• Pre-pandemic, we had a lead time of around 30 to 40 days. Given the increased demand, our current lead time has extended to 620 days for nitrile gloves, 400 days for natural rubber gloves, 250 days for vinyl gloves and 110 days for surgical gloves.
• The lead time for natural rubber gloves has shortened since July 2020, following new natural rubber glove production lines coming onstream and the switching of some surgical glove production lines to produce natural rubber gloves. Lead times by product are depicted below:
• As a protective barrier for medical personnel in the healthcare sector
• Increasing hygiene standards and healthcare awareness for both medical and non-medicalsector
• Progressively stringent healthcare regulations
• Healthcare reforms in US and China, and regulations such as OSHA in US, EU-OSHA in Europe, SESI in Brazil
• Emergence of health threats such as COVID-19, H1N1, SARS, bird flu, Ebola, bio-terrorism |
6. What are Top Glove’s plans to increase its manufacturing production capacity and how much capital spending is budgeted over the next few years for the different phases of its capacity enhancements? • We will continue to expand our capacity to ensure that we are well-positioned to fulfil global glove demand, which is expected to grow from a pre-COVID-19 level of about 10% per annum, to about 15% per annum postCOVID-19, on the back of increased usage in both the medical and non-medicalsectors. • We have earmarked RM10 billion of capital expenditures over the next 5 years from FY2021 to 2025, to provide us with additional capacity of 100 billion pieces of gloves. Factory F41, which is the Group’s first factory in Vietnam, is expected to come onstream in October 2020, the initial production capacity for which is approximately 2.4 billion pieces of gloves from its 10 production lines. 7. What research & development (R&D) plans does Top Glove have to boost efficiency? • Top Glove continues to focus on R&D, invest in talent by recruiting researchers to develop more automation and artificial intelligence, and embark on industry 4.0 digitalisation. We now have 752 researchers and 6 R&D centres as at September 2020. We also employ 1,500 graduates and experienced talents annually to ensure a strong staff force. • Over the years, we have improved our productivity by 80%, reducing from 8.4 Workers Per Million (WPM) pieces of gloves to the current 1.8 WPM and expect this number to continue to decrease. We will continue to invest in R&D towards enhancing the Group’s productivity and efficiency – hence Top Quality, Top Efficiency. 8. What is the Group’s current dividend policy? Will the Group maintain or change this policy going forward? • Top Glove has a dividend payout policy of 50% of PAT after minority interests. For FY2020, we have a dividend payout ratio of 51%, with 8.5 sen final dividend to be paid on 3 November 2020. We have revised the dividend payments to be on a quarterly basis effective FY2021 in January, April, July and November, and we will review the policy going forward. 9. What is Top Glove’s value proposition to its shareholders and potential investors?
• Top Glove has delivered a shareholders’ return of 40,679% over the past 20 years since our IPO in 2001. In just 4 years of our listing on the SGX, we have generated total shareholders return of 987% since 2016. |
• We have seen steady growth since our listing in 2001, with Revenue CAGR grown 23.1%, PAT CAGR grown 28.6%, average PAT margin grown 12.2%. (Data for FY ending 31 Aug 2020) • We achieved stellar performance in FY2020, with strong growth in sales quantity of 17% and added additional 21 billion pieces of capacity with production utilization of above 95%. We also saw higher operational efficiency from ongoing upgrading and productivity enhancement, and higher ASPs in line with strong market demand. 10. What do you think investors may have overlooked about Top Glove’s business? • Top Glove is committed to delivering sustainable economic performance and generating attractive returns for our shareholders. We have taken steps to ensure that our internal supply chains are sustainable, by establishing our own plants and factories which include 2 latex concentrate plants, 3 chemical factories, a glove former factory and 2 packaging material factories. • In addition, we have a nitrile latex plant and a gamma sterilisation plant in our pipeline, as we work towards establishing a comprehensive in-house supply chain. This integrated supply chain will enable us to be more competitive in the industry. • As a healthcare products manufacturer, we believe that we are well able to increase our product range in terms of medical gloves, face masks and dental dams to cater to the very strong global demand for personal protective equipment and continue to expand our capabilities in producing healthcare related products.
