FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

 

 

Profitability

 

 

 

 

 

 

Turnover

:

Erratic

[

2008 - 2011

]

 

Profit/(Loss) Before Tax

:

Increased

[

2008 - 2011

]

 

Return on Shareholder Funds

:

Unfavourable

[

4.36%

]

 

Return on Net Assets

:

Unfavourable

[

4.03%

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the existing and new market players.The higher profit could be attributed to the increase in turnover. 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liquidity

 

 

 

 

 

 

Current Ratio

:

Favourable

[

1.69 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC was in good liquidity position with its current liabilities well covered by its current assets. With its net current assets, the SC should be able to repay its short term obligations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Solvency

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liability Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.45 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A low liabilities ratio has minimised the SC's financial risk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although the turnover was erratic, the SC had maintained a steady growth in its profit. This indicate the management's efficiency in controlling its costs and profitability. 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. The SC has high financial risks. If its shareholders do not inject more capital into the company or if its business performance does not improve, its going concern may be in question.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall financial condition of the SC : FAIR

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

242 : Manufacture of Other Chemical Products

 

 

INDUSTRY :

MANUFACTURING

 

 

 


The manufacturing sector expanded by 5.1% in the third quarter ended September 30,2011 on a year-on-year basis as supply-chain disruptions were reduced and following higher output of domestic-related industries as well as a weaker external environment. Investments in Malaysia's manufacturing sector reached RM40.7 billion in the first 10 months of 2011 and the full-year figure is expected to surpass year 2010's numbers.


The E&E sub-sector is expected to moderate in the second half of 2011, due to the increasingly uncertain external environment. Output of E&E contracted 4.9% during the first seven months of 2011 largely due to the global supply chain disruptions and lower global chip sales. Lower orders for notebooks and personal computers arising from increased preference for smartphones and media tables coupled with uncertainties over the US and European economies, adversely affected the sub-sector.


The wood and wood products sub-sector, on the other hand, is expected to rebound when Japan's reconstruction efforts gain momentum and new housing projects start in the Middle East after the month of Ramadhan in the year 2011. Production of wood and wood products contracted 7% during the first half of the year 2011, largely due to slower output of wooden and cane furniture as well as veneer sheets and plywood. 


The rubber products sub-sector is expected to remain resilient supported by continuous improvements in medical and healthcare standards in emerging markets as well as demand from niche markets such as the oil and gas sector for rubber hoses. Output of rubber products increased 15.4% during the first seven months of 2011, supported by continuos demand for rubber gloves as well as rubber tyres and tubes. 


For the textiles, apparel and footwear sub-sector, the local industry players's ability to produce quality designs and diversification of product lines to cater to different market segments as well as market under their own labels are expected to sustain the growth of this sub-sector. Furthermore, the upcoming 2012 Olympic Games is anticipated to boost demand for sports attire and strengthen the sub-sector's growth further. Production of textiles, apparel and foorwear grew 14.8% during the first half of the year 2011 led by higher output of wearing apparel and footwear.


During the first seven months of 2011, production of chemicals and chemical products rose 5.6%. While output of basic chemicals contracted 8.2%, other chemical and plastic products recorded a positive growth of 30% and 20.7% respectively. On the domestic front, output of construction related materials as a group grew strongly by 20% following robust housing construction activities and aided by ongoing implementation of civil engineering projects. The manufacture of transport equipment shrank 9.4% as a result of supply chain disruptions caused by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. In addition, production of food rose 2.4% driven by the manufacture of refined palm oil processed and preserved fish products and other food products. Specifically, production of beverages increased 12.6% while tobacco declined 2.3%


Going forward, the manufacturing sector is expected to be driven by higher value-added activities. In this regard, further tax and non-tax incentives will be provided to encourage manufacturers to move up the value chain. The new growth initiatives in the manufacturing sector such as solar and medial services would be important drivers of growth apart from helping to diversify the manufacturing base and contributing to the resilience of the sector.

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

 


CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 


Incorporated in 2005, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on manufacturing of oleochemicals. Having been in business for 7 years, the SC has established a remarkable clientele base for itself which has contributed to its business growth. Having strong support from its holding company has enabled the SC to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment. The SC is a large entity with strong capital position. We are confident with the SC's business and its future growth prospect.


Over the years, the SC has penetrated into both the local and overseas market. The SC has positioned itself in the global market and is competing in the industry. Its stable clientele base will enable the SC to further enhance its business in the near term. The SC has approximately 49 employees in its business operations. Overall, we regard that the SC's management capability is average. This indicates that the SC has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the SC.


We noted that both the turnover and profits have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to increase in turnover and better control over its operating costs. The SC however has generated an unfavourable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate return. Fortunately, the SC is in good liquidity position with its current liabilities well covered by it current assets. Hence, it has sufficient working capital to meet its short term financial obligations. A low liabilities ratio has minimised the SC's financial risk. Given a positive net worth standing at MYR 80,315,857, the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.


The SC's supplier are from both the local and overseas countries. This will eliminates the risk of dependency on deliveries from a number of key suppliers and insufficient quantities of its raw materials. Overall the SC has a good control over its resources.


We regard that the SC's overall 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 very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the SC is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry.


Based on the above condition, we recommend credit be granted to the SC normally.
