CSE Global settles dispute with subsidiary’s customer for US$8m

The settlement is expected to adversely impact its FY2024 earnings.

CSE Global has settled arbitration proceedings with a customer of its unit, Hankin. The customer had initiated arbitration proceedings in the United States on 3 September, citing losses resulting from delays in Hankin’s performance of its contracted works.

Hankin was hired by the customer to provide engineering, procurement, and installation services for a United States construction project, where the customer was the general contractor.

Hankin said that the delays were predominantly caused by supply chain disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the customer’s instructions to vary the approved existing design plan.

On 8 September, the parties concluded a US$8m settlement, subject to the execution of a written Settlement Agreement and Release by the parties.

The settlement is expected to have a material adverse impact on the company for FY2024.

The company advises shareholders and potential investors to exercise caution when dealing and trading in the company's shares and to consult their advisers if they are in doubt of the appropriate actions to take.

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.
