Comment from Explorer2 ..optimus:I think the job is already slightly behind time, and the parties concerned would have reached preliminary agreements before the site was handed over, and resources deployed to get things moving. It's such a massive job that probably takes about 1.5 to 2 years to do the piling and the sub-structures. They would have to tackle many legal and commercial challenges, and announcements would likely be made only when final agreements are signed. Same as big projects like Kwasaland and BBCC, they take a long time before anything happens. But I think it's a good sign for Econpile that some foreign funds like Norges Bank, Credit Suisse and EPF are buying in. Just my opinion.
Reply from the management : We appreciate your understanding - the Damansara Town Centre substructure contract hasn't been awarded to any tenderer yet and we are not at liberty to divulge any more information
KUALA LUMPUR: Econpile Holdings Bhd has clinched a RM570.4mil deal from Malton Bhd’s unit Domain Resources Sdn Bhd to carry out foundation and basement works for a mixed development project in Pusat Bandar Damansara, Kuala Lumpur. ( TheStar )
My previous estimation of the Damansara project was 455 to 560 mils, however it is more than my estimation.Lets do a simple revenue translate to EPS to estimate econpile's fair price. Total value of on hand projects is 1400 mils, to be completed in eight quarters time(Mr Pan Sar said to be completed in two years time)with the margin of 20 percent, profit is 35 mils per quarter results in EPS of 26cents. As such with the PE of 12 to 15, the price of econpile's hshould be stood at RM 3.1 to RM 3.9. I would not say econpile is another Pintaras, because with the blessing from EPF, I believe econpile will continue to shine and grow in piling industry.
zenon: l have full confidence with this counter on their steadily growth ( organic ) since IPO. Nobody can tell you the "truth" unless Econpile management ! Analysis and do home work on the progress is the priority. Secured Damansara Pavillion gave us assurance investing in this counter. But don't falling in love in any share...sell & buy is a norm , buy back when low price. Congrats to all and Good Luck!
More project annoucement coming in. Although it is not much as per pavilion damansara, yet it still contribute to order book. Well..U may ignore this if u suspect it is a trap.
It needs to cover the gap til RM 2.01 before starting next course of ascend. Why worry abt the price of Econpile when the stock can deliver you value guaranteed returns for the next 2.5 years
Econpile (M) S/B, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Econpile has disposed a parcel of freehold land to Tropical Broadway S/B, another wholly-owned subsidiary for MYR5m cash. The property is located in Klang, Selangor measuring approximately 130,680 sq ft.
The disposal is to streamline the principal activities and to unlock the value of the property through future development by Tropical Broadway S/B. Although Econpile does not have track record in property development, one cannot rule out the possibility of a JV with existing property developer.
For Econpile, piling remains its core activity. At present, it has 18 on-going projects, from infrastructure and property development sectors. The order book is MYR1.4b, comprising 1) MYR570.4m contract for Pavilion Damansara Heights; 2) MYR280m Maju Kuala Lumpur mixed development; and 3) MYR158m foundation and substructure works for package SUKE-CA3, just to name a few.
Going into 2HFY6/17, the group still has the capacity to undertake MYR100m-200m worth of jobs. Econpile will have to collaborate with other players for any project of bigger scale. The group is tendering for more than MYR1b worth of jobs, but is looking at an order book replenishment of MYR600m. By and large, there is concern that future earnings growth may slow down on higher base and capacity limitation.
The street is forecasting a 5% 2-year EPS CAGR for FY6/17-19. Brokers are positively-biased on the stock with two Buys and one Hold. The mean target price is MYR2.38.
Valuation wise, Econpile is trading at 14.5x consensus FY6/17 EPS of 14.5sen, which is higher than its 3-year historical average PER of 12.7x.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
