Catch DLADY before it rockets up very soon! 10/10/2021 8:11 AM James_Bond FrieslandCampina, one of the world largest dairy companies, is the largest shareholder in DLady (>50% shareholding), has been transferring cutting edge and robust milk production technology to DLady Malaysia, and therefore, not only transforming DLady milk the most nutritious and the safest to drink, but also the most cost effective in the ever competitive market. Milk quality and safety of FrieslandCampina (DLady) are recognised worldwide by obtaining GMP and HACCP certificates. Interestingly, Friso Gold/ MaxGro products are one of the best seller milk powders for the newborn, toddler, and children. DLady also producing Frisomum for the consumption of pregnant and lactating mums. There are also a variety of DLady fresh milk and yogurts for teenagers and adults to enjoy consuming. Hence, DLady products cater for all, from newborn to adulthood. Not to forget, DLady able to maintain great track record of more than 70% dividend payout for the past 5 years. Comparing with Farmfresh, local dairy company, selling expensive, beyond affordable, milk to locals with disputable quality, questionable R&D, poorer cash reserve comparatively, no dividend payout track record (claiming 25% dividend payout in the future). We hv doubt in such small company can strive out in fighting the market share among DLady, Nestle and F&N. DLady, the Leading Dairy Company, is the BEST! Choice is yours! Good Luck! 10/10/2021 10:24 PM dompeilee I prefer the taste of Goodday...their gobbling of DLady's mkt share is EVIDENT in the bottom & toplines PLUS the collapse in DLady's price below Mar 2020 lows 11/10/2021 8:15 PM Uniglobe Farmfresh IPO going to be superbly oversubscribe and going to have plenty of cash to grow and expand. The real facts, Farmfresh milk are much fresher, lesser preservative and better than Dlady milk. Many established cafes such as Starbucks is using better and fresher milk of Farmfresh instead of Dlady milk. More and more cafes are switching from dlady milk to farmfresh milk. Farmfresh has better farm and better breed of cows compared to dlady. The mentality of foreigners is better than locals were over. Dlady must step aside for Farmfresh. soon, dlady will goes under 30.00 especially after the listing of FarmFresh. 14/10/2021 5:12 PM MorningGlory123 Skyrocket coming soon since foreign funds are coming back to Malaysia equities.

I found a new video talking about it https://youtu.be/y9WoFzwzAt0 19/10/2021 9:44 PM Thirai Thiraviam Dutch Lady's last Qtr results are certainly encouraging. However, I think it is still too early to say if the company has turned the bend. While the Q-on-Q results are good, the operating margins are still low compared to 2016. This is the most critical factor, to me. Does anyone here know what the company is doing to improve its margins? 09/12/2021 10:21 AM dam82 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-01-24/bain-capital-carlyle-said-to-vie-for-dutch-infant-formula-friso It looks like they selling their IFT business what is the impact for DLADY in malaysia ?

Intelligent. Industrious. 3iii (iiinvestsmart)$â¬Â£Â¥ Summary Revenues and profits had been flat over the last 5 years. Slight increased in revenues over these years, but profit margins not increasing due to rising costs of raw materials. Operating expenses were well contained. Interest expenses remained low/negligible. Dividends had been cut drastically over the last 5 years. Many funds looking for dividends had sold down this counter as dictated by their funds requirements. Capital expenditures had increased over the last 2 years and will remain high until 2025. Due to high capital expenditures already planned for the next few years, dividends will remain at present levels for the near term, as company needs to invest its funds into PPE for future growth. Capital expenditures, though high the last 2 years, had been funded from internal generated cash and not from borrowings. Company borrowings remained negligible to date despite huge capex the last 2 years. In 2021, cash in hand remained remarkably high. 13/12/2022 11:57 PM Integrity. Intelligent.

Your first reaction would not have been, “What a great bargain!” but, “What’s wrong with Dutch Lady?” Dutch Lady should be inspected and re-inspected for possible flaws. Among possible reasons for its share price being sold down are: - Irrational or indifferent selling alone may have made it cheap, but there may be more fundamental reasons for the depressed price. - Perhaps there are contingent liabilities or pending litigation that you are unaware of. - Maybe a competitor is preparing to introduce a superior product. You can have some comfort should you conclude that the price is not depressed for an undisclosed fundamental business reason. When reason for undervaluation can be clearly identified, the outcome is also more predictable 01/01/2023 8:11 PM dam82 Beg to differ on DLADY , their product is very old school no innovation ..or too boring .. they don’t bring their trademark brands from their parent company to Malaysia ….big factory nice to have but still no clear direction … better buy HEIM or CARLSBERG .. 01/01/2023 8:31 PM Integrity.
