looks undervalued but dividends flat at 1c for donkey years.

Yep very steady dividends with net cash >50% Mcap and RNAV of possibly ~30cents+. Dividend of 1c makes a yield >5%.

Earnings wise, they have just turned around from loss to profit so pretty much business has bottomed out, upturn more likely. Steady 600k+ rental income is also a good baseline for their profits.

Management is headed by a few top engineers, one director involved with A*STAR.

Pretty confident this value counter won't disappoint in the long term.

As far as I can search, company has never done share buyback before, so maybe that was the catalyst.

Is it trying to keep above 20cts so that it can meet the sgx new rules by next yr? Maybe it is cheaper this way? Ha...

Did a short writeup. Hope I got the numbers correct. (My 2nd time doing an analysis so might some calculations may be wrong)

Powermatic Data system Ltd

This is a company specialising in distribution of IT products.

With Cash at $18749 and Properties valued at $18608. This company has a Net tangible asset value of $37357. From its balance sheet it does not have any long term liabilities. So current liabilities stand at $3646. So with its share base of 173289, Powermatic data system ltd has a NTA per share of 0.194 which it is trading now at about 8% discount(current share price is 0.182).

However you need to take note that this is an illiquid stock so collecting this share will take lots of time. Let us take a look at its dividends history.

They have given dividends from 1993 - 2003 and then stopped until 2008. Lets take a look at the dividends history since 2008. (Note this data was retrieved from an app and may not be 100% accurate) Ignoring the 2003- 2008 period. It maintains a steady dividend stream of $0.01. No real increase in dividends over the years.

2008 - $0.01
2009 - $0.01
2010 - $0.01
2011 - $0.01
2012 - $0.01
2013 - $0.01
2014 - $0.01

Vested in it due to the steady stream of dividends and the assumption that the dividends can be maintain. This is a case of buy the assets and get the business for free. By the way I am still collecting it at $0.182. Patience is the key. No point pressing up the price as this will affect my dividends yield. Strategy for me is to collect dividends(>5%) for this counter while waiting for value to be unlocked.

Not really sure man. Need to do some research and dig deeper.

I believe the price of PDS was around 8 to 9cents a share then. One or more substantial shareholder(s) emerged and managed to convince the conservative management that they have the financial resources to give out a dividend sustainably based on their steady cashflow and cash on balance sheet. Based on the average purchase price then, dividend yield is easily over 10%. The importance of staying convinced in your convictions.
