Revenue Analysis

Revenue Changes

• Thailand – Revenue decreased by $8.4 million from $175.3 million in 2013 to $166.9 million in 2014, or 4.8%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the fact that the volatile political situation adversely impacted the level of infrastructure investment and customer demand for our products.

• North Asia – Total sales increased by $45.5 million, or 65.6%, from $69.3 million in 2013 to $114.8 million in 2014. The increase in sales was primarily due to the fact that starting November 2013, the region's export sales were no longer made through EPAN, and as a result, a substantial portion of the export sales was moved to the North Asia region. The increase in sales was also contributed by the increase in the sales of manufactured products due to a different sales strategy, which increased both domestic and export sales.

• ROW – Revenue decreased by $46.4 million, or 21.5%, from $216.0 million in 2013 to $169.6 million in 2014. The decrease was primarily because starting November 2013, a substantial portion of the export business was transferred to the North Asia region rather than being conducted through the ROW region. The decrease was also attributable to the decrease in sales in APEC due to stronger competition in the Australia market and the depreciation of the Australian dollar.

Gross Profit Margin Analysis

Gross Profit Margin Changes

•Thailand – The gross margin was 9.52% in 2014, down from 15.05% in 2013, a decrease of 36.7%. Our major clients in this region included government entities, private sector participants in the infrastructure sector and agents for governmental entities. The unstable political environment adversely affected Thai government’s spending on infrastructure. The gross margin of the Thailand region was eroded by the decrease in sales to the public sector, from which our subsidiaries in the Thailand region enjoyed a higher profit margin.

•North Asia – The gross profit margin was down from 4.47% in 2013 to 3.87% in 2014. The Company’s main product in this region is enameled wire, as the technology required to manufacture the product is low and the manufacturing process is not sophisticated, the Company’s business in the region was adversely affected by competition in the local market. In order to maintain the market share without sacrificing the product quality, the Company lowered the selling price to match competitors’ prices.

•ROW – The gross profit margin decreased from 10.34% in 2013 to 9.68% in 2014. The decrease of the gross margin was primarily due to the competition in the Australia market, where the Company’s Australia subsidiary lowered the selling price to compete with similar products imported from China by other competitors.
