I do. Just bought a panasonic washing machine this year on march, a panasonic refrigerator in 2024, a panasonic aircond installed for my bedroom as well as fan in 2021. By far all of them works flawlessly. I believe in the brand reliability since I grew up with some of brand household item bought by my parents since I was child still work till today such as rice cooker and cloths iron. Hopefully it will last as long.

Revenue grows every year and yet the net profit stays flat (declining profit margin). That in it self tells something. Management have to do something about it to convince investor that they're spending the money wisely.

Profit margin has been getting lower and lower since last few years even though the revenue grow stronger. Wonder where does all the money goes to...

share price should drop to around rm20 per share since every 2 shares liquidate to becoming 3 shares ie 2/3 of the current price of around rm30.

Maybank dividend maintain almost the same for years even though its share price goes up and down. Thats why its div yield percentage goes up and down. This would also means that there will be time where the percentage looks low enough to disinterest dividend stock buyer.

The thing about stock price and DY is interesting. If the price of the stock keep on going up, in order to maintain the same DY percentage the company would have to give out higher amount of dividend value. This will definitely give more advantage to the earlier buyer since their DY percentage will keep on increasing based on the earlier lower price they paid. But if the company paying out the same amount of dividend, the div yield percentage will be lower for new buyer. Maybank is an example.

When it have better PE ratio and DY. Current price isn't really that attractive anymore. There's better buy out there. Fundamentally this is a great company but not a good buy with the current price. At least from my point of view.

Thanks for the explanation. That's kind of make sense. Hopefully they would improve their digital banking segment as there's still lots of room for improvement.

why is the revenue increasing quarter to quarter but net profit didn't? Did the operational cost increase? Profit margin keep on dropping. Management need to do something to keep the companies net profit tally with the increasing revenue.

I've been waiting for it to go down to top up some more this last few month but it goes up instead. Even though I've had quite a good capital gain but I'm not really happy that I couldn't add up some more units. It's a mix feelings...
