The management like to give sweet and poison. Few days ago had announced good result. Yesterday again announced that will have to retrenchment and costs RM12.9 mil. The situation is similar with last financial year end period. Very good result and declared 14sen dividend but the next day said right issue. Really kind of manipulating our emotions.

Refers to the circular for shareholders during the right issue subscription. They had mentioned the rights will be allocated by the basis below.

1) to minimise the incidence of odd lots;

2) on a pro-rata basis and in board lot to our Entitled Shareholders who have applied for the Excess Rights Shares, calculated based on their respective shareholdings as at the Entitlement Date;

3) on a pro-rata basis and in board lot to our Entitled Shareholders who have applied for the Excess Rights Shares, calculated based on the quantum of their respective Excess Rights Shares applied for; and

4) on a pro-rata basis and in board lot to the renouncee(s)/transferee(s) (if applicable) who have applied for the Excess Rights Shares, calculated based on the quantum of their respective Excess Rights Shares applied for.

They have mentioned in advance on the basis to allocate to significant shareholders, then only to minority shareholders. They can even take up all 1mil unwanted shares from LTAT.

If the managing director has given the correct growth rate of not more than 20% in second half of 2016, then Tguan is in hot trouble.

As per 30/6/15, the profit was RM 11.7mil, let's say RM12 mil X 20% = RM14.4mil - RM13mil (in Q1'16), the current quarter's profit only RM1.4mil.

Unless the growth mentioned was for revenue, then will be RM334mil X 20% = RM400mil - RM180mil (in Q1'16), then current quarter's revenue will be RM220mil X 5% (marginal profit margin) = RM 11mil. Q1 & Q2 = RM24mil or 22sen.

The hint is already given by MD himself.

Not the time to buy yet. But the executive director can approach Mr Koon to buy over the balance of the shares (approximately 5.7%). Then it won't hit the open market so directly. Since Mr Koon already suffer a loss and he can average down the cost to acquire as well.

Profit before tax for the six months ended 30 June 2016 increased by RM7.2 million or 102.9% to
RM14.2 million as compared to the previous corresponding period of RM7.0 million. The improvement was mainly due to significant improvement in productivity and waste reduction as well as the absence of redundancy expense of RM7.1 million which was incurred in the previous corresponding period as a result of the restructuring of the production footprint within the Group to improve strategic positioning to service the customers and reduce operating costs over the longer term, lower amortization cost by RM 3.7 million and lower depreciation charge from the re-assessment of useful life of major PPE in Q3 2015. The aforesaid had effectively mitigated the adverse change in pricing of some products to a major customer.

The improvement was due to the absence of redundancy expense of RM7.1 mil as well as lower amortization cost by RM 3.7 mil = RM10.8 mil. If these costs were incurred, TW will make a operational loss by RM2mil. Luckily, this costs was avoided.

Comparing the quarterly result as at 30/6/15, net profit of RM7mil should be easily achieved. However, whether Tguan's coming quarterly result will be exceeded the previous quarterly profit of RM13mil is really unlikely. So, y-o-y should be ok, but q-o-q is challenging.

Based on the share price trending, it must be revealed from internal parties such as higher management and staff regarding the BAT's contract. Just imagine yourselves, will BAT want to wait until last minutes only inform TienWah about the renewal of contract ? Even if BAT will, TienWah should be approached them earlier about the renewal rite ? The Vietnam's investment is still not mature yet, if Vietnam's government want to give the printing business to the JV, it will also by progressively and will not suddenly shifted all to them. Hence, BAT is still their only hope. Otherwise, will need to wait for more than 3 years.

LTAT's 10mil shares were taken up by us lo. Since last 3 months, they are disposing and the price has been adjusted from the highest RM3.26 to now RM2.30(before ex). Each trading day, LTAT contribute 90% of the volume. If based on the trend of disposal, they should be finish selling at the end of the month or latest early next month before Raya.

Hi Yistock, can you enlighten us the substance over form that you mentioned in your article? I still cannot get the logic that disposal of 50% stake to Vietnam's Gov will have impacted inter-segment. For example, Co A has making profit for 10 years and now want to dispose 50% of the profit to Co B. Why need to have such losses ? Should it be compensated by the proceed from disposal ?

The management might be foresee that LTAT kept disposing the shares. Hence, they delayed to announce the date of the right issue. The management would need to have strong justification/supporting to call for the right issue. If based on the current situation, very unlikely to have investors to subscribe the right issue even at RM1.00. TienWah has already take up the additional 5mil rights which indirectly tells the potential investors that they are at the high chance to get the renewal contract from BAT and Vietnam's JV will contribute positively.

Tguan's board is the conservative type of management. They will not simply issue private placement or other corporate exercise without serious thought. Besides, last year they just call for right issue. Someone who think that profit growth must have corporate exercise is wrong. Price will adjust but in long term still looks good.

Not logical for Mr Tham to acquire the price at RM2.60 and the share currently trading at RM1.6+, apparently he need to fork out additional RM126mil for this acquisition. As a businessman, if the share not worth more than RM2.60, he won't spend additional money on this. Besides, he can borrow additional money to buy over the valuable land in Penang and later on sell back to E&O at high price. (Experience from Founder of Tropicana).

LTAT bought TIENWAH long time ago, the cost of investment for them is low. When they want to dispose off their stake, they still making profit. Besides, due to 3 uncertainties (date of right issues, BAT renewal contract, future prospect in Vietnam) that keep troubling TienWah's investors and potential investors. When LTAT keep disposing their shares is consider good sign for us to collect. Ensure that, in future won't have this kind of significant institutional investors who keep selling like no tomorrow.

LTAT is disposing through open market. The buyers are those genuine long term investors like us. However, dividend will ex tomorrow and this may be no more support to hold at RM2.30, if the support is lost, then will need to wait until the date for the right issues which likely will be end of this month.

Based on wild guess, few reasons that why LTAT disposed the shares.
1) LTAT need to pay dividend to their fund holders
2) LTAT want to restructure the portfolios
3) LTAT want to use the proceed from disposal to take up the rights.

However, whatever the reasons behind, LTAT must be notified/informed before the bad news (BAT planned to move to Indonesia, Right issues). Otherwise, even 14 sen dividend declared also keep disposing.

Just finish reviewed this quarter result, few points would like to highlight
1) Net cash stands at RM 330 mil or RM1.48 per share, which also indicates that after the capital repayment will have 73 sen cash per share in hand.
2) Receivables to be collected RM98.3 mil or RM0.44 per share.
3) Total cash and receivables after capital repayment is RM1.17 per share.
4) Future prospect is to focus develop on its existing land banks to unlock value. The management believes certain property segment can still deliver market acceptance, based on the good locations in the City and affordable pricing strategy. To seize this opportunity, the
Group is targeting to launch the first phase of affordable home at Kota Kinabalu within next financial year. Meanwhile, the Group has planted 2,352 Ha and 50 Ha in Indonesia and Malaysia respectively. The Group continues to expand its oil palm planting area at Kalimantan Timur and Selatan, Indonesia with a target of achieving more than 10,000 planted Ha within next 3 years. With CPO trending upward due to extreme weather pattern, increasing demand from biodiesel initiatives and population increase, the long term prospect for this business is promising.
5) Property and plantation also under bright future prospect. Furthermore, with net cash RM1.17 cash in hand, can easily give another round of special dividend in this coming year end result.
