FINANCIAL COMMENTARY

 

Profitability

We are unable to comment on Subject's profitability.

 

Liquidity

 

Current ratio stood at 1.60 times in FY10 (FY09: 1.55 times). This means that the company has SGD - SIN 1.60 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FINANCIAL COMMENTARY

 

Leverage

Total debt-to-equity ratio notched 1.21 times in FY10, as compared with 1.42 times in FY09. This means that the company requires additional external financing of SGD - SIN 1.21 for every SGD - SIN injected into its operations.

 

Generally, a total debt-to-equity ratio of less than 0.5 times is preferred. The ratio measures the proportion of the company's reliance on external debt for financing, relative to the shareholder's fund. A lower ratio would imply a greater financial safety and operating freedom for the company.

 

 

Efficiency Ratio

 

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

 

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

 

Total assets turnover ratio logged at 1.89 times in FY10 (FY09: 1.74 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.
