A review of the performance of the group, to the extent necessary for a reasonable understanding of the group's business. The review must discuss any significant factors that affected the turnover, costs, and earnings of the group for the current financial period reported on, including (where applicable) seasonal or cyclical factors. It must also discuss any material factors that affected the cash flow, working capital, assets or liabilities of the group during the current financial period reported onGroup revenue of S$1.33 billion for the financial year ended 31 July 2011 (“FY11”) was lower as compared to the previous financial year (“FY10”) of S$1.55 billion mainly due to lower shipments to hard disk drive customers and a weak US dollar.Revenue from the Electronics Manufacturing Services (“EMS”) division decreased by 12.5%to S$1.22 billion in FY11 as compared to S$1.40 billion in FY10.Revenue from the Precision Engineering Services (“PES”) division decreased by 27.2% toS$110.1 million in FY11 as compared to S$151.3 million in FY10.Lower capacity utilization coupled with high manufacturing costs and write off of moulds and toolings resulted in a decrease in the Group gross profit for FY11 by 59.5% to S$15.1 million as compared to S$37.3 million for FY10. Gross profit margin for FY11 was also lower at 1.1% compared to 2.4% in FY10.Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased by 9.3% to S$28.4 million compared to FY10 of S$26.0 million due to a charge for impairment on fixed assets in the PES division of S$4.8 million. Excluding this impairment charge, Selling, General and Administrative expenses decreased by 9.3% as compared to FY10 due to exchange gain.Despite a Group loss before taxation in FY11, provision was made for taxation due to certain subsidiaries being profitable.Finance costs decreased by 20.5% to S$1.8 million due to lower bank borrowings.Overall, the Group loss attributable to equity holders of the Company for FY11 amounted to S$17.5 million as compared to a profit of S$6.9 million in FY10. Accordingly, the basic loss per share for FY11 was (3.26) cents compared to earnings per share of 1.30 cents in FY10.The lower balances in trade debtors, inventories and trade creditors were in line with the lower revenue and manufacturing activities.The Group’s continuing focus on working capital management resulted in lower bank borrowings as at 31 July 2011.9. Where a forecast, or a prospect statement, has been previously disclosed to shareholders, any variance between it and the actual resultsThe Company issued a profit guidance on 21 September 2011.10. A commentary at the date of the announcement of the 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 monthsThe business environment in our industry remains highly challenging and competitive with a sluggish US economy, the Eurozone crisis, inflation in Asia and volatile currencies. Continuing uncertain demand from our customers especially in the technologically challenged hard disk drive industry may result in lower sales. Generally higher manufacturing costs in countries where the Group operates are also making cost containment increasingly difficult. However, the Group will continue to focus on achieving higher productivity, reducing manufacturing costs and broadening customer base to reduce our reliance on the hard disk drive industry.11.
