Hi @JacobChong

ESG is achieved when a company meets the ESG requirements while operating. For example, in terms of the environment, when producing e-cigarette products, companies can implement measures to reduce pollution during the manufacturing process. In terms of social responsibility, companies can ensure that they follow all standard operating procedures during manufacturing and fulfill employee rights. In terms of governance, companies need to comply with government policies and operate their businesses ethically.

@AlanKLNg28 Yes. Mirzan Bin Mahathir owned the company

Hi @gohkimhock, here is the clarify for the Tax expense, there are 2 type of tax expenses which is "Current tax and deferred tax" & "Additional tax for prior years".

The current tax and deferred tax :
FYE 2021: RM 9.05 mil
FYE 2020: RM 1.79 mil
FYE 2019: RM 804k

The additional tax for prior years
FYE 2021: RM 25.70 mil
FYE 2020: -
FYE 2019: -

The additional tax is one off tax, therefore we only exclude the RM 25.70 mil of additional tax for prior year to get the adjusted figure under the margin part.

The one-off liability and penalty amounting to RM25.7 million for the years of assessment (YA) 2014 to 2020 ? which was recognised in FY2021 ? is in respect of non-approved locations for certain milk processing plants located in Larkin. (Source: theedgemarket)

@EatCoconutCanWin PE 70 including the one-off tax payment. The adjusted PE should around 36 times

This values the company at approximately 69 times its FY2021 (ended March 31) profit of RM36.2 million and 36 times its adjusted profit of RM69 million, after taking into consideration factors that include one-off tax liability expenses which are not part of its core earnings.
