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 sustained budget deficits, has forced Kuala Lumpur to begin to address fiscal shortfalls, through initial reductions in energy and sugar subsidies and the announcement of the 2015 implementation of a 6% goods and services tax. Falling global oil prices in the second half of 2014 have shrunk Malaysia’s current account surplus and put downward pressure on the ringgit. The government is also trying to lessen its dependence on state oil producer Petronas. The oil and gas sector supplies about 32% of government revenue in 2013. Bank Negara 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 earlier raised possible revisions to the special economic and social preferences accorded to ethnic Malays under the New Economic Policy of 1970, but retreated in 2013 after he encountered significant opposition from Malay nationalists and other vested interests. In September 2013 NAJIB launched the new Bumiputra Economic Empowerment Program (BEEP), policies that favor and advance the economic condition of ethnic Malays. Malaysia is a member of the 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership free trade agreement negotiations and, with the nine other ASEAN members, will form the ASEAN Economic Community in 2015.

The Subject's turnover increased steadily as the demand for its products / services increased due to the goodwill built up over the years.The higher profit could be attributed to the increase in turnover. The Subject's management had generated acceptable return for its shareholders using its assets.

The Subject's stocks were moving fast thus reducing its holding cost. This had reduced funds being tied up in stocks. The favourable debtors' days could be due to the good credit control measures implemented by the Subject. 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.

[

The Subject's liquid ratio was slightly low. This could indicate that the Subject's working capital was slightly deficient. The Subject 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.

The Subject's interest cover was slightly low. If there is no sharp fall in its profit or sudden increase in the interest rates, we believe the Subject is able to generate sufficient income to service its interest and repay the loans. The Subject was highly geared, thus it had a high financial risk. The Subject was dependent on loans to finance its business needs. In times of economic downturn and / or high interest rate, the Subject will become less profitable and competitive than other firms in the same industry, which are lowly geared. This is because the Subject has to service the interest and to repay the loan, which will erode part of its profits. The profits will fluctuate depending on the Subject's turnover and the interest it needs to pay.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Overall Assessment :

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generally, the Subject's performance has improved with higher turnover and profit. The Subject's liquidity was at an acceptable range. If the Subject is able to obtain further short term financing, it should be able to meet all its short term obligations. The Subject had an acceptable interest cover. If there is no sudden sharp increase in interest rate or fall in the Subject's profit, we do believe the Subject is able to generate sufficient cash flow to service its interest payment. The Subject's gearing level was high and its going concern will be in doubt if there is no injection of additional shareholders' funds in times of economic downturn and / or high interest rates.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

 

MSIC CODE

31 : MANUFACTURE OF FURNITURE

 

 

INDUSTRY :

FURNITURE & FIXTURES

 

 

 

Malaysia's Furniture Manufacturing Industry has been blooming in recent years. Malaysia ranks comfortably as the 10th largest exporter of furniture in the world in 2014. It exports 80% of their total furniture production around the world. With existing strong export base like Japan, United States and Australia, the nation continues its tremendous growth towards Saudi Arabia, Philippines and Russia. Malaysia is believed to diversify their export base to countries like Algeria, Greece, Puerto Rico, Libya and other countries awaiting confirmation.

 

Increased demand from major export destinations such as the US, Japan and Australia for Malaysian made furniture contributed to the higher output of wooden and cane furniture, which rebounded by 2.2% in the first seven months of 2014. Thus, shipments of wood products rebounded by 4.7% in the same time mainly driven by export growth of wooden furniture (13.4%) to the US, Japan and Australia. Amid higher demand, exports of bedroom furniture and seats with wooden frame increased significantly by 21.6% and 15.2%. However, in 2013, Malaysia's furniture export decreased 8.1% compared to 2012. Furniture exports to the United States in 2013, which is the largest market, also recorded a decrease of 6.1% compared to 2012. This performance was nevertheless commendable, taking into account the slowdown in the global economy in 2013, especially in the United States and Euro zone countries.

 

Despite numerous economic downturns, the industry is still supported by a strong global demand. While lower priced Chinese and Vietnamese furniture pose strong competition, Malaysian furniture continues to set itself apart with original design that places importance on aesthetics as well as its good work ethics. The government also plays an important role in nurturing the industry. Providing Pioneer Status for tax exemption and Investment Tax Allowance, the pro-business environment makes doing business easier and faster. With a business-friendly environment, good quality products and a high potential market, the Malaysian furniture industry is poised to exceed expectations and to continue its exponential growth.

 

Conclusively, Malaysia has always been known for its wood based furniture, owing to its natural resources. The government has set an annual growth target of 6.5% for wood based furniture, estimated to reach up to RM53 billion by year 2020. In recent years, the growth has shifted from producing general products towards designing its own, and this has been the key in propelling Malaysia onto the international arena. Popular with overseas buyers of the middle to high category, foreign buyers look to Malaysia for manufacturers who can meet their high production demand.
