The fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the existing
and new market players. The SC's profit fell sharply because of the high
operating costs incurred. The unfavourable return on shareholders' funds and
net assets could indicate that the SC's management was inefficient in
utilising its assets to generate returns.

The SC's stocks were moving fast thus reducing its holding cost. This had
reduced funds being tied up in 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.

|
A minimum liquid ratio of 1 should be maintained by the SC in order to assure
its creditors of its ability to meet short term obligations and the SC was in
a good liquidity position. Thus, we believe the SC is able to meet all its
short term obligations as and when they fall due.

The interest cover showed that the SC was able to service the interest. The
favourable interest cover could indicate that the SC was making enough profit
to pay for the interest accrued. 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
Assessment:
The SC recorded
lower profits as its turnover showed a erratic trend. The SC's management was
unable to control its costs efficiently as its profit showed a downward
trend. The SC was in good liquidity position with its total current
liabilities well covered by its total current assets. With its current net
assets, the SC should be able to repay its short term obligations. With the
favourable interest cover, the SC could be able to service all the accrued
interest without facing any difficulties. 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 : STRONG

1120 : Service activities incidental to crude oil and natural gas
extraction excluding surveying
|
|
|
|
|
INDUSTRY :
|
CRUDE PETROLEUM
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Market sentiment is seen as driving the price of crude oil higher in fourth
quarter 2010 as signs of better-than-expected growth fuelled optimism for
prospects in year 2011.
|
|
On 21 December 2010, oil trading was bolstered by speculation that US
third-quarter gross domestic product data (GDP), scheduled to be released
later, would come in higher than the survey of 2.8%, up from a November
median estimate of 2.5% by economists.
|
|
Several weeks of declines in US crude oil stockpiles has also supported the
price of oil while a number of economists see the declines in stockpiles as
proof of increased demand from China although there were signs that demand
might be lower in 2011 as loose monetary policy was tightened amid
inflation fears.
|
|
The Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec) said in its
December report that crude oil's continued trading in the US$80 to US$90 range
was being driven by macroeconomics and bullish market sentiment following
signs of a recovery in oil demand.
|
|
Year-to-date, crude oil has risen by nearly 10% and by over 23% from a year
ago. It was trading at US$89.60 per barrel at 5pm on 21 December 2010.
However, the prices could stabilize should Opec members decide to increase
production in order to support the still weak global economic growth and it
would remain intact albeit “marginally” weaker compared with this year. The
prices will be revised upwards the 2011 growth forecast for the US economy
to 2.3% from less than 2% previously.
|
|
The economic situation could support further upside (in the oil price)
although there could be possible liquidation of long positions with no
change in fundamentals. Crude oil was briefly above US$90 per barrel on Dec
7 but fell after traders locked in profits following the highest ever
prices seen in more than two years.
|
|
Stockpiles for crude oil fell by 9.9 million barrels in the week ended Dec
10, according to a report from the US Department of Energy, a much larger
drop than the decline of 2.7 million barrels. Meanwhile the oil prices
hovered above US$89 a barrel on Tuesday as traders anticipated that weekly
U.S. crude inventories would fall in a sign of improved demand.
|
|
Benchmark oil for February delivery rose 45 cents to settle at $89.82 a
barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Oil traded in the $70s for most
of year 2010, but jumped to a two-year high above $90 earlier December 2010
as Federal Reserve measures to keep lending rates low fueled optimism U.S.
economic growth will accelerate in year 2011.
|
|
Traders and investors are starting to feel more upbeat about the economy
and about the impact of the Fed's moves in recent months to change the
psychology. Oil traders remained optimistic about improving demand for
energy products as millions of Americans travel for the holidays. And
heating oil purchases are expected to rise 4.6 percent above normal for
this time of year because of cold weather.
|
|
The crude oil supplies expect to fall by 2.4 million barrels. Shrinking oil
inventories can point to higher prices, but rising prices so far are mainly
fired by hopes for stronger oil and gas demand in the near future. The
underlying facts of the market really haven't changed too much. A lot of
the upside potential of the market is predicated on the economic recovery.
|
|
An improving economy could limit oil price rises, if the dollar grows
stronger. Since oil and other commodities are priced in dollars, a stronger
dollar makes them more expensive for traders who use other currencies.
|
|
In other Nymex trading, heating oil added 2.69 cents to settle at $2.5164 a
gallon and natural gas dropped 17.8 cents to settle at $4.059 per 1,000
cubic feet. Gasoline rose 2.07 cents to close at $2.3981 a gallon. In
London, Brent crude rose 46 cents to settle at $93.20 a barrel on the ICE
Futures exchange.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

COMMENTS & RECOMMENDATION
|
Incorporated in 1978 as a private limited company, the SC is
principally engaged in the trading of oil palm processing equipments and
related products. With experiences for about 33 years in the industry, the
SC's operation has been running relatively stable since it has built up a
relatively sound and stable clientele base which has contributed to its
business growth. Strongly supported by its shareholders, the SC is expected
to enjoy timely financial and technical support should the needs arise.
|
|
Besides catering to the local market, the SC has ventured into Asia
countries. We believe that this global approach has minimised its
commercial risk and better growth prospects can be expected. Besides, we
noted that the SC has regional branches located in Argentina, Australia,
Belgium, Brazil, China, France, Egypt and others. Its wide and stable
marketing network has well diversified its business risk. Currently, the SC
has a total work force of 50 employees and its business operations are
considered stable. The SC has good management capability.
|
|
During the financial year under review, the SC's turnover continued on an
upward momentum, reaching RM184.37 million in 2009 compared to RM148.58
million previously. Nonetheless, its pre-tax profit had dropped from RM6.83
million to RM1.76 million. Due to this, the SC has generated a relatively
low return based on its existing shareholders' funds which indicated that
the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate income.
The SC however managed to maintain an adequate liquidity level, indicating
that the SC has the ability to meet its financial obligations. Being a
lowly geared company, the SC is exposed to low financial risk as it is
mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business needs. The
SC had a strong financial performance in year 2009.
|
|
The SC sources its raw materials locally and internationally. Being
involved in import and export activities, the SC is subjected to the
foreign currency exchange risk.
|
|
We regard that the SC's overall payment habit is prompt. The SC is capable
to meet small & medium commitments. Little caution needed for big
transactions.
|
|
The industry continues to grow and the growth prospect is bright. This has
created ample business opportunities for the SC to expand and stabilise its
business. With the SC's strong background, it has competitive edge against
other players in the same field.
|
|
In view of the above favourable conditions, we recommend that credit be
proceeded to the SC promptly.
