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 SC's turnover increased steadily as the demand for its products / services increased due to the goodwill built up over the years.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 nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. 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 :

 

 

 

 

 

 

Although the SC's turnover had increased, its profits had declined over the same corresponding period. This could be due to the stiffer market competition and / or higher operating costs which lowered the SC's profit margin. 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 did not make any interest payment during the year. The SC was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The SC was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The SC has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

The domestic wholesale trade index grew by 1.2% in the fourth quarter of 2012, an improvement from the 5.4% decline in the third quarter.

The foreign wholesale trade index grew by 8.6% in the fourth quarter, an increase from the 6.6% growth in the third quarter.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : AVERAGE GROWTH

 

CREDIT RISK EVALUATION & RECOMMENDATION

 

 


Incorporated in 1990, the SC is a Private Limited company, focusing on trading of office machinery & equipment. The SC has been existence in the market for 24 years and it has succeeded in building up its image in the market. Having strong support from its holding company has enabled the SC to remain competitive despite the challenging business environment. Strongly supported by its well-established holding company from United States, the SC is expected to enjoy timely financial and technical support should the needs arise.

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 operating on a medium scale and it has approximately 35 employees in its business 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.

Financially, the SC registered a higher turnover compared to previous year. However, its profits showed a reverse trend. The lower profit achieved was a result of higher operating cost and increased competition. 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 zero geared company, the SC virtually has no financial risk as it is mainly dependent on its internal funds to finance its business. Given a positive net worth standing at SGD 2,319,071, 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. 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.

Overall, the SC's payment habit is good as the SC has a good credit control and it could be taking advantage of the cash discounts while maintaining a good reputation with its creditors.

The industry shows an upward trend and this trend is very likely to sustain in the near terms. Hence, the SC is expected to benefit from the favourable outlook of the industry.

In view of the above favourable condition, we recommend credit be proceeded to the SC with favourable term.
