If not because of slightly lower sales volume (CNY i guess) and the "Provision for estimated arbitration legal fees"....the earning would have match the last quarter i guess..he he..
chinese new year, all construction companies slow down and close for at least one week. This QR simply beyond expectation. SS now back to the glory of old day.
Declaration of dividend will be part of the sign of the return of Ssteel. Last quarter many holidays and some construction companies are waiting for cancellation of steel protection, this result consider very good.
Not bad result, even got dividend ! Juicy......... ! With extension of the safeguard duties, look like this high level earning may sustain for quite some time .... Geng !
there's no way Danieli can argue to claim $$ for the Spare Parts which they have delivered. This is because when one had failed to deliver the performance of the major equipment, all the spare parts has lost its value...it has lost its use.
worst come worst southern steel will just return it (the Parts - not the $$!) back to Danieli. Its as simple as that.
if i were southern steel...i will insist Danieli to rectify the main equipment and prove its performance first before i transfer them a single penny more.
The most mind boggling fact is that its current EPS was a result of its Gross profit margin barely higher than the duty level of 13.5%...(that is the safeguard margin! - the bare minimum one can expect).
Thus, dont think it will be difficult to maintain an average of 20% GPM level going forward for the next 3 years... 20% GPM = 13% Net profit margin. Current Net profit margin is ~5%.
5% to 13% Net Margin, that is a whopping 140% increase from its current bottom line (EPS of 8 currently will shoot to 20 cents).
that time all the dilution effects will vaporize...
1) Interim Dividend -- That mean next quarter still got another final dividend. For institutution investor, dividend is always the key factor for them to decide whether to invest on the stock or not. They don't mind the stock price cannot go up, but they are more concern whether the stock got dividend or not. Because dividend payment can be utilised to cover their operation cost.
2) Miti Safeguard - As all the industry player aware, many buyer has reduced their stock order significantly on Mar'17, betting on MITI to remove the safeguard. Unfortunately, MITI has extended the safeguard for another 3 years. Once the news come out, many buyer immediately place their order in double quantity to fill up their stock. This huge order will be reflected in next quarter, so very high chances next quarter SSTEEL can achieve RM900mil sales.
RM strengthening means can import raw materials like iron ore, coal, coke and steel scrap with cheaper price. Even selling price remain, the materials cost will reduce while gross profit increase again,
@leoting well said, now is the import counter play, almost all of SS raw mat are import, I believe SS can achieve 60 millions next quarter, better than Annjoo
Want to thank leoting, Albukhary, money, probability and MrPauper sifu's. it was your posts and sharing that gave me so much insights and confidence. I never had a single doubt in this ssteel. Thank you guys.
Total EPS for recent 4 quarters still negative, next quarter as it changes to positive & there is final dividends, share price will be expected raise more...So, I choose to hold it for long term.
Abangadik. Probability, Ks5s, leoting, Albukhary, maneysifu are the strong supporters of SSteel. I appreciate them providing us updated input for us to make a better decision. :)
local fund still cannot buy SS yet, because total 4 quarter result still making loss, what the stupid role. currently is BIG fish buying, after next quarter profit, local fund only jump in, and you will see many bank will rate and give target price. refer to all HongLeong company, All P/E is more than 10 at least.

Ssteel has the potential to pay 6 cents dividends or DY 4%. Let's make a conservation estimation of generating EPS 20 cents per share in a year, the company will be trading at PER 7.8x at current price. At such low multiple PER, Ssteel is an attractive stock among the steel counters now.
