lets see how the sga is trending in the next 2 consecutive qtrs. And the due diligence exercise outcome on RPM group. A GO decision means there will be a need for funding. Failure to recover the receivables timely means there is a likelihood of pp fund raising. A pp fund raising will destroy/dilute the earnings; no longer attractive in my personal opinion.
No longer a surprise that it's loss making :) It's a question of whether a structural or temporary problem. Glad that the boss is reducing its stakes. Never a good idea for major shareholder to hold more than 50%. Wondering who will be the new substantial shareholder since it's a DBT.
Direct business transaction, hktee. Offline negotiation between the boss and another party; willing buyer willing seller deals . Don't have to disclose the buyer's name unless shareholding percentage touches 5% or more.
Cautiously optimistic, hktee :) It is not about whether its a norm or abnormal/irregular but rather the accounting approach - aggressive or conservative, hktee. In this situation, it was conservative approach pre audit which led to actual audited numbers being higher and better. Aggressive approach tends to show higher numbers upfront only to see negative surprises later while conservative approach is the other way round; lower numbers upfront. After all, the ECL / impairment of trade receivables which is part of the sga is still the culprit. Topline positive growth but bottom line showing negative growth; due to the same sga culprit. It will take at least two more quarters to confirm whether its a structural problem with sga or temporary. Hopefully its temporary with the departure of the marketing officer.
ya the company like reshuffle the whole management team, including changing auditor and company secretary. is this a red flag or for a better future growth?
Not expecting sga hit last quarter to be a structural problem, hktee. So, my expectation is that sga should be trending down for the next two quarters. After all, there is this statement in the annual report - Pursuant to the External Auditor’s review of the financial result of the year ended 31 December 2024, an allowance
for Expected Credit Loss (“ECL”) of RM29.2 million was advised, attributed mainly to one customer due to
delayed payment. To date, we have received payments in several tranches in accordance to their commitment
to make full payment for all outstanding receivables :)
