Investment Recommendation
For our group’s discussion, we are willing to invest on this company. We made the
decision according to three factors which are profitability, stability and share price. A company’s
financial situation can be analyses by these three factors and we are going to explain why we
made the choice and eleborate about the reason.
First of all, there’s some incresement of LBS Bina Berhad which is shown obviouly in
the calculation such as, Return of Equility(ROE), Net Profit Margin Ratio(NPM), Gross Profit
Margin Ratio(GPM), Total Debt Ratio(TDR) and Interest Coverage Ratio(ICR). On the other
hand, there is also some decreasement that shown on calculation table such as General Expenses
Ratio(GER), Working Capital Ratio(WCR) and Inventory Turnover Ratio(ITR).
The profit of the company is definitely earning and is quite high compare to the previous
year, so we can invest on this company and it surely will have an amount of profit for the future
years. Furthermore, Total Debt Ratio(TDR) of the company had decrease so the issue of
company gone bankrupt can be neglect although the Working Capital Ratio(WCR) of the
company had decreased but it doesn’t affect the company much.
However, the market share of LBS Bina Berhad is increasing but it did dropped on a few
points so it doesn’t has a stable and strong foundation for the share. But as a investor, we do need
to bet on the market sometimes so we neglect about the stability of the company since the market
share was increasing.
At last, our group member trusted that the company will have a good result as it will earn
more profit and the market share will be more stable as the time past.
