Shah Alam, 24 November 2020 – Powerwell Holdings Bhd (“Powerwell” or the “Group”), today announced its third quarter results for the financial year ending 31 March 2021.
Powerwell registered a revenue and profit before tax (“PBT”) of RM25.4 million and RM2.3 million respectively as compared to a revenue of RM11.6 million and loss before tax of RM3.4 million in the preceding quarter. This was due to the increase in number of projects delivered and higher average project value as the Group’s operations returned to normal with the Malaysian and Vietnamese governments gradually relaxed the movement restrictions and social distancing measures imposed to help curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
For the nine-months financial period ended 30 September (“FPE”) 2020, Powerwell registered a revenue and loss before tax of RM55.2 million and RM3.6 million respectively as compared to revenue and PBT of RM66.4 million and RM10.7 million for the FPE 2019. The losses during FPE 2020 was attributable to a one-off listing expense of RM4.5 million where RM4.2 million was charged out in the first quarter of 2020 as well as lower number of projects delivered and fixed cost that continued to be incurred due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Excluding the listing expense, the PBT would have been RM0.6 million. Powerwell’s Executive Director, Ricky Lee, said that the Group remains cautious of the current economic situation but believes that the Group is resilient to face any downturn that might occur with various measures implemented to ensure minimal disruptions to projects’ timelines, payments and business operations. He added, “We recently secured multiple contracts worth RM21.7 million which brought our outstanding order book to RM74.7 million (as at 31 October 2020). This will provide earnings visibility for Powerwell until 2021. With the gradual lifting of social distancing measures and resumption of the government infrastructure projects, we believe we can replenish our order book to deliver sustainable earnings for our shareholders.”
powerwell is not semicon company, it is more related to construction, and now construction sector is bad, powerwell hand left around 80m order book, means if they did not get any new project then probably they will report bad qr starting from 2022, that's why ppl are not interest to this stock
1) Is expecting revenue growth to come from the “replacement market” in Malaysia - Semiconductor plant would need to revise its products, the changing of its production line will include low voltage (LV) switchboards and medium voltage (MV) switchgears.
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....
