I am still wondering how can panamy traded at such low valuation for so many years. Is there any big risk that I couldn't see? It has very strong cash flow and 1/3 of market cap's cash pile. Excellent management and solid back bone parent company. The retail is focus on mid-end products which is the most conservative. Not to mention the company's consistent dividend payout to shareholders.

Also, I am interested to know your opinion on the fundamental area of Bonia.

Thank you and appreciate your kind sharing as always. Bravo!

Hi steve,

I agree with you on Panamy. It reminds me of Aji(nomoto). Cheap & good!

As for Bonia, it is resting at its long-term uptrend line at RM0.70. Its rolling 4-Q revenue rose 4% to RM689 million while net profit declined by 5% to RM49 million, leading to a decline in EPS from 6.4 to 6.1 sen.

At RM0.72, it is trading at PER of 12x or Price to Book of 1.6x. This makes Bonia a more attractive stock than Padini which has a PER of 13.2x & a PB of 2.9x.

I rate Bonia a good BUY for long -term.
