Hi all, Chinese government is considering a trade barrier for foreign infant formula. Now they are working on the wine barrier for French Wine products and Chemical products from Germany, for the next stage, it's turn to NZ milk products. Already gave signals on Chinese National TV Channel.
Because the non-Chinese currencies depreciated, it may cause some trade wars to against "dumping" among the big economy countries. Such as current Euro anti-dump plan against Chinese solar products.
I am more happy to see how the marketing promotion is going on after A2 infant products arrivals in Shang Hai. Need to two months to figure out.

It's all up from here.

ATM has provided guidance that they are “on track to achieve FY13 EBITDA of $11.2M before intercompany charges”. We also know that ATM have stated publically that they anticipate FY16 revenues “to be at about $280M”. This is around 3 times the anticipated FY13 revenues and if you do the math represents average forward revenue growth of about 45% per annum over the next 4 years.
This is recent but not new news, but how must we assess top to bottom line margins.
ATM’s average margin over the last two years has been 6.5% and we should anticipate this to improve further as the company grows and gains further efficiencies. A present margin of 6.5% is not bad with in a low margin industry, Fonterra’s HY13 margin was only 4.9%.
ATM operate in a global market, have a value added product above their competitors, yet contract a good percentage of their production and have entered into difficult to assess joint ventures.
Have any posters a studied expectation of forward ATM margins ?

Check out the Australian revenue growth curve within this presentation. If ATM achieve similar growth in their other markets this could all just take-off.
I’m also encouraged by the 150% price premium which is beginning to satisfy some of my assumptions on what top to bottom line profit margins ATM will ultimately achieve. ie: what the A2 marketing premium is worth over and above their non A2 competitors.
