FINANCIAL COMMENTARY

 

Compound Annual Growth Rate

The company's CAGR is 0.72% (4 years).

CAGR is the year-over-year growth rate of a company over a specified period. Instead of looking at the average growth rate, CAGR allow users to look at the annualized growth rate of a company over a given period, a more indicative measure of growth of a company’s performance over a given period.

 

Profitability

The company yielded a rate of net profit on sales of 9.30 per cent in FY10 (FY09: 26.04 per cent). The company is now able to book in SGD - SIN 0.09 of profit for every SGD - SIN of sales in FY10, as compared with SGD - SIN 0.26 a year ago.

 

Liquidity

 

Current ratio stood at 0.95 times in FY10 (FY09: 0.83 times). This means that the company has SGD - SIN 0.95 of current assets for every SGD - SIN of current liability incurred.

A minimum figure of 1.0 would be considered the lowest limit that this figure should reach. Any business that has a current ratio near 1.0 may be heading for liquidity problems, and would need to be closely monitored. A figure greater than 2.0 would be more desirable, to act as a buffer against any short-term liquidity problems, and give creditors/bank managers a degree of comfort when granting credit/finance.

 

 

Leverage

We are unable to comment on Subject's leverage.

 

 

Efficiency Ratio

 

We are unable to comment on Subject's return on equity.

 

Return on assets stood at 10.08 per cent (FY09: 39.91 per cent). The return on asset measures the overall effectiveness of management in generating profit with its available assets.

 

Total assets turnover ratio logged at 1.08 times in FY10 (FY09: 1.53 times). This ratio measures the company's ability to make productive use of its total assets to generate sales which reflects the efficiency of the management in utilising its resources.
