THAILAND - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
With a well-developed infrastructure, a free-enterprise economy,
generally pro-investment policies, and strong export industries, Thailand achieved
steady growth due largely to industrial and agriculture exports - mostly
electronics, agricultural commodities, automobiles and parts, and processed
foods. Unemployment, at less than 1% of the labor force, stands as one of the
lowest levels in the world, which puts upward pressure on wages in some
industries. Thailand also attracts nearly 2.5 million migrant workers from
neighboring countries. The Thai government is implementing a nation-wide 300
baht ($10) per day minimum wage policy and deploying new tax reforms designed
to lower rates on middle-income earners. The Thai economy has weathered
internal and external economic shocks in recent years. The global economic
recession severely cut Thailand's exports, with most sectors experiencing
double-digit drops. In late 2011 Thailand's recovery was interrupted by
historic flooding in the industrial areas in Bangkok and its five surrounding
provinces, crippling the manufacturing sector. The government approved flood
mitigation projects worth $11.7 billion, which were started in 2012, to prevent
similar economic damage, and an additional $75 billion for infrastructure over
the following seven years.

Gross Profit Margin used to assess a firm's financial health by revealing
the proportion of money left over from revenues after accounting for the cost
of goods sold. Gross profit margin serves as the source for paying additional
expenses and future savings. The company's figure is -2.15%. When compared with
the industry average, the ratio of the company was lower. This indicated that
company may have problems with control over its costs.
Net Profit Margin is the indicator of the company's efficiency in that
net profit takes into consideration all expenses of the company. A low profit
margin indicates a low margin of safety, higher risk that a decline in sales
will erase profits and result in a net loss. The company's figure is -4.37%.
When compared with the industry average, the ratio of the company was lower.
Return on Assets measures how efficiently profits are being generated
from the assets employed in the business when compared with the ratios of firms
in a similar business. A low ratio in comparison with industry averages
indicates an inefficient use of business assets. When compared with the
industry average, it was lower, the company's figure is -4.63%.

The Current Ratio is to ascertain whether a company's short-term assets are
readily available to pay off its short-term liabilities. The company's figure
is 0.99 times in 2012, decreased from 242.89 times, then the company may have
problems meeting its short-term obligations. When compared with the industry
average, the ratio of the company was lower.
The Quick Ratio is a liquidity indicator that further refines the
current ratio by measuring the amount of the most liquid current assets there
are to cover current liabilities. The company's figure is 0.12 times in 2012,
decreased from 242.89 times, then the company has not enough current assets
that presumably can be quickly converted to cash for pay financial obligations.
The Cash Conversion Cycle measures the number of days a company's cash
is tied up in the production and sales process of its operations and the
benefit from payment terms from its creditors. It meant the company could
survive when no cash inflow was received from sale for 6 days.

The company's Account Receivable Ratio is calculated as 9.16 in 2012.
This ratio measures the efficiency of the company in managing its trade debtors
to generate revenue. A lower ratio may indicate over extension and collection
problems. Conversely, a higher ratio may indicate an overtly stringent policy.
In this case, the company's A/R ratio in 2012 is 9.16. This would suggest the
company had good performance in the management of its debt collections.
Inventory Turnover in Days Ratio indicates the liquidity of inventory.
It estimates the number of days that it will take to sell the current
inventory. Inventory is particularly sensitive to change in business
activities. The inventory turnover in days is 280 days at the end of 2012. This
represents a negative trend. And Inventory turnover is 1.3 times in year 2012.
The company's Total Asset Turnover is calculated as 1.06 times in 2012.
This ratio is determined by dividing total assets into total sales turnover.
The ratio measures the activity of the assets and the ability of the firm to
generate sales through the use of the assets.
