless there is a hidden associate/subsidiary that can grow like Inari.

Do you think at current price, the company is trading at a tremendous bargain?

Value is in the eye of the beholder. I may see value and yet you disagree.

So the key question is whether the management is competent and capable to drive the company through this difficult period? What is your assessment of the management?

Another question is whether these supply problem is a prolonged structural issue?

just my opinion, i believe the selldown could be due to the strengthening of RM.

nothing to worry about as this is macro-related variable which the company to an extend can only mitigate via hedging.

business fundamentals unchanged and prospect seems bright.

take a longer term view then u will be fine, just enjoy the high dividend payout in the meantime which is fully supported by its strong FCF generation.

Liihen is a very safe investment.

Short term price weakness is normal. Not every share can go up like Hengyuan. It;s better to inch up slowly and let the market dictates it.

More importantly, fundamentals are good.
Strong B/S: Net cash 54 sen per share, FCF/share > 4.5% (above risk free rate), DY > 6%
Strong earnings visibility: riding on US economic growth and the hurricane effect

Looking at their equity investments, to me, they act like private equity firm. They build sizeable stake in the company and account them as associates. Their businesses are diversified because of their strategic holding in these investee companies.

In a typical treasury function, there are full time employed professionals carrying out the investment activities (doing research, site visit, buying, selling etc), with each team set-up specialising in equities, bonds, money market etc. What u need to know is what is the governance structure in place overseeing this investment function. I don’t think Thong is the one who made the call, and if so, is his discretionary authority is approved by the Board and or is there a check and balance function to mitigate such situation.

I believe there is someone heading this division who is full time observing the function. The next question is whether they have an investment committee to meet regularly and evaluate the performance of the investments and whether the investing strategies/process meets the investment objective.

Why do u want to recommend OTB? He is more a trader.

Insas investments are of long term nature, 3-5 years as stated in the AR. Apart from equities, they do invest in fixed income, money market and options.

Pls check Thong's background, he is a prominent Investment Banker. And also, i do remember in the past AR, they did mention about having investment team set-up overseeing this function.
