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. NAJIB's Economic Transformation Program (ETP) is a series of projects and policy measures intended to accelerate the country's economic growth. The government has also taken steps to liberalize some services sub-sectors. 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 about 35% of government revenue in 2011. Bank Negera Malaysia (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.

Financial Analysis

 

Profitability

 

 

 

 

 

 

Turnover

:

[

2007 - 2011

Return on Net Assets

:

Unfavourable

[

8.56%

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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. The unfavourable return on shareholders' funds could indicate that the SC was inefficient in utilising its assets to generate returns.

]

 

Creditors Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

127 Days

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC could be incurring higher holding cost. As its capital was tied up in stocks, it could face liquidity problems. The SC's debtors ratio was high. The SC should tighten its credit control and improve its collection period. The unfavourable creditors' ratio could be due to the SC taking advantage of the credit granted by its suppliers. However this may affect the goodwill between the SC and its suppliers and the SC may inadvertently have to pay more for its future supplies.

Current Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

1.17 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC's liquid ratio was slightly low. This could indicate that the SC's working capital was slightly deficient. The SC will have to improve its liquidity position either by obtaining short term financing or increase its paid up capital so that it can meet all its short term obligations as and when they fall due.

:

Unfavourable

[

]

 

Gearing Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.60 Times

]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SC's interest cover was low. If its profits fall or when interest rate rises, it may not be able to meet all its interest payment. 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 :

 

 

 

 

 

 

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's liquidity was at an acceptable range. If the SC is able to obtain further short term financing, it should be able to meet all its short term obligations. If there is a fall in the SC's profit or any increase in interest rate, the SC may not be able to generate sufficient cash-flow to service its interest. 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 :

ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC

 

 

 

The Electrical & Electronics (E&E) industry is the leading industry within the manufacturing sector and is the largest contributor to manufacturing output, employment, investment, exports and imports. Malaysia is a key player in the fast expanding Asia Pacific E&E market, its major export destinations include Singapore, United States, Europe, Japan and Taiwan. The E&E industry is targeted under the National Key Economic Areas ( NKEA ) to gear the nation towards high-income economy by focusing on high-value and high-growth manufacturing activities.

 

According to Ministry of Finance, in the year 2013 the electrical and electronic (E&E) subsector is expected to grow further, driven by higher demand for electronic equipment and parts as well as semiconductors in line with recovery in advanced economies.

 

Output of E&E rebounded 1.6% during the first seven months of 2012 mainly driven by the higher production of semiconductor devices (14.5%) as well as audio, visual and communication apparatus (6%). The improved performance of E&E was partly due to chip vendors and storage producers taking advantage of stable prices and supply of parts to replenish inventories as well as the launching of new products which was delayed by massive floods in Thailand during the fourth quarter of 2011.

 

Despite the slowdown in global demand, E&E manufacturers continued to invest in new technology and product development to upscale the value chain. Approved capital spending in the E&E subsector amounted to RM1.72 billion in 46 projects, of which RM1.35 billion were from foreign investors. This further reaffirms Malaysia as an attractive and cost-efficient E&E manufacturing base in the region. The continued strong investments will further strengthen growth in the E&E subsector and create more skilled jobs.

 

Softening of world demand for solar panels impact Malaysia on it's downturn in small scale compared to China where it facing great impact. The decline in E&E products was also due to the weak global demand.

 

E&E has been instrumental in the development of the Northern Corridor Klang Valley, Johor and Sarawak, contributing significantly to the socio-economic development of the relevant communities.However, the E&E sector faces significant challenges in maintaining growth with intense competition from China, Taiwan, Singapore and other Asian countries. Over the last 10 years, E&E's share of Malaysian exports has gradually declined.

 

Malaysia's E&E sector remains focused on assembly, the lower value-added part of the industry while Taiwan, South Korea and Singapore have captured the higher value-added activities in research and development, design and manufacturing.

 

To propel the E&E industry to a higher level, under the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) launched by the Government, a few sub-sectors namely integrated circuits, solar photovoltaics, light emitting diodes, and solid state lighting & integrated electronics have been identified for greater promotion based on their potential to contribute significantly towards Gross National Income (GNI) targets 2020.

The SC has been in business for over two decades. It has built up a strong clientele base and satisfactory reputation will enable the SC to further enhance its business in the near term. The SC is expected to enjoy a stable market shares. Having strong support from its holding company has enabled the SC to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment. The SC is a large entity with strong capital position. We are confident with the SC's business and its future growth prospect.


Over the years, the SC has penetrated into both the local and overseas market. The SC has positioned itself in the global market and is competing in the industry. Its stable clientele base will enable the SC to further enhance its business in the near term. The SC is a fairly large and rapidly growing company with over 300 staff in its operations 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.


The SC's business performance showed a reverse trend as both its turnover and pre-tax profit have decreased compared to the previous year. The SC has generated an unfavourable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate return. However, the SC managed to maintain an adequate liquidity level, indicating that the SC has the ability to meet its 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 45,084,360, the SC should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.


The SC's supplier are from both the local and overseas countries. This will eliminates the risk of dependency on deliveries from a number of key suppliers and insufficient quantities of its raw materials. Overall the SC has a good control over its resources.


The SC's payment habit is average. With its adequate working capital, the SC should be able to pay its short term debts.

The industry has reached its maturity stage and only enjoying a marginal growth. The steady growth of the country's economy will further enhance the industry activities. Thus, the SC's future performance is very much depend on its marketing strategies in order to retain its position in the market.
