FINANCIAL COMMENTS

LIMITED EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY:

WHERE THE SHARES OF A PRIVATE COMPANY ARE NOT OWNED BY ANY CORPORATE

BODY AND THERE ARE NO MORE THAN 20 MEMBERS, THE PRIVATE COMPANY

IS KNOWN AS AN EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY.

AN EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY ENJOYS A GREATER AMOUNT OF PRIVACY THAN A

PRIVATE COMPANY. IT IS NOT REQUIRED TO FILE ACCOUNTS WITH THE

REGISTRAR IF IT CAN PRODUCE A CERTIFICATE SIGNED BY ONE OF ITS

DIRECTORS, SECRETARY AND AUDITOR CONFIRMING THE FOLLOWING POINTS:

1. THE COMPANY IS AN EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY.

2. THE AUDITED ACCOUNTS HAVE BEEN TABLED BEFORE THE SHAREHOLDERS

   AT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING.

3. THE COMPANY IS ABLE TO MEET ITS LIABILITIES.

THERE IS THEREFORE NO DISCLOSURE TO THE PUBLIC OF THE ACCOUNTS

OF THE COMPANY ALTHOUGH THE ACCOUNTS STILL HAVE TO BE AUDITED

EVERY YEAR AND APPROVED AT AN ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE

COMPANY.

A PRIVATE COMPANY THAT IS WHOLLY OWNED BY THE GOVERNMENT MAY

BECOME AN EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY IF THE MINISTER FOR FINANCE, IN THE

NATIONAL INTEREST, DECLARES IT TO BE SUCH BY A GAZETTE NOTIFICATION.

EXEMPT FROM AUDIT

AN EXEMPT PRIVATE COMPANY IS EXEMPT FROM AUDIT REQUIREMENTS IF THE

STARTING DATE OF ITS FINANCIAL YEAR IS BETWEEN 15 MAY 2003 AND 31 MAY

2004 AND ITS TURNOVER FOR THAT FINANCIAL YEAR DOES NOT EXCEED $2.5

MILLION. FOR FINANCIAL YEARS STARTING 1 JUNE 2004, THE AMOUNT OF THE

TURNOVER HAS BEEN RAISED TO $5 MILLION. THESE COMPANIES ARE STILL

REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN PROPER ACCOUNTING.

Investment Grade

THE SINGAPORE ECONOMY WAS SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTED BY THE CRISIS DUE TO THE CONTRACTION OF EXPORTS, WHICH REPRESENT 210% OF GDP. SALES ABROAD OF MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS (ELECTRONICS, ENGINEERING, PHARMACEUTICALS, PETROCHEMICALS) AND SERVICES (FINANCIAL SERVICES, TOURISM, TRANSPORT) WERE AFFECTED BY THE WEAK PERFORMANCE OF THE MAIN TRADING PARTNERS (MALAYSIA, UNITED STATES, CHINA, JAPAN). WITH THE ECONOMY'S SLIDE INTO RECESSION, THE CENTRAL BANK REDUCED INTEREST RATES SEVERAL TIMES AND A STIMULUS PROGRAMME REPRESENTING 8% OF GDP WAS IMPLEMENTED IN JANUARY LAST YEAR. ALTHOUGH INCREASED PUBLIC SPENDING ON INFRASTRUCTURE, TRANSPORT, HEALTH AND EDUCATION ENABLED THE AUTHORITIES TO LIMIT THE CONTRACTION OF INVESTMENT, THAT DID NOT SUFFICE TO OFFSET THE DROP IN PRIVATE INVESTMENT. THE GOVERNMENT MOREOVER GRANTED DEFAULT GUARANTEES OF UP TO 80% ON NEW LOANS. AND HOUSEHOLD CONSUMPTION WAS SUPPORTED BY A REDUCTION OF INCOME TAX AND MEASURES TO FOSTER EMPLOYMENT.

IN Q1 2010, GROWTH REBOUNDED SIGNIFICANTLY (15.5% Y/Y). FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR, GROWTH IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN HIGH (8.9%) THANKS TO THE POSITIVE IMPACT ON DOMESTIC DEMAND OF THESE EXPANSIONARY MONETARY AND FISCAL POLICIES AND THE GRADUAL RECOVERY OF THE WORLD ECONOMY. INVESTMENT, CONSUMPTION, AND NET EXPORTS ARE AGAIN EXPECTED TO CONTRIBUTE POSITIVELY TO GROWTH. ON THE SUPPLY SIDE, THE CONSTRUCTION SECTOR WILL BENEFIT AGAIN THIS YEAR FROM INCREASED PUBLIC SPENDING WHILE ELECTRONICS, PHARMACEUTICALS, PETROCHEMICALS, FINANCIAL SERVICES, AND TOURISM WILL GRADUALLY RECOVER. THE COFACE PAYMENT MONITORING RECORDS ARE THUS EXPECTED TO REFLECT THIS FAVOURABLE TREND. SINGAPORE BOASTS THE BEST GOVERNANCE IN ASIA UNDERPINNED BY AN EFFECTIVE LEGAL SYSTEM THAT FACILITATES CLAIM COLLECTION AND A HIGH LEVEL OF FINANCIAL TRANSPARENCY.

STRONG FINANCIAL POSITION

DESPITE IMPLEMENTATION OF A BROAD STIMULUS PROGRAMME, THE COUNTRY CONTINUED TO RUN A SLIGHT FISCAL SURPLUS IN 2009, WHICH IS EXPECTED TO GROW IN 2010. PUBLIC SECTOR FINANCES HAVE THUS REMAINED SOLID.

DESPITE THE CONTRACTION OF THE CURRENT ACCOUNT SURPLUS, EXTERNAL ACCOUNTS ALSO REMAINED LARGELY IN SURPLUS LAST YEAR. IN 2010, THE CURRENT ACCOUNT SURPLUS WILL LIKELY REMAIN STABLE AS RESULT OF THE MORE RAPID RECOVERY OF IMPORTS COMPARED TO EXPORTS, ASSOCIATED WITH THE RISE OF RAW MATERIAL PRICES AND THE REBOUND OF DOMESTIC DEMAND. BESIDES, THE VOLATILITY OF PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT FLOWS THAT DEVELOPED AFTER THE LEHMAN BROTHERS BANKRUPTCY EASED IN 2009. IN 2010, THE HIGH LEVEL OF FOREIGN EXCHANGE RESERVES IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO ENDOW THE COUNTRY WITH GOOD CAPACITY TO WITHSTAND SUDDEN CAPITAL.

MOREOVER, DESPITE THE INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL TURMOIL AND THE EXPOSURE OF SOME BANKS TO SUBPRIMES AND LEHMAN BROTHERS, THE BANKING SYSTEM IS STILL SOLID THANKS TO SATISFACTORY RISK MANAGEMENT, EFFECTIVE OVERSIGHT, AND HIGH SOLVENCY AND LIQUIDITY RATIOS.

MANUFACTURING SECTOR

PAST PERFORMANCE

THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR SURGED 45.0% IN 2Q 2010, COMPARED TO 2Q 2009, FOLLOWING THE 38.0% GROWTH IN 1Q 2010.

THE STRONG GROWTH WAS SUPPORTED BY BETTER PERFORMANCES IN ALL CLUSTERS EXCEPT TRANSPORT ENGINEERING.

THE BIOMEDICAL MANUFACTURING CLUSTER SURGED 85.0%, DRIVEN BY STRONG PERFORMANCE IN THE PHARMACEUTICALS (89.0%), AND MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY SEGMENTS (15.0%).

THE ELECTRONICS CLUSTER ROSE 53.0%, DUE TO ROBUST GLOBAL ELECTRONICS DEMAND. WHILE THE

SEMICONDUCTORS SEGMENT (81.0%) EXPANDED RAPIDLY, THE DATA STORAGE SEGMENT (0.4%) GREW MARGINALLY, DUE IN PART TO ONGOING RELOCATION OF PRODUCTION OVERSEAS ANNOUNCED PREVIOUSLY.

THE PRECISION ENGINEERING CLUSTER GREW 36.0%, LIFTED BY MACHINERY AND SYSTEMS (44.0%0) AND PRECISION MODULES AND COMPONENTS SEGMENTS (29.0%).

OUTPUT OF THE CHEMICALS CLUSTER ROSE BY 17.0%, DUE TO GAINS IN THE PETROCHEMICALS SEGMENT (41.0%).

THE GENERAL MANUFACTURING CLUSTER GREW 15.0%, SUPPORTED BY STRONG GROWTH IN THE MISCELLANEOUS INDUSTRIES SEGMENT (20.0%).

THE TRANSPORT ENGINEERING CLUSTER CONTRACTED FOR THE FIFTH CONSECUTIVE QUARTER AS IT FELL BY 10.0%, DUE TO DECLINES IN THE MARINE AND OFFSHORE ENGINEERING CLUSTER (-24.0%).

NEWS

SIGNS OF SLOWDOWN IN SINGAPORE FACTORY OUTPUT

FACTORY OUTPUT IS SHOWING SIGNS OF FALTERING, WITH A KEY INDICATOR SUGGESTING THAT SINGAPORE’S MANUFACTURING SECTOR HAS SHRUNK FOR THE FIRST TINE IN 16 MONTHS.

THE PURCHASING MANAGERS’ INDEX (PMI), A BAROMETER OF FACTORY PRODUCTION, FELL TO 49.4 LAST MONTH, AN EARLY WARNING SIGN OF SLOWING OUTPUT GIVEN THAT A READING OF LESS THAN 50 INDICATES CONTRACTION.

SUCH A LOW READING HAS NOT BEEN SEEN SINCE APRIL LAST YEAR WHEN THE PMI INDEX HIT 49.2.

THE DATA, RELEASED YESTERDAY, COMES AFTER FIGURES LAST WEEK SHOWED THAT PRODUCTION IN JULY GREW AT THE SLOWEST PACE IN EIGHT MONTHS. THAT ENDED A STRING OF STRONG DOUBLE-DIGIT EXPANSIONS IN MANUFACTURING OUTPUT SINCE THE END OF LAST YEAR.

FIRM DATA FOR AUGUST’S FACTORY PRODUCTION IS NOT OUT UNTIL LATER THIS MONTH BUT, WITH THE PMI COMING IN WELL BELOW EXPECTATIONS, ECONOMISTS ARE APPREHENSIVE.

“THIS WAS A LITTLE WORSE THAN EXPECTED,” SAID ACTION ECONOMICS’ DAVID COHEN OF THE PMI NUMBERS.

SINGAPORE JOINED TAIWAN AS THE TWO EXPORT-DEPENDENT ASIAN COUNTRIES TO REPORT LOWER PMI READINGS FOR LAST MONTH – BOTH BELOW 50 – WHILE JAPAN AND SOUTH KOREA PUBLISHED BORDERLINE INDEXES OF 50.1 AND 50.9 RESPECTIVELY.

AND CIMB-GK ECONOMIST SONG SENG WUN NOTED THAT THE PMI SOLELY FOR SINGAPORE’S ELECTRONICS SEGMENT, WHICH MAKES UP ALMOST A THIRD OF TOTAL MANUFACTURING OUTPUT, POSTED ITS LOWEST READING FOR THE MONTH OF AUGUST SINCE 2001, WHICH HE DESCRIBED AS “A WORRISOME SIGN”.

“THE SLOWDOWN IN ORDERS IN AUGUST IS CERTAIN TO LIMIT FUTURE IMPROVEMENTS IN TECH MANUFACTURING,” MR SONG ADDED.

MS JANICE ONG, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE SINGAPORE INSTITUTE OF PURCHASING AND MATERIALS MANAGEMENT, WHICH COMPILES AND PUBLISHES THE PMI MONTHLY, BLAMES MANUFACTURING’S COOLING ON SLOWER ECONOMIC ACTIVITY BECAUSE OF MAJOR EVENTS SUCH AS THE YOUTH OLYMPICS GAMES AND NATIONAL DAY CELEBRATIONS TAKING PLACE LAST MONTH.

AND SOME ECONOMISTS REMAIN UPBEAT ABOUT THE OUTLOOK FOR GROWTH.

SINGAPORE’S LOWER PMI READING “IS LINE WITH REGIONAL TRENDS AND NOT YET CAUSE FOR ALARM”, SAID HSBC ECONOMIST FREDERIC NEUMANN.

“AFTER BLISTERING GROWTH OVER THE FIRST HALF, THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR IS TAKING A BREATHER, AS THE GLOBAL RESTOCKING BOUNCE IS BEGINNING TO FADE.

MR COHEN SAID THAT WHILE SINGAPORE’S PMI READINGS ARE SLATED TO REMAIN BELOW THE CRUCIAL 50 LEVEL FOR THE NEXT FEW MONTHS, THEY ARE UNLIKELY TO PLUNGE TO THE DEEP LOWS SEEN AT THE END OF 2008 AND THE BEGINNING OF LAST YEAR, WHEN THEY CAME IN AT BETWEEN 44 AND 45.

“THIS IS BASED ON THE CONSENSUS VIEW THAT WHILE THE GLOBAL RECOVERY HAS SLOWED, IT WILL AVOID A SEVERE DOUBLE-DIP,” HE SAID.

MR NEUMANN PREDICTS THE PMI SHOULD START HEADING NORTH AGAIN BY THE FOURTH QUARTER.

“CHINA’S PMI READINGS PICKED UP AGAIN IN AUGUST, WHICH SUGGESTS THAT THIS IS NOT THE BEGINNING OF A DOUBLE DIP, BUT RATHER A BRIEF MOMENT FOR EVERYONE TO CATCH THEIR BREATH,” HE SAID.

OUTLOOK

THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR FORECASTS FAVOURABLE BUSINESS SENTIMENTS FOR THE MONTHS ENDING DEC 2010, ACCORDING TO THE LATEST BUSINESS EXPECTATIONS SURVEY. A WEIGHTED 25.0% OF FIRMS EXPECT BUSINESS CONDITIONS TO IMPROVE WHILE A WEIGHTED 7.0% FORSEE DETERIORATION. OVERALL, A NET WEIGHTED BALANCE OF 18.0% OF MANUFACTURERS FORECASTS A MORE FAVOURABLE BUSINESS CLIMATE IN THE MONTHS ENDING DEC 2010, AS COMPARED TO 2Q 2010.

THOUGH BUSINESS OUTLOOK REMAINS POSITIVE, THE MANUFACTURING CLUSTERS GENERALLY REGISTERED SMALLER POSITIVE NET BALANCES FOR BUSINESS SENTIMENTS COMPARED TO THE SURVEY CONDUCTED A QUARTER AGO. THIS IS DUE TO THE EXPECTATIONS OF A SLOWER PACE OF GROWTH GLOBALLY IN THE SECOND HALF OF 2010.

WITHIN THE MANUFACTURING SECTOR, THE ELECTRONICS CLUSTER IS THE MOST OPTIMISTIC WITH A NET WEIGHTED BALANCE OF 33.0% OF FIRMS PREDICTING AN IMPROVED BUSINESS SITUATION IN THE MONTHS ENDING DEC 2010. THE FIRMS FORESEE ORDERS BEING SUBSTAINED BY DEMAND FOR CONSUMER ELECTRONIC PRODUCTS SUCH AS WIRELESS HANDSETS AND MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICES. MANUFACTURERS IN THE CHEMICALS CLUSTER ARE THE NEXT MOST OPTIMISTIC, WITH A NET WEIGHTED BALANCE OF 19.0% OF FIRMS FORECASTING BETTER BUSINESS CLIMATE IN THE MONTHS ENDING DEC 2010. WHILE THE SPECIALTIES AND OTHER CHEMICALS SEGMENTS PROJECTS BETTER DEMAND AHEAD, THE PETROCHEMICAL SEGMENT HAS A LESS POSITIVE OUTLOOK DUE TO CONCERNS OF WEAKER MARGINS AS A RESULT OF EXCESS CAPACITIES IN THE REGION.
