Quick Review Of Analabs Earnings

Just saw that Analabs had reported its earnings last night.

Of course, I am interested in it because I was interested to see how it fared because I had blogged on this company before.

First, here's the past postings:

Flashback.

In the posting # 3, A Look At Analabs Earnings, on March 2010, I stated why I decided to blog on this stock.

• The jump in its q-q earnings has been very impressive this year.
  So why am I posting about this stock?
  Well, I had not been positive on this stock before.

Yes, I had not been positive on the stock before. See Analabs. I was NOT impressed. However, in the corporate world, anything can happen. Really. Bad companies can become good and even good companies can turn bad. Yeah, they call it turnaround. And since it was apparent that Analabs could have a positive turnaround for the better, I thought it was only fair that I blogged on it, yes, to acknowledge and to give credit. ( Yeah, Analabs jumped 13 sen to 1.39 on that morning! )

The next quarter, June 2010, I wrote the following: Update On Analabs Earnings. Let me re paste here what I wrote.

Analabs reported its earnings. It made a net profit of 3.640 million for the quarter, giving it a total earnings of 15.389 million for its fiscal year 2010.

Which is very impressive when one starts comparing it versus what it had achieved the previous year.

But then... on a q-q basis, the earnings was terrible.

Ah yes, yet another interesting issue. Should one look at a y-y comparison or should one look at the q-q comparisons?

On a y-y comparison, its 3.640/15.389 million earnings was very impressive. Last year, Q4, it made only 1.376 million and had a total earnings of 9.373 million for the fiscal year. Bravo.

On a q-q comparison, last quarter, it made 5.639 million. So the 3.640 million is rather a shocker yes? Why such a big decline?

Balance sheet comparisons.

1. Cash. This quarter 9.949 million. Last quarter 11.848 million. Last year 32.272 million.
2. Receivables. This quarter 26.924 million. Last quarter 25.275 million. Last year 7.812 million.
3. Investments in quoted securities. This quarter 14.544 million. Last quarter 14.863 million.

Fast forward present day.

Last night Analabs said it made 3.118 million from a sales revenue if 35.562 million.

I knew it was going to look impressive when compared to previous year, same period but on a q-q basis it was rather weak! Same scenario as in June 2010.



The balance sheet.

Of course the most interesting issue was the healthy cash flow. Cash balances increased by some 4.092 million.

And yeah, Analabs still had its 'investment in quoted securities'. It's worth some 14.786 million and it's property had been revalued to 90 million.

And regarding Coveright? This quarter it only contributed some 2.201 million to Analabs bottom line.

Er... do I have to put my disclaimer. I think I better. People do act rather strangely when it comes to stock markets! LOL!
