MOTOR VECHICLE

|
|
|
Local sales of new vehicles in March 2011 surged 56.6 per cent, or 22,878
units, to an all-time high of 63,265 units over the February figure.
|
|
According to the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA), the figure was
12.7 per cent more than March 2010. However, the sales volume for April
2011 would moderate and was expected to be lower than March.
|
|
The strong sales seen in March 2011 was unusual and the adjustments of
production from the impact of the catastrophe in Japan might start to
affect supply. The sales volume for the first three months of the year 2011
increased by 7.5 per cent over the same period of year 2010.
|
|
The longer working month in March and rush for deliveries or invoicing by
companies having financial year ending on March 31 caused the higher sales
growth. Beside that, fear and anticipation of a possible short supply and
higher prices of motor vehicles caused by the catastrophe in Japan could
have also resulted in consumers buying forward.
|
|
The vehicle production in March 2011 increased to 53,124 units from the
51,579 units registered in March 2010. The passenger vehicle production in
March 2011 moved up to 49,118 units from the 47,729 units seen in the same
period of 2010 while commercial vehicle production increased to 4,006 units
from 3,850 units.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Marginal Growth
|
COMMENTS & RECOMMENDATION
|
Incorporated in 1996 as an exempt private company, the SC is
principally engaged in the dealing in auto spare parts, mechanical and auto
engineering works. Having been in the industry for over a decade, the SC
should have built up its reputation and image in the market. The SC is
considered as a medium size company with issued and paid up capital
standing at RM500,000.
|
|
Investigation revealed that the SC mainly supplies to the local market.
This narrow market segment limits its business expansion opportunities and
lowers the growth prospects. As such, its business risk is high compared to
export oriented companies. However, the SC offer the various machineary and
services for heavy-duty automatic transmissions, trucks, buses and special
purpose vehicle (SPV). This will eliminates the risk of dependency on one
business line. Overall, the management capability of the SC is average.
|
|
As the SC is registered as a Exempt Private company, it is not required to
file financial statements for public review. As such, we are unable to
ascertain its present financial health.
|
|
The SC might be exposed to the forex risk as some of its raw materials are
sourced from overseas suppliers. With its long presence in the market, it
should have developed a strong supplier. Thus, it eliminates the risk of
dependency on deliveries from a number of key suppliers and insufficient
quantities of its raw materials.
|
|
Based on our databank, the SC is clear of any litigation action
|
|
The motor vechile industry has reached its optimum level and is generally
stable. The potential growth for the industry is marginal and it is quite
competitive. It very much depends on the SC's capacity in sustaining its
performance in the market.
|
|
In view of the above, we only recommend a small amount of credit be
proceeded to the SC with guarantee.
