even though USD strong benefit to this LAtitud, but their qr result still lower than expected..this month high possibly release a lower than expected result(compared with peers), based on current price trend..big player slowly exit..beware
Haha result too good. Cannot improve anymore? If last year 17sen, this year cannot 30sen? Pls dont talk so much 1st. Let the result out and judge urself. Last quarter eps 16sen which seem like no improvemnt is due to extra taxation of rm3mil higher than normal quarter. Everyone see last quarter 16sen but didnt see why drop. Also all did not factorise that this is a usd earning company. When currency up, the profit will up. Let's wait and see and the result will surprise you XD
Anyway my stand still the same. If drop to rm6 i add. If maintain or up i still hold for this undervalue share regarding what market think about this share XD
You all talk so much also wont affect my holding position. If the share drop to rm6 before result come out, i rather be the most happiest man to collect more XD
Latitude business is in seasonal trend where two represent the weakest quarter among other quarter. 4th quarter is stronger followed by 3rd quarter and 1st quarter.
Why Sell Latitude - TA bearish , Q2 result is lower than1st quarter. Bad ?
Latitute Quarter 2 result EPS 16.66 which increase 85% compare to last year Q2 EPS 8.93 Q1 result EPS increased by 53%
The financial position of Latitute.
June 2015 June 2014 Share capital (approx) 100m 100m Retain earnings (approx) 400m 300m
Easily to 1 to 1 bonus issue or maybe 1 to 2 bonus issue. The company liquidity is very liquid the current ratio is very high event the acid ratio.
Why the director declare dividend of 12 cents Tax exempted SO LESS ? Think about it.
Quarter 3 result expecting 50% growth in EPS ? or 85% ? 90% ? FYI. as at September reporting USD reporting at is on around 4.30 (be consecutive [as at 30 is 4.4085]).
This share the only bad thing is the dividend yield. Other things is ok for me. If high PE, i wont invest in this share. But since the PE ratio is so attractive, hence the weaknesses can be ignored
Yup. Dividend yield and stock liquidity is low. dividend yield low caused by there is an expansion of business therefore scrip dividend is likely be a form of dividend to the shareholder. Therefore, bonus issue and share split to improve the liquidity of stock. P/E is less than 8 now. where other direct/indirect competitor is getting above P/E 10-12. Stock liquidity improvement is likely to be the proposal in coming AGM. Time will be the evidence. Cheer.
Based on the last year result by declaring 12 cents tax exempted dividend which approximately a dividend yield of 18% of last financial year earning. This show the management is very consecutive and the exchange rate is very violate difficult to judge.
A scrip dividend will increase the marketability and the liquidity of the stock. As now the latitude tree is sleeping long time since august. This is a big tree, never end here.
keep dropping, luckily sold at close to highest. While all similar counters up in same sector and one is left behind without reason, must take caution. Either will shoot up high to catch up or continue to drop to lower and lower. No comment on this counter
When someone mentioned this counter will drop... i was wondering, why ? Poor fundamental ? Too much debts ? Biz not good (how they know) ? Currency issue (weaken USD) ? Raw material costs increased ? or even Big fish selling ?(they said one la, maybe they are very good friend with big fish and got the insider news lor)...... They can't even give a convincing reason... i'm not saying this counter will fly but at least i think it's one of the safest and most stable counter... limited downside and for the upside just let the market to decide!
the drop mainly due 1. to big fish selling (b'coz major shareholder not listening to big fish to con retailers). 2. orders downed due to china manufacturers expanded / built large factories in Vietnam and fight for orders by reducing margin. 3. new venture into lamination operations may have some losses. If without strong USD and weak RM, results surely going to drop.
Fight for margin? U sure latitude fighting for margin? There is a lot of "general news" come from newspaper said that china companies are fighting for margin. But are you sure latitude are involving in this things?
Then why hhgroup up so much as the company involved in alot of china business as well?
I only agreed with your 1st point which is big fish selling
As always.investor always tend to scare themselves when the share price not moving or drop from the newspaper news that might be also the cause of the drop of the share. But in reality it did not happen and they always scare themselves. Just be calm if u think is good.
If no news come out, why you scare? Why other furniture stock moving?
Only latitude affected from china manufacturing eating margin? Liihen, pohuat, hevea and flbhd didnt affected? Then why?
Hevea also involved alot of business in China. Then why the share price keep going up?
The only reason it is not moving is some big shark is selling.
If quarter result did not come out yet, still do not speculate on whether the company business is doing well or not. From the last fews quarter result you can see this is not existing at all.
As long as latitud don't come out with excellent report/bonus/good dividend, it will be difficult to fly the price. Cos no shark is willing to goreng this. You can buy for fundamental wise, but its quite dumb for people who blindly and purely follow fundamental, fine for people who can really hold long, but people who have no holding power should avoid. If you're expecting good profit this quarter, its advise to buy now.
