Singapore - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Singapore has a highly developed and successful free-market economy. It enjoys a remarkably open and corruption-free environment, stable prices, and a per capita GDP higher than that of most developed countries. The economy depends heavily on exports, particularly in consumer electronics, information technology products, pharmaceuticals, and on a growing financial services sector. Real GDP growth averaged 8.6% between 2004 and 2007. The economy contracted 1.0% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but rebounded 14.8% in 2010 and 4.9% in 2011, on the strength of renewed exports. Over the longer term, the government hopes to establish a new growth path that focuses on raising productivity, which has sunk to a compound annual growth rate of just 1.8% in the last decade. Singapore has attracted major investments in pharmaceuticals and medical technology production and will continue efforts to establish Singapore as Southeast Asia's financial and high-tech hub.

FINANCIAL COMMENTARY

 

Compound Annual Growth Rate

 

The company's CAGR is 82.97% (3 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 0.12 per cent in FY11 (FY10: 0.07 per cent). The company is now able to book in SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 0.00 of profit for every SINGAPORE, DOLLARS of sales in FY11, as compared with SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 0.00 a year ago.

 

 

Liquidity

 

Current ratio stood at 1.04 times in FY11 (FY10: 1.01 times). This means that the company has SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 1.04 of current assets for every SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 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

Total debt-to-equity ratio notched 23.36 times in FY11, compared with 75.21 times in FY10. This means that the company requires additional external financing of SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 23.36 for every SINGAPORE, DOLLARS 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

 

Return on equity was 14.72 per cent for Subject in the current financial period, as compared to 30.56 per cent a year ago. The return on equity measures the return earned on the owner's investment.  Generally, the higher this return, the better off the owner.

 

Return on assets stood at 0.60 per cent (FY10: 0.40 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 5.24 times in FY11 (FY10: 5.53 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.
