By:

Cypark 4Q14 Net Profit Falls 28%

Environment technology company, Cypark Resources, saw its net profit in

4Q14 fall 28.2 percent from RM8.9 million in the same period a year earlier
to RM6.4 million while its revenue dropped 11.8 percent to RM50 million.

According to the company, the lower figures were mainly due to lower
revenue generated from environmental engineering projects as well as
provision made for year-end bonus, administrative expenses and unrealised
foreign exchange differences.

The firm said its renewable energy division, which saw revenue increase by
57.8 percent from RM21.2 million in the preceding financial year to RM33.5
million in the current financial year, was expected to contribute significantly

in the near future in view of the Governments push for renewable energy
usage.
Significance: Despite the fall in the companys 4Q14 net profit, its FY14 earnings
was up 11.2 percent from RM35.9 million to RM39.9 million and top line grew 7.4
percent to RM237 million.
Kim Loong 3Q15 Earnings Down 4%

Plantation group Kim Loong Resources recorded a 3.7 percent dip in 3Q15
net profit to RM15.2 million due to a RM3 million impairment of assets and
provision for the financial implications of a 1 December 2009 court case
against its subsidiary, Winsome Pelita, regarding their customary rights to
land which is expected to result in an unfavorable outcome for the firm.

On the other hand, revenue for the quarter rose 9.6 percent to RM179.4
million, attributable to higher palm oil prices and fresh fruit bunches (FFB)
production. However its earnings per share were 4.88 sen compared with
5.09 sen previously.

The firm said that its 3Q15 FFB production at 77,600 tonnes was 12 percent
higher compared with 3Q14. As most of the FFB produce was supplied to
mills within the group, its plantation operations did not face problems in
selling it. It added that 3Q15 revenue from its palm oil milling operations
increased by 9 percent, achieving profit of RM13.8 million.

Significance: The group expects palm oil prices to remain stable at its current
level for 4Q15 and its FY15 crude palm oil production quantity and FFB
production by its plantation operations to be at least 15 percent and 10 percent

higher respectively. Financial implications of the court case will also be

reassessed when a full judgement is obtained.
Mah Sing To Focus On Mid-Range Segment

Mah Sing Group expects to continue with its strategy of targeting the midrange market whereby 84 percent of its launches in 2015 will be priced
below RM1 million. Strong overall demand is projected for mass market
properties, reflected in the success of its launches in the mid-range, mass
market projects.

Demand stems from first time home buyers, upgraders, new household
formations and government incentives for first time home buyers under
Budget 2015. Its projects in the mid-range market will also benefit from
ongoing and proposed major infrastructure projects such as the Mass Rapid
Transit, Light Rail Transit and extension together with the proposed High
Speed Rail.

The group has also acquired landbanks in both Puchong and Seremban, to
target the mass market and upgraders. In addition, it acquired part of the
Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah Golf course in Shah Alam to cater to the
high-end market in the medium-long term. These acquisitions have a
collective potential gross development value of approximately RM19.3
billion.

Significance: Mah Sing has managed to deliver its various key performance
indicators in terms of sales and financial performance, with RM2.5 billion of sales
in 9M14, a 25 percent compounded annual growth rate in revenue and net profit
over the last five years and a 15 percent return on equity on average.

Insider Asias Stock Of The Day: Tasco

transportation, for both domestic and international shipments. The company has
been established since 1974 and was formerly known as Trans-Asia Shipping Corp

Financial Dashboard). It has 25 logistics centres with over 1,500 employees in

Malaysia.
Currently, Tasco derives 40-50% of its revenue from the contract logistic division
which involves activities such as warehousing services and haulage transportation.
Moving forward, future earnings growth will likely be underpinned by the
companys expansion into the e-commerce segment.
Indeed, over the longer run, e-commerce is expected to overtake the traditional
brick-and-mortar retailing business model. With this secular trend change in the
logistic industry, retail companies would demand more sophisticated distribution
and warehousing systems from domestic logistic companies.
Tasco posted a 26.5% rise in revenue to RM559.6 million for FY March 2014
while net profit was up 5.2% to RM30.4 million. For 1H2015, revenue rose 15.8%

to RM257.4 million while net profit surged 42.8% to RM18.1 million. The
company has consistently chalked up double-digit ROE for the past three years.
Tasco has a solid balance sheet with net cash of RM13.8 million as at endSeptember 2014. The company paid dividends of 9.01 sen in FY2014 which
translates into a yield of 3.48% at current market price of RM2.59.

Management Holdings Bhd ( Financial Dashboard) is trading at a price-to-book
ratio of 1.6 and a trailing 12-month P/E of 11.9 times while Century Logistics
Holding Bhd ( Financial Dashboard) is trading at price-to-book ratio of 0.9 and
trailing 12-month P/E of 8.7 times.

Stocks With Momentum: Evergreen Fibreboard

Over the past week, Johor-based Evergreen Fibreboard saw sharply higher trading
volume, which drove its share price to rally 5.1% to a high of 62.0 sen, before
paring back gains to close at 60.5 sen on Wednesday.
Evergreen Fibreboard produces wood-based products such as medium density
fibreboard (MDF), particleboard and a wide range of wooden furniture. The
company also manufactures downstream products such as paper, veneer, printed,
melamine board laminations and knock down furniture.
It operates seven manufacturing plants in Malaysia, three in Thailand and one each
in Indonesia and Singapore. Annual production capacity for its medium density
fibreboard (MDF) and particleboard operations exceed 1.30 million cubic meters.
The companys products are mainly exported to Middle East and Southeast Asia.
Over the past two years, the company has been experiencing consecutive annual
decline in revenue, from RM1.06 billion in 2011 to RM938.7 million in 2013.
Following weak demand from the Middle East, a supply glut in fibreboard and
wood products, and rising production and logistic costs, Evergreen fell into the red
last year, for the first time since its listing in 2005.
It posted net losses of RM42.8 million in 2013, from net profit of RM32.2 in 2012.
This trend continued into 2014, with net losses of RM14.2 million so far for the
first nine months of 2014. At its peak, the company chalked up net profit of just
under RM120 million in 2007 and 2010.

Evergreens balance sheet has a net gearing ratio of 32.5% with its last dividend
paid of 1 sen per share in 2012. No dividends were paid in 2013. Although the
stock is trading at just 0.4 times book, Evergreens fundamentals appear unexciting
given the uncertain earnings outlook. The Edge Research rates it a Fundamental
Score of 0.75 out of 3.0.

Stocks With Momentum: Homeritz Corp

Homeritz, a manufacturer of upholstered home furniture, was previously

highlighted as Insider Asias Stock of the Day on November 20 at 80 sen.
After a slight decline following the subsequent broad market sell-off, the stock has
been on an uptrend again since mid-December, accompanied by rising volume, and
closed at 86 sen on Wednesday.
A net exporter with products exported to over 40 countries including Asia,
Australia, Europe and the US, Homeritz offers investors exposure to the
strengthening US dollar (USD) with some 97% of its trade receivables
denominated in USD.
Revenue for the company has grown from RM89.8 million in FY Aug 2011 to
RM112.9 million in FY2013. In the same period, net profit increased an outsized
40% from RM10.8 million to RM15.1 million while EBITDA margins expanded
from 15.9% to 20% due to economies of scale, increased productivity and
efficiency.
For FY2014, the company posted revenue of RM127.2 million, boosted by
recovery in demand from its key export markets and the strengthening USD. Net
profit was RM20.2 million, a significant 33.9% increase from the previous year.

Homeritzs valuations are fairly attractive. The stock trades at a price to book ratio
of 1.85 times with a trailing 12-month P/E ratio of only 8.5 times. Return on equity
(ROE) is high at 24.5%. It has a strong balance sheet with net cash of RM49.3
million, equivalent to 24.6 sen per share or 28.6% of its share price.
Last but not least, Homeritz offers good yields. The company has a minimum 40%
dividend payout policy. For FY2014, Homeritz has proposed a final dividend of
3.1 sen. This brings total dividends for the financial year to 5.1 sen per share up
from 3.75 sen in FY2013 or about 50% of net profit. This earns shareholders a
substantially higher than market average net dividend yield of 5.9%.
