Here’s more from OCBC:

Rotary Engineering delivered a weak set of 3Q results and were worse than our and the consensus estimates. 3Q revenue and profits fell by 25% and 40% YoY to S$117m and S$8m respectively, attributable to slower-than-expected progress on its Middle East projects during the month of Ramadan. On a 9-month basis, revenue and net profits formed only about 60% of our respective full-year estimates. On a positive note, gross margin was sustained at 26%, while order-book remained unchanged at S$758m (2Q: S$757m) .

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
