📌 PENUTUP

IPO ini:

Combination jarang: Growth + Profit + Cash + High ROE

Biasanya IPO ada 1–2 sahaja — ini ada hampir semua.

Baik — sekarang kita boleh buat valuation yang lebih tepat sebab dah ada harga IPO = RM0.70

💰 1. CURRENT VALUATION (IPO)

📌 PER IPO

[
PER = 0.70 / 0.3792 ≈ 18.5x
]

• 20x – 23x PER

Expected Price:

🔥 4. UPSIDE DRIVER

Kenapa boleh naik:

✅ Strong earnings growth (PAT CAGR ~61%)
✅ High ROE (>50%)
✅ Net cash (rare for IPO)
✅ F&B = retail favourite sector
✅ Margin improving trend

⚠️ 5. DOWNSIDE RISK

Jika market weak:

• Fair value floor ≈ RM0.68
  👉 Downside:
  ➡️ -3% hingga -5% sahaja

👉 Risk-reward ratio:

Upside 20% vs Downside ~5% → VERY ATTRACTIVE

🧠 6. SMART MONEY VIEW

Ini bukan IPO biasa:

👉 Banyak IPO:

• growth tinggi ❌ profit rendah
• atau profit ada ❌ growth slow

👉 Ini ada kedua-duanya (rare)

📊 FINAL VERDICT (UPDATED)

🎯 IPO PRICE: RM0.70

✅ Short Term (Listing Gain)

👉 STRONG BUY

• Expected upside: +15% hingga +25%
• Risk rendah (valuation reasonable)

🟡 Medium Term
