Top Glove sees glove prices to continue falling in coming months
KUALA LUMPUR (June 9): Top Glove Corp Bhd expects average selling prices (ASPs) of gloves to drop further in the coming month due to weaker demand from the US and lower raw material costs.
Its executive director Lim Cheong Guan noted that the ASP of nitrile gloves fell 20% in Top Glove's third financial quarter ended May 31, 2021 (3QFY21).
"The ASP adjustment was in line with market pricing trends and lesser sales volume to the US," he told a virtual press conference held in conjunction with the announcement of the group's latest quarterly results.
Lim expects lower nitrile latex prices as costs of the raw materials, namely butadiene and acrylonitrile, are expected to decline by 10% and 6% respectively between May and August.
"A lower natural rubber latex concentrate price is expected in the coming months as the wintering season ended in May 2021, and yields are expected to improve," he added.
The world's largest glove manufacturer posted a softer quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q) performance for 3QFY21.
Its net profit fell 29.03% to RM2.03 billion from RM2.87 billion for 2QFY21, while revenue shrank 22.42% to RM4.16 billion from RM5.37 billion, as the group was barred from exporting to the US.
The group said the weaker q-o-q performance was owing to a decline in ASPs by 16%, a lower sales quantity following a temporary halt in shipments to the US from Malaysia and higher latex as well as natural rubber latex concentrate prices.
On a year-on-year (y-o-y) basis, the group’s quarterly net profit jumped almost five times to RM2.04 billion from RM347.9 million a year earlier on a higher revenue.
Revenue climbed to RM4.16 billion for 3QFY21 from RM1.69 billion previously.
Despite the weaker earnings performance, Top Glove declared a dividend of 18 sen a share, including a special dividend of 5.3 sen.
Top Glove gained six sen to close at RM4.84 today, with a market capitalisation of RM39.72 billion. It saw 34.54 million shares traded.

Malaysia's Top Glove waits for US Customs to verify remedial labour action
09 Jun 2021 01:40PM
(Updated: 09 Jun 2021 06:41PM)
KUALA LUMPUR: Top Glove, the subject of a US import ban over concerns about forced labour, is waiting for customs authorities there to verify remedial action it has taken on workers' recruitment fees, the Malaysian firm said on Wednesday (Jun 9).
The world's largest maker of medical gloves did not know when US customs might lift the ban on its goods, but verification of the remediation payments is underway, said Managing Director Lee Kim Meow.
"We have no timeline given, but we have tried our best," he told a results briefing, adding that Top Glove was liaising closely with customs, and hoped there were no further issues.
In April, Top Glove said it had resolved all signs of forced labour in its operations, a step verified by London-based ethical trade consultant Impactt Limited.
The company said removal of the ban would boost sales, which have suffered since shipments to the United States halted temporarily in its financial third quarter.
A 68 per cent reduction in sales to North America was the main reason for volumes easing from the preceding quarter, it said.
The North American market accounted for just 8 per cent of sales during the March-May quarter, down from 23 per cent in the previous period. Total sales volume dropped 9 per cent from a year ago, the firm added.
"Nonetheless, global glove demand remains resilient as usage continues to rise, driven by the ongoing pandemic," it said.
US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) told the country's ports to seize Top Glove's goods in March, after having barred import of its products last July, citing evidence of forced labour practices at production facilities across Malaysia.
Top Glove shares closed 1.3 per cent higher on Wednesday. They have slumped more than 20 per cent this year.
STALLED LISTING
The US action has also stalled Top Glove's pursuit of a US$1 billion listing in Hong Kong, as potential investors raised concerns about the impact, Reuters has reported.
Top Glove, which has net cash of 4.23 billion ringgit, has said regulators were reviewing its listing process and it was working closely with advisers.
"Listing in Hong Kong is for the longer term," said Executive Chairman Lim Wee Chai. "(The CBP ban) caused us a delay in Hong Kong, (but it) is only temporary."
On Wednesday, Top Glove reported a jump of 485 per cent in third-quarter net profit benefiting from strong demand for gloves during the pandemic.
It had posted record profit for the four straight quarters prior, bolstered by greater use of gloves over hygiene concerns.
A stock exchange filing showed net profit for the period jumped to 2.04 billion ringgit (US$495.63 million) from 347.9 million a year ago. UBS had forecast a profit of 2.54 billion ringgit, according to Refinitiv data.
Its revenue rose 147 per cent to 4.16 billion ringgit.
Top Glove, which produces 100 billion pieces of gloves a year, said average selling prices declined during the period from February's peak, and it had made adjustments in line with market pricing trends.

KUALA LUMPUR (Feb 10): Top Glove Corp Bhd, which will release its quarterly earnings next month, has engaged in its first share buyback of the year after it stopped the exercise after Dec 14.
A bourse filing showed that the glove maker spent RM3.69 million for 600,700 shares bought back in the open market at RM6.15 per share today.
Top Glove's share price closed at the same price at RM6.15, down five sen with 20.31 million shares changing hands.
The glove maker’s share price has been on the decline this week after it rebounded to RM7.05 on Feb 2. The buying interest among the retail investors that aimed to “short squeeze” short sellers has not gathered much steam so far.
The rubber glove manufacturer currently has 178.96 million treasury shares, which is 2.19% of its total issued share capital of 8.2 billion shares.
The last time the company had engaged in a share buyback was on Dec 14 when it had spent RM3.63 million on 576,900 shares. In December alone, share buyback activity cost Top Glove RM123.5 million.
Since September, Top Glove has utilised a whopping RM1.28 billion of its cash pile for share buyback, with RM354.74 million spent in September, and RM802.55 million in November.
For perspective, the sum is about 68.6% of the group’s net profit of RM1.87 billion for its financial year ended Aug 31, 2020 (FY20) or 53.9% of the group’s net profit of RM2.38 billion for 1QFY21.

Downside risk driven by RSS & ISS and EPF selldown in the short term, dilution due to potential Top Glove listing in HK and US govt push for domestic glove production in the medium term.
So, it's a tug of war between the bulls & bears. Let's wait & see.
