Recent Financial Results (UPDATED!)
In QE31/3/2016, net profit dropped 76% q-o-q or 79% y-o-y to RM3.7 million while revenue dropped 24% q-o-q or 34% y-o-y to RM59 million. The lower revenue and net profit achieved in the quarter was mainly due to lower volume loadings from some of the Group's customer as a result of reduction in end customers' demand and forex loss of RM4.8 million. However, there are reports that demand may be weak going forward due to slower demand for some electronic products, such as smartphones.

The top-line and bottom-line dipped as had happened in the past 3 years.

Valuation
Gtronic (at RM4.21 as at 11.00am) is now trading at a PER of 15.8X (based on last 4 quarters' EPS of 25.35 sen). If its recent growth can sustain, this PER is deemed fair. DY is decent at 3.1%.
Conclusion
Based on satisfactory financial performance in the past and fairly reasonable valuation, Gtronic could be a good stock for long-term investment. As the technical outlook has turned negative, any buying should be carried out SLOWLY at the cluster for support between RM3.50 & RM4.00.

Recent Financial Results
In QE31/12/2015, profits declined q-o-q mainly due to lower volume loadings from some of the Group's customer (which is attributable to lower end customers' demand) and the shut down of manufacturing hubs/customers' facilities especially in the month of December 2015. This comment should not warrant unduly concern as it has happened before in the past. However, there are reports that demand may be weak going forward due to slower demand for some electronic products, such as smartphones.
