12 Dry Freight Container Industry Dynamics Dry Freight Container demand driven by trade / export volumes, not freight rates Traditionally, demand is seasonal in line with the trade pattern - Q2 - Q3 are peak seasons but now, demand seasonality reduced substantially with orders distributed more evenly in the year Materials cost is the major determinant of container price use cost-plus pricing model to set selling price Corten steel, a high-grade hot rolled steel product, accounts for 55% of total dry freight container production costs in 1H2011 Size of current container fleet worldwide as at 31 December 2010 is estimated to be 29 million TEUs with an average age of over 8 years A dry freight container is built for use for up to 15 years but major refurbishment is required in year 9 or 10, which costs over US$1,000 for a 20-ft container The replacement rate is normally about 5% to 7% p.a. of the total container fleet, depending on market conditions Current replacement rates are exceptionally low due to container shortage 12

13 Specialised Container Industry Dynamics Specialised container has higher entry barrier and is less competitive Demand for higher value-added specialised containers is less seasonal and cyclical than dry freight container demand Specialised containers include tank, refrigerated, 53 US Domestic, open top and other higher profit margin non-dry freight containers Refrigerated Container Tank Container 53 US Domestic Container Open-side Container 13

14 Container Prices vs. Steel Prices 1H2011 ASP of 20ft dry freight container increased to US$2,760, 28.1% and 14.9% higher than 1H2010 s US$2,155 full year 2010 s US$2,403 Higher ASP due to good demand for new containers and increased raw material (especially Corten steel) and labour costs ASP US$ 3,000 2,500 2,000 1, ft. Dry Freight Container 1 Price (ASP 2 ) vs. Average Steel Cost Per Ton Steel Cost/ Ton US$ , Year H H H ASP Avg. Steel Cost Note: 1. one 20 container normally requires 1.8 tons (including wastage) of steel 2. ASP stands for average selling price of Singamas 14

15 Container Shipping Fleet Projections In normal circumstances, the box to TEU slot ratio is 2x That is, for every one new shipping slot, approximately two TEU of new containers would be required Shipping capacity estimates to grow steadily from million TEUs as at 31 December 2010 to million TEUs by end of 2014 (representing a compound annual growth rate of 9.1% from ) Shipping Capacity (in mil of TEU) New Shipping Slots (in mil of TEU) Rise p.a. 9.2% 8.5% 8.7% 10.2% 3.3% Cellular Fleet as at 31 December New Shipping Slots Note: Based on order book as at 1 August 2011 and assuming no ships are deleted after that date (other than those planned). Forecast figures take into account delivery deferrals and slippage. Expected fleet size after provision for future scrappings and delivery slippage is based on the following assumptions: i) Slippage: 6 ships for 15,000 TEUs planned for delivery in 2011 are assumed to be delayed to ; and ii) Scrappings and de-ceilings are estimated to reach 85,000 TEUs in 2011 and 100,000 TEUs per year in Source: AXS-Alphaliner (published at www1.axsmarine.com) is a worldwide reference in liner shipping intelligence. 15

16 Favourable industry fundamentals Benefits to the box manufacturers Annual production capacity better managed by the container manufacturers and less competition have resulted in: Higher ASP Better pricing power by the container manufacturers pushing up overall selling prices, especially for dry freight containers Increasing operating margins Due to the better pricing power, Singamas operating margins further increased from 3-5% historically and 8.9% in 2010 to 14.4% in 1H2011 Higher capacity utilisation rate 93% capacity utilisation for 1H2011 vs. average of 57% from 2003 to 2009 and 85% in 2010 Improving demand and higher pricing power would render higher ASP P as well as higher margin for Singamas 16

17 World's second largest container manufacturer Singamas is now the world s second-largest container manufacturer, with a market share of 23% in 2010 Singamas and CIMC combined accounts for nearly 3/4 of the global market The market is expected to remain as an oligopoly as Singamas has the competitive strengths to preserve a number of entry barriers Entry barrier Singamas competitive positioning 1 Production network and services Production network across the coastal regions Proximity to ports 11 factories across the coastal region in PRC with multi location delivery capabilities 2 A restricted business in PRC Extremely difficult for obtaining new licenses Incumbent with well established facilities, strong marketing network and customer relationship 3 Higher land prices in coastal regions Cost has risen two- or threefold in the last decade Difficult to find large area in coastal areas Most of its production facilities were established or acquired in the 1990s and early 2000s and are now under continuous improvement and upgrading 17

18 Diversifying product mix to protect income stability To further diversify its businesses as well as providing a buffer against the volatile market for dry freight containers, which is trade driven, Singamas is exploring higher-margin specialised containers with more stable demand Singamas is targeting sales of specialised containers to account for 40% to 50% of its total revenue over the next three to five years after the market returns to normal in around 2013 It is expected that dry freight container would be the main growth driver up to 2012 Revenue breakdown for dry freight and specialised containers in the period under review was 72% and 28% respectively Total revenue % breakdown Manufacturing volume % breakdown Manufacturing revenue % breakdown (%) (%) (%) H2010 1H H2010 1H H2010 1H2011 Containers manufacturing Logistics Dry Freight Specialised Containers Dry Freight Specialised Containers 18

19 Sustainable business along the industry cycle Singamas has weathered various ups and downs along the industry cycle yet still maintained its leading position In the recent down-cycle from mid-2008 to end of 2009, Singamas quickly returned to profitability in 2010 Further improvements in both selling prices and margins in 1H2011 Singamas has a healthy financial position to support future business growth Production output and sales volume TEUs ( 000) H2010 1H2011 Production Sales EBITDA and margin % % % % % % (40) (33) H2010 1H2011 (90) EBITDA (US$ m) EBITDA Margin (%) 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% -5% -10% -15% -20% -25% -30% 19

20 Industry Outlook Recovery of global export trading activities especially from the PRC Container shipping capacity to increase by approximately 34% over the next few years Significant reduction in order seasonality Expects replacement rate to resume to at least normal level of 5-7% in the coming year Continuing Good Demand for New Containers Raw materials and labour costs to be stable 20
