On May 6, Yue Yuen warned investors that it saw a “significant downturn” in the first quarter ended March 31 although it didn’t provide any projections. The Hong Kong-based company, which manufactures in China, Vietnam and Indonesia, attributed deteriorating results to rising input costs, relocation and allocation of production capacity, and a one-off surge in profits in the year earlier quarter.
