China Foods Limited (0506.HK) 2007 Interim Business Review and Analysis
Wine business • Turnover of the wine business in 2007 1H reached HK$1,081 million, representing an increase of 19.9% over the same period of the previous year. • Sales volume in 2007 1H was 49,100 tonnes, 7.3% higher than that in 2006 1H. • Attributable to the increase in average selling price and the reduction of the cost of raw materials, the gross profit margin of the wine business increased by 3.1% compared with the same period of the previous year. • With the expansion of production capacity in our existing winery in 20071H, our total production capacity increased by 30,000 tonnes to 140,000 tonnes as at 30 June 2007. • The first phase construction of a new vineyard in Yantai was completed in 2007 1H. After the completion of the second phase construction, the vineyard will become a premium chateau encompassing research and development of premium wines, top-quality vine planting, promotion of oenology and vineyard resort. • We carried out a series of marketing and promotion activities, including organizing the Olympic Wine Label Competition and sponsoring a premium golf tournament in China, the 2007 Pine Valley Beijing Open. • We have also introduced Italian and Spanish sparkling wines under the Greatwall label to further enhance our product portfolio and brand image. • The Shaoxing wine business recorded sales amount of HK$11.10 million in 2007 1H, an increase of 45% over the same period of the previous year. We aim to further develop “孔乙己” and “黄中皇” into well-known brands.
Beverages business • The beverages business recorded a turnover of HK$1,570 million, increased by 21.8% compared with the same period of the previous year. Among the total sales , sparking beverages account for 83%, while still beverages account for 17%. • Due to increased investments in marketing and marginal increase in commodity costs, the operating profit decreased by 5.5% during 2007 1H compared with the same period of the previous year. • A bottler was established in Jiangxi in 2007 1H. It is expected to commence production in 2008. We are also applying to establish a bottler in Xinjiang. In addition, a can production line was put into use in the bottler in Gansu in July 2007.
Beverages business (Cont’) • We negotiated with Coca-Cola China Industries Limited (CCCI ), a subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company, a share transfer master agreement involving several bottlers. The agreement, which was announced on 6 August 2007, involves two transactions: • -The first transaction: COFCO Coca-Cola Beverages Limited (CBL), a 65%-owned subsidiary with The Coca-Cola Company owning the remaining 35%, will transfer to CCCI all of its shares in, and outstanding shareholder’s loans owed by, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, each of which holds minority equity interest in the bottlers in Chengdu, Harbin, Kunming, Taiyuan, Wuhan and all equity interest in the bottler in Jilin. CCCI will transfer to CBL all of its shares in, and outstanding shareholder’s loan owed by, its wholly-owned subsidiary, which holds majority interests in the bottlers in Qingdao and Jinan. CCCI will pay to CBL RMB50m. After completion of the transaction, CBL will no longer indirectly hold equity interests in bottlers in Chengdu, Harbin, Kunming, Taiyuan, Wuhan and Jilin, and will indirectly hold 75% equity interests in each of the bottlers in Qingdao and Jinan. The transaction is to be completed by 30 September 2007 or such other date as may be agreed by the parties. • -The second transaction: CCCI will transfer to CBL all of its shares in, and outstanding shareholder’s loan owed by, its wholly-owned subsidiary, which holds 40% equity interest in the bottler in Beijing. The consideration to be paid by CBL to CCCI is RMB 270mm. This transaction is to be completed after the expiration of the CCCI management control period, which will be no later than 10 January 2009 or such other date as may be agreed by the parties. • After the completion of the transactions, China Foods will control 10 bottlers in Tianjin, Hunan, Hainan, Gansu, Zhanjiang, Beijing, Qingdao, Jinan, Jiangxi and Xinjiang (a bottler is currently being established in Xinjiang). In addition, China Foods hold minority interests in the bottlers in Nanjing, Hangzhou, Wenzhou, Shanghai, Huizhou and Guangzhou. Our franchise with The Coca-Cola Company will cover Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Inner Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai, Ningxia, Tibet, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Hainan, Zhanjiang, Maoming and Xinjiang (which is currently a distributor’s franchise territory). • The completion of the transactions will give the CBL group a contiguous bloc of territory covering 118 million people, and enable our bottlers to better share transportation, storage and distribution channels and other resources, which will be beneficial to the beverage business over the longer term.
Consumer-pack edible oil business • The consumer-pack edible oil business recorded a turnover of HK$1,516 million, an increase of 91.2% over the same period of the previous year. If the sales of associate companies were included for 2006 1H, the increase would be 19%. • Due to significant pressure from rising raw materials cost, the consumer-pack edible oil business recorded loss during the period under review. • In order to improve the brand image, we introduced new visual identities for the “Fortune” and “福臨門”in 2007. • Product mix is gradually being adjusted. Sales volume of the first-tier products currently counts for 27% of the total sales volume, compared with 21% of the same period of previous year. This will help improve profitability over the longer term. • In order to further reduce costs, we have secured a new supplier in southwest China.
Confectionery business • The confectionery business recorded a turnover of HK$128 million in 2007 1H, representing a decrease of 15.4% from the same period of the previous year. The decline is due to the tightening of credit policies towards distributors by controlling sales on credit. • Due to the increase in average selling price and cost reduction, the gross profit margin improved from 42.4% in 2006 1H to 45.9% in 2007 1H. • Due to the turnover decrease, loss incurred during the period under review.
