FGV’s Transformation Plan Bears Fruit in 1Q2019 KUALA LUMPUR, 29 MAY 2019 – FGV Holdings Berhad (FGV) recorded a profit before interest and tax (PBIT) of RM78 million for the first quarter of the financial year ending December 2019, a 19% decline from the RM96 million registered in the previous corresponding quarter. Revenue for the period declined to RM3.3 billion, 9% lower than RM3.6 billion earned in the previous corresponding quarter, largely due to a sharp decline in crude palm oil (CPO) prices, and lower average selling price in the sugar sector.
For the period under review, CPO prices averaged RM 1,986 per metric tonne (MT), which was 20% lower than the average CPO price realised of RM 2,472 MT for 1Q2018. Despite the sharp drop in prices, revenue did not decline in tandem, mainly because of improved operational performance and lower costs.
“The plantation operations have been focused on tightening procurement processes involving capital and operating expenditures and implementing new tasking systems and processes for infield workers. These efforts are starting to bear fruit,” Dato’ Haris Fadzilah Hassan, FGV’s Group Chief Executive Officer said. “Additionally, several other estate and milling transformation initiatives have started delivering results,” he added.
For the quarter in review, the Plantation Sector recorded a profit before zakat and tax (PBZT) of RM40 million, up from RM19 million in the previous corresponding quarter. This was achieved on the back of a 6% increase in fresh fruit bunch (FFB) production to 1.05 million MT, from 991,000 MT in 1Q2018. FFB yield increased to 4.38 MT/ha, 11% up on the previous corresponding period’s 3.96 MT/ha. CPO oil extraction rate (OER) showed improvement to 20.76% from 19.75%, and thus, total CPO production increased 14% to 762,000 MT, compared to 670,000 MT previously. Improved production volumes combined with enhanced operational effectiveness and efficiencies, resulted in lower ex-mill costs in 1Q2019 of RM 1,378 per tonne, 20% lower than RM 1,728 in 1Q2018. Additionally, the sector’s improved performance is also attributable to a net reversal of impairments of receivables amounting to RM48 million.
The Group’s downstream business also performed better for the period under review. The Downstream Sector exceeded internal sales targets, primarily due to the implementation of the B10 biodiesel mandate which came into effect in February 2019. Meanwhile, the palm kernel processing business recorded a higher margin.
“We are strategically reviewing our downstream businesses and believe that they will continue to grow and contribute positively to FGV’s performance,” Haris said.
The Sugar Sector recorded a loss of RM3 million for the quarter in review, compared to a profit of RM22 million in the previous corresponding quarter. This was primarily due to an 11% and 15% decrease in the average selling price for MSM Malaysia Holdings Berhad’s domestic and industry sectors. The performance was also impacted by a higher refining cost of RM 362 per MT, an increase of 12% against 1Q2018.
The Logistics and Support Businesses Sector (LSB) recorded a loss of RM17 million, a sharp decline from a profit of RM24 million in the previous corresponding quarter. This was due to provisions for the Mutual Separation Scheme (MSS) and impairments on overdue balances in line with MFRS 9 requirements. Without the exceptional items, the LSB sector would have recorded a profit of RM24 million which is at par with the profit of the corresponding year.
Several structural changes and improvements have been made to centralise procurement functions, and 50% from targeted cost savings of RM150 million have been identified through cost-control and rationalisation exercises. FGV has also introduced and formalised its Special Voluntary Disclosure Initiative, Supplier Code of Conduct and Supplier Delinquency Guidelines for more effective, efficient and transparent procurement processes.
“This financial year has started with clear signs that FGV is on track to turnaround its operations. While we continue to monitor all our initiatives, FGV is also exploring strategic initiatives to reduce the dependence on palm oil and the impact of CPO prices. I am confident that we will be able to achieve the targets set for FY2019,” Haris added.

Positive factors are easing stockpiles in both Malaysia and Indonesia, higher exports to China given its pledge to buy 50 per cent more palm oil from Malaysia, and further clarity on new biodiesel initiatives (B30 in Indonesia and B20 in Malaysia).

SINGAPORE (May 30): Palm oil may rise to RM2,148 per tonne, driven by a wave C. This is the third wave of a presumed three-wave cycle from the May 13 low of RM1,960. It has briefly travelled above its 76.4% projection level at RM2,111. It is likely to extend to RM2,148, which is pointed by a rising trendline. Support is at RM2,089, a break below which could cause a loss into RM2,052-2,071. On the daily chart, palm oil is poised to test a pivotal resistance at RM2,144, the 100% projection level of a downtrend from RM2,896. A break above this resistance will not only confirm an escape of the price from a falling channel, but also significantly increase the chance of a double-bottom around RM1,967. The pattern suggests a target around RM2,750. (Wang Tao is a Reuters market analyst for commodities and energy technicals. The views expressed are his own.

Sugar Sector Sugar Sector registered a loss of RM2.86 million compared to RM22.01 million profit in previous financial period due to lower average selling price and higher refining costs.
LSB Sector In line with the Group’s initiatives to focus on core business, LSB Sector recorded a loss of RM16.82 million for the financial period due to the effect of proposed closure of two entities in Support Business and also change in business model of its travel division. Due to these initiatives, the Sector recorded RM25.0 million provision for separation scheme. In addition, RM16.3 million impairment was recorded on overdue balances in line with MFRS 9 “Financial Instrument” requirement. Without this provision, the Sector would have recorded a profit of RM24.48 million at par with the profit of RM23.82 million in previous year.
Plantation will bring major suprise in earning as the palm oil price has exceeded RM2100.
Plantation Sector Plantation Sector posted higher profit of RM39.83 million for the financial period ended 31 March 2019 compared to RM19.46 million in previous corresponding period. This was mainly attributed to increased contribution from downstream segment as higher margin was achieved in kernel crushing and fatty acid business. FFB production rose by 6.6% to 1.06 million mt compared to 0.99 million mt in first quarter 2018 with a yield of 4.38 mt per hectare. Whilst operations has reported higher contributions with improving sales volume by 11%, the Sector results was affected by lower CPO price realised of RM1,986 per mt compared to RM2,472 per mt in previous year. OER was reported higher at 20.76% compared to 19.75% achieved in the previous year. Improvement in the results was also associated with the reversal of impairment of RM64 million due to settlements received from customers.

Prospects The CPO price trend in 2019 will continue to be pressured by high inventory level and ample supply of oilseeds (soybean and sunflower) in the market. The exemption of palm oil export duty from May 2019 to December 2019 is expected to increase exports of Malaysian palm oil. In addition, the execution of B10 biodiesel programme for the transportation sector in December 2018 and B7 for the industrial sector in July 2019 is expected to drive palm oil demand and simultaneously reduce nation stockpile. While the CPO price will have a major impact on the Group’s financial performance, efforts to improve the Group’s operations have shown positive outcomes by the increase in FFB production and lower CPO production cost in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the corresponding period last year. With Group’s focusing on its fundamental and transformation plan, the Board anticipates that the operational performance improvement will continue for the rest of the year.

“Only thing I cannot do is set the oil palm price. No one can set the oil palm price it depends on the world market price. Any PM cannot set it, if it goes up it goes up. We cannot say is due to the PM. No PM in the word can control fuel prices,” he told the crowd of over 500 today.
