Fund managers are getting more defensive as they grow more pessimistic on the economy and corporate profits, according to the latest monthly survey conducted by Bank of America. Global fund managers have increased their holdings in healthcare, insurance, utilities and cash, while trimming their exposure to materials, commodities, emerging markets and energy.
Why IBs gave such a low PE to glove stocks despite 10 to 30 x YOY growth in earnings for the last 4 qtrs compared with pre pandemic 2019 ? The unreasonable low PEs assigned to these 4 glove counters especially Supermx are due to failures of IBs to effectively and logically value the glove stocks plus failures for major investors to see the values from a more logical manner . Let me share with you how badly our IBs had mis value our glove stocks .
Imagine this pandemic did not trigger a super extraordinary rise in demands ( more than 18 months leadtime ) and ASPs ( 4 x increase ) in the last one year but a more gradual rise of 10 % ASP per year and an 18 % rise in capacity per year as follows .
Lets take supermx as example in a hypothetical scenario
ASP ( US per k ) 10 % rise per year from 2020 to 2023
2019 2020 2021 2022 2023
22 24.2 26.6 29.3 32.2
Capacity ( billions pa ) increase 18 % per year from 2020 to 2023
2019 2020 2021 2022 2023
25 29.5 34.8 41.1 48.5
Net Margin
2019 2020 2021 2022 2023
8 % 10 % 12 % 15 % 18 %
PAT ( millions Ringgit ) assuming utilization of 85 % and exchange rate of 4.2
2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Mfg 144 306 496 644 1003
Distribution ( 50 % of mfg profits )
0 153 248 322 502
Total Profits ( millions )
144 459 744 966 1504
EPS (in sen ) ( Total shares 2.72 billions )
5.3 16.9 27.3 35.5 55.3
Values in RM ( assuming PE of 15 )
0.79 2.53 4.10 5.33 8.30
The above scenarios gave a 3x rise in profits from 2019 to 2020 due to a change in business model when Distribution Division started to deliver profits . Thereafer , an average of 30 to 60 % growth pa in earnings from 2020 to 2023 . Will peoples still talk about ASP coming down and over capacity with such gradual growth ? Will IB s give a good valuations under such scenario ( consistent growth of 30 % to 200 % per year and will continue to grow after 2023 .
The end points ( 2023 ) are the same for both scenarios , ASP reach US 32.2 ( between 30 to 35 ) post pandemic and capacity grows from 25 billions to 48.5 billions .
I can bet you no company in KLSE can beat Supermx with such hypothetical earning growth for 4 years . In fact a PE of more than 15 should be given to such super high growth company .
Now , is the total earnings for the above hypothetical scenario more than the current scenario ? The answer is a BIG NO NO NO . In fact the total earnings is only 3.674 billions which is only less than half of the current scenario . If the current super high growth of more than 30 x ( or 3000 %) growth earn more in total than the above hypothetical scenario , why punish the stock and give such a low PE ? Are the IBs damn poor in their maths ? Are they ignorant or naive ? I am taking a challenge with IBs to show me any other company in KLSE can meet the above growth from 2020 to 2023 . Vitrox, MPI , Greatec , Penta , Frontken ? I hope all IBs will read my article and think logically and revalue the glove stocks accordingly especially supermx . It is grossly and unreasonable undervalued . I welcome civilised comments from serious investors .

So the price is not low enough to cause the Bursa system hang? If this really happen those monkeys out there would be celebrating with laughing and dancing towards the weekend until next Monday opening bell.
There is no much play for shorties this week. The net short position already 3.0% by end of this week. They will start to cover when 3%+ is reach. This is based on past record.
Pjseow, thanks for the analysis. The points are very clear. Not sure why in Malaysia the Glove Co are singled out with such low multiples. A question I have is can the Glove Cos do more to address this issue. There are a number of concerns around which need to be addressed to normalise I think, namely
ESG uncertainty and Risk China Capacity, competence and Cost Oversupply to Demand ASP visibility.
I do think the glove cos can do more in managing the comms around these issues. The issue with shorts is due to no liquidity, addressing the above improves liquidity and will fix the shorts.
nightrider, you're totally mistaken. pjseow's post is not at all meaningless. its for the benefit of all supermax shareholders including you.And you think any one article can influence price movement? Maybe can lah if you're from jpm. On the other hand, if and IF AT ALL IT WAS WRITTEN BY JPM, MY GOD,SUPERMAX WILL SHOOT THRU THE ROOF!!!!!

Good point pjseow. However the problem in Msia Bursa is, its too easy to manipulate with impunity. Our regulations and persecution of violations are very selective. The public investors couldn't care less about exercising their rights as shareholder. Our Minority Shareholder Watchdogs are just toothless to bite. So the system is rigged all the way. IBs have become too greedy, they want it all. Make money kaw kaw both ways, Swing it up one round, then swing it down another round. They probably won't allow IDSS for now, so they monopolize the RSS game for now. Why let so many Tom Dick and Harry in the game. Their game involved an entire ecosystem of support from news media to i3 forum goons. But I do believe with Supermax, it has hit a hard bottom alrdy, supportted by huge cash in hand, super net profit every qtr, good dividend yield, almost doubling of capacity within next 12 months and Delta and coming new variants will ensure ASP remain elevated for a longer time.
If no contra, no worry. Just buy and keep. Demand for glove is not going away. China is not a cheap labour country anymore. West also cannot be buying everything from China
