guys, today's falling is just a matter of time. If you look into the fundamentals of this share: Q1 EPS: 0.3 sen... i try to be more optimistic that Q2-Q4 will earn more... let's say 0.5 sen.. then total EPS for full year will still be below 2sen... previous price of 41 sen is already more than PE20... next, look at the net asset.. it is 18sen.. at 41 sen of share price, P/BV is 2.28!!! much higher than 1.5 ratio... not cheap! no margin of safety... any price above 1.5x 18sen= 27sen is considered expensive...
ok, they said they received many orders... but do you know that the customers (banks) can defer/delay the orders anytime? if you understand their contract terms (a friend of mine in this industry told me), they can on-hold the delivery of the CRM machines if need to... so their growth may not be as promising as many have thought... just my 2 cents... let's wait and see for next few quarter results before we buy... if the results are still poor, it will go back to around 20+sen, trust me..
It's recurring profit stands at 73% which is the software maintenance & service segment , even if hardware sales is not that fantastic , the majority income is still quite resilient and recurring in nature, whenever there's hardware sales , software maintenance and service segment will increase , therefore I don't see much of earnings volatility ... Today market over panic .. Haha
that is why i always view the "prospects" given by management with a pinch of salt.. not to say cannot trust what they say.. but we have to analyse... sometimes the prospect is something we can be more than 90% sure it will happen, sometimes it is just "prospects"... for example, AirAsia, we can tell from their load factor and other financial forecast (from their sales of tickets in advance)... and their cost of fuel (hedged at a certain low level)... these are certain.. and we know these good earning prospects are very likely...
bavos, in this case, why would Q1 EPS is so low? (I know they said Q1 2015 was high because the customers wanted to buy before the GST was in place).. but after GST, no more software maintenance & service?
Look at its amount of cashflow the company can produce over the many years , it's really quite resilient ... The amount of dividend potential it can give back shareholders is more than twice of the current dividend payout . The company already have strong footing in insurance , banks , utilities and telco companies ...
at first glance (like many of you), i thought opensys was a good buy when it was around 25sen.. unfortunately after i did more research, i still think that there are too many uncertainties... example.. do you think many banks will change their current deposit machine and ATM if they are stil working fine? second, if change from 2 lines to 1 line, the queue will be damn long..
1Q to judge that company is not doing well is not enough , haha but price drop some more will be favour able to people looking to buy :) , key telltales sign to see if the company's is doing badly is its gross profit margin and its amount of cashflow it can produce . In fact q1 2016 cashflow is so much higher than q1 2015, it could be a lot of prepayments from customers , but co yet to book its revenue or profits yet... If q1 2016 cashflow is indeed much Lower than q1 2015 , then investors should be wary. Value investors emphasize on cashflow generations instead of profits in the long term. Read Amazon's chairman statement in annual report over the years will definitely gain more insight for everyone here. In fact Amazon gross margin is razor thin. After reading , read opensys chairman statement , u all can generally sense the probable prospects , it may not be accurate always , but u can generally feel where the company is heading .
Convicted and committed investors should stay the course...when price goes down, a lot of people will becomes negative... anyone in doubt should drive around in his or her vicinity and visit Hong Leong, Maybank and Public Bank and count how many OKI CRM are installed...one machine assumed 50k. If assume 300 machines installed, it is 15 million. If the machine is more than 50k and no of machines is more, then it is more than 15 millions...
@iloveshare128 the reason to upgrade the ATM machine to 2-in1 together with the deposit machine has its advantages. I saw in PBB personally that - although there is a lot of ATM machine but most of it run out of cash...so to have d 2in1 machine, it saves the day and manage to "recycle" on it's own. it saves a lot of manpower effort from the bank's perspective especially over the weekend! i see the importance of bank upgrading those machine real soon...jt my personal observation TQ
we all acknowledge that the growth is there.. but may have been over-exaggerated by analysts... moreover, at current share price, PE is too high and P/BV is too high...
future EPS growth is not in-line with the adjusted PE ratio in future... even if the EPS double in future, PE is still more than 10... but do you think their EPS will double in these few years? 2015 was their best year (because many customers bought before GST implementation)... and EPS was only 2.61... you think they can achive more than 4 sen EPS in these few years? think twice...
Kang Yang Lai.. i am aware of what you mentioned above... unfortunately in Malaysia's culture, if you dont see the machine break down and totally cannot be repaired, you won;t see replacement of new machines... but dun forget one thing... more ppl use ATM than cash deposit machine.. having said so, more cash is taken out and less cash deposited.. so 2in1 machine will still run out of cash... (maybe only in shopping malls, many shop owners deposit the money into the machines, then we can see these places will need this 2-in1 machine).. other bank branches.. it will only cause much longer queue (due to cash deposit activities - a lot of rejects of notes)
i wondering today T+7 ? not really know to count margin thing . Just wait for QR next Thursday . The company not just CRM , they got others machine also .
Company EPS are always not very clear n can be manipulated. As value investors we shuld analysis more d Cash flow n d Free Cash Flow to estimate or calculate d risk or calculated risks, before investing in a particular company. Net Earning or profit growth plus Cash Flow growth of at least 5 years. Using d PEG is d most practical way to find out d fair value, if u want to invest in more than 100 companies. Gd weekends!
well said geary.. and in this case, Opensys PE ratio is too high... which I think recent hike was manipulated... it should trade at below 30sen which correlates well with its PE...
Lets be realistic. It wont drop till 20sen. And qr if loss also will be v small. Bt i still perdict profit qr bt might nt be that superb only. Thats my own analysis only. Trade cautiously as this counter has risen too fast.
Agreed went up too fast. But collecting opportunity. Went to my local Maybk today in Ipoh. Had a new ATM machine. OKI. used it to try out. Fast and efficient. Better than the old ones. Looks like Maybk slowly moving to OKI machines. Will benefit Opensys
it should be trading around 26-28sen at most... the growth is there but has been over-exaggerated... i expect slow growth as banks normally don't change the machines unless they are totally not repairable... afterall, they may be getting complaints from ATM users as well as they will need to wait for those who deposit money (even worse if the amount to deposit is large)... we all had the same bad experience doing cash deposit... it is time consuming and reject rate for cash is high!...
