Pos Malaysia records RM25m net profit in Oct-December quarter

KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 20): POS MALAYSIA BHD [] recorded net profit of RM25.06 million in the October-December quarter in 2011 compared with RM6.08 million a year ago mainly due to a provision of investment and a one-off impairment provision while there was none in 2011.

It said on Monday that revenue increased by 4.4% to RM289.63 million from RM277.33 million. Earnings per share were 4.67 sen compared with 1.13 sen.

“Against the corresponding quarter previous year, the group registered a decrease of 17.3% in profit from operations of RM21.5 million (2010: RM26.0 million) for the quarter ended Dec 31, 2011, attributed to higher operating expenses by 6.7% despite increase in revenue by 4.4%.

“Higher operating expenses due to higher depreciation and amortization charges by 37.9% due to higher depreciation on National Mail Centre building and plant and machinery, higher transportation costs by 14.3% as a result of higher jet fuel price and revision of flying hours rate by 3.0% and increase in staff costs by 2.0% due to salary revision in January 2011.

“The group profit before taxation was higher by RM17.3 million compared to the corresponding quarter previous year as a result of provision of the investment in Transmile Group Berhad (TGB) and one-off impairment provision relating to capital expenditure incurred for the postal counter whereas none was recorded during current year,” it said.

Pos Malaysia, which changed its financial year ending to March 31, 2012, said that in the 12-month period from January to December 2011, its earnings rose about 66.8% to RM112 million from RM67.11 million. Its revenue increased 15.6% to RM1.173billion from RM1.014 billion.

The group’s profit from operations rose 38.2% to RM146.0 million (2010: RM105.7 million) for the period ended Dec 31, 2011, due to the full year impact of domestic tariff increase commencing July1, 2010 coupled with the benefits realized from transformation initiatives.

“The group recorded a higher profit before taxation by RM56.8 million or 57.3% mainly due to higher operating profit as mentioned above and lower impairment loss for financial asset designated as available for sale (that is investment in TRANSMILE GROUP BHD [] ) of RM10.3 million as compared to RM25.1 million in the preceding year.

“In prior year, there was one-off impairment provision relating to capital expenditure incurred for the postal counter system (classified under property, plant and equipment) of RM22.3 million, cushioned by write back of impairment in value of RM15.5 million,” it said.

Article put me in negative light, says ex-Pos Malaysia chairman

KUALA LUMPUR: Former Pos Malaysia non-executive chairman Tan Sri Adam Kadir told the High Court on Tuesday in a defamation suit that he believes certain words used in an article had cast a negative light on him.

In the suit against The Edge Communications Sdn Bhd, Adam alleged that in an article in The Edge Financial Daily on June 18, 2008 entitled “Adam resigns ahead of Pos Malaysia AGM”, the sentence “It is believed that the disagreement between the two parties ranged from the disposal of land to the awarding of contracts” was published in bad faith.

The Edge Communications publishes The Edge Financial Daily as well as business weekly The Edge Malaysia.

The story was published a day before the said AGM.

However, he admitted during cross-examination by The Edge Communications’ counsel Raja Eileen Soraya Raja Aman that a letter he sent to The Edge after the publication of the June 18, 2008 article did not state that the said article had contained “falsehoods”.

He also agreed with Raja Eileen that the said article did not directly state that he had misused his position as chairman by getting involved in activities which resulted in losses to Pos Malaysia.

Asked why he took about two years to take action against The Edge in re-examination by his counsel Mohamed Hanipa Maidin, Adam replied: “I waited for two years because I know I have three to four years to take action.”

In his suit filed on July 15 last year, Adam named Ho Kay Tat, former editor in chief of The Edge and The Edge Financial Daily, and The Edge Communications Sdn Bhd as defendants.

According to his statement of claim, Adam said Ho had allowed The Edge Communications to publish a defamatory statement of him together with his photograph on the front page of The Edge Financial Daily on June 18, 2008.

In the statement of defence filed on Aug 15 last year, Ho and The Edge Communications claimed qualified privilege and fair comment on a matter of public interest.

Ho who is now the group managing director/CEO of Star Publications (M) Bhd testified that the article was published as a matter of public interest because Pos Malaysia is a company listed on Bursa Malaysia and its major shareholder Khazanah Nasional Bhd is the investment holding arm of the government.

“Any issues or disputes involving any one of these two companies would be a matter of public interest,” said Ho.

Khazanah was then the biggest shareholder of Pos Malaysia. In November 2010, Adam had also filed a suit against Khazanah’s managing director Tan Sri Azman Mokhtar over his dismissal from the chairman’s post. The suit has since been dismissed.

At Tuesday’s hearing, Ho also told the court that there was no record of a complaint from Adam and that he only knew that the former Pos Malaysia chairman was aggrieved over the content of the said article when he received a letter of demand dated Oct 20, 2010.

“I was surprised when I first saw the plaintiff’s letter of demand as it was only sent almost two years after the article was published,” he said.

Ho also said that Adam had been a columnist for The Edge Malaysia and his last column had been published on June 16, 2008.

In cross examination by Adam’s counsel Mohamed Hanipa Maidin, Ho disagreed that by including the words “disposal of land to the awarding of contracts”, the readers would think that Adam was involved in it.

The hearing before Justice Datuk John Louis O’Hara continues today.

KLCI stays cautious in line with the retreat at key regional markets

KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 30): Trading on the FBM KLCI remained cautious at mid-morning on Monday, in line with the subdued sentiment at key regional markets ahead of key economic data from the US as well as developments in Europe in relation to the Greece debt issues.

At mid-morning, the 30-stock index edged up 0.56 of a point to 1,521.46.

Gainers led losers by 279 to 199, while 263 counters traded unchanged. Volume was 582.43 million shares valued at RM239.19 million.

Asian shares inched lower and the euro eased from its highest in more than six weeks on Monday, as markets cautiously tuned in to a likely debt swap deal for Greece that is crucial to avoiding a messy default and eyed another European summit meeting, according to Reuters.

World stocks fell on Friday on a slower-than-expected annualised 2.8 percent growth in the U.S. economy in the last quarter of 2011, the fastest quarterly rate in 1-1/2 years, while U.S. stocks were also weighed down by disappointing corporate results, it said.

At the regional markets, Japan’s Nikkei 225 fell 0.64% to 8,784.31, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index was down 0.55% to 29,388.50, the Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.91% to 2,297.96, Taiwan’s Taiex rose 2.86% to 7,440.49, South Korea’s Kospi fell 0.68% to 1,951.45 while Singapore’s Straits Time Index lost 0.91% to 2,889.79.

BIMB Securities Research in a note Monday said that a slew of developments both in the US and Europe could chart the direction of global equity markets this week.

Impending economic data plus more corporate results from the US and the European Summit may well see investors stay sidelined, it said.

As such, there were some profits taking activities ahead of this week’s events with the Dow Jones Industrial Average losing 74 points last Friday, it said.

The research house said that as for Europe, most major indices ended up in the negative territory after an across the board technical rebound on Thursday.

Regionally, most major bourses continued with their uptrend buoyed possibly by prospects of more monetary easing within the region, it said.

Nonetheless, latest move by China to maintain its SRR would disappoint some market observers and trigger some profit taking today, it said.

“Domestically, the FBM KLCI maintained its range trading activities without any headway from the lack of fresh catalysts and may test the immediate support of 1,515 today.

“Nonetheless, the stronger ringgit at RM3.04 per US$1 may be a precursor of foreign funds trickling in,” it said.

On Bursa Malaysia, privatisation targets Glenealy and Lingui were among the top gainers. Glenealy jumped 65 sen to RM7.20 while Lingui added 17 sen to RM1.53.

Other gainers included GFB that added 26 sen to RM1.47, Hartalega up 25 sen to RM7.15, Malayan Flour Mills 16 sen to RM4.13, Tradewinds PLANTATION []s 14 sen to RM4.82, Pos Malaysia 13 sen to RM2.88, Sunchirin 12 sen to RM1.77 while MBM Resources and Boustead REIT added nine sen each to RM3.78 and RM1.80.

The actives included DBE Gurney, DRB-Hicom, Hubline, Privasia, Utopia while the decliners included Nestle, Maybulk, JobStreet, KLK< Boxpak, Chin Teck, Unisem and Genting.

KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 12): The FBM KLCI struggled to stay in positive territory at mid-morning on Thursday as key regional markets traded mixed following the softer overnight close at Wall Street.

Gainers led losers by 221 to 197, while 238 counters traded unchanged. Volume was 333.23 million shares valued at RM251.65 million.

Maybank Investment Bank Bhd head of retail research and chief chartist Lee Cheng Hooi in a note Thursday said the FBM KLCI’s resistance areas of 1,524 and 1,535 may cap market gains, whilst obvious support areas may be located at 1,500 and 1,522.

DRB-Hicom names Pos CEO

KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Khalid Abdol Rahman, DRB-Hicom Bhd director for corporate planning, is Pos Malaysia Bhd CEO effective Jan 1, 2012, further etching DRB-Hicom’s influence over the company it gained control of in July this year.

The announcement on Khalid’s appointment yesterday came five months after DRB-Hicom group managing director Datuk Seri Haji Mohd Khamil Jamil was named Pos Malaysia’s chairman.

Pos Malaysia incumbent group managing director and CEO, Datuk Syed Faisal Albar, had been tapped to fill the CEO chair at Khazanah Nasional Bhd-controlled Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB), The Edge weekly reportedly over the weekend. This had yet been confirmed or denied at press time. MAHB managing director Tan Sri Bashir Ahmad Abdul Majid declined to comment on the report at a press conference on the new KLIA2 on Tuesday.

Formerly a Khazanah-controlled entity, Pos Malaysia has had DRB-Hicom as its single largest shareholder since July 1 this year. DRB-Hicom paid RM622.8 million, or RM3.60 apiece, for the strategic 32.2% block in the deal announced on April 22 this year. The sale was part of Khazanah’s decision to sell its non-core holdings.

The Employees Provident Fund Board has 11.76% stake in Pos Malaysia while Aberdeen Asset Management Sdn Bhd holds a 6.83% block.

When reporting its earnings for the quarter ended Sept 30, Pos Malaysia said its financial year-end had been changed from Dec 31 to March 31. DRB-Hicom’s financial year ends on March 31.

Khalid, 55, was appointed alternate director to DRB-Hicom group COO Datuk Lukman Ibrahim on Pos Malaysia’s board in July.

Before joining DRB-Hicom as head of corporate planning in August 2006, Khalid was group general manager for corporate planning and business development at Tradewinds Corp Bhd.

An accountant by training, Khalid’s earlier rounds in Corporate Malaysia include corporate finance stints with Perdana Merchant Bankers Bhd and Rakyat Merchant Bankers Bhd, according to a statement to Bursa Malaysia.

Pos Malaysia, whose shares hit a high of RM3.65 on April 7, is down 24% year-to-date at its RM2.49-close yesterday. There are four “buy’”recommendations on the stock, with the most bullish being OSK Securities, which values Pos Malaysia at RM4.12. Credit Suisse is the only brokerage house with a neutral recommendation, valuing it at RM3.20, according to Bloomberg data.

Meanwhile, DRB-Hicom ended at RM2.03 yesterday, up 4.6% year-to-date, but off its recent high of RM2.50 apiece on April 7. The counter has three “buys” versus two “holds”, according to Bloomberg data.

At the time of writing, RHB Research Institute’s RM1.90 price target is the most bearish while CIMB Research values the stock at RM3.95.

EMS Malaysia not affiliated: Pos

Pos Malaysia Bhd has clarified that a company known as EMS Malaysia is not affiliated or linked with it or any of its business units, departments and subsidiaries.

Pos Malaysia said in a statement today it did not assign any business operating rights to EMS Malaysia to operate any postal services despite the latter's reference to Pos Malaysia's former Call Centre address in its website (www.emsmalaysia.com) as its Customer Service Address.

"Pos Malaysia would like to clarify that Expedited Mall Services (EMS) is an international courier service, for documents and merchandise, offered by the network of postal operators under the Universal Postal Union (UPU).

"As a member of the UPU and the sole Malaysia representative, Pos Malaysia is the only postal operator designated to operate, manage and handle the EMS service through PosLaju as well as utilise the EMS brand name," it said.

Pos Malaysia is a full member in the EMS Cooperative, the statement added.

It said the address of EMS Malaysia, as published on the website, is that of Pos Malaysia's former call centre at Subang Jaya Post Office.

But while the post office still occupies and runs its operations on the ground floor, Pos Malaysia said it has never leased the currently vacant level one of its Subang Jaya office to EMS Malaysia.

"Those who have fallen victim to the claims made by the website are advised to lodge a police report or contact Pos Malaysia's call centre through PosLine at 1-300-300-300," it added. -- Bernama

OSK keeps 'buy' call on Pos

OSK Research is maintaining its "buy" recommendation on Pos Malaysia Bhd, given the group's positive synergies with DRB-Hicom Bhd and its collaboration with Bank Muamalat Malaysia Bhd.

OSK Research said in a research note today: "We maintain our earnings forecast at this juncture because we believe the group will be unveiling more collaboration efforts with DRB-HICOM going forward."

The research firm said the tie-up with Bank Muamalat and Uni-Asia Life Insurance would boost Pos Malaysia's retail service and it would leverage on DRB's Kuala Lumpur Airport Services (KLAS) to enhance its PosLaju courier services.

OSK Research also highlighted the potential for DRB to unlock the value of the five land plots owned by Pos Malaysia through redevelopment.

The research firm said it is maintaining the "buy" call on Pos Malaysia with a fair value (FV) of RM4.12. -- Bernama
