quarter ended 30 June 2018. This is mainly due to a delay in product shipments to customers with sales value of approximately RM 2.2 million as a result of labour shortages in the Dongguan, China manufacturing plant. The Group has addressed the labour shortage by taking the approved steps to relocate the majority of its manufacturing operation in Dongguan to a newly incorporated subsidiary in Wuning, China where stable workforce is more easily achieved.
This is the typical mountain stock. Climb high to peak and drop back to base. 95% of small cap company listed on bursa has this type of characteristic. So if you bought half way down thinking its a bargain, prepare to get whacked
From 4.90 to 0.77 how crazy!! That's the problem, nobody complain when price shoot up from 0.30 in 2013 to 4.50 (adjusted). Only screaming when its going down. BTW 0.77 is not the base yet, 0.30 is.
i only buy small qty bet on their profit but seems not a correct decision.. the mgmt made mistake on 1st relocation and then has to redo to new place.. hopefully it has settle down with the new place and start to focus on their sales
however led market is getting tougher due to competition so it has to work harder to position its product
FA wise, mgmt good manage its finance since it has no debt.. cash still available and book value discount almost 50%.. it must start to profit next qtr if not more selling will happen
How many percent of Sales to US? If just a small percent should be an issue. But shifting factory to China to cut cost is a short term measure, management need to think long term.
IQ managed by poor excecutives,during the hot of China-US trade war -they transfer all their US market products to china factory, so IQ "enjoy" 25% tax now. Due to transfer majority of Penang products to Dongguang factory - they short of workers - so they transfer again to Wuxi and they used this transfer process as excuse for lossing money.Now they plan to build US market products at their Penang factory-back to square one ! They are burning their cash on this stupid transfer process.
This is what IQ group management reply me , if u go through their quarterly report , they already transfer majority of their production to China about 2 year ago, but they still maintain operation of their penang plant ,that means the plant utilization is very low and did not make sense in term of financial, the overhead cost is still there , and the cost per product will be very high. I send a query to ask about this,based on their reply I think IQ management are not capable and their decision making is not logical,I immediately cut lost at about RM 1 , i'm really lucky ,IQ report further lost and became penny stock now. If u are IQ share holder you can send a query and see what they reply.
