Q: Where are you bullish?
A: One of my largest holdings is Ming Fai International Holdings, which manufactures and supplies lotions and shampoos for high-end hotels globally. I first invested in 2014. The valuation was very cheap and the core business generated north of HK$100 million ($12.9 million) in free cash flow versus an enterprise value of around HK$250 million. But they made a big mistake towards the end of 2010 when they acquired a retail business in China. Generally speaking, whenever a manufacturing business decides to go into retail it's always a red flag. The business dynamics are different. It rarely works out and in the case of Ming Fai it was a complete disaster.
Q: How so?
A: Retail sales plummeted and they had big losses on relative low revenue figures. Management realized they made a mistake, so they started to cut down on their retail point of sales. I think within the next two years you will see a much smaller figure on losses. I expect the core amenities manufacturing business to grow by mid-single digits per annum on the back of growth in Chinese markets over the next three-to-five years
