So what are the 2 points to consider before investing in MyEG?
#1. MyCC fined MyEG RM2.27million
The Malaysia
Competition Commission (MyCC) fined MyEG for abusing its dominant
position in the way it manages the online foreign workers permit (PLKS)
renewals. For more information, you may read it HERE.
MyEG
is in a near-monopoly position with strong support from the government
as a concessionaire. The lesson is that it is not always good to be in a
monopolistic position because it will trigger unnecessary attentions.
#2. Receivables ratio SHOT up to 51% as of 2015
In
FY2015, for every RM of sales made, MyEG had RM0.51 of receivables. In
other words, revenues increased by 29% but trade receivables increased
by 282%! Yet, the management did not provide satisfactory explanations
in the annual report.
More
often than not, when companies find it hard to increase sales, they
loose credit terms to attract more sales. The BIG jump in receivables
ratio is something that an investor needs to take into account before
investing.
Conclusion

MyEG has certainly made incredible returns to its shareholders over the past 3 years. Whether to buy, sell or continue to hold on to MyEG, I think the above 2 points should not be ignored by the investors.
