Hi,
Noted that gross margin is 18.5% for 1H 2010, against 19.1% a year ago. Gross profit improved 34% to S$13.5 million.
Net margin, however, is only 4.4% for 1H 2010 (fairly low) and finance costs also increased 45%. ROE is about 11% if I annualized 1H 2010's profit number.
Balance Sheet looks fairly decent with the Company in a net cash position of about S$8.7 million.
FCF was about S$6.2 million for 1H 2010, and for 1H 2009 there was also +ve operating cash flows and FCF.
Probably I will need more time to dig into other aspects of the Company before being able to comment further, but this is just my initial review.
