The Group expects performance for the financial year ending 30 June 2024 to be satisfactory in view of improved sales performance in its trading of watches business. ----------- This statement by the company will be tested next week through its incoming QR3 2024. Hope for the best...
Base on my BRIEF study on the QR3 2024 (The latesr QR) of Itronic:
(Note: A comparative figures from QR2 2024 included)
A: Sitting on negative reserve / accumulated loss widend to RM 8,046,278.
B: Not a cash rich company.
C. Total assets > Total liabilities, Total current assets > Total current liabilities, and has a small non-current liabilities only @ RM 1,089,007 – Means still has a low indebtedness risk.
D. Revenue up tremendously from the last quarter and the gross loss and net loss were decreased.
THE FINDINGS:
1. NTA 5 sen _ , QR2 2024 @ 5 sen. 2. NOSH 707.59 mil. _ , QR2 2024 @ 707.59 mil.
For the current quarter and year-to-date period ended 31 March 2024, the Group reported revenue of RM16.88 million and RM54.06 million respectively. Among these RM54.06 million, 99.31% was generated by the Hong Kong subsidiary, which primarily engages in the sales of watches. Malaysia operation which focusing on electronics & system integration operation, contributed RM0.12 million for the current quarter and RM0.37 million for year-to-date ended 31 March 2024.
For the current quarter and year-to-date period ended 31 March 2024, the Group incurred a loss before tax of RM2.16 million and RM5.00 million, respectively. The higher losses for the period ended 31 March 2024 primarily due to increased operating expenses resulting from accounting adjustment, particularly the recognition of an unrealised loss of RM2.13 million on outstanding debts owed to creditors. In addition, finance cost amounting to RM0.97 million mainly from third parties borrowing, have further increased overall loss impact on the Group's financial performance.
Note 2:
The Group experienced a significant increase in revenue, rising from from RM6.96 million to RM16.88 million, reflecting a growth of RM9.92 million or 142%. This growth was primarily attributed to improved sales from watch operation. The Group recorded a slightly higher loss before tax of RM2.16 million compared to RM2.11 million in the preceding quarter mainly due to a decrease in profit contribution from associate, which amounted to RM0.01 million for the current quarter as compared to RM0.09 million in preceding quarter.
Note 3: Prospects
The Group anticipates that its performance for the financial year ending 30 June 2024 will be satisfactory in view of the improved sales performance in the watches trading segment. The Group will continue to focus on improving its e-commerce platform to deliver better user experience and increase customer satisfaction.
The Group intends to penetrate into new markets by establishing Halal Food & Beverage restaurants and Halal Convenience Stores in Hong Kong. Addtionally, the Group has entered into a Project Management Contract to serve as the Project Management Company for the proposed development of hotel and golf course in Pulau Langkawi. The Board believes that these business will generate positive cash flow for the Group and contribute to enhancing shareholders' value.
Anyways... I think Bluemount Investment Fund (which ceased to be substantial shareholder on 10 Jun 2024) could be the culprit of yesterday's sell off... As per my observation, the said investor could still has around 10 mil shares on the date of ceasing announcement.

The lower losses for the year ended 30 June 2024 primarily due to unrealised gain from foreign currency translation amounting to RM 4.62 million.
