Company Report

May 17, 2018
AALI’s sales whittled away 1% from IDR4.49 trillion in 1Q17 into IDR4.44 in
1Q18. Nevertheless,
its net profit tumbled 55%
from IDR801 billion in
1Q17 into IDR355 in 1Q18. The tumble was attributable to the plunge in
gross profit margin from 31% 1Q17 into 17% 1Q18.
The portion of production costs experienced no significant surge as it only
nudged up 2%. In 1Q17, its portion to sales was 76%, and nudged up 2%
into 78% in 1Q18. The decline in net profit was mainly attributable to
the
hike of 12% in finished good inventory portion to sales
.
CPO Price: Determinant of AALI’s Performance
AALI’s performance is reliant upon CPO prices in markets. We oversee that
CPO prices currently settle at its support level since 2016
; thus, the
decline in CPO prices are likely limited. Additionally, the current backdrop is
also underpinned by the decrease in Malaysia’s CPO inventories coupled
with the downbeat production. The stable demand for CPO inevitably spurs
