It's obvious from long term price charts, that this is a cylical stock. Every 4-5 years, we can reasonably expect to see a "cycle" low and it's now around this time +/- 1 year or so.

Long term Position traders patient enough to hold anywhere from 6 months to 4 years will be keen to get something as part of a highly diversified portfolio. No need to read annual reports, quarterly reports, news or anything. This is a large cap stock with market cap of RM42 billion and is owned by respectable funds and institutional investors.

The long term strategy is simple. From 5.30 down to 4.30, just split your bullets and buy as price keeps going down. Let Mr Market decides how much profit you will get and not you. If 50 stocks, neutral is 2% capital, target 1% to 3% capital and let Mr Market decide how much between 1% to 3% capital to give you.

There is no need to monitor the prices daily or even weekly. Just once a month is enough. Once you have a position, and prices starts to recover, just key in target sell prices, also in bullets and update once a month.

This should meet my minimum target of 9% per annum over the next 4-5 years, with very high odds. Maybe even double or quadruple depending on the recovery. Again, let Mr Market decides the returns you'll get.

Never force the trade. Never force the returns. Just relax and enjoy life outside Bursa.

We'll come back and review this recommendation in 4 years time.

Second quarter 2024 earnings released: EPS: RM0.097 (vs RM0.079 in 2Q 2023)

Second quarter 2024 results:
EPS: RM0.097 (up from RM0.079 in 2Q 2023).
Revenue: RM7.73b (up 8.6% from 2Q 2023).
Net income: RM777.0m (up 24% from 2Q 2023).
Profit margin: 10% (up from 8.8% in 2Q 2023). The increase in margin was driven by higher revenue.

Revenue is forecast to grow 5.9% p.a. on average during the next 3 years, compared to a 6.4% growth forecast for the Chemicals industry in Malaysia.

Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 39% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 11% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings.

Outlook On Petronas Chemicals Remains Gloomy After Further Declines In Q2 🙁

Looking forward for better result for next Quarter.

Posted by Sslee > 2024-08-20 09:54 | Report Abuse

The decrease in profitability is partly attributed to sluggish polymer prices and weak product spreads. Polymer prices for HDPE, LDPE, and LLDPE remained flat during the third quarter to date, mirroring the trends observed in 2Q24. Additionally, the prices for urea and methanol showed minimal change, ranging from 0% to -3%. These trends suggest that the third quarter could also be disappointing, as product spreads continue to struggle.

PCG is aiming for the commercial operations date (COD) of its Pengerang facility in 3Q24. This development is expected to significantly impact the company’s financials, with anticipated annual depreciation and interest expenses of RM400 million and RM200 million respectively. The Pengerang Complex, a 50% joint venture unit, is currently operating at an EBITDA loss due to thin polymer-naphtha spreads, which are less than USD350 per metric tonne. This unit is projected to remain loss-making for the next three years, making the COD a key de-rating factor for the company.

Despite these challenges, analyst maintains a SELL rating on Petronas Chemicals with a revised target price of RM4.18, down from the previous RM5.05. The target price reduction reflects a lower target price-to-earnings ratio (PER) of 15x, adjusting to -0.5 standard deviation from the company’s seven-year average. The gloomy outlook for polymer prices and the challenging operational environment have prompted this cautious stance.

Looking forward for better result for next Quarter

By what is planned for major plant turn-around, Pengerang complex full operation 3QCY24 and forward products price outlook will next 2 quarters be a better result??

The key takeaways from PCHEM’s analyst briefing are as follows:

1. The ASEAN Bintulu fertiliser plant went offline unexpectedly in May 2024, but had since returned to normal operations. The group is planning a major plant turn-around for this facility in 4QCY24.

2. The PC Ethylene and Polyethylene Kertih plants will undergo statutory turnaround in 3QFY24, which will affect plant utilisation for the O&D division.

3. The Pengerang complex, co-owned by PCHEM and Saudi Aramco, is targeted to achieve full operations by 3QCY24. This could negatively impact the group’s bottom line as it will begin recognising finance and depreciation costs.

First half dividend of RM0.10 announced
Shareholders will receive a dividend of RM0.10.
Ex-date: 30th August 2024
Payment date: 12th September 2024
Dividend yield will be 2.7%, which is lower than the industry average of 3.2%.
Sustainability & Growth

Dividend is covered by both earnings (61% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (46% cash payout ratio).
The dividend has decreased over the past 10 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments.
EPS is expected to grow by 55% over the next 3 years, which should provide support to the dividend and adequate earnings cover.
