Encouraging results … actually , I was expecting a 10 Sen dividend so 15 is a nice surprise. This share is still cheap considering a couple of years ago it went as high as 6.15 - I’ll use the div to buy more.
CPO is over $4,000 again ! Without extraordinary losses, predominantly upstream plantation should do very well this year . I am back to plantation in a big way …
Ta Ann is a Bursa Malaysia timber cum plantation company. Since Oct last year, its price had gone from about RM 3.30 per share to as high as RM 4.30 per share. Today it is down to RM 3.80 per share. Does this represent an investment opportunity?
I would consider Ta Ann a wonderful company in the Buffett sense. There were topline and bottom-line growths. It had diversified into the plantation sector delivered a big part of the growth.
The are signs of improving operating efficiencies as exemplified by the gross profitability, asset turnover, and leverage. It is financially sound and had been able to create shareholders’ value. https://i.postimg.cc/L4zhzgkD/Chart-6.png My valuation as shown in the Chart shows that there is more than 30% margin of safety. Surely Ta Ann cannot be a value trap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5J2ZJkqKHw
RISE OF DIESEL PRICE BY 52% CAUSED PROPERTY, CONSTRUCTION AND OTHERS CUT INTO THEIR PROFITS, BETTER BUY EAST MALAYSIA OIL PALM STOCKS DUE TO NO DIESEL PRICE SPIKE, Calvin Tan
Net profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 (2QFY2024) was RM48.71 million or 11.06 sen per share, compared to RM42.98 million or 9.76 sen per share in the same period a year earlier.
With drier weather conditions since July, Ta Ann Holdings reported significant improvements in its timber sector, with increased production volumes of logs and plywood. However, the group anticipates that timber product prices will continue to yield only modest profit margins. The group’s palm oil production is on an uptrend coming into the second half of the year, with the fresh fruit bunch production cycle reaching its peak. “With anticipation of tight supplies of vegetable crops due to dry weather in the Black Sea region as well as higher consumption of biofuels in diesel in Indonesia, crude palm oil price is expected to hover only at current level in the second half of the year,” the group said.
Public Investment maintained an “outperform” call with a revised target price of RM4.88 on Ta Ann
CGS International maintained an “add” rating with an unchanged target price of RM5.50, highlighting Ta Ann’s strong balance sheet and attractive dividend yields.
CIMB Securities maintained its “buy” call on Ta Ann with an unchanged target price of RM4.60, citing the stock’s attractive 6%-8% dividend yield.
All three research houses remain positive on Ta Ann’s long-term prospects, driven by strong performance in the plantation segment and potential recovery in timber production starting from July. They also like the stock’s attractive dividend yield and potential for unlocking value. They also noted the higher payout ratio as another key positive factor.
TAANN has been good and I think is still a very decent business on the verge of breakout. However, I am committed to divesting 40% of my local Bursa position from now till FYE 2025. It's a tough choice, but thank-you TAANN!
Indonesia to implement B40 palm oil biodiesel on Jan 1, 2025, official says
JAKARTA: Indonesia plans to implement biodiesel containing a mandatory 40% blend of palm oil-based fuel from Jan. 1 next year, senior energy ministry official Eniya Listiani Dewi said on Thursday.
Indonesia currently has a 35% mandatory blend for palm oil-based biodiesel, known as B35.
The government had previously flagged a plan to increase the biodiesel blend to 40% next year, without specifying a start date.
"There is no issue in terms of supply volume and other aspects, so we are ready for a mandatory (implementation)," Eniya told Reuters.
When implemented, the B40 mandate could increase biodiesel consumption to up to 16 million kilolitres (KL) next year from a forecast of 13 million KL this year, the energy ministry has estimated. - Reuters
油世界预计2024/25年度全球植物油供需紧张,价格看涨 "industrial magazine ,Oil World ,expects a tight global supply-demand balance for vegetable oils in the 2024/25 season, with prices likely to rise." 马来西亚棕榈油出口关税将从近期的8%提升至10%,关税的提高将进一步增加入口国棕榈油的进口成本
"Malaysia's palm oil export tax will increase from the recent rate of 8% to 10%. This tax hike will further raise the import costs of palm oil for importing countries."
please use CHATGPT to do any translation, very accurate
Enning, present Indonesia stock is 2.5 million tons. 2025 from B35 to B40 will use up 3m tonnes. With no increase in production, end 2025 stocks will be zero! Is this the main reason cpo prices shooting through the roof?
Oil World ,expects a tight global supply-demand balance. in particular , other oils ,like sunflower oil ,rapeseed oil also low in supply. --end 2025 stocks will not be zero! . with high price in place ,demand will switch to other oil , like soyabean oil .
