UMSNGB: Q2FY13 业绩检讨 (Q2FY13 result review)

我只简单几句来带过这次的业绩:
管理层把经营开支控制到很好。也成功提高产品的销售利润率,应该开始有销售高利润率的新产品。香港那边没前途了。越南还需要时间起步。新厂也是需要时间。全部事情只是时间的问题。。。
I just provide a simple brief for this quarter result:
Company did very well in control the operating expenses. The profit margin managed to maintain at good level as well. I take a guess... this may due to launch of new product with higher profit margin. For Hong Kong segment, it is not impressive at all. Anyway, it is expected. For Vietnam operation, it is yet reflect any contribution but still in progress to setup the production. Still need more time to utilise the newly acquired factory/land. Just a matter of time for everything get better...

顺便送大家以下的一个图表。慢慢享受它的内涵。
Give an informatics chart for reference. Use your sense to analysis it.

VITROX: Q2FY13 业绩检讨 (Q2FY13 result review)

这次的业绩,表面上看来还是令人“失望”。其实,这次公司有不错的表现。
The latest quarter result looks 'disappointing' again. In fact, the company is running on correct path.

VITROX

这次的重点,应该放在销售量和经营开支。看了以下的图表,应该能发觉其中的奥秘。我所看得到的是,订单维持和成长的现象。
For this round, the focus should put on revenue and operating expenses. By looking at below table, you may find the answer. From what can I see, the order at least maintain at this level and there is room for further growth.

VITROX

管理层对接下来的评语,还是很积极的一面。如果你是一位有耐性的投资者,以现在的价钱,我还是觉得没问题去守和慢慢累积。
From the prospect highlighted by company, still looking good on its growth and mainly through expansion. Personally, I feel it still worth to hold or accumulate slowly if you are patient enough.

关于公司的盈利率的看法:
其一,为了要抢占市场份额,降低产品的价钱是可理解的。这些都是属于竞争性的付出。产品便宜,打出名堂,往后就以销售量来平衡回公司的盈利。
其二,公司最值钱的资产就是员工。新科技的研究和开发,都是靠他们。新产品必须一直推出,才能继续生存得更好。这些都是细水长流的费用。如果某个产品卖不多,盈利率自然会变低,因为研究和开发产品的必须费用已经是固定了(付出了)。以同样的理论,如果某个产品卖的特别多,盈利率自然会变得比较好。在市场慢慢复苏,消费能力提高,订单自然变的好。一样的花费(R&D),卖得多,盈利率的数目又变得不一样了。

A view on Profit Margin:
First, in order to capture better market share, lower the product price to make it more attractive is consider reasonable. This is a normal counter measure you have to pay off. If your product is consider cheap or reasonable, you will able to create the popularity and customer's confident. The return is to gain more selling volume and push up your earning.
Second, employee is the most important assets for the company. They are the one to make new product through R&D and make the company always stay at the front line in technology world. All this required continuous expenses. If product selling volume is low, the profit will lower by R&D expenses that already spend. At other word, when product selling volume is high, the same expenses will able to generate better revenue and the profit margin will increase accordingly. Profit margin will bounce back significantly when the market is recovering with better orders.

其他关于公司的资料:
1. 本地顾客占了33%的盈利。其余的67%的盈利都是由外地贡献。台湾,墨西哥,还有一个国家(忘了)占了大部分。
2. 主要以美金交易。本地的市场有一半也是以美金交易。
3. 已经开始打入电子业以外的生意。比如:医药,车业,等等。
4. 新厂已经用了一半。(空间放机械,必须品。并不代表产能率。)
5. 重复性的收入,通常都是产品卖给顾客后的三,四年所提供之类的服务。现在贡献很少,四,五年后才会比较明显。

Additional information related to company:
1. Local customers captured about 33% of revenue. Another 67% is from oversea customers. Taiwan, Mexico, (forgotten another one), are the main contributors.
2. Transaction mainly is in USD. Half of the local sales also dealing in USD currency.
3. Product is not only applicable in E&E, but also in other sectors like medical, automotive, etc.
4. The new factory, half of the space already occupied. (Equipment and necessary things, but does not mean to capacity usage).
5. Contribution from recurrent income like after sales service & upgrade feature, is still low. Expect need a longer time, 4-5 years to see a better figure.

信托基金,可以投资吗?Say YES to Mutual Fund?

其实,在没有办法中的办法,投资信托基金也是一个不错的选择。好过放在所谓无风险又稳赚的。。。(不多讲,自己想)。长期的平均回酬率要多过6%,不难。过去10年的记录里,很多信托基金都到达平均每年10%以上的回酬率。

投资信托基金,很多人都可以做。其实,又有多少人有真正投资的知识呢?买卖某个信托基金,要何如做决定?大部分人只是单单看过去的成绩。真的那么简单?坦白讲,没那么简单。运气和时机对,就可以那样做。不然,还是有风险。

投资信托基金,也必须下点功夫。做了功课,就懂得那个选择会达到比较有把握的效果。再配合一套的策略,就可以把回酬和风险找个平衡点。

曾经看过有人讲,如果信托基金只能多赚1-2%,又必须付销售费,情愿不去动被保护的资本,好过拿去买信托基金来“博”。其实,不要小看这1-2%。如果你会算,扣除销售费后,长期的效果可不小!

详情不方便公开讲解。有兴趣者,可以email我交流。

If you have limited choice to utilize certain capital, mutual fund investment indeed is a good investment, compared to just putting it aside for low risk and stable return way. In long term run, to get a return at above 6% should not be too difficult. According to the past 10 years records, there are many funds achieved CARG at above 10% .

A lot of people can invest in mutual fund. But, how many of them have a good knowledge in investment? What is the method to decide buy/sell a fund? Most of them are purely based on past performance result. Is that simple? To be frank, it should not be that way. If you have the luck and in right timing, I would say yes. Otherwise, you will be in risk.

Same as stock investment, homework must be done in order to invest in mutual fund. Once homework prepared, there will be an indication for us to know which fund can perform better in future. Beside, by equip a good strategy along, it will help to balance up the risk and return of fund investment.

Some people would say, if the return from mutual fund is just 1-2% higher, by considering it have to pay service charge, it is rather to just keep at shielded place. If you pay attention to do the calculation, also after consider the service charge, you will find that the different of the return is not small at all!

Not going to talk in details right here. If interested, pls email me for sharing.

ASW2020 vs 股票(Stock)- 回顾篇(Review)

回顾之前卖掉所谓无风险又稳赚的政府基金来买入股票的决定。19-Jul-13卖了。限期只是大概半年。成绩不错吧?股票vs政府基金,那个才是风险低,回酬高?

Review to the decision on sold out government fund (so called no risk and provide good return) and converted to stock investment. Finally, the stock has been sold on 19-Jul-13. Investment period is about half year. The result is amazing. Stock vs Government fund, which one give low risk and high return?

写这贴不是要炫耀自己。其实是要让不懂得投资的人看,用基本知识去投资股票的好处。
This post is not to show off but to let those who unaware of the great benefit by using fundamental investment knowledge to invest in stock market.

UMS-NEIKEN
http://www.umsneiken.com/
http://www.unitedms.com.my/
http://www.neiken.com/index.htm

【UMS集团】[UMS-NEIKEN]

最近两年的收入都属于平平无奇的一间公司,看来没什么特别。其实,公司近两年的净盈利都有明显的增长。主要是净盈利率从3%提高去7-8%。公司的负债很低和现金流也挺不错。是一间非常健康的小资本公司。只有80mil的股数。

部分人都很怕投资在小资本的公司。主要原因是怕公司分分钟会关门大吉。不管什么投资,风险观察都很重要的。一间公司在经济风暴时,将会面临很大的考验,如果公司的净盈利率低,负债高,现金流不好会导致周转不来,等等。以刚刚讲的基本分析,【UMS集团】可以讲是很有能力撑得过这一关。

From the past 2 years' revenue record, it looks nothing special on this company. Basically, the company net profit margin has been improved significantly in past 2 years. Its rose from 3% to 7-8%. Company has a low debt position and its free cash flow is doing great as well. From this, we can see that it is a very healthy small cap company with only 80mil number of shares issued.

Part of the investors are afraid to invest in small cap company. One of the reason is afraid the company unable to overcome economic crisis. During economy crisis, company will fall into bankruptcy position if it come with low net profit margin, high debt, weak FCF, etc. From the FA, [UMSNGB] has shown its capability to overcome this situation.

以最近业绩的观察,平均一个季的EPS大概有2sen。2011年开始,业绩有比较明显的改变。2012年变得更加客观。

2012年的年报,三十大股东里,KP FELDA占了7.52%。如果大家有留意BURSA公布的信息,KP FELDA所持有的票数,已经少过5%了。反而另一个股东,YEO GUIK HIANG,从原有的2.83%+提高到5%以上。个人预测,主要的变化都是从两者转手。转手后的股价,就节节上升。

In 2012 annual report, in 30 top shareholders list, KP FELDA owns 7.52%. From BURSA announcement, it shown that KP FELDA share holding has been reduced to less than 5%. At the same time, YEO GUIK HIANG has increased her share holding percentage from 2.83%+ to above 5%. Suspect the recent changeover is made by them. Once the share holding changed, the share price has rose up significantly.

从分部报告,可以看到大马的业绩正在成长。香港的业绩从2008年就开始倒退。越南的厂在2010年就开始没有运作。管理层讲到,越南的厂将会在今年的下半部开始从新运作。近期都看到很多新闻和投资者讲在越南投资的公司是好的选择。这个好,那个好。如果是真的,那真的是太好了!

From the segment report, business in Malaysia is increasing while HK business is falling down since year 2008. Vietnam operating has been stopped since year 2010. According to management, Vietnam will re-commence its operation in 2nd half of this year. In recent time, found many news and investors are saying good on investment in Vietnam. If it is truth, then it will be great for the company.

Segment Report
Q1FY13的业绩报告里讲到,最低薪金已经实行了。业绩还能够保持在EPS 2sen的水平。马币对美金强,对公司不利。最近反而是美金的趋势节节攀升。

Minimum wages policy had been implemented for the company since January 2013. Surprisingly, its Q1FY13 result still able to maintain at EPS 2sen level. The strengthening of RM against USD will add pressure to company profit margin. Anyhow, USD is very strong against RM in recent time. It is a good news for company.

从2012的年报里,可以找到净盈利率提升的来源。管理层做了很多功夫在提高生产力,费用管理和库存管理。资产负债表能表现的那么好都是管理层把信贷控制和资金管理做的好的功劳。
管理层透露,最低薪金其实把公司的净盈利率压低了。为了减低成本,公司打算把越南的厂重新开始运作。以我个人的想法,这个举动可不是那么简单。老远跑去越南,当然想再次打入那边的市场吧!毕竟越南的基建和房地产应该还有很大的增长空间。

In 2012 annual report, we can found that the net profit margin improvement is due to improved operational efficiencies, tighter cost control measure and better inventory management. The Group's balance sheet is further strengthened through improved credit control and better funds management. To mitigate the higher labour costs resulting from the imposition of minimum wages, the Group will re-commence manufacturing operations at its existing factory in Vietnam. This is expect to be complete in 2nd half of 2013. I was thinking, this will be not that simple. I expect the company to further explore the Vietnam market with this move since the infrastructure and property sector still has a big room to grow.

接下来,要进入主要的重点了。
让我们先进入一些关于公司的生产线的资料(源:公司的网页)。

Let's go for the attractive point. Before this, let's have a look on the company operation capacity info. (Source: Company's website).

UMSE started off initially by supplying 2 types of products for the Malaysian market with a production capacity of approximately 400,000 units per annum. As business grew due to increasing demand for its products and to cater for the increase in its products range, UMSE in 1994 moved to a wholly-owned, larger and better-equipped premises in Lot 5, Batu 17 1/2, Jalan Ipoh, Rawang Industrial Estate, Rawang, Selangor Darul Ehsan measuring 49,020 square feet, with a production capacity of approximately 5,000,000 units per annum. In line with this, UMSE increased its number of employees to more than 300 peoples until today.

In 1993, with increasing global demand, UMSE began exporting its products. In its efforts to increase production capacity and meet demands for its products in both the Malaysian and foreign markets, UMSE increased its production facility at its existing main manufacturing premises and set up additional production lines in a rented facility in Batang Kali, Selangor in 2001. Following this, UMSE's production capacity increased to approximately 9,000,000 units per annum.

>> 49,020sqft = 5,000,000 units per annum > 9,000,000 units per annum

On 1 July 2004, UMSE then relocated its production facility in Batang Kali, Selangor, to a new, wholly-owned plant located at Lot 659, Jalan Bukit Rawang, Taman Bukit Rawang Jaya, Batu 20, 48000 Rawang, Selangor Darul Ehsan which measures 21,200 square feet with a production capacity of 7,400,000 units per annum. The total production capacity as at the end of 2005 was 16,000,000 units per annum.

>> 21,200sqft = 7,400,000 units per annum > 16,000,000 units per annum

摘要分析:
1)低估。现在的价PE才5.x。还没考虑未来新厂的贡献。
2)股息稳定。现在的价,少少有4%多的股息率。未来成长会变得更多。
3)公司买很多产业来增产。需要时间见效。现在买入是因为这个价已经很便宜了。未来增长,代表更便宜。
4)最近有基金和股东交易。占了3.x%。平均价应该在36sen范围。这个股的流动票很少。这个数目算很大了。主要是看到KP FELDA基金换手给其他人。(YEO GUIK HIANG)
5)股数少。才80mil。容易炒。(哈哈!)
6)越南的厂将会重新运作。管理层讲是为了减低运作费,因为最低薪金的关系。但是我预测公司也打算在那边发展。毕竟越南的基建和房产还有很大的上升空间。
7)最低薪金已经完全反映在Q1FY13的业绩里了。但是Q1FY13的业绩也很不错。这样证明管理层在管理运作费和生产效益满不错。
8)最近4个季的业绩,平均都有EPS 2sen多。如果经济没有大倒盘,预测业绩至少可以维持或提升。(参考买厂的新闻)
9)个人认为,比起邻居(新国,中国,香港),大马的房地产还算便宜。只要房地产不倒,生意值还有上升的空间。
10)大马的生意占了80%。香港占了20%。大马的业绩有明显提升。香港开始2008年已经到了顶点。接下来,主要是靠大马的贡献。也期待越南能带来正面的消息。

这样低估又有前景的公司,还需等待更便宜的股价吗?如果能做到更低的价位,真的恭喜大家!

Summary:
1) Undervalued. Current share price, it is rating at PE 5.x. This is yet consider of contribution from those acquired factories in the future.
2) Dividend is very consistent. With current share price, its DY will be 4% plus. It will be more when company is growing.
3) Company acquired few factories to increase its capacity. It may need time to get thing done. Current share price is cheap. With capacity increase in future, it mean the current share price is even cheaper.
4) Recent share exchange between KF FELDA and YEO GH is more than 3%. It is a huge traded volume for this company. I guess the average share price will be around 36sen. Something good behind this changeover?
5) Number of share issued is very low. Only 80mil. It is easy to "speculate"!
6) Vietnam factory will re-commence its operation in 2nd half of 2013. According to management, it is to reduce cost due to minimum wages. But I guess the company also trying to explore the market there since infrastructure and property sector still have more room to grow.
7) Minimum wages already reflected in Q1FY13 result but it still looking great on the figure. This proved the management did a good job in cost control and operation efficiency.
8) For the rolling 4 quarters result, averagely each quarter come with EPS 2sen plus. If there is no economy crisis, I expect its result will at least able to maintain or become better. (refer to new factories being acquired.)
9) Personally, I feel that Malaysia property is still very cheap compared with Singapore, China and HK. As long as the property sector still doing good, company revenue should able to grow further.
10) Malaysia business contribution is about 80%. HK captured another 20%. Malaysia result is on uptrend whereby HK segment already reached its peak at 2008. Next, Malaysia segment will play a big role to sustain the company grow. Hopefully, its Vietnam operation will bring a great news in future.

The company is undervalued and also come with good prospect. Thus, I don't expect any more cheaper share price to offer. If yes, then you are so lucky to buy at much cheaper value!

MULTICO:最后的冲刺。(Last Round)

平时都是介绍买股,都没有提过如何把到了/接近价值的股放手。

近期,看到很多投资者都对【多元電子工業】很感兴趣。因为大家都知道接下来的利好就是将要在这个月公布的业绩。烂帐收回来了。业绩肯定很漂亮。也许还会来个特别股息。

不管如何,投资/投机者都必须知道如何操作下一步棋。个人认为,如果公司没有更大的发展来继续成长,一旦股价到了/接近PE9-10时候,继续上升空间将会变得越来越挑战性。二三线股,平时都是属于低PE的一群。

卖股卖在高部是很难的事。有时候必须懂得说,“剩下的盈利就由其他人赚吧!”


Normally, I'm only recommend on BUY side and do not mention on the SELL side.

Recently, found that many investors are very interested on [MULTICO]. It is an open secret that the coming quarter result will be very impressive due to bad debt payment from court case. A special dividend is possible as well.

Before you invest or trade a stock, you should know your next step decision. I think if the company do not have a significant plan to further expand the business, its share price will be tough to go further beyond PE 9-10. Basically, 2nd-3rd liner stock will have a lower PE.

It is difficult to sell at highest price. Some time, we should learn to say, "Let go the remaining profit for others."
