HG change the inventory from FIFO to Weight avg it say reason to match the system of new acquire sub. But i think the main reason is to contain the actual inventory write down.

Definite more write-down on inventory is expected. Inventory is still at a high (Some concern) and stong US against SIN still persist.

HG Metal swings to Q4 loss

By LYNETTE KHOO

HG Metal swung to a net loss of $33.27 million for the fourth quarter ended Sept 30 from a net profit of $4.81 million a year ago, due to a writedown of inventories arising from the sharp correction in steel prices in the past few months and foreign exchange losses.

But despite the quarterly loss, HG Metal still posted record earnings for the full year. Its net profit grew 25 per cent from fiscal 2007 to $22.56 million for the year ended Sept 30, thanks to the robust first nine months.

HG Metal said it will start consolidating the earnings of newly acquired BRC Asia from the first quarter ending Dec 31.

In its announcement yesterday, it said that it had written down its inventory to net realisable values and that it still expected to report record net profits & TO for fy'08 on 25/11/08.

I welcome comments on the following observations:

1. With the write down and the forthcoming expansionery budget which is likely to increase demand for HG's products. Therefore, Q1 '09 shall be positive.

2. Fy '07's net profit =$18.109m. Thus, fy '08's record net prifit will be > $18.109m.

Knightrider better wait first, i think might go below 10cent.

My logic is do a scenario on the inventory steel writedown at 10%, 20%, 30%., 40% and 50%.  Also they just buy a company, might not giv fat fat div. US look like still going to strengthen against sin.

Steel mill around the world are doing plant temporay studown due to no orders. Wait for HG to reduce their stock level first.

HG Metal to report loss for Q408

By ANGELA TAN

HG Metal Manufacturing Limited on Tuesday warned it will report a net loss for the fourth quarter of FY2008.

This is due to the sharp correction in steel prices in the last few months which had necessitated a write down of inventory to net realisable values and foreign exchange losses due to the sharp appreciation of the US dollar against the Singapore dollar.

However, the group is still expected to report record net profits and turnover for FY2008.

It will be releasing its full year and 4th quarter financial results ended 30 September 2008 on 25 November 2008.

 Alert Admin 		Only thing that is worrying me behind this stock. Is the inventory of 200-300Mil Value (It is Brought at high?) Whether all is contracted to shipyard or construction at certain price if not negative Also the recent strength in USD means buying steel in USD and selling steel in SIN for some of it customers might eat into earnings Also shipyards look like will slow down abit, based on the charter rates drop means less repair for the coming months The rest you mention are HG strength, no logic to be in this price based on balance sheet and past earnings. If really attractive, likely alot of insider will start to buy big as they got the latest numbers to digest.

 Alert Admin 		FY '08 report will be out soon. Based on 3Q report, EPS (basic) for 9 mths = 13.15 cents, NA per share =39.98 cents. If 4Q EPS = 3Q EPS = 6.72 cents, then FY '08 EPS will be 19.87cents (13.15 + 6.72), ie EPS (19.87 cents) > share price (14.5 cents last traded). What is the logic behind?
