 QGMD posts QR2.9mn net loss in 4Q2013 – Qatar German
Company for Medical Devices (QGMD) reported a net loss of
QR2.9mn for 4Q2013 compared to a net loss of QR2.8mn in
3Q2013 on a QoQ basis. However, the company’s 4Q2013
revenue increased to QR5.1mn from QR1.3mn in 3Q2013. For
FY2013, QGMD’s reported a higher net loss of QR7.9mn as
compared to a net loss of QR4.6mn in FY2012 primarily driven
by lower revenues, increased G&A expenses and higher
financial costs which was partially offset by increased gains on
fair value of investment properties. The company’s FY2013
revenue fell 17% on a YoY basis to QR11.4mn on account of
lower sale of syringes. For FY2013, QGMD’s Loss per Share
(LPS) amounted to QR0.68 versus LPS of QR0.40 in FY2012.

 IMF: Cannot do much about reform without US support –
The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Chief Christine
Lagarde said that there was not much she could to push reforms
at her organization and give emerging economies a bigger say
without the support from the US. In January, China had called
on IMF member nations to stick to a commitment to give
emerging markets more power at the global lender after US
lawmakers set back historic reforms that would give developing
countries a greater say. The remarks by China's foreign ministry
were an indirect criticism of the US, where lawmakers failed to
agree on funding measures needed for the reforms to move
forward. The US Congress must sign off on the IMF’s funding to
complete reforms that would make China the IMF's third-largest
member and revamp the organization’s board to reduce the
dominance of Western Europe. (Reuters)
 Central banker says defaults may be good for China
markets – According to Deputy Central Bank Governor Pan
Gongsheng, some debt defaults could be positive for market
discipline in China and help the wealth management market to
develop in a more healthy way. Gongsheng said naturally
occurring defaults may be conducive to strengthening market
discipline constraints, correcting the behavior of product issuers
and investors, and also conducive to the healthy development of
the wealth management market. Recently, Chinese Premier Li
Keqiang signaled that the government would not ride to the
rescue of every troubled investment by saying some loan
defaults are unavoidable in a challenging economic
environment. Growth in Chinese corporate debt has been
unprecedented. A Thomson Reuters analysis of 945 listed non-
financial firms showed total debt soared by around 260% to
4.74tn Yuan ($777.3bn) between December 2008 and
September 2013. (Reuters)
 China’s HSBC flash PMI falls for fifth month in row – A
preliminary private survey has showed activity in China's
factories slowed for a fifth straight month in March, raising
market expectations of government stimulus to arrest a loss of
momentum in China’s economy this year. The flash
Markit/HSBC Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) fell to an eight-
month low of 48.1 in March 2014 from February's reading of
48.5. The index has been below the 50 level since January,
indicating a contraction in the sector this year. Output and new
orders both weakened, but new export orders grew for the first
time in four months, suggesting the slowdown has been driven
primarily by weak domestic demand. (Reuters)

However, the company’s 4Q2013 revenue increased to QR5.1mn from QR1.3mn in 3Q2013. For FY2013, QGMD’s reported a higher net loss of QR7.9mn as compared to a net loss of QR4.6mn in FY2012 primarily driven by lower revenues, increased G&A expenses and higher financial costs which was partially offset by increased gains on fair value of investment properties. The company’s FY2013 revenue fell 17% on a YoY basis to QR11.4mn on account of lower sale of syringes. For FY2013, QGMD’s Loss per Share (LPS) amounted to QR0.68 versus LPS of QR0.40 in FY2012. (QE)  MCCS open to acquiring profitable foreign ventures – Mannai Corporation's (MCCS) Group CEO and Director Alekh Grewal said MCCS is open for any overseas acquisitions as long as it brings good return on investments. Grewal said the company's strategy has been global diversification (51% of revenue from international operations) which has enabled the corporation to deliver another year of record profits. He said the board's medium-term strategy is to maintain a strong capital base for growth, expansion of the company's overseas earnings and the continued development of its core business in Qatar. (Qatar Tribune)  Ashghal awards QR12bn contracts to boost road network – The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) awarded expressway contracts to the tune of QR12.6bn.

(Peninsula Qatar) International  IMF: Cannot do much about reform without US support – The International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Chief Christine Lagarde said that there was not much she could to push reforms at her organization and give emerging economies a bigger say without the support from the US. In January, China had called on IMF member nations to stick to a commitment to give emerging markets more power at the global lender after US lawmakers set back historic reforms that would give developing countries a greater say. The remarks by China's foreign ministry were an indirect criticism of the US, where lawmakers failed to agree on funding measures needed for the reforms to move forward. The US Congress must sign off on the IMF’s funding to complete reforms that would make China the IMF's third-largest member and revamp the organization’s board to reduce the dominance of Western Europe. (Reuters)  Central banker says defaults may be good for China markets – According to Deputy Central Bank Governor Pan Gongsheng, some debt defaults could be positive for market discipline in China and help the wealth management market to develop in a more healthy way.

Recently, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang signaled that the government would not ride to the rescue of every troubled investment by saying some loan defaults are unavoidable in a challenging economic environment. Growth in Chinese corporate debt has been unprecedented.
