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 in 2013 implemented a nation-wide 300 baht ($10) per day minimum wage policy and deployed 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. This was expected to lead to an economic upsurge but growth has remained slow, in part due to ongoing political unrest and resulting uncertainties. Spending on infrastructure will require re-approval once a new government is seated.

The company's Account Receivable Ratio is calculated as 7.01 and 5.38 in 2013 and 2012 respectively. 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 2013 increased from 2012. 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 has decreased from 30 days at the end of 2012 to 21 days at the end of 2013. This represents a positive trend. And Inventory turnover has increased from 12.04 times in year 2012 to 17.31 times in year 2013.

 

The company's Total Asset Turnover is calculated as 2.38 times and 2.08 times in 2013 and 2012 respectively. 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.
