LANKEM DEVELOPMENTS PLC : LDEV.N0000 : CSE
Updated
Overview
LDEV is the parent company of AGARAPATANA PLANTATIONS PLC (AGPL.N0000) and 98% of group revenue of LDEV is from AGPL.
Strategy
1. Getting exposure to a probable interim dividend expected to be LKR 2.00.
LDEV subsidiary AGPL declared an interim dividend of LKR 1.00 payable on 28th Oct. 2024 which will generate LKR 239M as net dividend (after tax) proceeds for LDEV. As LDEV doesn't have bank borrowings we can assume this dividend receipt will be re-distributed as a dividend to LDEV shareholders. If the board decided to distribute the entire amount, it can be an interim dividend of LKR 2.00.
Assumption: Not deciding to utilize the proceeds in settling intercompany balances.
2. Getting exposure to a continuous dividend stream and exposure to one of the best performing plantation companies in CSE.
AGPL is currently with almost zero net borrowings. If tea prices remain @ current levels, we can expect the dividend stream will continue with enhancements.
EPS FY 2023 = LKR 1.20
EPS 1Q 2024 = LKR 0.71 (If tea prices remain @ current levels with current yields, we can assume a FWD EPS for FY 2024 = LKR 2.84)
Fundamentals
1. FY 2023 earnings
* FY 2023 EPS LKR 1.90
2. Q1 2024 earnings
* 1Q 2024 EPS LKR 1.52
* Assuming AGPL managed to maintain current earnings we can assume a FWD EPS of LKR 6.00 for LDEV. (FWD PE 3)
52 Week Price Range
High : LKR 23.90
Low : LKR 13.80
All time high LKR 38.90
Technical Analysis (Chart Patterns)
* LDEV had created a Descending Wedge pattern during the 2-year price correction and another wedge pattern during last 10 months of consolidation process. During last week both of these patterns recorded break outs.
Potential Pattern Targets
* 10-month consolidation wedge pattern target LKR 22.80
* 2-year descending wedge pattern target LKR 35.30
