3-    Enjoying full swing benefits from strong USD trend.

VS group does not have any currency hedging position currently as the management is of the view that the natural hedging through raw materials (with 50% of its COS in USD) is sufficient to offset the risk, especially under the current strong USD trend. On the currency sensitivity analysis according to its Annual Report 2014, every 10% fluctuations in the USD will impact its FY14 bottomline by 8.8%.
