AsiaPharm Group Ltd recently acquisition of CMNa and Solid Success Group could be possible to become one of the China's Top ten players in the cancer drug industry. The forecasted projection growth for the coming future need to do an adjustment in it's value, because those increased asset are able to get more revenue and increase of business market share (increase the strength in market position in China). This is to be believe there is a significant boost in AsiaPharm's revenue and the profit for the coming future. market analyst forecasted is about double-digit growth for the coming future earning.

The recent collaboration with KKC Corporation Co. Ltd (KKC)could help in conducting the cancer drug clinical trials process in Korea by effective cost saving and that will also help to obtain the necessary approvals to distribute cancer drug in Korea market. This is an incentive to Asiapharm in Korea market.

The company's management will continues to look for more value acquisition in the coming future and this is to done by issues new share placements.

On the other hand most of the Fund manager predicted China domestic market will growth as the certain percentage of the China population getting urbanize where demand is created and the living standard is improve. I believe that AsiaPharm are able to play a important role in China's market in the coming future.

2nd Chance: A Muslim Apparel Retailer?

Author: Soon Fong

Who is 2nd Chance?

BACKGROUND
The Group started out as a sole proprietorship in 1975, when Mohamed Salleh set up Second Chance Enterprises to engage in the tailoring of men's garments. By 1976, the business had expanded to 3 tailoring shops. However, due to difficulty in expanding the tailoring business further, Second Chance Enterprises decided to switch to retailing of men's ready-to-wear fashion clothes in 1979.
In 1993, the Group opened its goldsmith shop, called Golden Chance Goldsmith. The gold jewellery retail business is currently the main revenue and profit contributor to the Group. In 1996, the Group expanded its gold jewellery retail business into Malaysia.
The Company was incorporated on 7 July 1981 as Indonesian Mercantile Traders (S) Pte Ltd. It changed its name to Second Chance Enterprises Pte Ltd in 1986 and to its present name in 1987 to reflect its change of status to a public limited company.
The Group is principally engaged in the retailing of ready-made wearing apparel, and gold and diamond jewellery, through a network of retail outlets in Singapore and Malaysia. Its 2nd Chance and First Lady outlets retail mainly the 2nd Chance brand of boys and men's clothing, and the First Lady brand of traditional Malay ladies' and girls' clothing respectively, while its Golden Chance outlets retail gold and diamond jewellery. In 1999, it diversified into property investments.

Business Review for FY2006

As we can see from the profit contribution breakdown, the main contributor is from properties segment which is 43.5%. Rental income was S$6.7 million or 40% of group’s profit before tax.

Apparel ( which many think that it was the main business ) contributed the least or 11.2%. Gold contributed 25% of the earning.

All the 3 segments are enjoying high profit margins as seen in the table above. And I believe the diversity in the business of 2nd Chance is bringing more profits to the company.

Breakdown of its Properties Why so many properties in City Plaza?

2nd Chance is aware of the condition and perception of many towards City Plaza (CP). There are 2 (two) compelling reasons for their purchases in CP. The government that owns Tanjong Katong Complex (TKC) have informed all tenants that this site is earmarked for redevelopment. Their tenancy agreement now includes a clause to vacate premises within 3 months of notice.

All retail profits from gold and apparel business in Singapore comes from our shops in TKC. The other 150 tenants in TKC will also be affected and when the time comes theytoo will be looking for premises hoping to rent or buy nearest to TKC. CP being just across the road, rentals and capital values of its shops is expected to enjoy a big increase when this expected new demand materialise.

It should be noted that any new development will take about 4 years to complete and its rental will be more in line with other suburban shopping centres like Parkway Parade, Tampines Square etc., whose present rentals are 3 to 4 times that of the rentals in CP.

Due to the declining popularity of CP, 2nd Chance had purchased 22 shop units there at depressed prices and expect to greatly benefit in the near future from the expectedincrease in rentals and capital values apart from having ready premises for retail businesses to relocate.

So how much does these assets worth?

The investment properties are stated at directors’ valuation carried out on June 30, 2006. The last independent professional valuation carried out by Jones Lang Lasalle Property Consultants Pte Ltd as at 30 June 2005 on the basis of open market valuation for existing use. It is the Group’s policy to revalue its investment properties at least once in every three years.
Based on the latest revaluation, all the properties are worth S$84 million.

Financial position at end 2006
The Group’s total assets stood at $126.6 million of which $84.7 million consisted of investment properties. Apart from these, the properties, which are self-occupied, amounts to $9.76 million. The Group held $19.95 million of quoted securities including REITS.

The Net current assets position as at end 2006 was $10.94 million and current ratio was
1.53 as compared to $6.81 million and 1.35 respectively in 2005. The increase was due to valuation of securities held for trade at fair market price as per FRS 39 guideline.
The shareholders’ funds were $71.81 million as compared to $58.05 million in 2005. The increase is attributable to the year’s net profit and increase in share capital. The net asset value per share was accordingly, 28.32 cents as compared to 31.78 cents in 2005.

What’s interesting about 2nd Chance?
Dividends Due to the steady growth of the Group a first and final dividend before tax of 20% or 3.0 cents per share, has been proposed for 2006. This is a 20% increase compared to the 2.5
cents per share dividend before tax for last year.

The dividend net of tax of 20% will amount to 2.4 cents per share or a total of $6.08 million on the existing issued capital as at 30 June 2006 giving a payment ratio of about 57.8%.

The Company has an estimated $2.31 million of section 44 credit available for franking the dividend and expect to fully utilise the Section 44 credit before the end of the transitional period in 2007, subject to the availability of profits for distribution.

Also 2nd Chance also announced a dividend of 2.7 cents for FY07 and 3.0 cents for FY08. These figures are attractive as they represent close to a 10% yield annually for the next 2 years and it excludes any further capital gain in the share prices.

Accompanying that, the board also intends to announce dividend for FY09 in FY07. This will give shareholders a chance to know their long term rewards from 2nd Chance and represent the confidence of 2nd Chance.

Earning per share is 3.96 cents on a diluted basis, and this represents a 7.32 times P/E ratio with a share price of 29 cents. This is an attractive figure, as property firms are trading at an higher P/E ratio.

NTA was 28.32 cents, this mean that buying the share at 29 cents represent no premium over its asset. With a high profit margin in its businesses, I do expect share price to be trading at 1.3-1.5 times over its asset or 36.8 cents-42.5 cents.

My personal take is buy for long term with a target of 36 cents to 42 cents with a annual yield of 10%.

Price Chart on 2nd Chance.

AsiaPharm will be growth in the longer term.

During that period Q306 & Q406 AsiaPharm Share price dropped is because one of AsiaPharm's major revenue contributor Maitongna's specification has suddenly changed by the China government, 25ml drug can not be sold any more. In some hospitals if there are 25ml drug available, because AsiaPharm can not sell 25ml now and to sell other 5ml, 10ml, 15ml drugs, they have to wait for next time to rebid to enter into those hospitals. So it will take times to recover the sales and 2q and 3q06 will be affected most. 4q 06 most hospital will start rebidding. Since Maitongna is the market leader so AsiaPharm would be able to covering to the pre-drop level.

strength of AsiaPharm:-
Strong management
-Long term vision
-Transparent
-CFO/internal auditor

Healthy company structure.
-Strong R&D
-High standard manufacturing
-Self owned distribution team
-Healthy financial position

The China Regulation changes and improve market efficiency.
-Healthy competition
-Mergers & Acquisition (M&A)

What I feel that AsiaPharm shares price will hit all time high in the coming future as the business in China getting better. AsiaPharm is going for a long term ride.

LongCheer is one of the fastest growth company in asia.

First day of the market (03/01/2007) LongCheer had closing at S$1.32, the shares price rised up so fast that the chart can tell you this shares is very volatile and most of the time fund managers traded at large volume at once or twice. The risk will have to be factor in when buying LongCheer shares, try to buy at bad time when the price is the lowest during Sept. to Oct. month that is the time where most of the stock are bottom, if you don't believe me you can check it out yourself on the one year chart for LongCheer shares price and try to figure out what is the price of LongCheer during Sept. to Oct. for last year and take the lowest to compare with the present price you will know that Sept. to Oct. is a good time to buy because the shares price raising up smooth at most of the year pattern (good stock will have this kind of pattern). This is a good investment planning for long term.

Why LongCheer is so good that make me so interesting in it? LongCheer is one of the leading Chinese mobile handset designer. I have done my research on the term "fastest growing" + "asia" + "Deloitte" + "2005" on the search engine to look for the search list and then I browse thru the link one by one from the search list to look for the finding on fastest growth companies listed in asia. I did find the link from Deloitte is the one of world leading auditing company that able to nominate and ranked those top growth companies in Asia, Europe and US. From the ranked list I try to find those companies that are listed in Singapore Exchange, had found a few of them but I take LongCheer because Longcheer is the top of the among of them. At this moment you can study thru the LongCheer annual report and you will know from there this company is health in the accounting. That is how I do my research from raw. well, investment is not a gamble if you have done well in your research and you will get the return from what you have paid off...

The Company was incorporated in December 1995 in Singapore as Poh Lian Holdings Pte Ltd as an investment holding company working in the construction industry. In conjunction with the initial public offerings, the Company changed its name to Poh Lian Holdings Limited.

The history of the Group can be traced back to 1972 when a partnership named Yew Hock Frame Construction was established to do timber scaffoldings. In 1984, it switched to metal scaffoldings, as required by the government.

Poh Lian Construction (Pte) Ltd was incorporated in 1975 to carry on the business of a contractor. By 1995, it was recognised by CIDB as one of the top 20 Singapore construction companies.

In April 2002, the shareholders of the Company approved a plan to venture into the forestry and pulp businesses. The restructuring exercise involved the acquisition of the entire issued and paidup share capital of Anrof Singapore Ltd group of companies with a forest concession right and extensive forest plantations in Indonesia and with a licence to build and operate a bleached hardwood kraft pulp mill in Indonesia with an annual production capacity of 600,000 tonnes of pulp. The Company changed its name to United Fiber System Limited wef 23 April 2002 to reflect the new core businesses of forestry and pulp production.

The restructuring exercise has transformed UFS from a local construction company to a group with significant regional presence and with synergistic operations in forestry, pulp production and construction.


Magnus
The Company was incorporated in Singapore on 28 March 1983 under the name Strike Electrical Pte Ltd and was renamed to Strike Engineering Pte Ltd on 3 October 1997. The Company adopted Strike Engineering Ltd on 8 July 1999.

Stike began its roots as a sub-contractor undertaking electrical installations. In a span of 20 years, it has built an established track record as a provider of quality and reliable mechanical and electrical engineering ("M&E") services.

With the stiff operating conditions & cyclical nature of the construction business, a strategic decision was made in 2003 to shift its business focus.

The acquisition of a 54.35 percent controlling stake in Mid-Continent Equipment Group Pte Ltd has enabled the group to establish new business opportunities in the oil and gas as well as alternative energies industries in new global markets.

The group will continue to tender selectively for profi table engineering projects. This will be an ongoing process for the group as it looks to diversify its energy business activities, broaden its earnings base and at the same time re-engineer itself to explore new opportunities globally.

In 2004, Strike changed its name to Magnus Energy Group Ltd.
