This is a company that has been consistently making losses since FY10. Their resort and wellness business have not been able to get enough customers for them to be operationally viable for almost 10 years. In FY18 the company posted a net loss of RM37.4mil. Any investors that believe 2019 would be any different might be having some wishful thinking on their part. Expect FY19 to continue recording losses as well.

If you are looking to diversify your portfolio outside of F&N (due to its relatively high valuation), I would recommend you to look at MBMR. (https://klse.i3investor.com/servlets/stk/pt/5983.jsp)

MBMR is a direct proxy to Perodua via its 22.6% interest in the company. Valuation is cheap at only 6.1x PE based on FY18 profit of RM166mil. PB is low at only 0.7x BV.

FY19 should deliver another profit growth year to the company. Profit growth will again be driven by the performance of Perodua (via MBMR 22.6% holdings in Perodua) from the still strong sales of new Myvi, sales of SUV Aruz and the introduction of the newly revamp Alza sometime in the 2H19. Aruz which commands a higher margin compared to other models, will help improve the total profit margin of Perodua (which will flow to MBMR’s bottom line as well).

Given the very good result in 4Q18, MBMR is expected to achieve a profit of RM200mil in 2019. At the current share price, the company is being valued at a very low PE of only 5.0x which is a lot lower than the industry average of 15x PE. As an example, UMW (another company with exposure to Perodua) is currently trading at a PE multiple of almost 20x.

Good luck.

A LOT OF CAPEX AT THE BINTAN RESORTS AND FOOT TRAFFIC IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO SUPPORT IT... GENTING BHD, GENTING MSIA AND SPORE SHOULD AGGRESSIVELY PROMOTE IT... LIKE NAGA WORLD IN CAMBODIA IS PROMOTING KARAMBUNAI RESORTS IN SABAH AGGRESSIVELY... I THINK IT BETTER TO GENTING BHD TO PRIVATIZE LANDMARKS...

MANY VALUABLE ASSETS INSIDE THE COMPANY :)



Landmarks Berhad was incorporated on 8 August 1989 and commenced operations as an investment holding company on 23 December 1989 with the takeover of the business, assets and liabilities of Landmarks Holdings Berhad, a company that was engaged in rubber, oil palm plantations, housing, hotels and commercial property development. It was subsequently listed on the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange on 8 January 1990 and continues to be listed under the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad under the hotel sector. The Company's segments include Hospitality and Wellness, and Resort and Destination Development.

Since then, the Landmarks Group expanded its business in the hospitality and property industry with the management of Carcosa Seri Negara; the development of Tiara Labuan, a 30-room business hotel in Labuan; The Datai, a 121-room super luxury hotel at Teluk Datai, Langkawi; and The Andaman, a 180-room luxury hotel, also at Teluk Datai, Langkawi. Landmarks Berhad had also participated in a joint venture to develop the new township of Cyberjaya through Setia Haruman Sdn Bhd. The Group was also involved as the developer of Bandar Baru Wangsa Maju through its equity interest in PGK Sdn Bhd, now known as MSL Properties Sdn Bhd.


Since 2006, the Group has re-positioned itself to focus on the lifestyle sector, focusing on resorts, hospitality and wellness in the South East Asian region. Resulting from this realignment, assets which are non-core and non-strategic have been disposed off and an investment has been made into a 338 hectare resort development land in Bintan island, Indonesia, known as Treasure Bay, Bintan. Treasure Bay is to be developed into a water resort city and a premier tourism destination.

In the course of her history, Landmarks has ventured into banking in South Africa and healthcare in Malaysia and Australia, businesses which have subsequently been disposed off. The Group has also invested into the infrastructure business by acquiring an interest in Teknologi Tenaga Perlis Consortium Sdn Bhd, an operator of a 650 MW power plant in Perlis, which was disposed off in 2009. In 2017, MSL which owns the Wangsa Walk Mall and some strategic development land surrounding the mall were disposed. The disposal has enabled the Group to increase its cash reserves for future capital expenditure and the Group’s working capital.

LANDMARKS BHD LEADS THE WAY FOR VISIT MALAYSIA YEAR 2020 IN THE LUXURY EXPERIENCE SEGMENT
Running successfully for the 3rd Edition, the Asia Pacific Travel and Tourism Federation (APTTF) this year was held at the Palace of the Golden Horses, Kuala Lumpur. Presented by VISA and Ministry of Tourism Malaysia, this year’s theme was focussed very much on Empowering The Malaysian Tourism Perspectives heading towards Visit Malaysia Year 2020.
Group Chief Operations Officer of Landmarks Bhd Mr C.K Fong said that Landmarks Bhd was certainly forward thinking since 2007, when The Group embarked on a restructuring. “The Group is focussed on leveraging on unique geographical and archaeological attributes of destinations, turning it into purpose driven holiday experiences. In Andaman we have leveraged on Rainforest, Coral (Sea) and Wellness to create a sustainable luxury market, incorporating CSR as part of the business model where our guests are involved in coral replanting. Above all, partnering with the government to market Langkawi as a wellness destination with world class products and services.

“That way we sell experiences, not rooms, value adding to the total guest experience when they stay with us” he added that according to Global Wellness Economy Monitor 2018, the average Wellness Traveler spends 58% higher than a regular tourist. He said The Group will continue selling unique memorable experience such as local indigenous culture, food, and traditional practices in V Integrated Wellness -The Group’s Wellness unit that won the “Best Experience” category.
“This is a Malaysian home-grown brand that has been acknowledged with International awards and even voted NO 1 in the world within the Marriott Luxury (MILUX) Brand Survey in 2018. V Integrated Wellness promotes local healing treatments with scientific technology to deliver results. In doing so we have also drawn attention to local practices such as Mak Andman, Bindan (wedding and postnatal care), local herbs benefits and other mystical healing scared sites in Langkawi as part of our offers” he said.
The brand is well received in Langkawi with Europeans, Australian and Singaporeans returning every year for a retreat. With much demand, we are now expanding with two more Spas to Bintan, Indonesia opening 1 May 2019 in our hotel The Canopi, a Tribute Portfolio Resort in Bintan, and another independent spa in Treasure Bay Bintan – The Groups flagship project.

IMPROVING THE NUMBERS

SEDIAKAN 200 KAMAR, PENGUNJUNG TREASURE BAY BINTAN MENCAPAI 180 RIBU ORANG TAHUN 2018
WARTAKEPRI.co.id, BINTAN – Objek wisata Treasure Bay yang ada di kawasan wisata Lagoi, Bintan masih menjadi objek wisata unggulan di Pulau Bintan bahkan di Kepri. Pada 2018 saja, resort yang dibangun dilahan seluas 338 hektar ini mampu menyedot wisatawan mencapai 180 ribu wisatawan asing dan wisatawan lokal.
Menurut CK Fong Presiden Direktur Treasure Bay, wisatawan lokal yang berkunjung ke Treasure Bay, tidak hanya dari wilayah kepri saja, namun banyak dari Jawa Barat, Jawa Timur dan sejumlah provinsi di Indonesia.
”Sekitar 25 persen dari pengunjung Treasure Bay ini merupkan wistawan asing. Jumlah kunjungan pada 2018, naik cukup signifikan dibanding tahun sebelumnya. Untuk satu kawasan wisata, pertumbuhan pengunjung Treasure Bay cukup fantastis, apalagi usia Treasure Bay ini baru 2015 lalu dibuka. Kami optimis angka kunjungan akan terus meningkat pada tahun ini dan tahun depan,” sebut CK Fong di sela-sela berkunjung ke Rumah Bahagia Lansia di Kelurahan Kawal, Bintan, Kamis (18/4/2019).
Saat ini, kata CK Fong, objek wisata Treasure Bay sudah dilengkapi dengan 200 kamar hotel. “Awalnya kita bangun 40 kamar dan hingga saat ini sudah 200 kamar yang
beroperasi. Sampai saat ini, nilai investasi kita untuk sektor witasa treasure bay sudah sekitar 50 juta Dolar Singapura (setara Rp519 miliar dengan kurs Rp10.380),” kata CK Fong di sela-sela penyerahan program CSR bersama komunitas CB motor.
Karena potensi wisata yang cukup baik, lanjut CK Fong, tahun ini kita akan bangun 200 kamar hotel lagi serta sarana pendukung lainnya dengan tambahan investasi 50 juta Dolar Singapura. “Target kita 200 kamar penambahan ini sudah beroperasi pada 2020 mendatang,” sebutnya.
Ketika disinggung tentang alasannya berinvestasi di Pulau Bintan, CK Fong menyebutkan, selain Bintan lokasinya sangat straregis karena berbatasan dengan sejumlah negara tetangga, juga proses perizinannya yang sederhana serta kondisi keamanannya yang cukup baik.
CK Fong juga menceritakan program pihak Treasure Bay terhadap masyarakat sekitar dan lingkungan yang sangat mendukung terhadap keberadaan Treasure Bay.
“Sebagai tanggungjawab kami membina lingkungan melalui Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), kami rutin melakukan penanaman mangrove bekerjasama dengan berbagai komunitas kepemudaan dan masyarakat setempat, serta membantu membagun sejumlah masjid sesuai dengan kebutuhan masyarakat. Dan sekarang, saya datang ke Rumah Bahagia Lansia ini bersama komunitas CB Motor. Program ini kami namai ride for life, untuk berbagi rasa dengan orang tua-orang tua kita yang tinggal di Rumah bahagia lansia ini,” ucap CK Fong.
Dalam kunjungan ke rumah bahagia itu, sejumlah petinggi Treasure Bay grub juga hadir. “Selain Treasure Bay, ada juga dari pihak pengelola Hotel The Canopi dan Diamont yang juga masih satu grub dengan Treasure Bay dan lokasi kami berdampingan di Kawasan Wisata Lagoi,” beber CK Fong.(*/smsikepri)

More to come , as per the recent quarterly report. :)


Prospects

The Andaman continues to show better performance. The Board expects The Andaman’s occupancy and room rate to further improve in 1st quarter of 2019 due to peak season.
The conversion and rebranding of The Canopi Bintan to a Tribute Portfolio resort managed by Marriott International was completed in January 2019. We expect The Canopi’s performance to improve in view of better room rates as a 5-Star resort.
Construction of another 100 Tents resort in TBB will be completed in 1st quarter of 2019. This event lead resort will bring a different glamping experience to our guests. We expect this unique concept resort will be a hit amongst the young millennia and is expected to start contributing to the Group’s revenue in 2nd quarter of 2019.
Thorough planning and evaluation of market economics has led to the Board’s decision to reposition the business model of the Chiva-Som Bintan development. In view of the current market conditions, the Board strategically believes that embarking on the resort hotel & wellness facility first, would enhance the potential development value of the villa residences.

Gaming license a possible future wildcard - Last but not least, Landmark, a 30%-Genting Bhd owned company, could potentially opened the first casino in TBB. In 2008, Landmark has received consent from Indonesia authority to operate gaming business in TBB. However, there are no much development after that and starting a gaming business in a country that do not have casino before can be challenging from politic and social point-of-view. Hence, it is safer not to incorporate this development into the valuation, but it can be a wildcard in the future.


Genting Bhd has on 2008 acquired 30% share in Landmark Bhd at share price of around RM2.00 per share and has since become the largest shareholder of the company.



The Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal was built in 1995. In 2007 the terminal underwent a S$3 million renovation to improve the space to better serve its passengers and customers. Currently 4 berths serve regional ferries that travel to destinations to the South and East of Singapore, including:

KUALA LUMPUR(May 24): Loss-making hospitality and property company Landmarks Bhd hopes to turn profitable by its financial year ending Dec 31, 2018 (FY18), according to its chief executive officer Mark Wee Liang Yee.

"We are aiming [for our earnings] to break even by the end of FY 17, and then to have recurring income to bring us back into the black by FY 18," Wee said after the group's annual general meeting today.



Wee said that the company's turnaround is expected to be driven by recurring revenue from its Treasure Bay Bintan development in Bintan, Indonesia, a 338 hectare (ha) plot of land, to which he says the group plans to add hotels and attraction sites.



"Currently, we have only one resort on the Treasure Bintang development called the Canopi Resort, which has100 tented glamorous camping suites, but [we plan to add further resorts in the future]," he says but declined to reveal the how many additions there will be.



Wee added that the infrastructure of Phase 1 of the 850-acre development has already been completed, and the group has thus far seen a 15% contribution from Treasure Bay to its overall revenue, since 2016.



There will be more phases of development moving forward, however Wee said that these are still in planning stages as the size of the land area is large.



The Treasure Bintang development was officially completed and launched in 2015.



Landmarks Bhd is a 30.3% associate of Genting Bhd.

Landmarks upbeat on RM2b Bintan project
Friday, March 31st, 2017 at , Business | Corporate Malaysia

Landmarks Bhd has embarked on Phase 1 and Phase 2 of its RM2 billion Treasure Bay Bintan project with plans to open its iconic 800m long crystal water lagoon by June and begin the construction of at least two hotels surrounding the lagoon by year-end.

Landmarks COO Fong Chee Khuen said the group plans to have eight to nine hotels surrounding the lagoon covering some 15 acres (6.07ha) and almost 80% of Phase 1 of the project has been earmarked.

“We plan to launch two hotels by year-end. The design is almost done, we are just left with detailed engineering drawing, then we can go for tender.

“The infrastructure surrounding the Phase 1 development is already there. We expect to complete the construction of the proposed two hotels within two years,” said Fong.

Interest in the proposed project has been encouraging.

Fong said Landmarks has already signed up with Mercure, Ibis, Canyon Ranch and Chiva’som for Phase 1 of the project and is in discussion with another five international brands, with two to three of the discussions in advanced stage.

The hotels could be jointly developed by Landmarks with its promoters while the proposed “Canyon Ranch” development in Phase 1 will be developed and then sold to the Canyon Ranch group, according to Fong.

Covering some 338ha, the Treasure Bay Bintan project in Indonesia will draw on the concept of wellness, culture and leisure (preventive healthcare themes) with its masterplan integrating tourism, wellness, culture, leisure, residential and commercial real estates.

Phase 2 of the project development will draw on the wellness themes and is set to be launched soon while Phase 3 will be a town centre to support the scale of the hospitality development activities across the project.

Fong said Landmarks has invested about RM800 million on the development of the project so far and the land value has appreciated significantly over the years with the development of Bintan.

“We bought the land at around S$22 per sq ft in 2008. Now looking at the competitors, their properties are being sold at the price exceeding S$500 (RM1,348) sq ft.

“Bintan is starting to enjoy this kind of pricing. Buyers are purchasing the surrounding land and waiting.

“The land cost is only 10% to 20% of the total gross development value (GDV) while construction cost is manageable. Those who come in early can later enjoy double-digit return on investment. The capital appreciation is good,” said Fong.

Of the RM800 million invested so far, about RM700 million was for the land while the remaining is for the lagoon and required infrastructure.

Fong said access to the island is set to improve with the construction of a new airport by 2017. The island already has ferry services connecting to Singapore and an airport catering for domestic flights.

From a financial perspective, Landmarks is cash-rich but its profit and loss statement is still lacking.

For fourth-quarter ending 2014, the company posted a net profit of RM8.2 million from a revenue of RM12.5 million but for the full financial year, it remained in the red with a net loss of RM5.3 million on revenue of RM53.6 million.

Nonetheless, Fong expects the company, which is substantially owned by Genting Bhd, to post a more sustainable turnaround by financial year ending 2016 (FY16).

The Bintan development was funded by cash mainly generated from the RM1.2 billion gains from the disposal of some assets such as Teknologi Tenaga Perlis Sdn Bhd and Datai Langkawi.

Landmarks also has RM468.79 million of deferred tax liabilities that were allocated for future tax exposure but could now be claimed back as the transaction tax rates in Indonesia have been declining.

The company will not be doing any further divestments in Malaysia nor does it plan to embark on anything new at the moment, added Fong.

“In Malaysia, we will keep it as it is first. If the project in Bintan runs smoothly, we can always come back to Malaysia. There’s still a lot of potential here,” said Fong.

Fong said Landmarks’ focus at the moment remains very much on the Treasure Bay project which will be targeting inbound tourists from the region, where incomes are rising, including potential referrals from the Genting group.

The group has no plans to venture further out of the region, said Fong.

Landmarks’ ventures in Malaysia now include the Andaman Langkawi resort, a 20% stake in Wangsa Walk Mall and another 18% stake in Eastern & Oriental Express Sdn Bhd. The company does not have any plan to divest its interests but if the price is right, the company may consider offers, said Fong.

Landmarks still has 7ha of land surrounding Andaman Langkawi, which the company will be developing but this is still in the planning stage, according to Fong.

Landmarks Bhd is very likely to be privatized.. excluding the Bintan island resort with rm2bil+ assets, it made more than rm10mil+. Relist landmarks Bhd excluding the bintan resorts with pe 15, already around rm200mil enough for privatization now.. get free bintan island resorts with assets worth rm2bil+

Another gem inside landmarks Bhd is in langkawi :)

Landmark (1643), The Andaman

Taken from AR2017:

At the same time, we will review the overall development plan on the remaining approximately 7 hectares in our property in Langkawi, Malaysia.

As approximately 80% of The Andaman’s guests are foreign, who travel to Langkawi by flight, the timely announcement of the upgrading of the Langkawi International Airport augurs well for improving the comfort and arrivals of our guests. The weaker Ringgit will be an opportunity for The Andaman to enhance its pricing strategy further.

-A+A
KUALA LUMPUR (April 26): Yee Lee Corp Bhd will be taken private by its founder and executive chairman Datuk Lim A Heng @ Lim Kok Cheong as well as its other shareholders.

According to a bourse filing today, A Heng, his wife Datin Chua Shok Tim @ Chua Siok Hoon, the couple's son and group managing director Lim Ee Young and holding company Langit Makmur Sdn Bhd, which is owned by Dymon Asia Private Equity (S.E Asia) Fund II Pte Ltd, are to purchase the remaining 79.69 million shares or 41.59% they do not control in the group for a cash offer of RM2.33 per share.

This represents a premium of 39 sen or 20.1% from the counter's last trading price of RM1.94.

On Feb 27, the group proposed a first and final dividend of 4 sen per share, subject to shareholders' approval at its annual general meeting.

Shareholders whose names appear in the record of depositors will be entitled to the dividend and will be given an adjusted offer price of RM2.29 per share, while shareholders whose names are not in the record will not be entitled to the dividend and will receive an offer price of RM2.33 per share.

As it stands, Chua, A Heng and Ee Young control 111.91 million shares or 58.41% of the group's shareholdings, while Langit Makmur does not hold any Yee Lee shares.

Chua, A Heng and Ee Young are represented through Yee Lee Organisation Sdn Bhd (YLO), which is an investment holding company trading in palm oil products.

A Heng maintains a 74.88% indirect interest in YLO and 0.03% direct interest. Meanwhile, Chua maintains a 71.18% indirect interest and a 2.5% direct interest in YLO.

UOB Kay Hian Securities (M) Sdn Bhd is the undertaker for the takeover.

After the takeover, Yee Lee will not maintain its listing on Bursa Malaysia if the group does not meet Bursa's minimum 25% public spread of shares in listed companies.

"As such the joint offerors will not be taking any steps to address any shortfall in the public shareholding spread of Yee Lee in the event Yee Lee does not meet the Public Spread Requirement after the closing date," said UOB Kay Hian in a circular on the takeover.

The offer will last for 21 days from today and is subject to comments from the Securities Commission Malaysia and approval and consent from relevant parties if required.

Trading in Yee Lee shares is suspended from 2:30pm to 5:00pm today. The counter last traded at RM1.94, giving it a market capitalisation of RM371.71 million.

Landmark Bhd had gone through a turbulent time .

129055444514385 had done a good write up about the company since 2007/8 when Genting came in to buy up 30% of the company with an awerage price of rm 2.00 though the highest last purchase from the open market was rm 2.99.

Thank you for your information.
You hawe done a good study of the company ...................

It had been a more colorful and ewentful time how the price shot up from about rm 0.50 to about rm 3.00 prior to 2008.

The inwestors, including Genting Group ,who bought at around rm 3.00 then were sitting on a paper loss of around 80 % now.

All these were history.

Hope that the management who knew about all the full history will work hard to propell the company forward to a greater height to help all the inwestors recoup their inwestment.

MBO or Priwatisation by Genting is a distant dream.
