The address of the Company's registered office is Cricket Square, Hutchins Drive, P.O. Box 2681, Grand Cayman KY1-1111, Cayman Islands.

The immediate and ultimate holding companies of the Company were KAL SG Limited and KYL SG Limited and the ultimate controlling parties of the Group were Mr. Toe Tiong Hock and Ms. Wong Yet Lian until 20 December 2019. On 20 December 2019, Luxuriant East Limited, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, became the immediate and ultimate holding company of the Company and the ultimate controlling party of the Group was changed to Mr. Li Thet.

The Company's shares were listed on the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited on 16 July 2018.

The condensed consolidated interim financial information is presented in Singapore Dollar ("S$") unless otherwise stated.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated interim financial information for the six months ended 30 June 2020 is prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". The condensed consolidated interim financial information have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs") issued by International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). The condensed consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information

4. ESTIMATES AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

  1. Estimates
    The preparation of interim financial information requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
    In preparing this condensed consolidated interim financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019.
  2. Financial risk management
    1. Financial risk factors
      The Group's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, cash flow and fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
      The condensed consolidated interim financial information do not include financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2019.
      There have been no changes in the risk management policies since year end.
    2. Liquidity risk
      There was no material change in the contractual undiscounted cash flows for financial liabilities.
    3. Fair value estimation
      The carrying values of the Group's current financial assets, including trade receivables, deposits, other receivables, pledged bank deposits, short-term deposits and cash and cash equivalents, and the Group's current financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, amounts due to director and bank borrowings approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
      At 30 June 2020 and 31 December 2019, the Group did not have any financial instruments carried at fair value.
      The carrying values less impairment provision of trade and other receivables and payables are a reasonable approximation of their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the Group for similar financial instruments.

Management Discussion and Analysis

The board (the "Board") of directors (the "Directors") of FSM Holdings Limited (the "Company") present the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Group") for the six months ended 30 June 2020.

BUSINESS REVIEW

The Group is a sheet metal fabricator with a focus on precision engineering and a precision machining service provider based in Singapore. Sheet metal fabrication is the use of sheet metal to produce structures and products for various applications, whereas precision engineering requires attention to detail and knowledge for careful application of measurements, control and fabrication methods which supports the production of complex components in various industries including semiconductor manufacturing, machinery and machine tools manufacturing and printing application. During the six months ended 30 June 2020, all of the Group's revenue was derived from (i) sale of sheet metal products; and (ii) provision of precision machining services.

The Group's customers are contract manufacturers and brand owners which include subsidiaries of several established multi-national companies. The Group's customers would integrate and assemble sheet metal products provided by the Group into machineries used for various applications as stated above.

In the first half of 2020, the global economy was deeply dampened by the outbreak of the novel coronavirus covid-19 (the "COVID-19") pandemic starting from January 2020. Different levels of lockdown and quarantine measures around the world to contain the COVID-19 pandemic has directly led to cliff-edge fall in economies, disruptive impact on supply chains on various industries and challenges to individual and businesses in many countries.

Affected by the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia, our manufacturing plant in Malaysia was temporarily closed from 18 March to 19 April 2020, resumed production operation at level up to 50% of total labor force from 20 April to 28 April 2020 and returned to full production work force restoring to normal levels of operation after 28 April 2020. Meanwhile, our Singapore operations was classified as an essential service and remained in operation during the circuit breaker enforced by the Singapore Government from 7 April to 1 June 2020.

During the period when safe distancing measures and movement control orders were enforced in Singapore and Malaysia, the Group made appropriate adjustments to fully utilize production capacities available at the Group's Singapore and Malaysia manufacturing plants in order to keep the disruptions to the minimum.

For the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Group recorded total revenue of approximately S$4.34 million, representing a decrease of approximately S$0.63 million or 12.76%, from approximately S$4.97 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019. The decrease was mainly attributable to requests by our customers to postpone the deliveries of products ordered as a result of the adverse impact and uncertainties brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and the enforcement of safe distancing measures and movement control orders in Singapore and Malaysia in the first half of 2020.

BUSINESS PROSPECTS

The International Monetary Fund ("IMF") had revised the global year 2020 growth projections downwards from -3.0% to -4.9% during their June 2020 review1. For the second half of 2020, the threat of another wave of infection of the COVID-19 and the continued fallout from the worsening US-China tension will remain major concerns. The external environment in the second half of 2020 is expected to be more uncertain and the market sentiment could be more pessimistic resulting from further downward pressure on the economy of Singapore. Gross domestic product of Singapore in the second quarter of 2020 declined by an annualized quarter-on-quarter and seasonally- adjusted rate of 42.9% from the first quarter of 20202 and contracted by 3.3% as compared with the second quarter of 20193.

During the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Group's revenue decreased by approximately S$0.63 million or 12.76% compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was mainly attributable to requests by our customers to postpone the deliveries of products ordered as a result of the adverse impact and uncertainties brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and the enforcement of safe distancing measures and movement control orders in Singapore and Malaysia in the first half of 2020.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

During the six months ended 30 June 2020, the Group's gross profit decreased by approximately S$1.09 million from approximately S$1.55 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately S$0.46 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. The Group's gross profit margin decreased from approximately 31.09% for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately 10.61% for the six months ended 30 June 2020. Such decrease was mainly due to (a) the adverse impact and uncertainties brought by the COVID-19 pandemic and the enforcement of safe distancing measures and movement control orders in Singapore and Malaysia resulting in (i) the decline in revenue due to requests by our customers to postpone the deliveries of products ordered; and (ii) downward pressure on the gross profit margin of our products in the first half of 2020; (b) the relatively high fixed cost base with recurring manufacturing costs such as depreciation and staff costs despite lower levels of sales and production.

Other income

The Group's other income increased by approximately S$0.31 million from approximately S$0.03 million for the six months ended 30 June 2019 to approximately S$0.34 million for the six months ended 30 June 2020. Such increase was mainly due to the government grant in relation to the employment related subsidies provided by the Governments of Singapore and Malaysia to help businesses and individuals adapt and build resilience amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Management Discussion and Analysis

Foreign Exchange Risk

Majority of the Group's business operations were conducted in Singapore and Malaysia. The sales of the Group are denominated in USD and SGD. The purchases of the Group are denominated in SGD, USD and MYR. The functional currency of the Group is SGD. As at 30 June 2020, the Group retained part of the proceeds from the Listing in HKD and USD. The Group will therefore be subject to fluctuation in foreign exchange rates.

Management closely monitors foreign currency exchange exposure and will take measures to minimise the currency translation risk. The Group manages its foreign exchange risk by performing regular reviews of the Group's net foreign exchange exposure. The Group did not engage in any derivatives agreement and did not commit to any financial instruments to hedge its foreign exchange exposure during the period.

Interim Dividend

The Board resolved not to declare payment of any interim dividend for the six months ended 30 June 2020 (six months ended 30 June 2019: Nil).
