Perak Transit Bhd (Aug 6, 20 sen) Maintain buy with a lower target price (TP) of 31 sen: We understand that the full certificate of completion and compliance (CCC) has yet to be received as inspections are still ongoing, while the management is also addressing the issue of routing electricity to fully supply Terminal Kampar’s operations.
Nevertheless, PTrans is committed to maintaining its dividend payout of around 35%, which is above the official policy of 25% or more. As a side note, the management has guided that the dividend payout would now occur twice a year (from three times a year previously).
We lowered 2019 earnings per share by 12% after incorporating Terminal Kampar’s operational delay, alongside a higher effective tax rate of 7% (from 4%) from the diminution of carried-forward deferred tax assets, but hold on to our 2020 estimates (2020E) to 2021E earnings estimates.
All in, we maintain our “buy” rating on the stock albeit with a lower sum-of-parts-derived 2020E TP of 31 sen (implied 2020E price-earnings ratio [PER] of 11.4 times) after: i) removing the warrants dilution from our valuation due to the short time frame for conversion while being out of the money; ii) raising our weighted average cost of capital by 110 basis points to 9.3% to incorporate Terminal Kampar’s operational delay, which could suggest longer time horizons for PTrans to undertake its future projects; and iii) ascribing a lower 2020 PER multiple of five times (from seven times) to its project facilitation earnings in light of the heightened economic uncertainty which could affect bus terminal project consultations.
This counter actually is okay 1, just need to be patient buy at bottom and wait for operator goreng up with good news or good QR, six months or 1 years?
Trade receivable is profeesional fee for the construction of the integrated public bus terminal, Gst refund and rental of space.credit period of rental of space is 90 days. 2017 is up to 180days. u guy no read report.

Trade receivables of the Group comprised amounts receivables for the sales of goods and services rendered. Other receivables comprised mainly advance payment of professional fee for the construction of an integrated public transportation terminal, GST receivables and rental of space receivables. Credit period granted for rental of space was 90 days (2017: 90 days) The trade transaction of the Group are on cash terms or credit period which ranged from 30 to 180 days (2017: 30 to 180 days).
Pls dont read the financial report by section. You should read the balance sheet with cash flow together. Cash flow is strong and you can see the change of receivable and payable.
Please be informed that the increase in trade receivables corresponded with the increase in revenue and our company is continue to receive the payment from the receivables.
Nevertheless, we continue to like PTrans for its: 1) proven track record in the niche, underserved bus terminal business; 2) strong earnings profile from its existing core business; and 3) growth prospects led by Terminal Kampar and upcoming expansions.
Hello everyone. Please enlighten me if I'm wrong. For my understanding, this company is having a healthy expansion through its investing activities in the Kampar Terminal which seems to be a strategic location that is near to the student campus. But, there is a delay in getting the CCC, meaning that the profit for the FY19 might have a high chance to remain as flat or consistent compared to FY18 right? Also, the share capital is keep on increasing through the private placement, and there might be a chance that the director will issue more shares to raise for capital in the future. To sum up my opinion, I feel that PTRANS is a consistent earning company but due to its rising in the share capital has basically diluted its earning throughout the year. That's why the share price is keep on dropping right? For me, I will continue to hold until the full operation of the Kampar Terminal. There is no offense to anyone here as I just want to share out my own opinion as a newbie here. Thank you. Wish everyone here has a great and enjoyable weekend!
The market cap is RM 270m with 1.4 billion shares outstanding. There are simply too many shares floating around. For this company, the elephant in the room is the project facilitation fees. The management did not provide much explanation even in the prospectus regarding PFF. The fund managers know this and hence avoided buying in a big way.
If I'm not mistaken, one of the reasons that contribute to the higher profit in FY18 is due to the higher facilitation project fees. It is something that the company do their own project and thereby stated out this project facilitation fees?
Stupid, then you tell me whether project facilitation fees is simply a government grant to build Kampar terminal and whether the fees will stop coming in once the terminal is completely built.
Prospects The outlook of integrated public transportation terminal operations segment is expected to be favourable driven by the Group‟s plans for expansion in other part of Perak, whereby Terminal Kampar Putra (Phase 1) has commenced its terminal operation at the end of second quarter of 2019.
Next quarter will be better as include full period for Terminal Kampar Putra.
