When Might Inix Technologies Holdings Berhad Run Out Of Money?
A company’s cash runway is calculated by dividing its cash hoard by its cash burn. When Inix Technologies Holdings Berhad last reported its balance sheet in July 2019, it had zero debt and cash worth RM486k. Importantly, its cash burn was RM2.9m over the trailing twelve months. That means it had a cash runway of around 2 months as of July 2019. To be frank we are alarmed by how short that cash runway is! You can see how its cash balance has changed over time in the image below.

The better-than-expected earnings were due to higher-than-expected sales volumes. We raise our FY20/21 forecasts by 5.5%/2.5% respectively to account for better sales volumes. After our earnings adjustment, we upgrade our rating to “buy” (from “hold”), with a higher TP of 76 sen (from 74 sen previously), based on 10 times revised current year 2020 earnings per share of 7.6 sen. We continue to like Homeritz due to its healthy net cash per share of 28.9 sen and increased automation efforts.

Below expectations. Apollo recorded 2QFY20 core net profit of MYR3.15m (-9.2% YoY, +5.6% QoQ), bringing 1HFY20 core net profit to MYR6.4m (-31% YoY). This is below our expectations, accounting for just 37% of our previous full-year forecast. The group’s topline was lower than expected, which we believe was affected by a challenging environment and intense competition. No dividend was declared.

FY20 will see full-year contributions from acquisition of AEON Mall Kinta City.

Well, once upon a time BAT used to be one of the investor's favourites on Bursa Malaysia especially with its consistent dividend yield. Back then BAT was representing one of the top 30 market cap stocks in FBMKLCI index. In fact, its stock price was the highest among FBMKLCI index components. Peaked at around RM 72 per share, BAT's share price has since fallen to multi-year low at around RM 15. Unfortunately, the fall in share price was mainly due to the huge decline in sales and profit throughout the years.

COMPANIES’ AGMs and EGMs, from the media perspective, usually are uneventful events. You never expect a rowdy and violent scuffle such as prevalent at Taiwan’s Legislative Yuan.
Local EGMs and AGMs are often attended by a small number of shareholders, usually retirees largely lurking for door gifts or a free meal or meeting old friends as a means to spend their free time. A handful of people will question the board members and vote for the resolutions put forward.
The big companies can draw in representatives from institutional investors who may have some questions for the board, but more often than not such enquiries are now attended to via conference calls and analysts briefings.
