I'm calling a buy call.TP 3 cents worst case scenario.Best case scenario if profit rise in tandem with revenue(TP 5 cents).Can be target takeover or injection of businesses due to now just 1 cents worst 20 millions.NTA 7 cents.FA no problems.Number of shares 2.07 billions.

Came across this at their company's website. it does say that it wont have any material impact in their upcoming financial ending but it should be positive in the next financial. Interesting counter.

PENNY  is funny

1.  The new business activities related to healthcare/medical segment such as manufacturing of medical plastic products, providing Tracvirus Covid-19 related services and distribution of Covid-19 test kits contributed more than 70% increasing in the company’s total revenue in 2QR 2021. The incoming 3QR 2021 has a potential to show more upside in it revenue.

2.  If there could be other probable increase in the revenue from each segment recorded, especially a probable great jump in the revenue from the medical/healthcare businesses, I feel that the profit for 3QR 2021 has a potential to increase.

From the last quarter report, Nexgram (0096) showed us some improvement in their financial conditions. The 2QR 2021 showed that Nexgram has reported more than 100% increased in its revenue and was in the black again, after several quarters in the red.  The contribution of revenue from the company's new business namely healthcare division has increased. Other business segments namely the ICT and logistics also generated more revenue for the company. Based on the analysis on the revenue and profit growth recorded in 2QR 2021, I hope it can be useful for the reader to predict the company’s results in incoming 3QR 2021, which expected to be announced on the end of June 2021.

Let us see at Table 1 and Table 2 listed below:

TABLE 1: Financial Results for the Last Two Quarter Reports

Sources: Quarterly reports namely the 1QR 2021 and 2QR 2021.

Based on Table 1, we can see that the revenue for 2QR 2021 (quarterly accounting period ended on 31 January 2021) has increased 157% from RM12.946 million in 1QR 2021 (quarterly accounting period ended on 31 October 2021) to RM33.294 million in 2QR 2021.

The 2QR 2021 report also showed that the company reported an increase in profitability by recorded a net profit amount of RM1.406 million in 2QR 2021 compared to a net loss of RM2.814 million reported in the 1QR 2021.

                                   TABLE 2: Analysis of the Financial Results for 2QR 2021

Sources: Quarterly reports namely 1QR 2021 and 2QR 2021.

Increased in Revenue of Nexgram for 2QR 2021

Table 2 was prepared based on the 2QR 2021 results. The analysis shows that the increased in revenue recorded in 2QR 2021 was caused by:

1. a substantial increase in revenue for the company’s medical/healthcare segment. QoQ, the revenues in this segment increased more than 400%, due to mainly attributable from manufacturing of medical plastic products, providing Tracvirus Covid-19 related services and distribution of Covid-19 test kits.
2. an increased revenue (QoQ) recorded in other segments such as ICT and logistics.
3. unchanged revenue in the property segment.

The new business activities related to healthcare/medical segment such as manufacturing of medical plastic products, providing Tracvirus Covid-19 related services and distribution of Covid-19 test kits contributed more than 70% increasing in the company’s total revenue in 2QR 2021.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I cautiously feel that the medical/healthcare business has potential to show more upside in its revenue in 3QR 2021, as the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic still needs more services related to it.  Furthermore, there could be other potential additional source of revenue can be generated by Nexgram from services earned from the total of people passing through our borders via its new healthcare business related to TracAPM – SafeTravelPass sevices. The TracAPM - SafeTravelPass services should probably increase the volume of medical/healthcare revenues from quarantine collection services.

Increased in Profit of Nexgram for 2QR 2021

Analysis on Table 2 shows that the increased in revenues recorded in 2QR 2021 generated a chance for certain segments of businesses to record profitable results. For example, the medical/healthcare segment, ICT and logistics has recorded profit for each segment in 2QR 2021 compared to the losses recorded in the previous quarter report.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, if there could be other probable increase in the revenue from each segment recorded, especially a probable great jump in the revenue from the medical/healthcare businesses, I cautiously feel that the profit for 3QR 2021 has a potential to increase.

Updates on Nexgram's 3QR 2021 results:

MY PERSONAL NOTES BASED ON THE 3QR 2021 REPORT:

1.      The approved capital reduction exercise was not yet been taken into account in the 3QR 2021. Probably will be done in 4QR 2021 accounts.

2.      No specific report on the progress of the revenue from Indonesian, RAFA Agreement on the medical gloves and gown.

NOTABLE NOTES FROM THE 3QR 2021 REPORT:

1.     Healthcare continues to progress well, with government project SafeTravelPass COVID-19 entry-registration, payment and management of Quarantine-Station and  government services contributing positively in current financial year.

My personal comment: 

It’s a POSITIVE NOTE, as the company recognized there is a contribution from TracAPM – SafeTravelPass in the current financial year. The system are in a business and generating revenue to Nexgram, instead of the Malaysia is currently closing her borders.

2.    COVID-19 tests partnership with government is looking at positive return in coming quarter after much capital investment in last two (2) quarters, in view of taking part of mass screening assignment engaged with government health facilities.

My personal comment: 

It’s a POSITIVE NOTE, as the company recognized that in the last two quarters, the cost from a big capital investment has pressured the profitability of the company quarters, but the company expected more positively on its profitability in incoming quarters, thanks to Nexgram’s involvement in the mass screening of Covid-19 assignment engaged with the government health facilities.

3.        Government project capital investment continue to weight on current quarter which is normal for concession early investment.

My personal comment: 

It’s a NEGATIVE  NOTE for short term, as the company recognized that the big capital investment done on the secured government project gave more cost to the company and affected the profitability in the last quarter.

4.        The Group other healthcare segment is expanding on capacity resulted in further cost. The healthcare segment had experienced lower margin and recent success in contracts shall expect to contribute to bottom line in coming quarter.

 My personal comment: 

It’s a NEGATIVE  NOTE, as the company recognized further cost will be occurred cause by further expanding in its healthcare business. In addition, will the added cost and the current lower margin of healthcare business will give more pressure on the company’s profitability in near future?
