Lundal got highlight in Maxis AR 2013- that 2015 MAXIS may not generous to give 8 sen every qtr.

i dont hv crystall ball....

someting like this...

the dividend has to be reduced...Maxis borrowings too high...they were basically borrowing money to pay shareholders dividends

To be realistic, expect DPS=EPS i.e. 100% payout

To be even more realistic and sustainable, expect 90% payout ratio i.e. DPS = 90% x EPS

Telcos usually can pay close to 100% of EPS...DiGi also has been doing that. But Maxis borrowings higher, they have to pare down somehow...so, I guess u project 90% payout should be realistic

When Maxis pays DPS=EPS, the dividend attraction is no longer there, dividend yield would be similar to DiGi's, hence the current selldown...I presume

It is probably the telco sector problem. Even Celcom is now experiencing a drop in revenue. Over-the-top application like whatsapp has caused a drastic drop in SMS revenue. It won't be long voice revenue would be hit. They have to identify new revenue streams besides the traditional ones. If you can find other shares paying more dividend than them, it is better to place yr bets there. But I am doubtful you can. I think it is paying a decent dividend even if it is a bit less. While some other shares can report high EPs but is stingy when comes to dividends.

DiGi is big with Banglas, Myanmars and Viet amois

Prepaid segment, DiGi is still the main leader

i recently look at TA chart.....once rebound you better quick cut...the chart show not good.

you can use chart nexus

or

FA not good...the chart will show like rabbit jumping from high ground.

Can you expect MAXIS ONE Plan overhelming?

I did something like that  with a RM78 package from Digi & ended with regrets. One day recently at the G.Hospital, in the heart of the town,  I could only access Google page but I am not able to access CNN website &  other website despite all the news that Digi has upgraded their network.
I hold both Digi & Maxis shares. And weeks ago I have already pared down my shares in the telco sector. Maxis is on its corrective wave down after completion of its 5 waves. And Digi looks having completed its 5 waves.

Clear all position @ 6.33

My average cost is 6.24
Thus profit @ 0.09/share
