"Our 7-year Ophir Risk Sharing Contract (“RSC”) was a major
operational highlight during FY2017. The Ophir project is a seven-year
RSC contract secured in 2014 with consortium partners and is
located off Kerteh, Terengganu, Malaysia.

SESB managed to bring down operating costs which has allowed Ophir to remain viable in
the present scenario."


The above comment was made in its 2017 Annual Report (page 16) issued in July 2017 when Brent Oil price was much lower. So, RSC should be very profitable when Brent Oil trades at US$60 per barrel and above.

Just wonder why Tropicana can dispose of the newly completed W-Hotel to unlock its hidden value and book in some substantial extraordinary gain from the disposal....

Under the joint-development deal, Malton will bear the entire development cost, while Ho Hup provides the land and is entitled to 18% of the estimated GDV of RM3.4 billion. The project comprises a shopping complex, shop offices, office tower, service apartments and a hotel. This alone will translate into RM612 mil cash flow for Ho Hup from the JV.

The last 5 year history or record showed that this counter only had a brief rally period which was not sustained for long. Effectively the major shareholders did not do much to reward its long term minority shareholders in terms of capital appreciation like other more reputable property counters like LBS. It looks like the company or its principals have no or little regards or confidence from the investment community. It is simply a hopeless company after all as its share price has been one of the worst performing for the last 3 years.

Most of its properties will be priced below RM1 mil. It has more cash than loans. Its land bank is mostly undervalued too.

Just keep this counter for another 2 years to see the result since its CEO is too old to work faster to launch the projects to unlock the value of this company.

Whatever bad news or kitchen sinking news has been reflected in its 5 year low price. This counter is poised to recover strongly in the near future as it is still one of the main beneficial parties to the Pan Borneo highway construction. Moreover, it has strong shareholders to support the company. Just keep this for a year. The upside should outweigh the downside.

RM400 mil cash & short term funds in hand !!

Half year EPS = 1.98 sen

The new shareholder will likely stop supporting the share price once the deadline for minority shareholders to accept the current MGO @ 16 sen is over..... be careful....

Even the previous MAJOR shareholder (the late Tan Sri LIm Goh Tong's son) held and controlled the company for 15 years and didn't manage to add value or enhance the company value, and finally had to sell off his entire stake at 16 sen per share last month..........pity those who bought into this counter earlier this year when it was pushed up to 71 sen for no reason or positive development in the company......sigh......

We maintain our forecasts, FV of RM2.76 and BUY call, following an analyst briefing yesterday. Our FV is based on 12x FY18F FD EPS, in line with our 1-year forward target PE of 10-12x for small-cap construction stocks.

YTD, Kimlun’s construction division has bagged about RM0.9bil new jobs, boosting its balance order book to approximately RM2bil (including the RM50mil Tanjung Langsat–Cahaya Masai Toll connecting road contract awarded by Mah Sing announced yesterday). Kimlun believes it should end FY17F with total job wins of about RM1bil, vs. RM1.4bil it secured in FY16.

For FY18, Kimlun is mixed on the prospects of construction job wins. While it is confident of securing about RM500mil worth of government-funded affordable housing projects (such as PR1MA and Selangorku), it is cautious on the private property sector (given the still soft property market) and the public infrastructure sector (given the unpredictability of the actual timing of the rollout of key infrastructure projects including the East Coast Rail Link and KL-Singapore High-Speed Rail).

We have raised our assumption for construction job wins in FY17F to RM1bil (from RM900mil), which is offset by higher interest expenses arising from higher capex of RM60mil and RM30mil in FY17-18F as guided (vs. our assumption of RM15mil annually), largely to facilitate the execution of the RM1.46bil Pan Borneo Sarawak contract. For FY18-19F, we maintain our assumption for construction job wins at RM700mil annually.

Meanwhile, its manufacturing order backlog remains elevated at RM320mil (vs. RM260mil six months ago), underpinned largely by MRT2 orders comprising segmental box girders, tunnel lining segments and other pre-cast concrete products (with a total value of RM280mil), with the balance coming from recurring orders from various infrastructure projects in Singapore.

We project Kimlun's FD EPS to contract by 20.8% in FY17F from a high base a year ago (largely due to lumpy variation order claims recognised during the year). Its earnings growth momentum should resume in FY18F (+27.7%).

We continue to like Kimlun as it is a good proxy to the booming local construction sector given its involvement in the MRT2 (supply of precast concrete segments), Pan Borneo Highway and the construction of affordable housing. Kimlun's earnings profile has improved tremendously as it no longer relies solely on building jobs, but has expanded to infrastructure (Pan Borneo Highway). Similarly, its manufacturing unit has widened its product offering with the latest being rail sleepers and parapet walls.

The entry of TSDLWC has effectively removed the fear of this company being taken private in the foreseeable future.

Great news for the investors.

It can shoot up much more if it could sign a JV to develop a property project without having to pay the land cost upfront. This may happen given its strong track record in constructing high rise buildings.

It should start securing new projects soon as the property market has seen some projects having been well received by the public with good take up rates upon launching

It's a matter of time for prime property counters to regain their glory and be appreciated. Three years have passed.........

Prospects For 2017 (Extract from its latest quarterly report)

The Group has an estimated construction and manufacturing balance order book of approximately
RM1.98 billion and RM0.32 billion respectively as at 30 June 2017, contributed by numerous
construction contracts and supply contracts. The balance order book provides a good earnings
visibility to the Group and is expected to keep the Group busy for the next 2 years.

The Board is optimistic that the construction sector of Malaysia and Singapore will continue to be
vibrant in 2017, thus offer order book replenishment prospects.

Property counters got hope???

Inta may start moving up the moment it has secured a major project worth RM 200 mil.

It's the best news as it's disposing the biggest money losing F&B business in the group. The disposal will see the group report better earnings in the 3rd & 4th quarterly results.

Finally the management is doing the right things and putting the group on the right path. It will launch more projects by end of this year.

It is confirmed that L&G wants to redevelop 20 acres of of its Sri Damansara Club land which has a book value of slightly > RM3.7 mil only. The current open market value of the 20 acres land will be $$$$$$.

Its another plot of land in Shah Alam known as The U10 Land, measuring approximately 112.3 acres, will be a new township that will be developed into a mix of link houses, semi-detached houses, serviced apartments and affordable housing (Rumah Selangorku). The building plans have been submitted while the conceptualization of the development is being finalised for future submission. The estimated GDV for the entire project is RM1.25 BILLION.

All in all, the company can generate a total GDV of RM8 BILLION from all its land bank in decent locations.

It looks like that L&G needs more research houses to promote it to the public then only it can start moving up....quite disappointed with its sleeping management team for not engaging the research houses and media........
