I like what the company does and will hold for at least another 2 quarters to confirm whether the company is turning around. I 100% agree that a cash pay out is a confidence booster to the investors but IF the 'promised' payout is not announced by end of this month, the management's credibility will be questioned by many. I think the management is well aware of that.
Good. Can share how many years u intend to stay invested with the company? By the way, "as long as PMC is managed professional" is a very serious words. Can they? Can they explain why cfo "resigned" at the last minute? Cfo is someone deal with financial, another word is money, true? Cfo is professional position and the person has a license governed under a professional body. Once u lost your professional license due to integrity issue, there goes his or her livelihood. On the other hand, directorship is not a professional position.
Kukuman, I also like the way you had brought investment in a different dimensional view on controlling shareholders as understandably so this view was honed by your years of investment experience more of bad experience rather than good.. and to do due diligence on whether these controlling shareholders does add value to minority shareholders
For PMC..at the moment it seems to be professionally managed and I will be monitoring its Q4 2013 operational performance due to be released in Feb/March 2014..
Based on the results in Feb/march 2014 I will then decide what to do... my take now is PMC has a very good business model that can generate good profits, good revenue growth and good cash-flows and later on good dividend pay-out...cash pay-out will be a good booster to minority shareholders as PMC does not really need so much cash now i.e RM 100 million. It's quarterly turnover is about RM 18 million...Assuming that revenue increase by +30% in 2014, Revenue for 2014 = RM 93.6 million and it will require at most 33 million for working capital...I personally think +30% revenue growth is LOW BALLING as it has good tasting products with appealing packaging.....PMC has only to REVIEW and RETOOL its MARKETING MIX....I wont be surprised that PMC can indeed generate more than +50% increase in Revenue for 2014...what will be the profits and EPS then???...I don't know what will be the investment amount in new capacity build up be say another 15 million...that means it need cash of say 48 or 50 million and that is rather conservative figure. Cash in bank is now say RM 100 million. So it can give out cash pay-out of RM 50 million to MUIIND and MINORITY SHAREHOLDERS without impairing its business operation at all.
With adequate cash to fund working capital and to invest in new production facilities and rewarding talents for good performance , PMC if professionally managed will be a good long term investment stock...
Your name doesn't sound nice. Anyway, people here are very gracious and tolerant.

Humbled. Yes i am confident with the company. But i am also a swing trader. I keep my portfolio balance. 60% long term and 40% short term. Profit made on pmcorp will be reinvested on pmcorp. Infact i have increased my long term holding for pmcorp to 80%. That why i need both people like mikekong and calvin to give ideas and suggestion. No doubt pmcoro balance sheet is so strong and i dont think it will go below 20 sen as many investor will start collecting the shares. Yesterday it was down probably due to the resignation of the fco. As usual there will be panic selling in a day after as we can see price dropped to 23.5 sen today. I believe it will rebound from here. If it is down is ok i can collect more. Pmcorp is not tin kosong. Just wait for this quarter results. If think it will be good then collect now. If the results are expected to be bad. Quit now. Personally it is worth more than 30 sen. Risk is low.
What you want to know is also what I want to know lah. I think he is coming to Singapore for holiday with his family soon, you know? Only then can I share mah!

The above 2 statements made real sense and this is the concern of many who bought above 0.28 cts ! Personally, I doubt this ' promised ' payout will materialise as what I read through over 7k messages in this PMC thread and the untimely resignation of CFO Mr Ho ! It looks like what the chinese saying : 江山易改, 本性離移 meaning literally one can move a mountain but not the character is happening here ! Look at the ongoing down 0.005 to 0.010 cts daily, heart must get ready to see the original start moving price soon ? Hope my worry will not come true ? God bless ....
Aiya calvin san, sms him or call him la. sure he will share with you. After all, you still need to fix date, time and venue for the chit chat session in S'pore.
PMCorp is about value play or if you lose, value trap. Hence, the only question is whether KKP will distribute any cash to minority shareholders or he will continue transferring money out to his other companies. The key is that the choice is his, not yours. Based on his philosophy and past records, he is unlikely to make meaningful captial repayment.
Lets say the chocolate biz and investment makes some money and NTA grows to RM1 in 10 years time and has a change of heart and decides to give minority shareholders RM0.50 as dividend or capital distribution 10 years from now. With rather benign investment environment now, we may assume required rate of return on equity at a low 10%, 50sen 10 years from now is worth 19.3sen in today's money.
In that sense, PMCorp is rather fairly or over-priced.
