FINANCIAL COMMENTS

 

 

Profitability:

:

Return on Shareholder Funds

:

Return on Net Assets

:

Acceptable

[

]


The SC's turnover increased steadily as the demand for its products / services increased due to the goodwill built up over the years. The SC's management have been efficient in controlling its operating costs. The SC's management had generated acceptable return for its shareholders using its assets.

Working Capital Control:

Stock Ratio

:

Favourable

[

34 Days

]

Debtors Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

150 Days

]

Creditors Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

92 Days

]


The SC's stocks were moving fast thus reducing its holding cost. This had reduced funds being tied up in stocks. The SC's debtors ratio was high. The SC should tighten its credit control and improve its collection period. The unfavourable creditors' ratio could be due to the SC taking advantage of the credit granted by its suppliers. However this may affect the goodwill between the SC and its suppliers and the SC may inadvertently have to pay more for its future supplies.

Liquidity:

Liquid Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

0.78 Times

]

Current Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

0.94 Times

]


A low liquid ratio means that the SC may be facing working capital deficiency. If the SC cannot obtain additional financing or injection of fresh capital, it may face difficulties in meeting its short term obligations.

 


Solvency

Interest Cover

:

Acceptable

[

6.66 Times

]

Gearing Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.59 Times

]


The SC's interest cover was slightly low. If there is no sharp fall in its profit or sudden increase in the interest rates, we believe the SC is able to generate sufficient income to service its interest and repay the loans. The SC was lowly geared thus it had a low financial risk. The SC was mainly financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated funds. In times of economic slowdown / downturn, the SC being a lowly geared company, will be able to compete better than those companies which are highly geared in the same industry.

Overall Accessment:

Generally, the SC's performance has improved with higher turnover and profit. Due to its weak liquidity position, the SC will be faced with problems in meeting all its short term obligations if no short term loan is obtained or additional capital injected into the SC. The SC had an acceptable interest cover. If there is no sudden sharp increase in interest rate or fall in the SC's profit, we do believe the SC is able to generate sufficient cash flow to service its interest payment. The SC as a lowly geared company, will be more secured compared to those highly geared companies. It has the ability to meet all its long term obligations.

Overall financial condition of the SC : LIMITED

INDUSTRY :

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC

 

 

 


The electrical and electronics (E&E) industry is the key driver of Malaysia's industrial development and a major contributor to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, export earnings, investment and employment. Malaysia is a leading exporter of semiconductors and room air-conditioners, while the production of electronics goods such as telecommunications equipment, computers and computer peripherals is expanding rapidly.


Output of E&E industry declined by 5.6% (January-June 2006: 13.4%) on account of weak global demand. Export-oriented industries contracted in the first six months of 2007 following the downtrend in the global demand for E&E products, particularly office and accounting machines as well as video and communication apparatus.


Export growth is expected to pick up momentum towards the second half in 2007 supported by firm commodity prices and an upswing in the global demand for electrical and electronics products (E&E). For 2007, gross exports are expected to remain strong despite a moderate expansion in global trade.


The slow pick up of demand from the electrical and electronic sector is expected to be a drag on Malaysia's export growth in September 2007. The exports are expected to post an average growth of 0.42 per cent year-on year, supported by imports which may average 4.11 per cent year-on year and trade balance of about RM8.53 billion. Malaysia's export, which had remained soft for a couple of months expanded by a marginal 0.3 per cent year-on-year in August 2007 due to a 10.9 per-cent increase in the electric and electronic (E&E) products from July 2007.


The E&E industry continues to expand and reinvest, bringing in new technology and processes to move further up the value chain. This is reflected in the total approved investments and increasing capital-investment-to-employee ratio (CIPE). As total investment approved for the industry in the first half of this year was RM8.5 billion, Malaysia is on track to achieve the IMP3 target.


The Third Industrial Master Plan (IMP3) provides a clear plan of action to move the E&E industry up the value chain. Among the strategies are:


1) Strengthening and deepening the semiconductors sub-segment;


2) Deepening and widening the development of the information and communications technology (ICT)


value chain;


3) Intensifying research and development (R&D) and design activities;


4) Promoting the application of new and emerging technologies;


5) Integrating domestic companies into the regional and global supply chain; and


6) Making available skilled workforce.


In addition, the IMP3 proposed strengthening of institutional support, including a comprehensive package of support schemes to encourage investments as well as expanding the role and functions of industry associations. With the comprehensive implementation of action plans, the E&E industry is anticipated to further strengthen and migrate towards knowledge-intensive, high-technology and higher value-added activities.


Robust global demand for electrical and electronics (E&E) products, is expected to boost export- oriented industries in 2008. The rise in global demand will be supported by sustained world growth and strengthening US economy.

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Marginal Growth



COMMENTS

 

 


Incorporated in 1991, the SC is principally engaged in manufacturing and trading of marine engine, power generator and related spare parts. The SC is a private limited company with total paid up capital of RM2.3million, it is under the control of Teoh's family members. Having been in the market for over a decade, the SC should have established a satisfactory reputation in the market.


Over the years, the SC has built up a diversified clientele base in both local and overseas countries. Currently, domestic market remains its biggest market, contributing 90% to its revenue with the balance coming from the overseas market. Therefore, the SC's business risk is low in view of its wide market segment. Presently, the business activities of the SC is overseen by Managing Director, Teoh Hai Hin assisted by 100 employees in its operations. More efforts are expected from the management in order to compete with its rivals.


During the financial year 2007, the SC's turnover grew slightly by 1.51% to RM40.56million. The improvement of its turnover has led its pre-tax profit rose 18.87% from RM710,450 to RM844,569. Return on shareholders' funds was at an acceptable range, indicating that the management was efficient in utilising its funds to generate returns. However, the SC's liquidity ratio was slightly low at 0.78 times, which demonstrates that the SC was not be able to repay all its short term obligations. Being a lowly geared company, the SC faces low financial risk.


Investigation revealed that the SC sources all its raw materials from overseas suppliers. Being highly dependent on overseas suppliers, the SC is subjected to currency fluctuation risk.


Based on our historical financial data, the SC's overall payment habit is fair. The SC is clear of any litigation.


The industry expects to enjoy a marginal growth in the near term. The SC however faces stiff competition in the market. With the normal outlook of the industry performance, the SC should adopt more competitive strategies in order to capture high market shares as well as compete with other players in the same industry.


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