FINANCIAL COMMENTS

 

 

Profitability:

Turnover

:

Decreased

[

2008 - 2010

]

Profit/(Loss) Before Tax

:

Decreased

[

2008 - 2010

]

Return on Shareholder Funds

:

Favourable

[

39.16%

]

Return on Net Assets

:

Favourable

[

35.76%

]


The continuous fall in turnover could be due to the lower demand for the SC's products / services. The management had succeeded in turning the SC into a profit making company. The profit could be due to better control of its operating costs and efficiency in utilising its resources. Generally the SC was profitable. The favourable return on shareholders' funds and return on net assets indicate that the SC's management was efficient in utilising the assets to generate returns.

Working Capital Control:

Stock Ratio

:

Acceptable

[

64 Days

]

Debtors Ratio

:

Favourable

[

40 Days

]

Creditors Ratio

:

Favourable

[

26 Days

]


The SC kept adequate stocks to meet its normal business transactions without incurring excessive storage costs. 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.

Liquidity:

Liquid Ratio

:

Favourable

[

2.59 Times

]

Current Ratio

:

Favourable

[

3.93 Times

]


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.

Solvency

Interest Cover

:

Favourable

[

26.92 Times

]

Gearing Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.00 Times

]


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 had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

Overall Assessment:

Although the SC's turnover decreased, its losses also decreased during the year. This could be the result of more efficient control in its operating costs. 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 was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

Overall financial condition of the SC : STRONG

MSIC CODE

20212 : Manufacture of laminboard, particle board and other panels and boards

 

 

INDUSTRY :

WOOD PRODUCT

 

 

 


The industry is predominantly owned by Malaysian and it is estimated that 80% of timber-based companies are small and medium size companies while for furniture industries, 90% are small and medium companies. The wood-based industry is one of the resource-based industries with potential for growth. In order to maximise the utilisation of wood resources, the industry has moved into the production of engineered wood products. Products are now being manufactured from trees of smaller diameter/lower quality. It is environmentally friendly, easy to use and strong. These products have set new performance standards by minimising both resources and manufacturing defects while enhancing structural features.


The National Timber Industry Policy (NATIP) has targeted exports of timber and timber products to hit RM53bil, of which 60% represent value-added products while the remaining 40% is commodity-based. In addition, export growth has also been set at 6.4% annually. The growing demand from traditional markets like United States and Europe is also boosting exports of the local timber industry. The use of wood globally was increasing and the Malaysian timber industry remained an important contributor to the nation's economy.


However, according to Timber Exporters' Association of Malaysia, the timber industry is adversely affected by the unstable and high sea freight rates from Port Klang to Europe. The freight rate to major European ports was currently about USD2,800 per 40-footer container and was expected to increase after the summer holidays due to peak season surcharge. Besides, the freight rate to Middle Eastern countries had also increased due to the coming Ramadhan. The strengthening of the ringgit had also affected demand from Europe which is among the key importers of Malaysian timber. The local timber company will increase the selling prices of their timber products due to increase in freight rate to cover their margin.


To streamline and improve the efficiency of the timber sub-sector, the government launched the National Timber Policy (NATIP) on 17 February 2009. Among its objectives, NATIP serves to ensure that the industry continues to enhance its competitiveness in the global marketplace. The Government continues to promote higher value-added downstream activities through the provision of special funding and grants. These support facilities assist Malaysian companies in setting up and expanding infrastructure facilities, R&D, training and streamlining procedures to facilitate increased production.


The Malaysian government has also embarked on several initiatives to enhance market access. These initiatives include Voluntary Partnership Agreement (VPA) with the European Commission (EC). This agreement aims at combating illegal logging and reducing illegally harvested timber. Malaysia is the first country to commence formal negotiations to conclude a VPA and this should help ensure that Malaysian wood products will have a better access to the EU market.


According to Deputy Minister of Plantation Industries and Commodities , the timber industry has to move in line with the need to explore the use of wood as material for the construction industry, especially as a component of the Industrialised Building System (IBS). With the decision by the government to increase to 70% the IBS components for its projects and also enhance the IBS method in the construction industry, the wood products industry will indirectly enjoy the benefits. The timber industry can participate in the implementation of the IBS either as a producer, fabricator, transport provider or provide consultancy services to those utilising wood. As such, the timber industry must prepare itself with the knowledge and learn the related technology so that it is not left behind and can continue to compete at the global level.


Overall, wood-based industry players should embrace new technologies and best practices to increase productivity, efficiency and adapt the ever-changing market. As a world-renowned manufacturer and exporter of rubber wood furniture, and to meet the continuing demand for high quality furniture and products, Malaysia is migrating to produce high-end wood-based product inputs.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

 

COMMENTS & RECOMMENDATION

 

 

Established in 1994, the SC is a private limited company with core business as a manufacturer of medium density fiber board and other wood based products. Its long establishment in the market has allowed the SC to build up a good reputation and gain higher market share against its rivals. With a large issued and paid up capital of RM61,000,000 and strong backing from its well-established holding company, the SC enjoys timely financial assistance should the needs arise. These favourable conditions has minimised its risk in the industry compared to other players.


Throughout its years of establishment, the SC has built up an extensive network in the market. In an effort to capture a higher market shares, the SC has penetrated into the global market. Its customer's base has extended from Malaysia to Middle East, Southeast Asia, Australia, Africa and etc. Such a wide marketing network has lowered the SC's commercial risk. As a whole, the business prospect of the SC remains bright. The SC is a fairly large and rapidly growing company with 300 staff in its operations. The SC's management structure is well organised and its management capability is regarded as good.


For the financial year ended 2010, the SC's turnover decreased from RM229.9 million to RM221.9 million. Despite the lower turnover, the SC's pre-tax profit grew to RM56.54 million. Based on the higher profitability, the SC has generated a favourable return based on its existing shareholders' funds which indicated that the management was efficient in utilising its funds to generate income. The SC was in good liquidity position with its current liabilities well covered by its current assets. Hence, it has sufficient working capital to meet its short term financial obligations. Being a zero geared company, the SC virtually has no financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business needs. Given a healthy net worth standing at RM158.24 million, the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.


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 the historical financial data, we concluded that the SC's payment habit is prompt. The SC had a favourable creditors' ratio as evidenced by its favourable collection days.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is likely to sustain in the near future. With the promising outlook of the industry performance, the SC business potential should be favourable. Moreover, as the SC is long presence in the market, it should have acquired competitive edge against other players in the same fields.


In view of the above favourable condition, we recommend that credit be proceeded to the SC with favourable term.
