Not too sure about Imaspro, but I've seen many companies registered surges in sales for the 1st Quarter mainly due to stock piling by customers to avoid GST. Better wait for the next quarter for confirmation.

Hi icon8888 & apini,

Who am I to dispute the stocks picked by both cold eyes & uncle Z. But as soon as I saw OTB presented his yardsticks in picking up stocks, my head was hit hard, i.e. it made me think deeper. I now come to realise that stocks that are experiencing growth (Increasing operating profits) and at the same time the stocks are selling at "steals" (low PE) may not necessarily be a good investment. The third must-have element is the not-too-distant & mid-term prospect of the said stock. For example, KSL. Unbilled sales of RM847mil & recurring income from rentals are expected to propel KSL into achieving yet another record earning for FY2015. All of us are fully aware that the prospects for the property is bleak at least for the next few years. Developers will compete with sub-sales. Because of this, KSL is hardly moving (upwards).

Equally bleak prospect is construction sector. When infra is booming, many jumped into construction. That included the "little known" Gkent. Over the last few years, these contractors invested heavily into machineries. With little jobs up for grab, they will sacrifice their margins or they will incur losses arising from PPE depreciation. I see growth in Gadang for the next 1-2 year, I see Gadang is selling cheap, but I just don't see its prospects of increasing (or at least maintaining the boom orders at present levels).

I will only buy back Gadang when the company is able to win more jobs (replenish book order to at least 2.5 x revenue of FY2015). The above is my take. There is no right or wrong. Good luck.

Apini, would like to share my thoughts. If we uphold OTB's yardsticks, Gadang has no place in our portfolio, see below:

1. EPS growth >10%, Yes (growth stock)
2. PE<10, Yes (undervalued, PE worked out on TTM & near future earnings)
3. Prospect? No. Investors avoid construction/property for near & mid terms. More houses are being built, mortgages restricted, .

Holding longer may mean value trap.

Book order reduced to RM100mil. New equipment purchased for PNB's project. Operating expenses incurred due to depreciation easily exceed RM10-15 mil yearly. Outlook for construction is terrible. New competitor Econpile means the long-term harm for Ptaras.

Phd but act like a novice investor. You should suggest ways to enhance the business, and let the price to be decided to Mr. Market.

What? You want the directors to abandon their core duties and play shares instead? Sounds very weird from a PHD holder? Where did you obtain your PhD?

Apini, I'm sure Fong Siling would admit that he is not a saint. That is why he keeps some 20 stocks in his Portfolio at any given time. He can be wrong too. The forthcoming earnings for Gadang are feasible - there is no need to argue about that. But I'm sure you would also agree that Property is fast becoming lembik. I frequently receive SMS from developers that launch Condo/apartments/residential units, I don't even bother to read the contents of the SMS. So are many other SMS receivers, I think. Property contributes a huge chunk of earnings to Gadang.

Landmarks' Treasure Bay Bintan to have a Mercure and ibis Budget hotel
By Sulhi Azman / theedgemarkets.com | May 18, 2015 : 4:49 PM MYT

KUALA LUMPUR (May 18): Resort and property developer Landmarks Bhd has teamed up with Singapore-based ML Hotel Investments Pte Ltd to develop, own and operate two international hotel chains at its flagship Treasure Bay Bintan development in Bintan, Indonesia.

In a statement today, Landmarks said its wholly-owned subsidiary PT Bintan Hotel Utama has signed a joint venture (JV) agreement with ML Hotel Investments for the proposed projects.

Both hotels, Mercure and ibis Budget, are expected to open in 2017 and will be managed by Accor Group.

Mercure will be a mid-scale hotel with its personality rooted in the local culture, while ibis Budget will provide essential comfort at a budget price.

When completed, Mercure will be the island’s tallest landmark at 10-storey high. It will offer 182 new rooms to Treasure Bay Bintan, of which 114 long-term leases will be made available for sale.

ibis Budget, meanwhile, will feature 162 rooms.

“With this JV and other partnerships with international hospitality brands in the pipeline, we are poised to position Treasure Bay Bintan as Southeast Asia’s leading leisure destination," said Landmarks chief operating officer Fong Chee Khuen in a statement today.

"We are confident that Phase 1 of Treasure Bay Bintan will serve as a catalyst in creating lasting real estate value and augmenting Bintan’s tourism offering, by bringing in unique leisure and entertainment concepts not found anywhere else in the region,” he added.

As at 4pm, Landmarks (fundamental: 1.65; valuation: 0.9) shares were traded unchanged at RM1.37, with 198,000 shares done, for a market capitalisation of RM663.52 million.

I recently spoke to a friend of mine who is working in Infeneon, the semiconductor company with automotive being one of their major pillar of businesses. Please find below the information concerning prospects for burn-in tests you may find it useful.

1. Reliability is utmost important. The Clients (Car Assemblers) require 100% semiconductors devices sent for burn-in tests prior to their assembling works. I previously thought such tests were done based on sampling (random samples).

2. Burn-in tests are not necessary to be performed by to independent testers. Such tests can also be done by their in house subject to approval from their respective Clients. For the in-house tests, the Client would regularly send their teams to check on the test conformities.

3. Infeneon has their own in-house burn-in test department. But many semiconductors companies would prefer for outsourcing such tests to independent testers.

4. Why independent testers are preferred? The semiconductor business is notorious for its “Boom-Bust” cycles. Further, the testing equipment becomes fast obsolete, requires frequent upgrades/periodical calibrations, incur high maintenance costs, etc. The return for investing into such equipment is not attractive at all. Not because they cannot afford to own testing equipment, but they would rather invest their resources in expanding factory productions

5. The only motivations for doing own testings are as follows: (i) Manufacturers have secured long term orders from their Clients; and (ii) Manufacturers would like to have more flexibility for the delivery.

6. Automotive semiconductors are well-positioned for growth. Total market for this sector in 2014 was US$27.5bil. No sign of slowing down, at least for the next few years.

I will try to dig more info regarding the burn-in tests, and will post here next week.

The warrants near expiry, which means the mother price must be maintained above the striking price or the warrants will be reduced to dusts.

As per the Annual Report, the warrants are substantially held by directors. To avoid papers-turn-into-dust scenario, the books were cooked and creative accounting were practised.

Steel manufacturing is a volume game. Big taiko all lost money due to gruelling competitions. This tiny Masteel seems able to turn the tide. This warranted investigation, and the auditors did not want to let go.
