| Steady Revenue Growth plus Double-digit Profit Growth as Momentum Continues |
HONG KONG, Nov 7, 2019 - (ACN Newswire) - Nissin Foods Company Limited (the "Company", and together with its subsidiaries, the "Group"; Stock code: 1475) today announced its 2019 third quarter financial information for the nine months ended 30 September 2019 ("the Reporting Period").
Revenue of the Group amounted to HK$2,348.1 million, representing a year-on-year (YoY) increase of 3.2% from HK$2,274.8 million. Gross profit increased by 10.7% YoY to HK$770.1 million (2018: HK$695.5 million), with gross profit margin rising to 32.8% (2018: 30.6%), mainly attributable to the stable raw material costs and better control of fixed costs. Profit attributable to owners of the Company was HK$211.2 million, representing a 27.1% jump YoY from HK$166.2 million.
For the Hong Kong operations, revenue declined by a slight 2.2% YoY to HK$960.2 million (2018: HK$981.6 million) during the Reporting Period, mainly affected by the change in product portfolio of the MC Marketing & Sales (Hong Kong) Limited distribution business, yet partly offset by the subsequent growth in sales of instant noodles and other products. As for the PRC operations, revenue recorded a significant increase by 7.3% YoY (in local currency: 12.5%) from HK$1,293.2 million to HK$1,388.0 million, despite the effects of foreign exchange depreciation of the Renminbi compared to the Hong Kong Dollar this year.
Looking ahead, the Group remains cautiously optimistic about the Hong Kong operation and has actively paved the way for potentially high growth of its business in the PRC market over the long term. In particular, the investment announced in July earmarking about RMB180 million for building a new material production plant in Zhuhai, the PRC, is expected to facilitate the Group's business growth by reducing production costs and benefitting from greater synergies with the current production facilities. Besides, with the target completion of the new Bar Ramen production line upgrade at the Hong Kong factory in this year, the Group would possess a even stronger capacity enabling this authentic product to enter the burgeoning PRC market. Through these efforts, the Group can further enlarge its market share in the region, deliver considerable growth, and, ultimately, bring sustainable returns to shareholders.
