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 0.8% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but rebounded 14.8% in 2010, on the strength of renewed exports, before slowing to 5.2% in 2011 and 1.3% in 2012, largely a result of soft demand for exports during the second European recession. Over the longer term, the government hopes to establish a new growth path that focuses on raising productivity, which has sunk to an average of about 1.0% 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.

The fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the
existing and new market players.The dip in profit could be due to the stiff
market competition which reduced the SC's profit margin. 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. |

|
The SC's stocks were moving fast thus reducing its holding cost. This
had reduced funds being tied up in 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 where 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 SC's interest cover was slightly low. If there is no sharp fall in
its profit or sudden increase in the interest rates, we believe the SC is
able to generate sufficient income to service its interest and repay the
loans. The SC had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk.
The SC was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund.
During the economic downturn, the SC, having a zero gearing, will be able to
compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry. |

Overall Assessment : |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The SC recorded lower profits as its turnover showed a erratic trend.
The SC's management was unable to control its costs efficiently as its profit
showed a downward trend. 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 had an acceptable interest cover. If there is no sudden
sharp increase in interest rate or fall in the SC's profit, we do believe the
SC is able to generate sufficient cash flow to service its interest payment.
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. |
