Focus Point (0157) update – Bonus issue and newly launched hot selling FamilyMart confection [$$bill]

-

This is an update to my first Focus Point post (click here to view).

 

There is a saying that good things come in pairs. For me, it was two positive events that happened this evening.

 

Bonus issue – creating bullish market sentiment

 

The first was the announcement of the proposed 1 for 2 bonus issue. This was a pleasant surprise as it was just in July last year that a 1 for 3 bonus issue was proposed (and completed in Sep 2019).

 

As most would know, bonus issues usually create positive investor sentiment towards the stock.

 

Macarons – another hot selling goody

 

The second positive event for me today was the discovery that FamilyMart’s newly launched Macarons are made by Focus Point’s 100%-owned Multiple Reward Sdn Bhd and that the macarons sells out very quickly everyday.

 

I went to three FamilyMarts today morning to get my hands on the macarons. But to my surprise they were all sold out at three outlets.

 

When I asked a staff, I was told that the macarons have been selling out fast from the first day it was launched. I was advised by the staff to return around 6pm when the second batch of supply arrives.


 


After finally getting my hands on the macarons, my suspicion that it was made by Focus Point was confirmed. The label stated that it was manufactured by Multiple Reward Sdn Bhd.





Zooming in:

 



 

The macarons are priced at RM11.90 for a box of three. 


On FamilyMart’s social media, comments about the macarons are positive. Check out their instagram about the macarons at https://www.instagram.com/p/CIFA1keH_k_/




I’m glad to find out that the macarons have so quickly become another hot selling item.

 

A number of hot selling confections made by FocusP are also on the shelves of FamilyMart, such as Hanjuku Cheese, Cheese Pudding, Mochi Puff, Cream Puff, etc.


The future shines bright for both FocusP and FamilyMart.

Focus Point (0157) – A strong recovery stock riding on the success of FamilyMart and MORE Most people think Focus Point (FocusP) is a boring stock with an optical business. They’re wrong… FocusP is the next F&B growth stock to keep an eye on. FocusP F&B business can be categorised into two divisions: 1. Komugi bakery outlets 2.  Komugi corporate sales Investors need to  focus on  Komugi corporate sales  division as this will be the growth driver.   FocusP struck  gold   after its Komugi  central kitchen  was  certified  Halal   in Jan 2018. Since then, it has scored big with corporate customers like  FamilyMart . And there will be more big corporate customers soon once the new central kitchen starts in Dec 2020. Many are unaware that  several hot selling delicious goodies  on FamilyMart’s shelves are  made and supplied by Komugi . Just check the label and you will see that they are  manufactured...

SARAWAK PLANTATION (SWKPLNT) – a  horse  with latent potential + the right  jockey  = a  CHAMPION racehorse Stock symbol: SWKPLNT (5135) Stock price: RM1.99 Market cap: RM555.27mil Shares outstanding: 279.03mil Part 1: A horse with huge latent potential CPO prices have been bullish, recently breaching the RM4,000/tonne mark for the 2 nd  time in 3 months. A number of positive factors will continue to drive and support CPO prices. But why are most plantation stocks not rallying? That’s because they are trading at  expensive  valuations of around 30x P/E with low production growth of only of 3-6%, while some even have negative production growth. However, there is an  exception … One  rare  species. One with  double-digit   production growth  and an  attractive   single-digit   P/E . This jewel is little-known  Sarawak Plantation Bhd (SPB) , an  undervalued  company with  explosive earn...

The SUPERNOVA of STAR MEDIA (6084): A Burst of Earnings?

-

Star Media, once a shining star in the newspaper industry, now faces the inevitable fate of a sunset business. The dawn of digital media has cast a long shadow over traditional print newspapers, and The Star is no exception. But like a star in its final moments, there will be one last burst of light before it fades into obscurity — a phenomenon known as a supernova. The recent move by Star Media to hike cover prices for its physical newspaper by 50% from RM2 to RM3, could potentially lead to a significant increase in earnings. While more recent data is not available, for 2H2018, The Star had an average of 151,623 paid printed copies in circulation per publication day (audited and verified by the Audit Bureau of Circulations). Assuming that The Star’s print circulation has now decreased by half to 75k per day, this would still equate to about 27 mil copies per year. A RM1 increase in cover price could potentially result in a boost of RM27m flowing directly to its bottom line. Assuming a...
