finally rentered this counter at 0.55 today. Glad to be able to reenter at lower discounted price after taken good profit last ride, with the fundamental / prospect of the company still intact
A few weeks ago I decided to search for a small/mid cap stock that had potential for growth throughout 2022/23 . Generally my investment style is fairly conservative (blue chip/high caps with capital growth potential and paying a reasonable dividend) and by the last quarter of 2021 I had taken positions in stocks that I believed were suitable to hold during 2022. Missing from that list were a few small caps with the potential to outperform over a 12 month+ period. Which leads me to Perak Transit.
It would be fair to say that Perak Transit is not a sexy counter in a sexy sector. I doubt that you will ever see pump and dump crews entering this over a sustained period, if ever, which suits me. But what it does seem to offer is a company with decent foundations and fundamentals and a business growth plan.
Current basic fundamentals: 12 month EPS of 8.38 cents. P/E (at 60 cents price) of 7.15. P/B Ratio 0.70 Current Quarterly Dividend (at 60 cents) = 1.33% Current Annual Dividend (at 60 cents) = 5.33% *(above values using 60 cents as share price, current share price 55/56 cents).
While researching this company it was encouraging to see the company detailing their business plan and growth expectations. There are numerous short term and longer term growth initiatives that should lead to eventually higher share prices over time. These are covered in more detail in a couple of articles that have been released recently, I'll add the links at the bottom of this post.
Technicals/ Chart: From around mid January up to Feb.22nd it had been generally moving around the 60 to 63 cents area. On the release of the quarterly and subsequent Ukraine/Russia conflict escalating, the price eventually dropped with many other small caps to a closing low of 52.5 on March 8. Since then it has slowly recovered to its current price of 55/56 cents. Indicators are currently showing a return to the 60 to 62 cents area. Coincidently, if you look at the 12 month chart you can see a similar pattern in August 2021. Targets and support levels can generally be a mystery in volatile market conditions as we are currently experiencing, however a return to the 60-62 area eventually seems likely, with any increases in revenue and profit to push it further with time.
I've just realised this post is looking like an infomercial...lol....it wasn't intended, however I wanted to pass on some of the reasons I decided to take a position in Perak Transit. I believe there is a growth story here, backed by good fundamentals, so if you are looking for a small/mid cap investment then you may want to take a look at PTrans. Keep in mind, this is not the type of business that will be featured by the pump crews. Treat this more as a mid to longer term investment with an attached credible dividend percentage return.
@tksw, I don't see anything wrong with that at this point in time. All trades today have gone through at 56 and 56.5, with a steady increase in day on day volume. The last three days volume has increased from 675K to 1.05 million to 1.9 million today, closing at 56.5.
Seems to me to be a nice steady consolidation pattern after the initial drop to 52.5. As always, time will tell if it goes in the direction we want it to go :)
For those who are concerned about the impact of raising interest rate & oil prices.
Are interest rates upcycle and higher crude oil prices affect PTRANS bottomline? Although the market may speculate the inevitable rate hike by BNM in 2H22 will affect fixed asset operators such as REITS due to increase in the cost of borrowing, we note that majority of PTRANS’ borrowing is dominated by Sukuk Murabahah - 98% of total borrowing in 4QFY21, with an outstanding RM100m of the RM500m facility unutilized – where PTRANS have interest rate cap as preventive measure (source). Also, the increasing diesel price that was driven by the surging global oil prices will not impact PTRANS materially much as the group’s bus have been pumping subsided diesel which is fixed at RM 1.881/litre (vs current price of RM2.15).
