YeosYeo Hiap Seng now focused on expanding F&B business

Re-organization and investment in the pipeline.

Yeo Hiap Seng is looking to build up its "neglected" F&B business, noted research firm Maybank Kim Eng, and it is doing so by overhauling its plants to boost efficiency and expanding Singapore

facilities to streamline operations.

Here's more from Maybank:

Management focused on F&B business. Our latest discussions with management confirm they are indeed focused on building up its F&B business. Despite the brand's long heritage and

leadership position in Asian drinks, this business has been neglected pre-restructuring (of Far East Orchard) in favor of property development. We believe the company is taking steps in

the right direction.

Reorganising operations to move ahead. For FY12, F&B operating margins were just 2.3%. These margins, which are significantly lower than peers, form our belief that there is upside potential

given its market share (no.1 for Asian drinks in Singapore/ Malaysia). The company is in the midst of reorganizing its plants to improve overall efficiency. For example, it is consolidating

into 3 plants in Malaysia and 1 plant in Guangdong, China. It is also expanding warehousing and manufacturing facilities in Singapore to reduce contract outsourcing and meet additional

demand.

Investing in Cambodia, Indonesia. These are two markets which the company has been enjoying high growth. It is therefore attaching strategic importance, by investing significantly in

manufacturing locality. In the former, it is an early entrant, enjoying premium pricing and dominant market share. In the latter, management sees a huge market which is similar to

Malaysia. These two major new plants will likely commence operations in 2015/2016.

Privatisation of YHS Berhad complete. The company completed the privatization of its Malaysia subsidiary in Jan 2013. This will give it a higher share of F&B profit going forward, which we have

factored in. Its last property project (Jardin) will be completed this year, and management will also seek to divest its sizeable landbank should opportunity arises.

Printing, with significant business presence in overseas markets and renowned for its product quality,

What can ICT bring to your business?The basic value propositions of managed ICT services are in line with the issues and

challenges faced by IT managers today. These challenges include the need to reduce

total network costs, the search for an easier way to manage communications

and IT resources, as well as ensuring seamless connectivity with business

enhancing applications.

Managed ICT services bring a host of new possibilities to the table with offerings such as

unified communications,

application profiling and acceleration, right down to

management of network equipment.

In a recent report published by IDC titled "Managed Services Help Enterprises Stay

Resilient in Tough Times", the leading analyst house takes a closer look at the impact ofmanaged services during these challenging times. There is much to explore in the

areas of cost savings, business process and technology transformation with managed

services. IDC believes that outsourcing and managed services, for several reasons, will

be more resilient to any curtailment in ICT spending than adjacent ICT industries, and

could possibly thrive in a slowdown.
