Listed companies not performing, bod and management all kaya, another skim kaya to con minority SHs while authorities remain sleeping. Why work so hard?
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.
I also loss money But I cut loss so Loss about 40% I cut loss few months ago Then I swap to Armada and Earn back the money loss on London Why Bursa Allow like this this is totally like Redchip pattern ? ? ?
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.
I hear already have new investor, monday if drop alots maybe they will collect. U can see the revenue, 3 months still have 0.1billion. Mean this company business still ok. Only management team got problem. So i feel still got buyer interest for this company.
must put in money to make negative to zero must put in money to make zero to positive
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
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.
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.
Revenue is super good , Actually be honest this company got sales good sales since the products is still good and business is still doing good as Reveue 106,645 000 much better than b4
another Good news is this
9 Nov 2019 Acquired 33,000,000 MEMBERSONE VENTURES FUND
just need a good team to run wil like Shell Hibiscus Drb Knm Armada Dayamg Naim
highdebts is not a issue in Bursa\ Many high high Debts company also can limit up like Dayang Armada sapura
The most important part is we can see the future or not drop to 5 sen or lowest also not a problem is got future like hibicus armada perdana all got a worst time
London price should see future not now now will drop
I feel member one venture fund also see lonbisc got potential. Feel they slowly collect share in market after control the company. U can see oversea they also have business. competitors also ill interesting. Take over it and use thier business network to extand thier business. Actually this company value at business network. They is more worth.
Property, plant & equipment bought from cronies companies with inflated cost. That is how they suck the company's money. If the lonbisc make a lot of money, that is not a problem...
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.
How can so easily to write off the receivable ? Receivable is not the invoices to the customer ? They don't want to collect back the money or what is the truth ?
Compare london product with another branch product. I feel london cake better than them. Still remember doremon logo stock. If bankrutp, that is more unfortunately。
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.
Posted by Lukesharewalker > Dec 1, 2019 10:55 PM | Report Abuse Maybe inter company transactions. Fake orders from KH
This is one of the Value Trap Counter I know long long long time ago! Serious, I never buy in at all as I know its fake! Anyway, a lot of so call "MASTER OR EXPERT" advice student buy in. On other hand, I would like to ask those "MASTER OR EXPERT" why you need student please? Why you need tuition fee please?
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.
