COMMENTARY ON PROSPECTS AND TARGETS, STRATEGIES AND RISKS APM is principally involved in the design, manufacturing, assembly and production of automotive and mobility components. APM’s main operation is located in Malaysia but it is also present in various other jurisdictions, including United States of America, Netherlands, Australia, Thailand, Vietnam and the Republic of Indonesia. The Group’s overall performance in the fourth quarter of 2020 is expected to be challenging and may even experience a decline, particularly in view of Bank Negara’s revision of Malaysia’s gross domestic product (GDP) growth forecast for 2020 to between -3.5% and -5.5% from -2% and 0.5%, due mainly to changes in world growth forecasts and the unprecedented length of the MCO, CMCO and RMCO. The Group’s forecast is further compounded by the present political uncertainties locally and abroad (especially that of the United States of America) and the expected disruption to the Group’s operations in light of the anticipated the second and possibly the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic In Thousands of RM 30-Sep-20 30-Jun-20 Amount % 30-Sep-20 30-Jun-20 Amount % Suspension 57,301 20,247 37,054 183.0% 4,142 (4,886) 9,028 184.8% Interior & Plastics 237,994 89,668 148,326 165.4% 21,190 (9,945) 31,135 313.1% Electricals & Heat Exchange 30,012 10,708 19,304 180.3% (238) (1,721) 1,483 86.2% Marketing 70,296 31,901 38,395 120.4% 1,518 (648) 2,166 334.3% Non-reportable segment 13,040 9,515 3,525 37.0% (361) (2,477) 2,116 85.4% Indonesia Operations 13,068 8,288 4,780 57.7% (4,408) (3,951) (457) -11.6% All Other Segments 35,987 36,341 (354) -1.0% 1,571 778 793 101.9% 457,698 206,668 251,030 121.5% 23,414 (22,850) 46,264 202.5% Eliminations (123,882) (55,089) (68,793) -124.9% 39 131 (92) -70.2% 333,816 151,579 182,237 120.2% 23,453 (22,719) 46,172 203.2% Changes Changes Segment Revenue Segment Profit/(Loss) Before Tax Page 18 APM AUTOMOTIVE HOLDINGS BERHAD (Registration No. 199701009342 (424838-D)) PART B: EXPLANATORY NOTES PURSUANT TO MAIN MARKET LISTING REQUIREMENTS OF BURSA MALAYSIA SECURITIES BERHAD B3. COMMENTARY ON PROSPECTS AND TARGETS, STRATEGIES AND RISKS (CONT’D) Nonetheless, the Group will remain vigilant and continue with its austerity measures which include, interalia deferring capital expenditure, maintaining salary reduction, hiring freeze, cost rationalization and participating in the Government’s Prihatin program to conserve cash flows. The Group will also continue its focus on long-term plans and strategies for business sustainability and continue to strive for greater success expeditiously through mergers, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint-ventures and alliances. All in all, the Group remains cautiously optimistic in view of the progress shown towards development of the COVID-19 vaccine but do not foresee pre-pandemic performance revival to occur in the short term. 20/11/2020 8:19 AM dompeilee Bought some APM 16/01/2020 3:44 PM dompeilee Luckily I averaged my 300 shrs bought for meeting purposes @ 2.60 in '17 down @ 1.69-1.70 in August just before the dividend. 10/11/2020 7:49 PM Yes because at that time, I only wanted 2 attend AGM & collect free stuff =) Waoowwww APM!!!!!
