Promoting awareness.

“The Group’s business in China continued to exhibit consistent growth in FY2015, with revenue up by 52.3% to hit $19.8 million, due to higher export orders from our China agent. Looking ahead, we will step up our marketing efforts to increase brand awareness and continue to introduce new products for the Manufacturing/Wholesale segment in 2016. Our application for a Direct Selling license in China is proceeding on schedule and we are moving closer to reaching our target of becoming a licensed Direct Selling company to capitalise on the huge market potential.”

Dividend for May is 0.15 cents (total for FY2015 = 0.20 cents, FY2014 = 0.08 cents)
Payout Ratio (last 3years) = 43%

Best World International Limited SGX:5ER

Looks good...

Cashflow quite strong.
Asset-light business model.
A turnaround company which improve since 2011.
Cash Rich too.

Also saw this.
Gross margin has stayed above 75% and operating cash flow has been positive for each of the past 10 years.

Quarterly result here.
http://www.bestworld.com.sg/ir-quarterly-results.html

Best world's business seems like MLM though... they have approximately 403,000 independent distributors and members in the 10 markets we operate in.

Core business specializes in the development, manufacture and distribution of premium skincare, personal care, nutritional and wellness products.

Found some things which might be kinda interesting...

Point no.1: Administrative expenses
In FY14, employee benefits expense including directors stands at $12,469,000 while the net profit for the year is $4,069,000. This means that for every dollar of profit generated, the company pays its $3.06. So this raises the qns over whether the coy is paying its employees too much or not.

Point no.2: Recording of financial asset in FY15.
The coy was queried by SGX over its recording of financial asset of $1.99m (http://bestworld.listedcompany.com/newsroom/20160311_220651_5ER_YYSVR87ZODVJZ6CT.1.pdf)
Looking at the proforma CFS, I found it weird because how did the company manage to pay $559k for financial assets (investment in debt security with maturity of less than 4 years, and yield of 4.8%) valued at $1.99m? I'll be interested to see how the company explains its accounting policy for determining the fair value of the asset...

Lol, I became aware of this company after attending the recent health expo at Suntec. Promoter mentioned that they've been listed for a long time. Looked them up and found that they were giving a healthy 5% div.

In the end decided not to buy because I wasn't sure how stable their business is. Now burst liao. Oh well :s13:
