Manufacturing costs

Total manufacturing costs account for about 80% of the selling price; therefore, any changes in green coffee and sugar

prices could impact significantly on the company’s profitability. However, the company holds substantial power to transfer

the increased costs to customers by increasing selling price. In 2008 and 2009 when there were shortages of coffee and

sugar due to bad weather, coupled with applying good inventory management, the company increased selling prices by

about 5% per annum and was able to preserve margins of 20% despite higher manufacturing costs.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Financial Highlights

Overall, the company has shown an improved turnover trend. Sales increased tremendously from VND1.02 trillion in 2009 to VND1.30 trillion in 2010 before further up to VND1.59 trillion in 2011. Cost of sales increased from VND774.14 billion in 2009 to VND1.19 trillion in 2011. The trend observed for the cost of sales mirrors that of turnover. The cost of sales reached its high in 2011. Meanwhile, general operating expenses also increased from VND129.30 billion in 2009 to VND202.45 billion in 2011. Sales together with other non-operating income as well as extraordinary item have proved sufficient to fully cover cost of sales, general operating expenses, financial expenses and income tax incurred in 2011. Net profitability was sustained for three years, with continuously growth from VND98.04 billion in 2009 to VND161.56 billion in 2010 and later expanded to VND211.11 billion in 2011. The company enjoyed profitability in all the years as a result of its ability to control its costs. Gross profit margin has slided from 24.30% in 2009 to 20.96% in 2010 but later rose to its all time high of 24.73% in 2011 whereas pre-tax profit margin increased from 9.61% in 2009 to 14.72% in 2011. Similarly, net profit margin increased from 9.59% in 2009 to to 13.31% in 2011. Return wise, there were better results in 2011 compared to 2010. The company was more efficient in generating returns from both assets and equity invested. Current ratio rose from 0.80 in 2009 to 8.87 in 2011. Meanwhile, quick ratio also showed an increasing trend, increasing from 0.39 in 2009 to 4.11 in 2010 before rising to 5.94 in 2011. The improvement in both ratios was largely attributed to an increasing current assets position, which posted average increment of 80.76% as opposed to a 46.10% decrease by average in current liabilities for three financial years under review. To determine if the company can meet its short term debt obligations, the ratios should be compared to their respective benchmarks. The benchmarks for the current ratio and quick ratio are 1.20 and 1.00 respectively. Both the current and quick ratios surpass these. Therefore, the company may have sufficient liquid assets to meet its current debt obligations. Inventory conversion period increased from 49.76 days in 2009 to 58.09 days in 2011, implying that it took a longer time for the company to turn its stocks into sales. Payment period decreased to 6.28 days in 2011 as compared to 34.81 days in 2009. Meanwhile, collection period lengthened from 13.04 days in 2009 to 37.35 days in 2011. Both asset and fixed asset turnover ratios increased to 1.94 and 46.80 times respectively in 2011 from 1.62 and 4.02 times respectively in 2009. All in all, the company was more efficient to capitalizing on its assets to generate better returns. Total debt to asset ratio has been decreasing, posting at 10.87% in 2011. Therefore, the company has continued to rely on more equity than debt to fund its assets. The debt ratio in 2011 suggests that the company has undertaken a low level of total debt obligations.

CURRENT INVESTIGATION On 27 May 2013, Ms. Pham Thi Tham, the Office Manager-Administration of Subject, confirmed operational and historical information in this report. All other information was obtained from external sources including local registry. MEDIA ABC JSC looks for market caffeine high. Two of the leading companies in Vietnam growing coffee industry, ABC is planning robust expansions as competition intensifies over the growing domestic and international coffee markets. Both companies claim leadership in the production of instant coffee and boast of bigger ambitions ahead. While Trung Nguyen is touting its progress in exporting instant coffee to the growing Chinese market and elsewhere, ABC - now part of the Masan Group empire - is talking more about the domestic market. We have ambitious plans to hold up to 80 per cent of the instant coffee market and 51 per cent of the roasted ground coffee market in Vietnam by 2016, said ABC JSC Deputy CEO Nguyen Thanh Tung. The early performance of its new flavoured instant coffee brand, called Wake-up, has been a source of encouragement. The southern Dong Nai province-based company 2016 vision envisages it among the top three largest listed companies in Vietnam food and beverage industry, he added. Source: VietnamNet

Industry News Vietnam's coffee export market slowed on Tuesday as exporters sought to sell on par with London futures and buyers did not rush as their stocks were high, partly boosted by rising shipments so far this season, traders and the government said. Farmers slowing sales, anticipating prices to rise on reports that the crop this year will fall from a record high in 2011/2012, would also keep trade quiet, traders said. Vietnam, the world's second-largest producer after Brazil, has picked more than half of its 2012/2013 crop, but falling global prices also prompted growers to hold back sales. London's January contract eased $5, or 0.3 percent, to settle at $1,854 a tonne on Monday after dipping to $1,836, the lowest level for the second month since Feb. 6. Exporters were seeking to sell on par with London's January for Vietnamese beans grade 2, 5 percent black and broken, while bids were static at $50 a tonne.

The January contract has now lost 15.5 percent since Vietnam's 2012/2013 crop year began on Oct. 1, while robusta prices have dropped at a slightly slower pace of about 12 percent in the same period. Prices in Daklak, the top growing province, eased to 37,400-38,000 dong ($1.79-$1.82) per kg on Tuesday, from 37,900-38,200 dong a week ago and 42,800 dong on Oct. 1. "The domestic market prices are sky-high," a trader in Ho Chi Minh City said. The crop year lasts from October to September of the following year. "Coffee is plentiful in warehouses now, so not many are buying yet," another trader in Ho Chi Minh City said. Growers have been selling slowly so far this year because they assumed the crop could shrink from the record high output of 2011/2012, traders said. The new crop could ease 9 percent from last year to 24.2 million bags, due to adverse weather, the U.S. Department of Agriculture attached in Vietnam has said. Vietnam exported an estimated 110,000 tonnes, or 1.83 million bags, of coffee in November, an increase of 55.6 percent from a year earlier, and exceeding market expectations, a government report said on Tuesday. Coffee exports in October and November would double to around 212,000 tonnes, or 3.53 million 60-kg bags, from 103,000 tonnes a year ago, the report said. The rising exports could push down global prices as the harvest peak led to ample supplies, traders said. Traders said old-crop beans would be nearly 150,000 tonnes, or 70 percent of the two-month shipment, suggesting the 2011/2012 crop produced 1.75 million tonnes, a record high. Vietnam had exported 1.6 million tonnes of coffee between October 2011 and this September, up 23 percent from the previous season, government data show. ($1=20,840 dong) Source: Reuters – 27 November 2012 Over 50 percent of the coffee material market was once controlled by foreign enterprises. At that time, pessimistic forecasts were given about the Vietnam’s coffee industry worth three billion dollars. However, Vietnamese coffee enterprises decided that they should not be defeated on the home market. In the 2010-2011 crop, Vietnam witnessed the bankruptcy and dissolution of a series of domestic coffee enterprises and the strong growth of foreign enterprises in the “opponent’s market.” Two years were enough for foreign enterprises to increase their market share from 10 percent to 50 percent. The enterprises attempted to control the material market, pushing domestic enterprises into deadlock. In the 2010-2011 crop, coffee had been sold out by farmers just by early the second quarter of 2011. However, the storehouses of domestic enterprises were empty, because the majority of coffee had been sold to foreign enterprises. As a result, domestic enterprises lacked materials for processing to fulfill the contracts signed before with foreign partners. Meanwhile, at that time, domestic enterprises did not receive the support from the local authorities, which believed that farmers had the right to sell coffee materials to those, who pay higher prices. At that time, foreign enterprises could easily gain the upper hand in the struggle to collect coffee materials. Since foreigners could borrow capital at low interest rates of 2-3 percent (Vietnamese had to pay 20 percent per annum), and they did not have to invest to grow the material areas, they could pay higher to farmers than Vietnamese enterprises. Nevertheless, according to Nguyen Nam Hai, General Director of Vinacafe, the foreigners’ market share has reduced from 50 percent to 30 percent. The public debt crisis in Europe is believed to be the main reason which has weakened foreign groups. Meanwhile, domestic enterprises, which have learnt the lesson from the defeat in the last coffee crop, have successfully joined forces to regain the material market share. The information has been confirmed by Do Ha Nam, Deputy Chair of the Vietnam Coffee and Cocoa Association (Vicofa) Do Ha Nam. Nam said that after some coffee enterprises incurred heavy losses in the 2010-2011crop, Vietnamese enterprises have regained their strength, becoming the key coffee exporters. Seventy percent of coffee exports in the 2011-2012 belong to domestic enterprises.

However, the good information is still not enough to the Vietnam’s coffee industry. Since the beginning of the year, local newspapers have continually named the coffee enterprises incurring heavy debts of up to trillions of dong. Vietnam has 150 enterprises exporting coffee products every year. The biggest exporter can export 200,000 tons, while small private businesses only export some hundreds of tons. BMT, which is considered the “eldest brother” in the coffee industry, has bogged down in big difficulties after three failure crops. In its golden age, in 2008-2009, the company led the top 10 Vietnamese coffee exporters, exporting 150,000 tons of coffee, earning 237 million dollars, holding 14.33 percent of the market share. However, the price fluctuations in the 2009-2010 crop then made the enterprise suffer. Many other coffee companies in the Central Highlands are facing the same problems: they have to borrow capital at sky high interest rates and cannot pay bank debts. Source: VietnamNet – 30 October 2012 The market research service provider AC Nielsen has clarified that the domestic instant coffee industry gained healthy revenue growth in this year’s first half and market leader was Nestle, not Trung Nguyen’s G7. This is the latest move made by Nielsen with an aim to clarify the information released by Trung Nguyen Coffee Corporation last week which the market researcher said to be misleading. The coffee maker last Wednesday held a press briefing to announce its dominance in local instant coffee market under a market survey by Nielsen. It stated G7 brand captured a dominating market share of 38% in 2011 and the figure rose to 40% in the first quarter of this year. However, Nielsen later denied the given information. “What has been said by Trung Nguyen is not our official information,” according to Nielsen. Trung Nguyen’s G7 only takes lead in 3 in 1 instant coffee sector, not the whole instant coffee industry, according to the survey result. The result was sent to Trung Nguyen Coffee Corporation but it was still embargoed. The market research firm confirmed it has yet to send any official document to confirm the final result with Trung Nguyen. It would create ambiguity when the firm reckoned the No.1 instant coffee brand was G7. “Such untrue information could adversely affect the reputation of Nielsen and other instant coffee brands,” said a representative of Nielsen. Local coffee powder and instant coffee sectors saw positive signs in the year’s first half. In particular, instant coffee market saw robust revenue growth in six big cities, mainly in HCMC. Nestle takes the lead in the domestic instant coffee market, followed by Trung Nguyen, and Vinacafe Bien Hoa, according to the latest release. Source: The Saigon Times – 10 July 2012

Financial Ratio Glossary

Key Business Ratios are used to identify irregularities in the status and future potential of a company.

Name Formula Explanation

Current Ratio (x)

Total Current Assets / Total Current Liabilities

This ratio shows the cover by current assets of short term creditors, and the higher the ratio the more assurance there is that payment of creditors can be met.

Current Liabilities to Net Worth (%)

(Total Current Liabilities / Tangible Net Worth) x100

This contrasts the funds that creditors are temporarily risking with a company with the funds permanently invested by the owners. The higher the ratio the less security for creditors. Care should be exercised when selling to any company with creditors of less than one year exceeding two thirds of net worth.

Asset Turnover (%)

(Turnover / Total Assets(including Intangibles)) x 100

This ratio measures how efficient the company's management has been in generating sales from the assets at its disposal. The measure can vary considerably from industry to industry and should therefore be judged according to the industry norm.

Profit Margin (%)

(Profit before Tax / Turnover) x 100

This reveals the profits earned per pound of sales and therefore measures the efficiency of the operation. This ratio is an indicator of the business' ability to withstand adverse conditions such as falling prices, rising costs or declining sales

Return on assets (%)

(Profit before Tax / Total Assets) x 100

This is the key indicator of profitability for a company it matches operational profits with the assets available to earn a return. Companies using their assets efficiently will have a relative high return while less well run businesses will have a relatively low return
