FINANCIAL COMMENTARY

 

Compound Annual Growth Rate

 

The company's CAGR is 14.41% (4 years).

 

CAGR is the year-over-year growth rate of a company over a specified period. Instead of looking at the average growth rate, CAGR allow users to look at the annualized growth rate of a company over a given period, a more indicative measure of growth of a company’s performance over a given period.

Profitability

We are unable to comment on Subject's profitability. Subject posted losses for the financial year end under review.

 

Liquidity

 

Current ratio stood at 0.99 times in FY09 (FY08: 1.02 times). This means that the company has SGD - SIN 0.99 of current assets for every SGD - SIN of current liability incurred.

 

A minimum figure of 1.0 would be considered the lowest limit that this figure should reach. Any business that has a current ratio near 1.0 may be heading for liquidity problems, and would need to be closely monitored. A figure greater than 2.0 would be more desirable, to act as a buffer against any short-term liquidity problems, and give creditors/bank managers a degree of comfort when granting credit/finance.

 

Leverage

We are unable to comment on Subject's leverage. Subject is in net deficit position for FY09.

 

 

Efficiency Ratio

 

We are unable to comment on Subject's return on equity. Subject posted losses for the financial year end under review.

 

We are unable to comment on Subject's return on assets. Subject posted losses for the financial year end under review.

 

Total assets turnover ratio logged at 0.87 times in FY09 (FY08: 0.78 times). This ratio measures the company's ability to make productive use of its total assets to generate sales which reflects the efficiency of the management in utilising its resources.
