Since I came to i3 september last year, I have so far recommended 2 stocks, one was MYCRON & the other one was EKOVEST.
I had predicted MYCRON to reach RM1.12 when price was RM0.59, representing upside potential of 90%. Mycron had reached peak at RM1.20 later.
I had predicted EKOVEST to reach RM3.80 when price was RM2.08, representing upside potential of 84%. (After split, RM3.80=>1.52 & RM2.08=>RM0.83). Today, I have Ekovest valued at RM1.35 & pocketed special & final dividend of RM0.112 (after split). Please click here for reasons I am still holding Ekovest.
Today, I am going to recommend my 3rd stock in i3, that's CAB Cakaran.
My first target price will be RM3.04, representing upside potential of 81% based on yesterday's closing of RM1.68.
For more details & information about CAB Cakaran, please find out at CAB's Annual Reports & Headlines at i3.
On 9 Jan 2017, Managing Director Chris Chuah said the sales of quarterly period (31/12/2016) will increase by about 10% compared to the previous corresponding period & he expected improvement in margins. (Source: thestar)
We received the following results on 27/2/2017:
Market has not responded to the above quarterly results. In fact, the company's share price has been flat for almost 1 years as at today:
To get a clearer picture of how CAB has been doing in the past 3 years, you may refer to the following chart:
Historically, the 3 months period ending December was the weakest quarter in a year, but the Company has delivered fantastic results in the recently released quarterly report:
Expansion Plans in Malaysia
The acquisition of Farm’s Best Bhd will see an increase in the company’s broiler production capacity, from the current 5 million broilers per month to 7 million broilers.
Concurrently, CAB Cakaran’s production of chicks will increase from about 4.5 million chicks per month to 6 million. “In the next two years, we will be producing 8 to 10 million chicks each month,” Chris Chuah tells StarBizWeek.
Note: The acquisition is expected to be completed by mid of 2017.
Expansion Plans in Indonesia (with Salim Group) CAB Cakaran’s partnership with Indonesia’s Salim Group is awaiting approvals from the Indonesian authorities before construction of integrated poultry farm and plants in Jakarta can take place.
Land locations for the integrated poultry farm have been identified and confirmed, which are spread across north and south Jakarta.
Earnings contribution from the Indonesian operations will only commence end-2018 or early 2019 & the Indonesian operations is envisaged to produce 4 million broilers per month and 3 million eggs per day
(Source: StarBizWeek)
Note: The Indonesia operations is expected to kick off in 1 1/2 years, it is not so far from now.
That's It? What Next? Based on the above, the company is clearly undervalued & overlooked by the market:
1. Sales & Profit are expected to grow at least 30% in 2017 & 2018 respectively
2. Salim Group (Indonesia's biggest conglomerates) is holding 20% in CAB by paying RM2.07 per share
3. The management is looking to do great with all the expansion plans in the progress
More to come on the following:
1. Good capital management by the Company
2. Lowest PE compared to peers (Lay Hong & QL)
3. The beginning of another growth
I will discuss more on all the above projections & valuation in my next few articles, Part 2.
This part will discuss on the factors that affecting the company & the industry
1. Broiler ex-farm price
2. Poultry feed price
3. US currency movement
4. Poultry industry & production growth
5. CAB Cakaran & other competitors
6. Capital management & Production Efficiency of CAB
1. Broiler ex-farm price & average selling price of CAB
Broilers are controlled items in Malaysia & broilers' selling prices are therefore pre-determined by the Government from time to time. As such, it is important to know the relationship between the selling price & the profit performance of respective companies.
Based on the prices listed at table below, the broilers' selling price were higher in Jan to March 2017, my calculation of average selling price is RM5.15.
3. US currency movement
Ringgit Malaysia has been staple against US Dollar:
4. Poultry industry & production growth
Thanks to donkeystock.biz, the infographic below helps to make easier understanding on how a poultry is run.
According to a report titled "Review of Domestic Broiler Market" (page 11), it is learnt that CAB Breeding Farm Sdn Bhd, a 100% owned subisidary of CAB, is one of the only 4 grandparent stock poultry farmers in Peninsular Malaysia.
5. CAB & other competitors
Except Leong Hup which was delisted in 2012 & lack of relevant financial information, the following are the comparison among 4 public listed companies in Bursa:
Sources: quarterly reports of respective companies at Bursa Website
6. Capital management & Production Efficiency of CAB
Net Debts Over Equity Ratio
The Company has agressively expanding its farming assets via internally generated funds & borrowings. However, the net debts ratio has indeed been dropped from 92% (31/12/2015) to 65% (31/12/2016).
ROE
The agressive expansion has contributed positively to the shareholders' return and it proved that every ringgit reinvested brought greater return over time.
Stock Turnover (Months)
CAB has maintained one of the best stock turnover ratio among all poultry farmers, its stock value was almost HALF of its monthly sales only.
Receivables over Sales (Months)
CAB has maintained very tight credit control over its receivables and the average receivables turnover is only about 1.3 months.
ALL THE ABOVE POINTED TO ONE DIRECTION FOR CAB CAKARAN, SOMETHING BIG IS COMING.
I will share my profit projection, basis & assumptions used in my next article, Part 3. Thank you for reading.
With Forward PE of 12, it gives CAB Cakaran a good potential upside when the price was RM1.68 (Share price of the Company has gone up since the release of my part 1 article):
The following are the workings in arriving the sales & profit projections:
Note: There were fair value adjustments income of RM5mil+ recognised in the final quarter of last 2 financial years, no provision has been made in the above projection.
The following are merely my projections for revenue of poultry segment:
Quarterly Results for 4 Quarters in financial year 2016:
As a result of the above projections, I have prepared the following charts for easier understanding:
Note: There were fair value adjustments income of RM5mil+ recognised in the final quarter of last 2 financial years, no provision has been made in the above projection.
IMPORTANT REMINDER:
All the working, calculation & assumptions are presented based on my personal own judgement & findings, and are for sharing purposes only.
I never think I can move anything unless the thing want to move by itself.
Do your homework, read all news/reports, make your best judged assumptions & understand the business before invest any company.
