Valuation
LTKM (closed at RM1.56 yesterday) is now trading at a high PER of 17 times
(based on last 4 quarters' EPS of 9 sen). However, with a Price to Book ratio of 0.9X (based on NTA of RM1.71 as at 31/3/2016), LTKM's downside is well-cushioned.
Technical Outlook
LTKM has been moving sideways, leaning on its 30-month EMA line. I expect this line and the line connecting the trough in December 2014 & September 2015 (AB) to provide support for the stock.

Conclusion
Based on poor financial performance, overvaluation & bearish technical outlook, LTKM is rated as a SELL.
