Hi CKNGCKI3,
pls correct me if im wrong,
Both 2 items that bsngpg has mention :
1.Acceptable quality limit (tolerable process control limit)
2.Natural rubber latex average selling price from 2016 feb from RM3.55 perkg to current Rm4.55 perkg. (+29%)

Hartalega

90% produces Nitrile gloves

For item 2 :
2. Nitrile latex average selling price from 2016 feb from usd960 pertone to current usd1020 pertone. (+6.3%)

Profit margin may getting worse since 4th quarter result is base on usd960 pertone.
