Care to explain the good potential....
I'm interested to know more about it....
Probation Member joined today & first post is about FF IPO 😬
Sorry for the late respond. Anyways, this is just my 2 cents opinion (not an investment advice), please read FF draft prospectus (available at SC's website) and/or seek professional advice and do your own assessment.
Industry/market overview
1) Fresh milk supply in Malaysia is still not enough (also shortage for other countries in the region)
2) Our milk pricing is one of the highest in the world due to 1) above
3) due to 1) and 2) above, new players like Felda and a few foreign players are looking to or have started to invest into dairy farm in Malaysia
FF's strength
1) really fresh milk from local farm in the country, their commitment of delivery from farm to market within 48 hours is commendable as compared to imported "fresh" milk
2) they have their own delivery system/logistics consisting of retailers and agents (including small players like housewives, single parents, etc.)
3) still expanding by opening new farms near Taiping and yet to expand overseas
4) strong market share in Malaysia and still growing
5) currently profitable with potential for dividends going forward
6) FF have their own hybrid dairy cows (suited for local weather) and they owned a cow genetic company in Australia
7) yet to fully diversify their portfolio of offerings/products
Demand for FF shares
1) those investors which like to have sustainability related shares would look out for companies like FF (please read FF's write up on sustainability in their prospectus)
2) major local funds would take up FF shares since there not many (or even non existent listed local dairy farm)
3) being in agri and food business coupled with focus on food security, this makes FF shares strategic in nature
Challenges for FF
1) since milk is not enough here and pricing is good, many new entrant will come in and compete
2) cost of feed is not within their control totally, still need to import
3) manpower, not enough capable dairy farmer around cause it is hard work and need to be passionate with the work
