are you the same guy who post on foreland in the nextinsight?
Dear Shareholders,
With the completion of another good year, it is my pleasure to inform
you that the Board has proposed an ordinary dividend of 0.5 Singapore
cent per share plus a special dividend of 0.3 Singapore cent per share,
subject to your approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting on 3
April 2013.
The Year at a Glance
The European financial crisis and sluggish growth in the US were
among some of our concerns that I raised in my message last year.
Despite these challenges, Asia remained relatively unscathed and we
fared better than expected. Our teams in both North and South East Asian
markets performed relatively well delivering a 19.5% increase in our
revenue, which rose from US$489.4 million in the previous financial year
to US$584.8 million in FY2012. Correspondingly, net profit after tax
rose from US$4.7 million to US$5.0 million, representing an increase of
6.4%.
North East Asia
Geographically, our North East Asian markets comprise primarily our businesses in China and Hong Kong.
Accounting for approximately 64.2% of the Group's total revenue, our
business in China benefited from the domestic market resilience. We saw
strong demand from the wireless technology, renewable energy and
telecommunication segments. Furthermore, demand for smartphones and
tablets remained strong due to the sustained momentum in consumer
spending.
South East Asia
Relative to previous years, our business in the South East Asian
market improved significantly this year. At the close of FY2012, revenue
contribution from our South East Asian market accounted for 35.8% of
the Group's total revenue compared to 28.3% in the previous financial
year.
Our performance in this region is largely attributable to the
implementation of some government infrastructure projects, the strong
demand for energy-saving products and higher sales of TFT panels.
Research and Development
Our R& D department adopted a two-prong approach by focusing on
expanding the capabilities of its BreathOptics product, which is an
Intelligent Baby Monitoring Mat using fiber optics to monitor baby's
breathing patterns and simultaneously expanding its distribution reach
to North America. In the US, our BreathOptics product underwent
stringent safety compliance standards and we hope to bring our product
to consumers in the North American region soon.
Prospects for 2013
Into the new financial year, we expect to see more stability in the
US economy and improving sentiments in China and South East Asia. This
landscape will benefit our business in North and South East Asia.
In China, we foresee growth to come largely from domestic demand.
Furthermore, with energy becoming a key issue in the country, demand for
energy-saving and renewable-energy products is poised to escalate. Our
teams in China and Hong Kong are stepping up their efforts to expand
their product offerings in these areas.
In South East Asia, business growth will largely be driven by
government infrastructure investments. We anticipate the implementation
of an increasing number of these projects. Our South East Asian team, in
addition to pursuing infrastructure projects, is also focusing on
automotive and energy meter opportunities in various countries.
The R& D division will use their fl agship product – BreathOptics -
as a launch pad to establish themselves in the infant care market.
Corresponding to this strategy, they will be expanding their offerings
in this segment.
At the organisational level, in addition to our generic business
growth, we will also be looking for strategic partnerships through which
we can enhance the value of Excelpoint.
In Appreciation
We would not have been able to achieve our results without the
dedication and commitment of our team. I thank each and every one of you
for your hard work this year and look forward to your continued support
in the new financial year.
To all our shareholders, thank you for your trust in Excelpoint. I hope you will continue to give us your vote of confidence.
To our bankers, principals and business associates, I appreciate your
guidance and advice. Your support will lend us the courage to scale new
heights.
Yours sincerely,
Albert Phuay Yong Hen
Chairman and Group CEO
do note that the top n bottom line of excelpoint has been improving in the last 3 financial years.
management report sounds bullish, implying another year of growth. i stand corrected on this point
pls verify it yourself.
I still like excelpoint ..
1. high dividend yield .. the latest declared dividend 0.8 cts per share giving a yield of around 9% based on current price of 8.7cts.
The same level of dividend was declared the year before.
2. very decent revenue of $700+ millions. There are not many companies which have this level of revenue.
clearly there is some value here.
3. management sounds quite bullish abou their business, implying that there could further growth. On this point
pls check it out yourself n draw your own conclusion.

Why I like Excelpoint Technology :
1. high dividend yield.
dividend declared for year 2012 is 0.8cts per share on current price
of 8.9 cts per share (price as on 8 feb 2013).
This gives a yirld of
almost 9%. Dividend for previous year was also 0.8cts and the year
before that 0.3 cts per share.
2. improving top and bottom line.
year revenue net profit
2010 S$620 mil S$4.2 mil
2011 S$612 mil S$5.9 mil
2012 S$731 mil S$6.3 mil
Company reports in US$. Exchange rate used US$1 : S$1.25
3. very decent revenue.
there are not that many listed companies which have this level of
revenue. For a company to be able to do a sales of $700+ mil
is really
quite commendable. There is alot of intangible value here.
4. price below nav.
current price of 8.9cts is below its nav of 11.7 cts.
5. management sounds positive of further growth.
Management comment .. quote :
" We foresee improving consumer sentiments in China and South East
Asia and more stability in the US economy.
This landscape augurs well
for our business.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Group is optimistic about
the performance of its businesses in China and South East Asia
in the
new financial year. In addition to its existing business, it will also
be looking for partnerships that can value add and enhance the growth of
the organisation."
6. decent pe ratio.
its current pe is around 7.2x. For a Singapore company with growth potential a pe of 7.2 is considered low in my view.
7. absolute low price.
it has an absolute low price of 8.9 cts per share as on 8 feb 2013.
A quick summary:
I like the company because it has a high dividend yield, is trading
below its nav, has shown improvement in its top n bottom line
with very
decent revenue, a reasonable pe and positive management comments.
Notes(1): Its a Singapore company listed on 7 jan 2004 at a price of 25.7 cts.
Excelpoint
is an electronic components distributor serving customers who are
primarily original equipment manufacturers (OEM),
contract manufacturers
and sub-contractors for a wide range of industries including that of
telecommunications, consumer electronics,
industrial and instrumentation
electronics, automotive, computers and computer peripherals et cetera.
Their businesses can be divided
into 2 major segments, distribution
and design-in services.(source ShareInvestor)
Notes (2): the 52 weeks low n high is 5.2 to 8.9 cts per share.
Currently it is trading at its 52 weeks high. The highest ever traded
was
41cts on 26 Jan 2004 and lowest was 2 cts on 2nd march 2009.
Above is not an invitation to buy or sell. Should you have interest
in the company, please do your own analysis n conclusion.
Fyi i am
heavily vested in view of the high dividend n potential future growth
(may/maynot happen).

interest may come back when they go cum dividend of 0.8cts which is close to 8% yield.

last done 10 cts 4.15pm
done at 9.7 cts
last year dividend was paid in May.
Excelpoint is a singapore company. Was listed in 2004 at 25.7 cts (after adjustment)
Profit trend has been encouraging and dividend yield excellent @8.4% on current price of 9.5 cts.
The same level of dividend was paid out the year before (year ending 2011).
In 2 years one can get a dividend of 1.6cts from a company w improving top n bottom .. i think that's a fantastic deal.
Note : Scroll to the bottom to see the original posting for more details.
Penny stocks give the biggest profit potential, provided we catch it before they surge.
But after they have started to surge, it is already too late to get in
