Bottom line up front: Kin Yat Holdings (0638.HK) is a stock selling at multi-year lows with a large discount to tangible book value, growing tangible book value per share, and high insider ownership.
I like to keep it simple when it comes to buying stocks. I want stocks that can be easily identified as being well-positioned for a large rise. That includes the following characteristics:
- Cheap on a net tangible asset basis (earnings is too noisy)
- An established business and stock price history (at least 10 years)
- Has a "good" chart (basically, past pricing history shows that it can have a large rise if given the chance)
- Low share turnover
- No major share dilution
- Small market cap (less than 50M USD)
- Low public float
- High insider ownership
Market cap: 285.3M HKD (36.5M USD)
Share price: 0.65 HKD (0.083 USD)
Shares outstanding: 438.96M
Shares in public float: 137.77M
1-month share turnover %: 0.70%
Tangible Book Value per share: 3.57 HKD

Generally, I don't particularly care what a company's business is, as long as it's viable. The Company's been around since 1981, so that's good enough.

Price History
This is generally what I like to see, a series of large rises and falls over a couple of decades.
The stock had a rise of over 200% in early 2021 on high volume and has been on a downtrend ever since. Volume has dried up. Although I'd usually prefer a stock trade sideways for a while, I don't mind buying when it's in the low range of the chart like this.
Total Share Outstanding
There has been a very modest increase in the number of shares outstanding over the past decade, so no major share dilution.
Net Debt
The trend for net debt over the past 3 years is downward, which is a good sign that the Company won't be facing solvency issues soon.
Tangible Book Value / Share
The trend for tangible book value per share is upward, which is a good indicator that the Company's business is not rapidly deteriorating.
Balance Sheet
Insider Ownership
Risks
- The Company does have operations in China, which a lot of people apparently think is a risk
- The debt trend may reverse and the Company faces solvency issues
