Where is all the people who were asking us to buy buy and saying a dividend of 47cents will be given BUT we got 29cents. I sent a email to CHINTEK asking is true that they plan to unlock land value near SENDAYAN. Already 6 days but no reply. Only now i realize that these crooks wanted to throw their shares bought cheaply and disposed to us at a high price. Karma will hit these crooks very very hard. No worries as we have God to protect us. Cheers.
Chin Teck – an irrational market? Over the past decade the market has not always been rational as can been seen from the comparison between the ROE and market price. You can see that in 2018 when the ROE was at its high, the market price continued with its downtrend. The current ROE is lower than the 2022 peak. While the market price had declined, it has not reached the 2019 lows. https://i.postimg.cc/50NzFvx0/ChinTek.png From a fundamental perspective, Chin Teck performance lies in between my 2 Bursa plantation references – BPlant and KLK. I would not rate its fundamentals as fantastic. So, not so fantastic fundamentals and a harder to read market behaviour. Is this an investment opportunity?

KUALA LUMPUR (Mar 25): Given the steep discount to its underlying value, oil palm planter Chin Teck Plantations Bhd may stand to be privatised in the future, according to PublicInvest Research.
In a research note on Monday, PublicInvest Research said the group is currently trading at an undemanding valuation of only 2.6 times historical price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio multiple or discounted price-to-book (P/B) ratio of 0.79 times, based on its financial results for the financial year 2023 (FY23).
Furthermore, the plantation group was also noted to be sitting on a cash position of RM408 million with zero gearing. It also owns investment securities worth RM132 million.
"Assuming our current valuation of 11 times FY25 EPS (earnings per share) for the upstream plantation business plus the liquid assets (cash + investment securities for bond and equity instruments) totalling RM540 million, the fair value of the company could be worth more than RM900 million or RM9.84 per share," it said.
"Given steep discount to its underlying value, we do not rule out the possibility of privatisation in the future," the research house added
KUALA LUMPUR (April 25): Chin Teck Plantations Bhd’s net profit surged sevenfold for the financial quarter ended Feb 29, 2024 (2QFY2024) thanks to higher palm oil production as well as lower operating and administrative expenses.
Net profit leapt by 612.2% to RM20.8 million from RM2.92 million a year earlier. Quarterly revenue increased by 11.1% year-on-year (y-o-y) to RM51.26 million from RM46.14 million, thanks to increased sales volume of fresh fruit bunches (FFB), crude palm oil (CPO) and palm kernels (PK).

Stripping out i) foreign exchange gain (RM2.9m) and ii) net fair value gain on investment securities (RM3m), Chin Teck Plantations posted 1HFY24 core earnings of RM36.3m, up 12.7% YoY. The better results were in line with our and the street full-year expectations, making up 46% and 56%, respectively. In view of the stronger-than-expected results, we raise our FY24-26F earnings projection by 7-8% to account for improved OER and lower production cost. Maintain Neutral with a higher TP of RM8.38. No dividend was declared for the quarter.
KUALA LUMPUR: Chin Teck Plantations Bhd is projected to achieve commendable results for its financial year 2024 (FY24), due to the stronger-than-anticipated fresh fruit bunches (FFB) growth in the first nine months and stable crude palm oil (CPO) prices.
Public Investment Bank Bhd (PublicInvest) said the FFB production rose by 19.9 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to 177,967 metric tons in the first nine months, surpassing its projection of 5 per cent.
"In the third quarter (3Q), FFB production surged by 59.8 per cent YoY to 60,693 metric tons, while the average CPO price increased from RM4,044 per metric ton to RM4,128 per metric ton.
"Given the improved FFB production and CPO prices, we anticipate stronger earnings for the third quarter of the of the financial year 2024 (3QFY24) (March 2024–May 2024), with results expected to be released by the end of July," it said.
Additionally, the bank-backed research firm noted that, with a substantial cash reserve of over RM400 million, Chin Teck is well-positioned to explore merger and acquisition (M&A) opportunities to expand its landbank in its current plantation areas.
On the potential privatisation of the company, PublicInvest said it cannot be ruled out given the significant discount to its underlying value, as the company's price-to-earnings P/E ratio stands at only 2x after accounting for its cash holdings of RM409 million and investment securities of RM140 million.
"In our March 25, 2024 report, we highlighted the potential for privatisation due to the significant discount to the company's underlying value, with the fair value estimated at over RM900 million, or RM9.84 per share.
"At the current share price, the Goh family would need approximately RM150–200 million to privatise the group, which holds a cash reserve of RM409 million," it said.
PublicInvest has maintained a 'neutral' rating for Chin Teck with an unchanged target price of RM8.38.
