Overview Group revenue for the first half financial year 2010 (“1HFY10”) increased 8% to S$111.6 million as compared to the same period in last year (“1HFY09”). The increase was attributable to the increased in retail sales in all our 3 core markets. Higher operating profit of S$10.7 million and profit after tax of S$8.4 million were in line with the growth in sales. (A) Revenue Group revenue for the second quarter ending 31st December 2009 (“Q2FY10”) increased by 10% to S$58.5 million as compared to S$53.4 million achieved in last year same quarter (“Q2FY09”) mainly attributable to the increases in retail sales in all our 3 core markets, namely Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia. Revenue by Activities:
* Traditional Chinese Medicine (“TCM”) - comprising Chinese Proprietary Medicine (“CPM”), Health Foods and Medicinal Herbs. Retail – TCM revenue achieved in Q2FY10 was 14% higher than Q2FY09. Retail activities were relatively resilient at our outlets throughout the regional markets as consumers continue to recognize our premium brand and accept TCM as an alternative to western medicine and health supplements. The Group’s top selling products such as Bo Ying Compound (“BYC”), Bak Foong Pills (“BFP”), Bottled Bird’s Nest (“BBN”), Essence of Chicken (“EOC”) and Lingzhi Cracked Spores Capsules (“LCS”) continue to show steady growth. Wholesale – TCM revenue decreased by 6% to S$6.8 million in Q2FY10 due to slower wholesale stock replenishment activities in Q2FY10 and the lower wholesales in Wisconsin American Ginseng (“WAG”) products in Hong Kong. Clinic – TCM revenue was flat at S$3.6 million in Q2FY10. Revenue under Others was mainly contributed by food & beverages and rental income. Turnover by Geographical Locations:
Malaysia market lead our growth by 34% to MYR35.3 million, Hong Kong market grew 7% to HK$145.5 million while Singapore market increased by 5% to S$17.2 million. Higher sales in Malaysia were due to timing of the 130 Anniversary Sales which took place in October 09 (accounted in the second quarter FY2010) as opposed to the anniversary sales last year in September 08 (accounted in the first quarter FY2009). (B) FY2010 Retail Outlets & Clinics
In the quarter ended 31st Dec 2009, the Group added 2 (net) retail outlets. The establishment of these new outlets will further contribute to the improvement in Group turnover. (C) Profitability In line with the higher revenue in Q2FY10, Gross Profit increased by 10% to S$30.5 million compared to S$27.8 million achieved in Q2FY09. Gross Profit margin was stable at 52%. Operating Profit increased 41% to S$5.6 million due to the absence of impairment expense in this year as compare to last year, despite higher distribution and selling expenses and administrative expenses. Net Profit for Q2FY10 increased by 36% to S$4.8 million as compared to S$3.5 million in Q2FY09 was mainly attributable to the higher Group revenue achieved. (D) Distribution and selling expenses In Q2FY10, distribution and selling expenses were S$19.5 million or 11% higher than Q2FY09. The higher distribution and selling expenses were mainly due to higher advertising and promotional activities for the quarter gearing toward the Chinese New Year (“CNY”) festive session, and higher rental costs on our existing retail outlets and TCM clinics upon their lease renewals. (E) Administrative expenses In Q2FY10, administrative expenses increased by 9% to S$5.5 million as compared to Q2FY09. The increase was due to the higher staff cost incurred to support our expanding scale of operations. (F) Interest income and Interest expenses Lower interest income was due to lower fixed deposits interest offered by our principal bankers. Lower interest expenses were attributable to application of cash to retire interest bearings loans and borrowings. (G) Trade and other payables Higher trade and other payables were mainly resulted from the replenishment of inventories to meet the demand for coming CNY festive seasons in the subsequent quarters. (H) Cash flows Net cash provided by operating activities improved to S$12.1 million in 1HFY10 as compared to S$11.8 million achieved in 1HFY09. The increase in inventories by S$7.8 million and increase in trade and other payables by S$12.7 million, were the results of purchasing and stocking up of our products and hampers preparing for the Chinese New Year festive session. The Group’s gearing ratio was 31% as at 31st December 2009. 9. Where a forecast, or a prospect statement, has been previously disclosed to shareholders, any variance between it and the actual results The results for the period are in line with the prospect statement contained in the FY2009 full year announcement made on 27th August 2009. 10. A commentary at the date of the announcement of the significant trends and competitive conditions of the industry in which the group operates and any known factors or events that may affect the group in the next reporting period and the next 12 months The overall economies in the region have shown signs of recovery from the financial downturn with improved economic indicators and better employment data. These indicators should provide strong support to the retail businesses in the long run. However, there are worries of asset bubbles together with the introduction of various governments’ impending measures and withdrawing of stimulus programs. These worries will continue to diminish the general consumer sentiment in the short-term. The general market and business conditions are expected to remain challenging and competitive in the next 12 months. The Group’s strategy is to carefully manage the business risks and ride out this period of uncertainty, while cautiously anticipating new opportunities when the markets recover. 11. Dividend
