Missed the boat to sell more today. Lucky to have sold alot yesterday at 1.20. Now still having alot of bullets to buy if the price is pushed down. Just stay sideways and see how the game is played.

hi everyone, I have been following this site for years but this is the first time I comment. I noticed every time when they want to announce their quarterly results, the price will go up and down like roller coaster - why? Is this the way ikan yu traps the smaller fish?

Well valuation has to come from demonstrated results and prospects comes from track records in construction companies.

If one is to wait till all projects are clinched and signed, then it is the time to sell not buy because the price will have already reflected the prospects.

Indeed unbiased thinking is one of the essentials in thinking through the decision, but one must also know what is the business worth(it doesn't have to be exact).

Everyone is saying GKENT is left with water meter business only(highly unlikely), and the company will languish down to 10 - 20 cents. But what is the true business valuation of the meter business? nobody attempts to find out, they just pluck some convenient numbers and paste it in their head.

It is common practice among project based companies to have good rapport with the customers, it is just one of the ways to market yourself, and people start to politicized the relationship.

Incidentally, this forum is exactly the wrong place to be learning investing. Too much noise and too little wisdom.

Gkent focus on potential jobs includes regional rail-related opportunities, and GKent is studying possibilities to participate in Singapore’s rail-related job bidding.

We opine that the company will face an uphill battle as bidding for Singapore mass rapid transit jobs is very competitive in Singapore. On the domestic front, near-term opportunities for GKent include water treatment plant jobs (RM100 million to RM200 million) and the second phase of the Klang Valley double track project (RM5 billion) where we understand that the company is looking for a JV partner to participate in the tender.

Johor Sultan team up with VT to goreng. Results play still have 50% upside. If they put in Umobile for backdoor listing play, sky is the limit.

https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/george-kent-seen-promote-smart-metering-state-govts

George Kent seen to promote smart metering to state govts
The management is excited about its metering division as they are doubling their effort in promoting their smart metering solutions to various state governments and countries within the South-East Asia region. Its smart meters are an add-on to existing meters that offer fixed network reading or mobile network reading, which allows water players to bill customers effortlessly. While it is still at the pilot stage, as they are working with mobile operators in testing the transmission of data, we believe that should it take off, it would be a strong growth factor for its metering division. We anticipate the smart meters could potentially grow its metering revenue by a minimum of 50%, should GKENT is able to package its smart meters together with its existing products.

George Kent (Malaysia) Bhd (GKent) management has indicated that its current core focus would be on the delivery of Light Rail Transit Line 3 (LRT3) and its existing ongoing projects — LRT2, Mass Rapid Transit 2 and public hospitals with an estimated outstanding order book of RM5.4 billion. Hence, the management is not looking to participate aggressively in other jobs in the near term.

While its current progress is still at about 10%, management remains optimistic about meeting the construction timeline as it has been rescheduled to 2024. Currently, the management is expecting the redesign of the project to be completed by the second half of calander year 2019 (2H19) and hopes to progress to full swing as its subcontractor would be able to proceed with work on stations upon receiving the final designs. That said, now that GKENT-MRCB JV is no longer the project delivery partner(PDP) but the main contractor of LRT3, they are working closely with banks to secure financing for the working capital needs for LRT3. We are confident that they will be able to secure the financing given that both GKENT and MRCB’s balance sheets remain healthy, which GKENT is in net cash position while MRCB is lowly geared at 0.2 time.

We are keeping our FY19E core net profit (CNP) of RM75 million as we believe that GKENT will meet our expectations as they tend to perform stronger in the fourth quarter. No changes to our FY20E (estimate) CNP of RM82 million for now.

Trade cautiously in any counters guys. Dont simply buy and gamble away hard earned money.

Most importantly, dont get over influenced by the analysis carried out by Jaya. Jaya has been good at spreading fake news and twisting stories as a means of getting people to buy into a particular counter just because his holding it.

I3 has just banned him for about a week but his dupe accounts are still running aimlessly in this forum

I invested in Gkent because the dividend % is higher than bank FD and EPF. One thing for sure is company won't close down.

gkent is in harvesting period with little catayst for growth. But the good news is that their returns is above 8% which is far better than any bank. While in terms of growth may not be as strong for now but because it is undervalue, this is one stock you can buy and keep for at least a year. In short, if you don't buy the pappadoms, someone else will.

My opinion is Gkent is of the a good company which was fortunately prices drove down due to political nonsense. They are cash rich and therefore has means to increase their capex in areas like engineering sector to bring the company to greater growth.
