Susceptibility of profitability margins to volatility in raw material prices and forex fluctuation
The group's profitability margins are susceptible to volatility in raw material prices, which are derived from petroleum-based products and are inherently volatile. Any adverse movement in raw material prices could significantly impact the group's profitability. Furthermore, the group faces foreign exchange fluctuation risk, as approximately 15% to 20% of its revenue is generated through exports. However, this risk is partially mitigated by the group's foreign currency imports, which provide a natural hedge to some extent.
