HONG KONG - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Hong Kong has a free market economy, highly dependent on international trade and finance - the value of goods and services trade, including the sizable share of re-exports, is about four times GDP. Hong Kong's open economy left it exposed to the global economic slowdown that began in 2008. Although increasing integration with China, through trade, tourism, and financial links, helped it to make an initial recovery more quickly than many observers anticipated, it again faces a possible slowdown as exports to the Euro zone and US slump. The Hong Kong government is promoting the Special Administrative Region (SAR) as the site for Chinese renminbi (RMB) internationalization. Hong Kong residents are allowed to establish RMB-denominated savings accounts; RMB-denominated corporate and Chinese government bonds have been issued in Hong Kong; and RMB trade settlement is allowed. The territory far exceeded the RMB conversion quota set by Beijing for trade settlements in 2010 due to the growth of earnings from exports to the mainland. RMB deposits grew to roughly 7.8% of total system deposits in Hong Kong by the end of 2011, an increase of over 59% since the beginning of the year. The government is pursuing efforts to introduce additional use of RMB in Hong Kong financial markets and is seeking to expand the RMB quota. The mainland has long been Hong Kong's largest trading partner, accounting for about half of Hong Kong's exports by value. Hong Kong's natural resources are limited, and food and raw materials must be imported. As a result of China's easing of travel restrictions, the number of mainland tourists to the territory has surged from 4.5 million in 2001 to 28 million in 2011, outnumbering visitors from all other countries combined. Hong Kong has also established itself as the premier stock market for Chinese firms seeking to list abroad. In 2011 mainland Chinese companies constituted about 43% of the firms listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and accounted for about 56% of the Exchange's market capitalization. During the past decade, as Hong Kong's manufacturing industry moved to the mainland, its service industry has grown rapidly. Growth slowed to 5% in 2011. Credit expansion and tight housing supply conditions caused Hong Kong property prices to rise rapidly in 2010 and inflation to rise 5.3% in 2011. Lower and middle income segments of the population are increasingly unable to afford adequate housing. Hong Kong continues to link its currency closely to the US dollar, maintaining an arrangement established in 1983.

GENERAL

 

Philips Electronics Hong Kong Ltd. was previously known as Philips Consumer Communications Hong Kong Ltd. when it was incorporated in Hong Kong on 27th August, 1997.  It was due to the group’s restructure, the subject changed name to the present one on 3rd December, 1999 in order to take over all the business of Philips Hong Kong Ltd.

The subject’s capital was increased for several times.  Now in total, it has issued 362,198,000 ordinary shares of HK$10.00 each.

The subject was formerly 100% owned by a Netherlands-based firm Philips Consumer Communications B.V., changed to a wholly owned subsidiary of Philips Electronics China B.V., also a Netherlands-registered company, on 1st July, 2000.  The subject now is a member of the Philips Electronics China Group which is a member of the Philips Group.  The subject’s ultimate holding company is Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. [Philips] (or known as Royal Philips Electronics N.V.), also a Netherlands-based firm.  Its shares have been listed on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange Euronext Amsterdam since 1913, and have been traded in the United States since 1962, and also have been listed on the New York Stock Exchange since 1987.

Founded in 1891 in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, by Mr. Gerard Philips, Philips is one of the world’s biggest electronics companies.  The activities of the Philips Group are organized into 4 operating product divisions:-

Healthcare

Consumer Lifestyle

Lighting

Group Management Services

The history of Philips in Hong Kong dates back to 1948, when Hong Kong became the temporary headquarter of Philips (China) Ltd.  It was then named Philips Industries (Far East) Ltd. and was managed by Mr. F. Walterscheld, with the assistance of only two staff members.

In 1959, Philips’ business expanded to Burma, Taiwan, South Korea, Vietnam and Cambodia.

In 1965, Philips’ business expanded even further.  Philips has been responsible for the marketing of all its products locally since 1st January, 1971.  Philips provides a direct link with the Philips organization in Europe.  Philips is operating a bulb factory in Tsuen Wan, New Territories, Hong Kong, which was established in 1974.  Products were primarily provided for local torch and flashlight manufacturing factories and subsequently exported to Europe, the Middle East and South East Asia.

On 8th July, 1988, Philips China Hong Kong Ltd. was further renamed Philips Hong Kong Ltd.  In August 1997, another new entity Philips Electronics Hong Kong Ltd. was set up to take over the activities of Philips Hong Kong Ltd. formally in FY 1999/2000.

Now, Philips has developed well in China and has set up Philips China Hong Kong Group which now has several joint ventures in China.

In recent years, the subject has leased five floors comprising a total area of some 75,000 sq.ft. at Three Pacific Place, Wanchai, Hong Kong, where it consolidates its offices which were in North Point and Wanchai.

The subject has got ISO 14001 certification.

In June 2004, Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation [HKSTP] and the subject signed a lease agreement for facilities at the Science Park.  The new location is now housing several of the subject’s business units including Consumer Electronics – Mobile Infotainment and business creation activities for Personal Infotainment and mobile phones, Home Entertainment Networks, Mobile Display Systems and Philips Design which were formerly located at different offices.  The facility at Science Park has become the worldwide headquarters for Philips Mobile Infotainment and also the regional headquarters for Philips Design, one of the largest design studios in the world.  The lease covers approximately 83,000 sq.ft. of space in Building 7 at the Hong Kong Science Park.  Philips is the biggest European tenant of Science Park with 400 employees.

From its location at the Science Park, Philips is conducting research and development activities in applied technologies for electronics products and components.  Philips is also utilising the facility for business creation including market research, product creation and supply operations.

Philips of the Netherlands (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHI) is one of the world’s biggest electronics companies and Europe’s largest.  It is a global leader in colour television sets, lighting, electric shavers, medical diagnostic imaging and patient monitoring, and one-chip TV products.  Its employees in more than 150 countries are active in the areas of lighting, consumer electronics, domestic appliances, semiconductors, and medical systems.

Philips Lighting is the global market leader, with recognized expertise in the development, manufacturing and application of innovative lighting solutions. The Group has pioneered many of the key breakthroughs in lighting over the past 100 years, laying the basis for our current position.

Indoors, the Group offers specialized lighting solutions for homes, shops, offices, schools, hotels, factories and hospitals.  Outdoors, it provides lighting for public spaces, residential areas and sports arenas.  The Group also helps to make roads and streets safer for traffic and other road users (car lights and street lighting).  In addition, the Group addresses the desire for light-inspired experiences through architectural projects.  The Group also offers specific applications of lighting in specialized areas, such as horticulture, refrigeration lighting and signage, as well as heating, air and water purification, and healthcare.

Currently, the Group is operating the following sectors: Healthcare, Consumer Lifestyle, Lighting, and Group Management & Services.

Group sales amounted to €24,788 million in 2012, a 9.8% increase as compared with 2011 which was €22,579 million.

The Group recorded a net income of €231 million in 2012 as compared with a net loss of €1,291 million in 2011.

For the year of 2012, excluding favourable currency effects and portfolio changes, comparable sales were 4% above 2011, driven by all three operating sectors.  Healthcare sales grew 6%, with solid growth in all businesses.  Lighting sales were 4% above 2011, with strong growth coming from Light Sources & Electronics, mainly fuelled by market demand for LED, and Automotive, partly tempered by a sales decline at Lumileds.  Sales at Consumer Lifestyle were 2% above 2011, with double-digit growth at Domestic Appliances and Health & Wellness and mid-single-digit growth at Personal Care, tempered by a sales decline at our Lifestyle Entertainment business.

The Group’s growth geographies achieved 10% comparable growth, while mature geographies grew by a modest 1%, as a result of the overall macroeconomic developments and the continued weakness of the Western European markets, particularly Southern Europe.  In 2012, growth geographies accounted for 35% of total sales, compared to 33% in 2011.

In 2012, the most significant restructuring projects of the Group related to Lighting and Healthcare and were driven by its change program Accelerate.  Restructuring projects at Lighting centered on Luminaires businesses and Light Sources & Electronics, the largest of which took place in the Netherlands, Germany and in various locations in the US.  In Healthcare, the largest projects were undertaken at Imaging Systems and Patient Care & Clinical Informatics in various locations in the United States to reduce operating costs and simplify the organization.  Innovation, Group & Services restructuring projects focused on the IT and Financial Operations Service Units (primarily in the Netherlands), Group & Regional Overheads (mainly in the Netherlands and Italy) and Philips Innovation Services (in the Netherlands and Belgium).  Consumer Lifestyle restructuring charges were mainly related to Lifestyle Entertainment (primarily the US and Hong Kong) and Coffee (mainly Italy).

As at 31st December, 2012, the Group employed 118,087 employees (2011: 121,888).

Approximately 42% were employed in the Lighting sector, due to the continued vertical integration in this business.  Some 32% were employed in the Healthcare sector and approximately 16% in the Consumer Lifestyle sector.

Compared to 2011, the number of employees in continuing operations decreased by approximately 3,800.  This decrease reflects a reduction of 3,686 employees, mainly related to the company’s overhead reduction program, primarily at Lighting and IG&S. It also reflects the departure of 1,024 employees, mainly due to the industrial footprint reduction at Lighting, and the addition of 909 employees from acquisitions (mainly Indal).

The subject is fully supported by the Philips Group.

On the whole, in view of the background and parentage of the subject, consider it good for normal business engagements.
