PTT has been quietly expanding across the logistics value chain: completing an intelligent logistics hub in Penang for Jabil, a global semiconductor and supply chain leader, progressing new warehouse automation systems with Sime Darby and Mydin, adding warehouse automation capabilities from vTradEx and CNANC, and moving into logistics software and after-sales services.
Put these announcements together and the picture becomes more interesting.
PTT is no longer just building warehouses. It is increasingly positioning itself to design, build, automate and support logistics facilities after completion.
For investors, that potentially means a wider addressable market, deeper involvement with each customer and more opportunities to generate income beyond the initial construction contract.
The next thing worth watching is whether PTT can use these completed projects as references to win more MNC-led logistics mandates.
PTT shifting from just simple construction to the full tech-driven logistics automation game really makes them a much more scalable play for the long run if they can actually snag more of those juicy MNC contracts.
This is just my personal view, didn't look that deep into the company la, but if I were investing, I would wait and see first.
Even though the company is growing quite fast, but the company's growth hasn't translated into proper cash flow for company yet, OCF is still -27 mil in FY23, and -18 mil in FY22 due to skyrocketting inventories. Rise in inventories shouldn't be alarming since company orderbook has increased to >RM400 mil. But company had to fund it with a >30 mil in borrowings.
