Other Investigations

FINANCIAL COMMENTS

 

The financial summary of the SC in Year 2006 showed that it was financially STABLE. The SC generated an acceptable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the SC was efficient in utilising its shareholders' funds to generate favourable returns. The SC was in good liquidity position with its current liabilities  well covered by its current assets. With its net current assets, the SC should be able to repay its short term obligations. A low liabilities ratio has minimised the SC's financial risk.

           

Overall financial condition of the SC: STABLE

 

 

COMMENTS

 

Established in 1995, the SC is principally engaged in the trading of food ingredient. The SC offers a wide range of food ingredients for all kinds of food flavours which are used for processing ice-cream, sweet, junk food and etc. With its long presence in the industry coupled with its vast experiences in the business, the SC should have built up a certain goodwill with its client over times.

           

In order to further grow the business, the SC has broaden its reach and penetrated into the global market. The wider range of its market segments has benefited the SC in terms of higher earnings and      minimised its business risk. The management of the SC is overseen by Managing Director Wong Yee Thiam and assisted by 12 staffs. Overall the management capability of the SC is average.

           

Based on the latest financial year, the SC posted  pre-tax profit of RM1.71 million and its turnover stood at RM21.77 million. The SC generated an acceptable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the SC was efficient in utilising its shareholders' funds to generate favourable returns. Good cash flow management has enabled the SC to meet its short term obligations as and when they fall due. The SC posted a low liability ratio indicating that the SC faces low financial risk. Moreover given a healthy net worth standing at RM6.25 million the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.

           

Investigation revealed that the SC sources its raw materials from both local and overseas countries. As a result, the SC is exposed to foreign currency fluctuation risk.

           

The rising population, improvement in quality of life and higher propensity to consume will further increase the demand for food products. We believe that the encouraging demand for the SC's products would present more business opportunities for the SC. However, the SC is facing increasing competition from other companies. Hence, the SC should improve its management capability and explore more new market segments in order to have a stable standing in the industry.           

           

In view of the above we recommend credit be granted to the SC normally.
