charlie chia Calvin Is it correct that PM Corp still have A lot of cash in hand right Less paid up compare to MUI Easier to push up Further with solid business and property going on 11/04/2017 21:39
Yes, this is the difference between Pm Corp & Mui Bhd
1) Pm Corp has lots of CASH & INVESTMENTS But little debt. So it is very safe. Just like Opcom.
2) Mui Bhd on the surface has Huge Debt & also losses year after year. That's why Mr. Market is put off by ignorant & undue fear.
But if you know the actual Value of all Mui Bhd Assets & Businesses you will notice that Mui Bhd is totally oversold.
3iii 1. 2016 was another year of losses. 2. Profit margins negative 3 Return on capital employed negative 4. Inventories turn 2x (very low) 5. Days in account receivables 136 days 6. Days in account payables 189 days (suppliers ain't happy) 7. Cash 311 m Short term debt 202 m Long term debt 717 m NET DEBT 608 m 8. Equity 711 m Debt/Equity 0.86 9. Total EBIT from 2012 to 2016 = 192.1 m 10. Total Interest paid from 2012 to 2016 = 272.8 m 11. Interest cover (EBIT/Interest) is extremely low. 12. Free cash flows in recent years continue to be negative due to continuing relatively high capex relative to cash from operations.
Gruesome company indeed.
At 0.28 per share, its market cap is 557 m. P/BV = 557 / 711 = 0.78
Present price is reflecting its gruesome value. 11/04/2017 22:54
Hahaha!
From Investlah to i3 Forum
Last time you valued Pm Corp at 14 cts
See after CASH payout of 8 sen do you value Pm Corp at 6 sen.
So by the same yardstick do you think that Pm Corp at 23 sen is overvalued?
One more thing, do you own any landed properties. Or are you just renting?
Do you know how to Calculate The Intrinsic Value of Mui Prop lands in Bandar Springhill. The CORUS HOTELS in UK, 2 CORUS HOTEL VALUE in Malaysia? 6 Acres Land in Australia?
Now take this test of 3 years
On September 20th 2013 Pm Corp was 15 sen today Pm Corp is 23 sen (plus 8 sen) cash payout Pm Corp is 31 cts. So Pm Corp has gone up by 106% in 3 years or 35.5% yearly for each of 3 years.
On September 20th 2013 Dutch Lady was Rm46.40. Today it is Rm56.62 or up 22% or 7% each year. Even if you add yearly dividend Pm Corp still beats Dutch Lady hands down
On September 20th 2013 Nestle was Rm67.8. Today it is Rm80.00 or up 12.2% or 4.06 yearly. Even if you include dividend Pm Corp still beats Nestle hands down.
This shows that you have misjudged value & performance by a wide margin.
Every one knows the price of a thing but not its value
Is Pm Corp making 35.5% yearly for 2014, 2015 & 2016 a gruesome company compared to less than 10% for both Dutch Lady & Nestle?
Let all Accountants, CFA, Auditors, Chief Auditor of Bank Negara come and calculate!
Generally, I don't have much interest in property counters so I am going to sit this one out. The one time that I followed your call was in Tmakmur last year. Yup, I made some! Good call...... and thank you!
Calvin awhile ago you highly recommend PARKSON. Is Parkson another hibernating giant waiting to wake up? As you mentioned earlier, Parkson has net assets that are worth billions.

Calvin is happy to hear that!
TMakmur was the highest dividend paying stock after Tasek Cement

Calvin thinks Parkson is also a Net Net stock.
Only problem is with William Cheng
He should just close off all Parkson Departmental Store type of business. With the advent of motor car horse drawn carriages became obsolete
So with the advent of ECommerce conventional type of business is going into the sunset. All the assets of Parkson cannot stem the losses in Departmental type of business which will suck dry the coffers.
UNLESS he change with the changing of the times.
So Parkson is good value in so far as its assets could be stripped, sold and cash given back to shareholders. Or else change its business strategy. If not just get out as the final resort.
Peppermint Based on the latest quarterly result, Parkson are now a net cash company. 12/04/2017 00:24
If you are all shareholders go for AGM and demand that William stop his nonsense then there will be hope indeed!
The first 2 times I attended Pm Corp AGM were filled with strong opposition and unhappiness. Management gradually softened to the demands of shareholders and stemmed the draining of Pm Corp's wealth to loss making PMI and OTHERS.
And shareholders extracted a promise of Cash payout
So you all MUST BE PROACTIVE IN SHAREHOLDERS MEETING
My Johor Sifu dare to Bang Table (throw slippers) at the Directors when he attended Kseng AGM.
Thanks Calvin for your prompt reply, but based on Parkson latest quarterly report, Parkson has net cash of about 865mil compared to its present market cap of about 700mil which I find Parkson to be attractively undervalued.
