HONGKONG - ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

Hong Kong has a free market economy, highly dependent on international trade and finance - the value of goods and services trade, including the sizable share of re-exports, is about four times GDP. Hong Kong has no tariffs on imported goods, and it levies excise duties on only four commodities, whether imported or produced locally: hard alcohol, tobacco, hydrocarbon oil, and methyl alcohol. There are no quotas or dumping laws. Hong Kong's open economy left it exposed to the global economic slowdown that began in 2008. Although increasing integration with China, through trade, tourism, and financial links, helped it to make an initial recovery more quickly than many observers anticipated, its continued reliance on foreign trade and investment leaves it vulnerable to renewed global financial market volatility or a slowdown in the global economy. The Hong Kong government is promoting the Special Administrative Region (SAR) as the site for Chinese renminbi (RMB) internationalization. Hong Kong residents are allowed to establish RMB-denominated savings accounts; RMB-denominated corporate and Chinese government bonds have been issued in Hong Kong; and RMB trade settlement is allowed. The territory far exceeded the RMB conversion quota set by Beijing for trade settlements in 2010 due to the growth of earnings from exports to the mainland. RMB deposits grew to roughly 12.5% of total system deposits in Hong Kong by the end of 2014. The government is pursuing efforts to introduce additional use of RMB in Hong Kong financial markets and is seeking to expand the RMB quota. The mainland has long been Hong Kong's largest trading partner, accounting for about half of Hong Kong's total trade by value. Hong Kong's natural resources are limited, and food and raw materials must be imported. As a result of China's easing of travel restrictions, the number of mainland tourists to the territory has surged from 4.5 million in 2001 to 47.3 million in 2014, outnumbering visitors from all other countries combined. Hong Kong has also established itself as the premier stock market for Chinese firms seeking to list abroad. In 2014 mainland Chinese companies constituted about 50% of the firms listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and accounted for about 60.1% of the Exchange's market capitalization. During the past decade, as Hong Kong's manufacturing industry moved to the mainland, its service industry has grown rapidly. Credit expansion and tight housing supply conditions have caused Hong Kong property prices to rise rapidly; consumer prices increased by more than 4.4% in 2014. Lower and middle income segments of the population are increasingly unable to afford adequate housing. Hong Kong continues to link its currency closely to the US dollar, maintaining an arrangement established in 1983. In 2014, Hong Kong and China signed a new agreement on achieving basic liberalization of trade in services in Guangdong Province under the Closer Economic Partnership Agreement, adopted in 2003 to forge closer ties between Hong Kong and the mainland. The new measures, effective from March 2015, cover a negative list and a most-favored treatment provision, and will improve access to the mainland's service sector for Hong Kong-based companies.

GENERAL

 

Oerlikon Textile Far East Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Oerlikon Textile GmbH & Co. KG [OTG] which is a Germany-based firm.  In turn, OTG is a subsidiary company of OC Oerlikon Corporation AG [OCOC], a Switzerland-based firm which is the holding company of the Oerlikon Group.

 

The subject is trading in all kinds of manmade fibre and other textile products.  It is part of OTG.  Commodities are sourced from Asian countries and re-exported to worldwide countries, especially Switzerland and other European countries.

 

At the beginning of 2007, the Swiss high-tech group OCOC acquired Saurer AG [Saurer].  The Oerlikon Group now consists of five segments, including the new business units from Saurer.  The Textile division of Saurer becomes the segment Oerlikon Textile, Barmag becomes Oerlikon Barmag and forms one of the five business units in the Textile segment.

 

Oerlikon Barmag is an established mechanical engineering company in the manmade fibre industry and can look back over decades of development and construction of highly productive and innovative spinning lines and texturing machines.

 

In addition to spinning and texturing systems, the core competencies include the manufacture of components for manmade fibre production such as extruders, winders, pumps and godets.  Oerlikon Barmag consistently extended its product range to polycondensation systems and components for chemical and industrial applications.

 

The Oerlikon Group is one of the innovative and research-intensive industrial groups in the world.

 

The Group’s business segments are the following four:-

·         Surface Solutions Segment;

Manmade Fibres Segment;

Drive Systems Segment; &

Vacuum Segment.

 

The leading technology solutions of the Oerlikon Group provides its customers with decisive advantages – both industrial and commercial customers as well as private end consumers.  Customers like Sony, Bosch, CMC, Kraft Foods, Ferrari, Reliance and Caterpillar use production technologies and components from Oerlikon Group.

 

For the year ended 31st December, 2014, the sales of the Group amounted to CHF 3,215 million (2013: CHF 2,770 million); net income for the year was CHF 202 million (2013: CHF 201 million).

 

Oerlikon reported positive operational performance in 2014.  Subsequent to effects from the acquisition and divestment, EBITDA was at CHF 525 million, while EBIT reached CHF 360 million, corresponding to strong margins of 16.3 % and 11.2 % respectively.  For the fourth consecutive year, the Group achieved an EBITDA margin exceeding 15 % and a double-digit EBIT margin, even after absorbing the one-time integration and acquisition accounting effects from the Metco transaction.

 

For the first half-year of 2015, the Group increased its orders by 8.7% to CHF 1,524 million while sales went up by 4.8 % to CHF 1,563 million (same period of 2013: CHF 1,492 million).  At constant exchange rates, the Group’s sales increased by 10.3%, amounting to CHF 1,646 million.  The EBITDA margin for the first half-year was at 16.9 %.

 

The Group’s solid profitability also reflects the positive impacts from its operational excellence initiatives and prudent cost management.  Net income for the first half of 2015 amounted to CHF 87 million (same period of previous year: CHF 122 million).

 

The major strategic milestone in 2014 was the acquisition of Metco from Sulzer AG – this is the Group’s tenth strategic portfolio-shaping transaction since 2010.  Acquiring Metco was an important step for Oerlikon, creating a global technology leader for surface solutions.  The new Surface Solutions Segment, consisting of Oerlikon Balzers and Oerlikon Metco, significantly strengthens and broadens the Group’s technological capability and creates its largest Segment.

 

As at 30th June, 2015, the Oerlikon Group had 15,629 employees (2014: 15,656).

 

The subject is fully supported by Oerlikon Manmade Fibres Segment and ultimately by the Oerlikon Group.

 

On the whole, in view of the parentage and background of the subject, consider it good for normal business engagements.
