KELIVE Research
Stamford Tyres - Net profit for the six months ended Oct 31 fell 13.7 per cent to $5.6million on increased pressure from material costs, even as total revenue rose 15.3 per cent to $138.3 million. Singapore's biggest distributor and retailer of tyres and alloy wheels recorded bigger sales volume, thanks to continued organic growth in major brands such as Falken and Continental, and its earthmover tyres. Its proprietary brands like Sumo Firenza tyres and SSW wheels also grew. But it was weighed down by manufacturers' higher tyre prices, due to rising raw material costs. Stamford also operates a wheel manufacturing plant in Thailand and was affected by increasing aluminium ingot prices. Group president Wee Kok Wah explained that the company had not been able to immediately pass on thesecost hikes to consumers but added that the situation has since improved.

It sells a complete range of tyre wheels with supporting services to tyre and wheel distributors and retailers in more than 30 countries in Asia Pacific, Africa and Latin America.
It is taking an increasing share of global vehicle sales, and is the only major market expected to see strong growth over the next few years. The Singapore market remains the principal driving force for Stamford Tyres' robust performance. The market size for auto parts is estimated to reach $1b by 2008. China will be the other growth engine with a vehicle population CAGR of 17% from 2002 to 2012.
In line with its strategy to develop proprietary brands and to further expand its product portfolio, the Group opened its first wheel plant in Sep 04. Due to the increasing product popularity and market demand, the company committed $15m for a second wheel plant to commence operations in 2007.
Stamford Tyres is most vulnerable to an increase in global rubber prices, and prices of aluminium, a major raw material in wheel manufacturing. The recent sharp rise in the aluminium price, which started in Jan 06 and peaked in May 06, will increase the cost of sales for Stamford Tyres' light alloy wheel production.
