A fire broke out at Challenger's Funan Digitalife Mall outlet today

There were no injuries resulting from the Incident. The full extent of the losses can only be ascertained after detailed assessments.
The Company is currently liaising with its insurers on the estimated losses and claims under its policies

Slowly and steadily, Challenger has expanded its business and secured and defended its strong niche market position as the leading IT products retail chain in Singapore. Of course, the greatest achievement is under CEO Loo Leong Thye Challenger has been able to maintain steady profitability and pay out great twice-a-year dividends for a long time now. I just hope that the right timing for Loo to push ahead to ramp up its retail chain in Malaysia will come soon. Having penetrated into West Malaysia and been operating there for a few years now, Challenger should have by now built up a team of trusted and experienced local managers/supervisors in Malaysia.

The financial statements are quite strong. I think the capacity for growth lies in Malaysia. Revenue in Malaysia doubled from 2010 to 2011. Has anyone got any information on how the IT retail industry is like in Malaysia?

Just taking a clue from recent Courts Asia IPO's prospectus
Number of operating store
Singapore : 13
Malaysia : 55
Revenue
Singapore : 4803 SGDm
Malaysia : 8109 MYRm
There is much to be achieved by Challenger in Malaysia

I don't think so. Even there is an impact, insurance should cover it.

Currently trading at close to PE 9, still an easy buy
