(1) MI is small at 0.15 mil. This means that Able Food (80% owned) generated net profit of RM0.75 mil. This means that the new factory is not running at full capacity yet. This is also consistent with probability's fact check with Johotin people (as mentioned above)
(2) Tin division played major role in driving up this quarter profit. In good years (2012 to 14), this division PBT per quarter approximately RM2.5 mil. In bad years (2015), this division PBT per quarter was RM1.5 mil (weak Ringgit increase import cost). However, in latest quarter, this division generated PBT of RM4.95 mil (please refer page 10 of quarterly report). This will not be sustainable.
Conclusion : if you adjust the tin division profit back to normal, Group profit should be reduced by let's say, RM2.5 mil. This is the negative point
On the other hand, there is hope that Able a Food factory once running full capacity, there will be a boast to earning. This is the positve point.
Overall, I would say that the latest strong profit has been overstated by tin division profit by around RM2 mil. Next quarter tin division might be lower. However, Able Food could surprise on the upside, if the new factory is as good as management has been telling us
Con. Tin division no longer major contribution. Able food more important now. And upside of able food much higher than tin. Read their comment carefully.
However, the Group is subject to market risk in term of foreign currency, on sales and purchases that are denominated in foreign currency other than Ringgit Malaysia. The Group maintains a natural hedge, whenever is possible, by matching the receivables and the payables in the same currency, any unmatched balances will be hedged by the forward foreign currency contracts.
B3. Prospects of the Group a) Tin Manufacturing Industry The demand for the tin manufacturing industry will remain challenging due to higher material costs. If the material costs remain unfavourable in the near term, the Group may have to adjust the selling prices accordingly. This segment will continue to be profitable. b) F&B Industry Demand is expected to remain strong although we foresee a very competitive market. This segment will continue to be profitable despite volatility in raw materials prices and uncertainties in global economies.
LOL Johotin has been repeating the same wording every quarter since last year

Tin contribute 8mil, food 18mil. And food continue growing. So what to worry about tin?.. Tin price increase tremendously, see Msc. But if they can up their price, I don't see much issues..
