One of the highest contract in term of value in past 2 years. Looking good for the future with its strong technical fundamentals to win the contract.

ITMAX is also doing identical job as WILLOW and it is trading above RM3 bil market capitalisation. WILLOW on the other hand is only 174 mil. The latest quarterly profit margin of ITMAX can be as high as 40%. Imagine if WILLOW can raise their profit margin from a single digit to 15 to 20, the share price will be more than double of existing price. Time to ponder.

This company is owned by a relative of OSK boss. They filthy rich already so have no ambition whatsoever to grow Willow like Itmax

Question to ponder is when the Canada unit (exploring new business) will see light at the end of the tunnel ? Few more losses may cause people hit the panic button.

Mgt shld consider to divest the Canada business if it cannot have effective monitoring
and continous incurring of losses will drag the group down .

Originally Willow was a Canadian company. Osk family member bought it, expanded it to Malaysia and Singapore. Then listed it in bursa.
It started in Canada, not the other way around.

Correct me if i am wrong. Thought they bought only the Singapore operations fr the Canada co . The business then expanded to Malaysia and sought listing in 2002.
The current investment in Canada co was made in 2015.

If the selloff is without the base, expect management to be more aggressive in buying back.

Why can’t Willow emulate the performance of ITMAX?

Posted by Learner68 > 1 week ago | Report Abuse

coming QR is critical.. Would it be a 3rd consecutive profit loss? It is hard to believe a company that won contracts from Singapore government not making a profit.

Looks like Canada operations still bleeding. Will be prudent for Willow to start having some management control over the operations. Not wise to have zero management participation despite having a substantial stake.
