Why didn't the company right issue earlier? it would have been able to cover up the debts. Is it the owner deliberately bankrupt the company given bad economic environment? Anyone knows?

Interesting for case study in particular for those who want to borrow $$$ from bankers and others.

London Biscuit Bhd, which is facing a winding-up petition, is writing off RM363.16 million of receivables in the fourth quarter ended Sept 30, 2019 (4QFY19)... who are the receivables? Is it Kheesan and some others? NTA became negative 0.25 now, well done.

This reflects the quality of auditors, the credibility of accounts and management, the ability and willingness of authorities in taking prompt actions, the effectiveness of corporate governance and bod...

obviously the management is hanky panky within the company by either manipulating the plant & machinery, right issue & etc.
squeezing dry the company cash flow into their own pocket by reporting fake high cost of machinery purchases. if you compare with apollo their machinery purchase won't cost >100m.

Probable top management fraud, auditor eyes closed and audit committee members sleeping. This will be an interesting case study considering the private placements only a few months ago.

However the impairment of receivables may have been too aggressive if quarterly revenue is RM100m as the industry operates on credit sales; unless there is a problem with the revenue number as well.

better to close down

must put in money to make negative to zero

its like
your neighbour bought Mercedes Benz S series for RM650,000.00

but you bought your Mercedes Benz S series by
first paying RM650,000.00 to make -RM650,000.00 to zero
then paying RM650,000.00 to make zero to RM650,000.00
all in you paid RM1.3 million to buy a car value RM650,000.00

your neighbour will die laughing

If the RM 100m per quarter revenue number is true, this is a business worth saving as it is not easy for a confectionary business to reach this size. There is much value in the business processes, relationships and IP.

thats a consolidated revenue figure

The global healthy biscuits market size was valued at USD 2.2 billion in 2018 and is expected to expand at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2019 to 2025. The market growth is attributed to rising awareness about health and fitness and growing preference for healthy snack products, especially among the working professionals and millennials. High nutritional value of healthy biscuits is also expected to augment their demand over the years to come. Increasing product popularity as go-to snacks, which can replace high calorie content products like chocolates, cakes, and cookies, is further projected to drive the global market.
Demand for healthy biscuits is increasing due to the active lifestyle of the consumers who look for convenient eating options.Rising demand for healthy snacks, coupled with high per capita food consumption, especially in developing countries such as India and China, is contributing to the growth of the global market. Moreover, packaging innovations and increase in the number of fitness enthusiasts are expected to boost healthy biscuits market growth.

London Biscuits is still stuck producing unhealthy biscuits
they need to change but never got around to changing their product lines

Total share only 280m. I feel they will right issue soon. The fund also feel this company still got potential in future. So why the fund invest this company. Lonbisc still have market. Only management term too bad. Hope the fund can bring it to another life.

One quarter loss alone reversed out 20 years of previous fake profits. Years ago I warned many times about the management taking out money via blatantly inflated property, plant and equipment, bloated receivables and it’s non-cash reported profits. Total liabilities now stand at rm550m. Who will stomach it? Bankers and creditors loh. Shareholders’ value has long been destroyed, now to ashes.

Base on latest qtr:
Impairment loss mostly from receivable from loss 280m.
Latest show only receivable only 6m.
What is the meaning of receivable 6m?
Means the revenue of that qtr 100m was not true where base on normal credit term 60days receivable should be around 60-70m. Do no tell me recent sales for past three month all are bad debts or all are in cash!

Poor regulatory regime and disclosure requirements.

Companies should be required to disclose at least top 5 buyers and %.

Aging schedule of receivables must be disclosed too.

One off impairment means both management and auditors are not doing their jobs and make correct reporting promptly, it cannot be suddenly turn assets into impairment (unless fire without insurance exception cases), situation must have been known earlier and why only disclose on periodical report? Isn't that consider material information?

Authority should not waste its time to organise running event but to spend more time to take prompt actions against listed companies and improve reporting requirements.

Anyway good luck everyone as there may be chance for contra.

does not happen coz Lonbisc took out Bankers Acceptances on those invoices

Banks specifically forbid related companies when issuing out BAs

what happens is Lonbisc types a sales invoice to customer and takes it to banks. Banks pay LonBisc a certain percentage of that invoice and charges interest

over a period of time those BAs grew and grew and grew and grew somemore.
I believe bankers already knew but they have had no choice
or the stack of cards will had collapsed earlier.

TIP :- always look at BAs when looking at accounts of BURSA companies or any other company

what Lonbisc directors dunno is that banks always prosecute their customers for fraud in the case of unpaid BAs arising from fake invoices.
If those BAs were paid its ok

expect jailtime for those Lonbisc directors if those BAs not paid and its fake.

listing status has no value now coz very easy to list nowadays
at peak time listing only worth RM20 million, its zero now

RTO Lonbisc pay RM400 million get about RM50 million value...

setup totally new company just pay RM100 million more than enough to buy PPE
and buy up those Lonbisc brands at lelong time.

means RTO Lonbisc must pay RM250 million extra

which businessman is so stupid? to pay RM250 million extra?
RM250 million grow on trees?

the only solution is to setup a 2MDB

this 2MDB will pay RM40 Billion to take over Lonbisc

no one will use their own hard earned money to takeover Lonbisc mainly because its no longer fashionable to eat biscuits and cakes

other people's money then can throw freely....

london Biscuit Bhd, which is facing a winding-up petition, is writing off RM363.16 million of receivables in the fourth quarter ended Sept 30, 2019 (4QFY19).

On top of that, the company also booked in impairment of RM31.04 million on investment loss in 4QFY19, according to its filing with Bursa Malaysia.

The massive impairment of RM394.2 million for the quarter under review was indeed slightly more than the confectionery maker’s annual revenue of RM391.73 million for the financial year ended Sept 30, 2019 (FY19) compared with RM326.36 million in FY18.

This quarter impaired receivables. Coming quarter may make impairment for equipment and machinery probably up to RM200mil to RM300mil. Because the assets is seriously overstated.
