Revenue
PROFITABILITY (CONT.)
• From FY11 to FY15, FY13 recorded the highest revenue (FY13: 266 mln). However, its
revenue dropped -4.9% in FY14 and further -5.3% in FY15
• Decline of revenue is mainly due to the following challenges/issues:
• A slowdown in the global economy, which will cut the purchasing power of consumers
• HAIO’s sales challenged by the rising cost of living coupled with implementation of GST
in 2015
• Stiff competition among MLM players
• Its MLM division continued to struggle with the new product strategy of focusing on
‘small ticket’ items instead of ‘big ticket ‘items. (Kenanga 25 Sep 2014)

Revenue by Operating Segment
Wholesale Multi-level marketing Retail Others
Deteriorating of HAIO revenue
mainly attributed to the poor
performance in MLM segment
PROFITABILITY (CONT.)
• HAIO is undergoing a transformation to reduce dependency on big ticket items and
moving to health supplements, personal care and cosmetics which started in 2014
• Since then, it has introduced new small ticket items regularly
• As a result, revenue contribution from repeated sales items has doubled over the
past year to 60% in 2015, reflecting the success of the transformation effort.
PROFITABILITY (CONT.)
• The strategy also saw an increasing young and affluent Malay female population in
its distribution network
• This also bodes well for distributors as the current economic conditions have
become increasingly difficult for them to finance the purchase of big ticket items
with loans. (iCapital 3 Jul 2015)

PROFITABILITY (CONT.)
• Despite declining revenue, HAIO gross margin still maintain above 30%

Cash Conversion Cycle
Cash Conversion Cycle Days In Inventory Days In Receivables Days Payable Outstanding
LIQUIDITY (CONT.)
• HAIO’s Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) has been increasing since FY13
• "Days in Receivables" and "Days Payable Outstanding" do not change much, but
"Days in Inventory" increased drastically since FY14. Reasons:
• The strengthening of USD against MYR resulted in higher cost of material
• Increase of inventory – This may be attributed to the transformation in reducing
dependency on big ticket items and moving to health supplements, personal care and
cosmetics which started in 2014
GROWTH DRIVERS
• 19 Sep 2014 – The Group has been awarded a sole distributorship of Maotai, a
famous Chinese liquor. We reckon that this will be the another source of income for
the division. However, the reception of the product remains to be seen as whether
the drink will be popular among the local community as compared to western liquor
• 20 Nov 2014 – The Company also shifted its focus from big-ticket items, such as
water filters, to consumer-centric products like beauty and health products, of which
sales have been largely consistent and recurring in nature
• In FY15, CapEx increased 137% if compare to FY14. The retail division has been
looking for high traffic location for its new outlets and will enhance its CIS image by
refurbishing its existing outlets.
ISSUES/RISKS/CHALLENGES
• A slowdown in the global economy, which will cut the purchasing power of
consumers.
• HAIO’s sales challenged by the rising cost of living coupled with implementation of
GST in 2015
• Stiff competition among MLM players
• HAIO’s MLM is strong in Chinese modern medicine, but as for other products, it has
weaker brand name compared to other MLM players.
• Margins erosion due to the weakening of Ringgit against USD
• 25 Sep 2014 – Its MLM division continued to struggle with the new product strategy
of focusing on ‘small ticket’ items instead of ‘big ticket ‘items.

2. The current price is 2.34 as of 9 Oct 2015
3. Unit purchased is 1,000.
GOING FORWARD
• Next financial year will remain challenging in view of weakening domestic
purchasing power and high costs of living, resulting consumers more cautious in
spending
• Weakening of MYR against USD currency will increase the cost of import purchases.
• Despite the current slump in its earnings, coupled with the possibility of longer-
than-expected effect from the strategy shift, HAIO’s attractive dividend will be the
main catalyst for the stock.

This indicates that economic moats of HAIO has been eroding due to stiff competition.

However, its revenue dropped -4.9% in FY14 and further -5.3% in FY15 • Decline of revenue is mainly due to the following challenges/issues: • A slowdown in the global economy, which will cut the purchasing power of consumers • HAIO’s sales challenged by the rising cost of living coupled with implementation of GST in 2015 • Stiff competition among MLM players • Its MLM division continued to struggle with the new product strategy of focusing on ‘small ticket’ items instead of ‘big ticket ‘items. (Kenanga 25 Sep 2014)

  • 23. PROFITABILITY (CONT.) • The strategy also saw an increasing young and affluent Malay female population in its distribution network • This also bodes well for distributors as the current economic conditions have become increasingly difficult for them to finance the purchase of big ticket items with loans. (iCapital 3 Jul 2015)
  • 25. PROFITABILITY (CONT.) • Despite declining revenue, HAIO gross margin still maintain above 30% • The downtrend of gross margin is mainly attributed to its declined revenue and the strengthening of USD/MYR • The strengthening of USD/MYR will result in higher cost of material.

  • 32. LIQUIDITY (CONT.) • HAIO’s Cash Conversion Cycle (CCC) has been increasing since FY13 • "Days in Receivables" and "Days Payable Outstanding" do not change much, but "Days in Inventory" increased drastically since FY14. Reasons: • The strengthening of USD against MYR resulted in higher cost of material • Increase of inventory – This may be attributed to the transformation in reducing dependency on big ticket items and moving to health supplements, personal care and cosmetics which started in 2014
  • 33. GROWTH DRIVERS • 19 Sep 2014 – The Group has been awarded a sole distributorship of Maotai, a famous Chinese liquor. We reckon that this will be the another source of income for the division. However, the reception of the product remains to be seen as whether the drink will be popular among the local community as compared to western liquor • 20 Nov 2014 – The Company also shifted its focus from big-ticket items, such as water filters, to consumer-centric products like beauty and health products, of which sales have been largely consistent and recurring in nature • In FY15, CapEx increased 137% if compare to FY14. The retail division has been looking for high traffic location for its new outlets and will enhance its CIS image by refurbishing its existing outlets.
  • 34. ISSUES/RISKS/CHALLENGES • A slowdown in the global economy, which will cut the purchasing power of consumers. • HAIO’s sales challenged by the rising cost of living coupled with implementation of GST in 2015 • Stiff competition among MLM players • HAIO’s MLM is strong in Chinese modern medicine, but as for other products, it has weaker brand name compared to other MLM players. • Margins erosion due to the weakening of Ringgit against USD • 25 Sep 2014 – Its MLM division continued to struggle with the new product strategy of focusing on ‘small ticket’ items instead of ‘big ticket ‘items.
  • 35. SHAREHOLDER RETURN Time Frame Date Bought at Original Value Dividend Received Unrealized Gain/Loss Current Return CAGR % 3-Y 9 Oct 2012 2.06 2,340 390 280 3,010 8.8% 5-Y 8 Oct 2010 3.09 3,090 630 750 4,470 7.7% 10-Y 7 Oct 2005 0.336 336 3,090.22 5,796.67 9,222.89 39.3% Assumptions: 1. Commission paid is ignored in this simulation 2. The current price is 2.34 as of 9 Oct 2015 3. Unit purchased is 1,000.
  • 36. GOING FORWARD • Next financial year will remain challenging in view of weakening domestic purchasing power and high costs of living, resulting consumers more cautious in spending • Weakening of MYR against USD currency will increase the cost of import purchases. • Despite the current slump in its earnings, coupled with the possibility of longer- than-expected effect from the strategy shift, HAIO’s attractive dividend will be the main catalyst for the stock.

Editor's Notes

  1. Execution ability (EBIT to Avg. Book Capitalization) tries to measure how efficiently a company utilizes its capital employed. It aims to measure return on the company’s total capital investments, including real estate, intangible assets, and working capital. This factor is equivalent to ROIC, but this factor is tailored for the retail and distribution industry.
