Eksons is a Bursa ex-plywood manufacturer cum property developer trading below its Graham Net Net.
The Graham Net Net (current assets minus total liabilities) is often used as a short-hand for liquidation value. The general view is that if you have a company trading very much below its Graham Net Net, you have found an investment opportunity.
Eksons is currently trading at RM 0.52 per share compared to its Graham Net Net of RM 2.02. You may think that this is a bargain.
But Eksons currently does not have any significant operations and is a cash holding company. This makes it a cash-holding value trap.
A value trap is a company that appears cheap but instead of being a bargain turns out to be a dud. Normally if you have a Graham Net Net, it is not a value trap. But this applies only if there are operations.
For a company with lots of cash but without significant operations, you have to assess it differently. This is the case with Eksons
You have a stock portfolio to provide a balanced and risk-adjusted exposure to the stock market. But for this to be meaningful, the stocks in a portfolio should not be correlated.
This then begs the question. Should the correlation be based on price or some business fundamentals?
The ideal case is to have uncorrelated stocks based on both market price and business performance correlation. This will achieve diversification that addresses short-term volatility and aligns with long-term investment objectives.
In practice I seldom look at price correlation in my stock portfolio as I am a long-term investor. I look at correlation from a business perspective. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T7of46Q1Ww
Take the example of Eksons and Annum. The former was in the plywood and is now attempting to be a bigger property developer. Annum is still in the plywood business although it has ventured into construction and property development. The top chart shows the ROE trends of the 2 companies while the bottom chart shows the share price trend.
You may think that company with lots of cash can be a good thing. Afterall many would not challenge the mantra that “cash is king” But in the case of Eksons, you may have to think differently. As of the end of 2023, Eksons had about 2/3 of its total assets held in cash and short term securities. The huge cash position is because the company had scaled down its plywood business and its property development business had yet to scale up. So it ended with tons of cash where a significant amount is now invested in securities. Unless they have a Warren Buffett in the company, you should worry about whether this is an effective deployment of cash. My point is that the large cash holding is because of the lack of operations. This large cash holding has been there for many years. I used to think it was a good thing. But it a company is holding onto cash for years, it may not be a good thing. In this case, cash is actually a value trap. https://focusmalaysia.my/eksons-dont-be-mesmerised-by-the-cash-hoard/
Bursa Malaysia Eksons used to have 2 business segments – timber (mfg of veneer and plywood) and property development. But in early 2023, it closed down the timber business. At the same time, there is no new property development projects. The company is merely selling off its stocks of plywood and unsold properties.
Fortunately, I ameliorated my 'stuck' position in Eksons from 2021 by averaging down 1/5 of my original position @ 61c just b4 ex-divvy, lowering the average to 68.6c so was able to SELL for a profit using a low commission trading a/c even after bagging the rare dividend ! 973 days of trading gains in a row!! 🤗
