Dairy Farm milking its Singapore cash cows

The company achieved 12% sales CAGR, higher than peers' average of 8%.

According to CIMB, developments in the new markets will be complemented by mature cash generating operations in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Here's more from CIMB:

Riding on ASEAN growth Dairy Farm achieved 12% sales CAGR during 2008-11, higher than peers‟ average of 8%. With accelerating income growth, rapid urbanisation and room to grow for the modern format, its ASEAN markets provide the foundation for the group‟s next phase of growth.

In particular, Indonesia offers enormous potential – it is the largest retail market for Dairy Farm, has a very high proportion of traditional stores and favourable population demographics. Moreover, successful penetration into the new markets (Vietnam, Brunei, the Philippines and Cambodia) would secure the group‟s growth beyond this decade.We expect Dairy Farm to hit 13% sales CAGR in FY11-14.

Uncanny ability to outperform
Dairy Farm has outperformed the FSSTI in every market cycle duringthe past decade. It has not shown any earnings decline over the last 10 years. Among others, this resiliencehas been underpinned by its defensive business model, market leadership and phenomenal ROE track record.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
