FINANCIAL COMMENTS

 

Profitability :

Turnover                                    :           Increased          [           < 0.00% >         ]

Profit / ( Loss ) before tax           :           Decreased         [           < 0.00% >         ]

Return on Shareholder Funds      :           Favourable         [           80.26%             ]

Return on Net Assets                 :           Unfavourable      [           95.85%             ]

 

The higher turnover could be attributed to the favourable market condition. The management had succeeded in turning the SC into a profit making company. The profit could be due to better control of its operating costs and efficiency in utilising its resources. Generally the SC was profitable. The favourable return on shareholders' funds and return on net assets indicate that the SC's management was efficient in utilising the assets to generate returns.

 

Working Capital Control :

Stocks Ratio     :           Nil                    [           0 Days  ]

Debtors Ratio    :           Favourable         [           3 Days  ]

Creditors Ratio   :           Favourable         [           1 Days  ]

 

As the SC is a service oriented company, the SC does not need to keep stocks. The favourable debtors' days could be due to the good credit control measures implemented by the SC. The SC had a favourable creditors' ratio as evidenced by its favourable collection days. The SC could be taking advantage of the cash discounts and also wanting to maintain goodwill with its creditors.

 

Liquidity :

Liquid Ratio       :           Acceptable        [           0.96 Times        ]

Current Ratio     :           Unfavourable      [           0.96 Times        ]

 

The SC's liquid ratio was slightly low. This could indicate that the SC's working capital was slightly deficient. The SC will have to improve its liquidity position either by obtaining short term financing or increase its paid up capital so that it can meet all its short term obligations as and when they fall due.

 

Solvency :

Interest Cover    :           Nil                    [           0.00 Times        ]

Gearing Ratio    :           Favourable         [           0.00 Times        ]

 

The SC's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The SC had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

Overall Assessment :

The higher turnover had helped to reduce the SC's losses. The SC's liquidity was at an acceptable range. If the SC is able to obtain further short term financing, it should be able to meet all its short term obligations. The SC did not make any interest payment during the year. The SC was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The SC was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

 

Overall financial condition of the SC: STABLE

 

 

COMMENTS

 

As a private limited company, the SC is principally engaged in the recycling of waste and fibre. Over the years of its establishment, the SC has been building up contacts with its clients and competing in the industry. Being a relatively small company with issued and paid up capital of RM100,000, the SC's shareholders structure consists of 2 individual shareholders.

           

The SC's business expansion opportunities is limited as it concentrates solely on the local market and it only has a work force of 16 throughout the years. The SC is vulnerable to the changes in the local market. However, with its stable customers base its business risk is diversified. The SC's business activities are overseen by its Managing Director, Ong Leng Chunt and overall management capability of the SC is average.

           

Based on the latest financial year 2005, the SC posted pre-tax profit of RM425,579 and its turnover stood at RM7.94 million. Return on shareholders' funds of the SC was high indicating that the SC was efficient in utilising its shareholders' funds to generate favourable returns. Besides this, it also has an adequate 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. Moreover, being a zero geared company, the SC virtually has no financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business.

           

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.        

           

Based on our historical financial data, we concluded that the SC's payment is good. This implies a good credit control and the SC could be taking advantage of the cash discounts and maintain a good reputation with its creditors.

           

The industry remains robust with continuing strong global demand for its products. The steady growth in the country's economy will further enhance its business and there will be more business opportunities available for the SC in the future. In this competitive industry, the SC may face stiff competition from other players.

           

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