RESPONDING TO TWIN CHALLENGES –OUR STRATEGIC SHIFT

Faced two major challenges since end of FY2018 – cessation of relationship with a major supplier, Texas Instruments (“TI”) and COVID-19.

TI had accounted for over 50% of Serial System’s revenue before cessation.

COVID-19 forced all enterprises to re-think their value proposition and cost structures.

Pandemic came amid the ‘tech war’ which affected availability of semiconductors in China.

On 21 December 2020 we announced three strategies to respond to the challenges.

THREE STRATEGIES FOR RECOVERY

GROWTH POST COVID-19

Page 10: ANALYST & INVESTOR PRESENTATION

10

10Your Integral Component to Success

Implications of ‘Tech War’ & Chip Shortage

• China continues to build up technology & semiconductor manufacturing capabilities

• Even as China promotes local foundries, its industries still need foreign-made semiconductors; hence, ‘tech war’

plays out to Serial System’s advantage in view of its track record

Expanded Product Portfolio

• Deepen penetration in 5G infrastructure, EVs and data centres

• Continue to expand product portfolio in these technologies by working closely with suppliers as well as

customers

New Supplier Relationships

• Signed on new distributorships directly or formed joint venture partnerships with top semiconductor

companies in the world

STRATEGY #1 - EXPAND PRODUCT PORTFOLIO & SUPPLIER RELATIONSHIPS

Page 11: ANALYST & INVESTOR PRESENTATION

11

11Your Integral Component to Success

Catalyst to Improve Internal Efficiencies

Changing workflow practices, reduction of travel-related expenses

• Implemented work-from-home measures and rotating shifts in offices

• Adopted teleconferencing, which significantly reduced travel and accommodation costs

Reduced office/warehouse footprint (-20%) and manpower (-30%)

Will build on early fruits of productivity gains to improve efficiencies even further

GPM improved in 1Q2021

STRATEGY #2 – RESPONSE TO COVID-19

Revenue of US$731.4M in FY2020, a decrease of 8% from US$791.6M in FY2019• Revenue for 2H2020 was 33% higher than 1H2020• Improvement in 2H2020 was due to recovery in business activities, particularly in China where economy has rebounded.• Turnover for electronic components distribution business is recovering from the termination of supplier relationship with

Texas Instruments (“TI”).• Excluding impact due to TI termination, turnover for the segment increased by 2%, despite the impact from COVID-19. • Consumer products distribution business sales increased 44% amid higher demand for tele-conferencing and computer

accessories due to movement control order imposed by the Malaysian government.• Turnover for other businesses more than doubled to US$9.6 million (FY2019: US$4.7 million), mainly due to contribution

from two Singapore subsidiaries in the distribution and trading of global fast-moving consumer goods.

Gross profit margin declined to 6.3% in FY2020• Mainly due to lower margins achieved by all business divisions as a result of keen market competition in a challenging

environment as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net profit of US$0.3M in FY2020 compared to NPAT of US$8.0M in FY2019

• Net profit of US$4.8M in 2H2020 reversed net loss of US$4.5 million in 1H2020.
