Since then, the stock has gained 33.8%, and added 10 sen or 7.5% to RM1.43 over the past three days. With the stronger USD and improving overseas markets, timber stocks have seen renewed interest.

Net profit ranged from RM10 million to RM16 million over the past five years. The company has been building its cash pile with net cash of RM60.4 million in 2014, up from RM28.8 million in 2010.
