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 electronics, petroleum products, chemicals, medical and optical devices, pharmaceuticals, and on Singapore’s 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. Growth from 2012-2017 was slower than during the previous decade, a result of slowing structural growth - as Singapore reached high-income levels - and soft global demand for exports. Growth recovered to 3.6% in 2017 with a strengthening global economy.
The government is attempting to restructure Singapore’s economy to reduce its dependence on foreign labor, raise productivity growth, and increase wages amid slowing labor force growth and an aging population. Singapore has attracted major investments in advanced manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and medical technology production and will continue efforts to strengthen its position as Southeast Asia's leading financial and technology hub. Singapore is a signatory of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), and a party to the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) negotiations with nine other ASEAN members plus Australia, China, India, Japan, South Korea, and New Zealand. In 2015, Singapore formed, with the other ASEAN members, the ASEAN Economic Community.

The
fluctuating turnover reflects the fierce competition among the existing and
new market players.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
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. |

|
|
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. |

|
|
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 : |
||||||
|
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 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
|
|
INDUSTRY
: |
TRADING |
|
According
to the Ministry of Trade and Industry, the wholesale & retail trade
sector expanded to 3.0% in the fourth quarter of 2017, moderating from the
3.3% growth in the previous quarter. The wholesale trade segment was boosted
by an improvement in foreign wholesale sales volume, which more than offset
the weakness in domestic wholesale sales volume. For the whole of 2017, the
sector expanded by 2.3%, faster than the 1.0% growth in 2016. The improvement
in growth can be attributed to the wholesale segment. |
|
|
The
domestic wholesale sales volume fell by 1.1% in the fourth quarter 2017,
reversing the 2.0% growth in the preceding quarter. The poorer outturn was
led by declines in the sales volume of household equipment & furniture
(-27%) and general wholesale merchandise (-19%), which outweighed the
increase in the sales volume of telecommunications & computers (20%). For
the whole of 2017, the domestic wholesale trade index expanded by 1.0%, a
turnaround from the 2.7% decline in 2016. |
|
|
On the
other hand, foreign wholesale sales volume rose to 6.2% in the fourth quarter
2017, a step-up from the 5.1% growth in the preceding quarter. Growth was
driven by expansions in the sales of petroleum & petroleum-related
products (11%t), telecommunications & computers (19%) and electronic
components (16%). However, growth was partly offset by a 20% decline in the
sales volume of metals, timber & construction materials. For the full
year 2017, the foreign wholesale trade index rose by 3.6%, faster than the
increase of 1.5% in the previous year. |
|
|
Besides,
retail sales volume rose by 2.1% in the fourth quarter 2017, improving from
the 0.9% growth recorded in the third quarter. Growth was supported by
improvements in both motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle sales volumes. While
motor vehicle sales benefitted from an on-year increase in COE supply, growth
in non-motor vehicle sales came on the back of an improvement in consumer
sentiments. Notably, the sales volume of discretionary goods such as
recreational goods, computer & telecommunication equipment and wearing
apparel & footwear grew by 4.6%, 4.3 % and 3.1% respectively. |
|
|
For the
full year 2017, retail sales volume expanded by 1.3%, similar to the 1.5%
growth recorded in 2016. Growth was driven by both motor vehicle sales and
non-motor vehicle sales, which the former rising by 1.5% and the latter
increasing by 1.3%. The rise in non-motor vehicle sales was underpinned by
higher sales of discretionary goods. For instance, the sales volume of
recreational goods (3.9%), watches & jewellery (2.4%), computer &
telecommunications equipment (1.7%) and wearing apparel & footwear (1.5%)
improved in 2017. |
