cornered


Observations:

1.       Share buyback activities of almost 11m shares since November 2006 between 8 to 16c with the latest in June 2007. Share buy back activities are always very good indicators of shareprice movements as company is confident of future cashflows.

2.   Share trading volumes since the publication of the annual report in March stand at 88m shares from 10c to 18c till the last 1 week with the price coming down to 11c with the latest half year marginal loss but marginal increased growth in  topline esp from core markets in Korea while increased cost of operations integrating acquisitions in Australia and China in the last 6mths.

3.   3. Last 16 trading days with 5 selldowns saw 7m shares trading or an average of 400,000 shares a day with vol thinning out in the last 5 days.

4         4. The short term marginal losses coupled with the current weak sentiment will keep the price of oniontech depressed. Trading just 2c above NTA. Any major turnaround in net profits with high levels of cashflow in the next 6mths once CAPEX for future growth is expected to complete hopefully in the next 6 mths & integration of overseas sales subsidiaries in time for sale of 3G and IDM service.

Conclusion/recommendations

Classis IPO stock raising funds for growth. Listed in 2006 at 29c and then sank down to under 10c. Some encouraging numbers looks in the way the company is managing growth within operating cashflow within resorting to debt or bonds. In fact, conducting a share buyback just 1yr after IPO show management commitment to shareholder value.

With such a small free float of almost 14m shares and its share trading patterns, again the float would be easily cornered. In my opinion, a stock to look out for post rally recovery.

Financial Analysis:

a. Company?s operating cashflow has been positive and high in 2005 & 2006. At the later part of 2006, company embarked on 2 overseas acquisitions in Australia and China to increase their customer bases. Cost of acquisitions & integration cost has weight in on the 1st half 2007 numbers with core market Korea contributing to growth in revenue.

b. A key potential that has attracted my attention is the start up revenue from 2 new businesses in 3G value add services and IDM products. Cost of development is sunk & one off and outsourced showing management keen eye on cost & not having a high number of development team. If executed well, the ready products with modifications/enhancements would see incremental costs in development but maybe able to derived significant high margin revenue when  sold in different markets that the company has diversified into. Ie China, Aussie, Japan, Vietnam, Russia through fast growing 3G services.

c. Core operations and new businesses in Korea are generating free cashflow unfortunately being used in overseas ventures esp Australia.

d. Company has also used quite a bit of cash for share buy backs which in some ways to good for long term shareholder value and demonstrate confidence of the company of future operating cashflow without resulting to share financing or debt. Company has a very low level of debt.

Oniontech Limited: Part I : Core Business

Starting coverage of oniontech as a potential post IPO growth stock which may spring major surprises in the next 6-9mths. Company is growing its core businesses in Korea?s 3G broadband market with 2 new businesses of 3G products/services and IDM services showing decent top-line contributions.  Company has started to widen its international coverage in Russia, Japan through tie ups with NEC, Australia, Vietnam and China where potential market growth for its 3G and IDM services may yield high net margin revenue as cost is sunked in the development and any new costs for market localisation would be incremental.
