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. Unemployment is very low. The economy depends heavily on exports, particularly of consumer electronics, information technology products, medical and optical devices, pharmaceuticals, and on its vibrant transportation, business, and financial services sectors. The economy contracted 0.6% in 2009 as a result of the global financial crisis, but has continued to grow since 2010 on the strength of renewed exports. Growth in 2014 was slower at 2.9%, largely a result of soft demand for exports amid a sluggish global economy and weak growth in Singapore’s manufacturing sector. The government is attempting to restructure Singapore’s economy by weaning its dependence on foreign labor, addressing weak productivity, and increasing Singaporean wages. Singapore has attracted major investments in pharmaceuticals and medical technology production and will continue efforts to strengthen its position as Southeast Asia's leading financial and high-tech hub. Singapore is a member of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade negotiations, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership negotiations with the nine other ASEAN members plus Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand, and in 2015, Singapore will form, with the other ASEAN members, the ASEAN Economic Community.

With its head office located in Fremantle, Western Australia (WA) and an international headquarters in Singapore, MMA Offshore is one of the largest marine service providers in the Asia Pacfic region.

This integrated operational profile of modern offshore vessels and strategically located onshore facilities uniquely positions MMA to effectively provide marine logistics services to clients throughout all phases of the offshore oil and gas development cycle.

As an employer of choice for marine professionals with world class expertise, MMA delivers unique and tailored marine solutions to its domestic and international clients safely, reliably and with a willingness to explore new possibilities.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

 

Profitability

Turnover

:

Erratic

[

2012 - 2014

Profit/(Loss) Before Tax

:

[

]

Return on Shareholder Funds

:

Unfavourable

[

1.72%

]

Return on Net Assets

:

Unfavourable

[

2.29%

]

The fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the existing and new market players.The Subject's management have been efficient in controlling its operating costs. The unfavourable return on shareholders' funds could indicate that the Subject was inefficient in utilising its assets to generate returns.

:

Favourable

[

]

Debtor Ratio

:

Unfavourable

[

91 Days

]

Creditors Ratio

:

Favourable

[

3 Days

]

The Subject's stocks were moving fast thus reducing its holding cost. This had reduced funds being tied up in stocks. The Subject's debtors ratio was high. The Subject should tighten its credit control and improve its collection period. The Subject had a favourable creditors' ratio where the Subject could be taking advantage of the cash discounts and also wanting to maintain goodwill with its creditors.

Liquidity

Liquid Ratio

:

Favourable

[

2.17 Times

]

Current Ratio

:

Favourable

[

2.17 Times

]

A minimum liquid ratio of 1 should be maintained by the Subject in order to assure its creditors of its ability to meet short term obligations and the Subject was in a good liquidity position. Thus, we believe the Subject is able to meet all its short term obligations as and when they fall due.

Solvency

Interest Cover

:

Nil

[

0.00 Times

]

Gearing Ratio

:

Favourable

[

0.00 Times

]

The Subject's interest cover was nil as it did not pay any interest during the year. The Subject had no gearing and hence it had virtually no financial risk. The Subject was financed by its shareholders' funds and internally generated fund. During the economic downturn, the Subject, having a zero gearing, will be able to compete better than those which are highly geared in the same industry.

Overall Assessment :

Although the turnover was erratic, the Subject had maintained a steady growth in its profit. This indicate the management's efficiency in controlling its costs and profitability. The Subject was in good liquidity position with its total current liabilities well covered by its total current assets. With its current net assets, the Subject should be able to repay its short term obligations. The Subject did not make any interest payment during the year. The Subject was dependent on its shareholders' funds to finance its business needs. The Subject was a zero gearing company, it was solely dependant on its shareholders to provide funds to finance its business. The Subject has good chance of getting loans, if the needs arises.

Overall financial condition of the Subject : FAIR

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

INDUSTRY :

TRANSPORTATION

In the second quarter of 2014, the transportation and storage sector grew by 2.0%. Growth in the sector was weighed down by the water transport segment. Additionally, in 2013, the sector grew by 3.0%, slower than the growth of 3.4% in 2012.

Growth in air passenger traffic remained weak at 1.7% in the second quarter of 2014, a further moderation from the 2.1% growth in the first quarter. The weakness in air passenger traffic was due to the continued fall in air passenger traffic along the Thailand-Singapore air route. Moreover, air passenger traffic grew by 5.7% in 2013, slower than the 9.9% increase in 2012. Growth was supported by resilient regional air travel. Air cargo growth rebounded to 0.8% in 2013, a reversal from the 1.6% contraction in the previous year. This came on the back of a rebound in the global Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) in the second half of 2013, which signaled a global recovery in manufacturing activities. Aircraft arrivals rose by 5.9% in 2013, the highest level recorded since data was made available.

For land transport, as of December 2013, the total number of vehicles registered with the Land Transport Authority (LTA) was 974,170, an increased of 0.4% from previous year. However, the pace of increase was slower than the 1.4% increase recorded the year before. The vehicle comprised 607,292 private and company cars, 16,396 rental cars, 27,695 taxis, 17,509 buses, 144,934 motorcycles and scooters, and 160,344 goods vehicles and other vehicle types.

Besides, for water transport, sea cargo volumes increased by 4.3% in 2013, faster than the 1.3% expansion in 2012. However, total sea cargo expanded by a much slower 2.1% in the second quarter of 2014, as compared to the 13% in the previous quarter. Furthermore, container throughput rose by 2.9% in 2013, extending the 5.7% increase in 2012. The number of twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) handled by Singapore’s ports surpassed the previous peak of 32 million in 2012, to reach a new peak of 33 million in 2013.

Under budget 2014, the government announced a new government-funded fare concession scheme so that persons with disabilities who travel by bus and train enjoy 25% discount on adult fares. Moreover, the government will introduce subsidies of up to 80% for those who require dedicated transport services to access special education and care services. Besides, the government will also subsidize those in the lower half of households through a new Taxi Subsidy Scheme, covering up to 50% of the cost.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : MATURE

This indicates that the Subject has greater potential to improve its business performance and raising income for the Subject.

We noted that both the turnover and profits have increased compared to the previous year. The higher profit could be due to increase in turnover and better control over its operating costs. The Subject has generated an unfavourable return on shareholders' funds indicating that the management was inefficient in utilising its funds to generate return. The Subject 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 Subject 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 USD 672,757,000, the Subject should be able to maintain its business in the near terms.

The Subject'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 Subject has a good control over its resources.
