Malaysia - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Malaysia, a middle-income country, has transformed itself since the 1970s from a producer of raw materials into an emerging multi-sector economy. Under current Prime Minister NAJIB, Malaysia is attempting to achieve high-income status by 2020 and to move farther up the value-added production chain by attracting investments in Islamic finance, high technology industries, biotechnology, and services. The NAJIB administration also is continuing efforts to boost domestic demand and reduce the economy's dependence on exports. Nevertheless, exports - particularly of electronics, oil and gas, palm oil and rubber - remain a significant driver of the economy. As an oil and gas exporter, Malaysia has profited from higher world energy prices, although the rising cost of domestic gasoline and diesel fuel, combined with strained government finances, has forced Kuala Lumpur to begin to reduce government subsidies. The government is also trying to lessen its dependence on state oil producer Petronas. The oil and gas sector supplies more than 40% of government revenue. The central bank maintains healthy foreign exchange reserves, and a well-developed regulatory regime has limited Malaysia''s exposure to riskier financial instruments and the global financial crisis. Nevertheless, Malaysia could be vulnerable to a fall in commodity prices or a general slowdown in global economic activity because exports are a major component of GDP. In order to attract increased investment, NAJIB has raised possible revisions to the special economic and social preferences accorded to ethnic Malays under the New Economic Policy of 1970, but he has encountered significant opposition, especially from Malay nationalists and other vested interests.

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. 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.

As the SC is a service oriented company, the SC does not need to keep stocks. The high debtors' ratio could indicate that the SC was weak in its credit control. However, the SC could also giving longer credit periods to its customers in order to boost its sales or to capture / retain its market share. 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.

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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.

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 was lowly geared thus it had a low financial risk. The SC was mainly financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated funds. In times of economic slowdown / downturn, the SC being a lowly geared company, will be able to compete better than those companies which are highly geared in the same industry.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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. With the favourable interest cover, the SC could be able to service all the accrued interest without facing any difficulties. The SC as a lowly geared company, will be more secured compared to those highly geared companies. It has the ability to meet all its long term obligations.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

 

51411 : Wholesale of petrol, diesel, lubricants, etc.

 

 

INDUSTRY :

TRADING

 

 

 


The wholesale and retail trade sector grew 7.1% in the first half of the year 2011 supported by strong consumer spending amid favourable labour market conditions and sustained disposable income. This was reflected in the higher distributive trade index which increased 15.9%, with wholesale and retail trade indices increasing 19.2% and 7.8%, respectively. 


It is anticipated that the retail industry will grow 6.0 per cent in the year 2012.


Malaysia's retail sector for 2011 is expected to grow 6 per cent or RM81.59 billion worth of retail sales, similar to the year 2010, due to concerns of high oil prices, declining purchasing power and high cost of doing business. The Middle East and North Africa civil wars have caused the world oil prices to climb. This has led to further rise in the cost of running retail businesses, especially in terms of transportation cost. Many retailers have no choice but to pass the increased cost to end consumers. At the same time, natural disasters (tsunamis, floods, droughts, snow storms, tornadoes and earthquakes) that occurred in all parts of the world has also led to a shortage in the supply of food and raw materials. The phenomenon has pushed retail prices up.In addition, the continual removal of government subsidies since 2010 has pushed inflation upwards. Consequently, rising prices of retail goods contributed to an expectation of moderate performance.


During the first seven months of 2011, other consumption indicators such as imports of consumption goods and credit card spending increased 12.8% and 11.8%, respectively. Sales of motor vehicles declined 3% on account of supply chain disruptions following devastating March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan.


Growth of the sector is anticipated to remain encouraging with ongoing efforts by the Government to increase its contribution to the economy. Major initiatives include increasing the number of large format stores such as hypermarkets, superstores and departmental stores are carried out to boost the economy.


Meanwhile, the Government has introduced the Retail Shop Transformation (TUKAR) programme. Under this programme, selected large format retailers will assist small retailers to improve their premises and layout which include attractive product display shelves, enhanced lighting and point-of-sales system to manage product inventory,

 

 

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Average Growth

 

CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 

Incorporated in 2006, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on formulation and distribution of lubricants, bulk breaking storage for domestic and international. Having been in business for more than 5 years, the SC has established a remarkable clientele base for itself which has contributed to its business growth. Having a strong shareholders' backing , the SC has the advantage to compete with its rivals and it is expected to enjoy timely financial assistance should the needs arise. The capital standing of the SC is fair. With an adequate share capital, the SC has the potential of expanding its business in future.


Our investigation revealed that the SC serves both local and overseas clients. Penetrating into the overseas countries has well diversified its business risk and at the same time added strength to its capabilities in capturing higher market shares. Being a small company, the SC's business operation is supported by 25 employees. 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.


Despite the lower turnover, the SC's pre-tax profit have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to better control of its operating costs and efficiency in utilising its resources. 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 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. Being a lowly geared company, the SC is exposed to low financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business needs. Given a positive net worth standing at MYR 61,392,000, the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.


Having a strong assets backing, the SC possesses latent assets as collateral for further financial extension. Hence, it has good chance of getting loans if the needs arises. Investigation revealed that the SC's raw materials are sourced from both local and overseas suppliers. Hence, the SC is subjected to currency fluctuation risk. Overall the SC has a good control over its resources.


Based on our historical financial data, the SC's payment is average. The SC should be able to meet its small and medium commitments.


The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. With the SC's favourable conditions, it should have acquired competitive edge from its competitors. 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 promptly.
