SIA Engineering's profits up a measly 0.4% to S$270m

But revenues decreased 2%.

According to OCBC Investment Research, SIA Engineering Company's PATMI was up 0.4% to S$270m. Meanwhile, its operating profit fell 1.2% to S$128m. Share of profits from associated and JV companies increased by 1.5% to S$159m, representing a contribution of 52.0% of the group's pre-tax profits.

Here's more:

(SIAEC) FY13 results were in line with ours and the street's expectations. Revenue decreased by 2.0% to S$1.15b, chiefly due to lower fleet management and project revenue.

Basic EPS of 24.51 S cents formed 98% of ours and the street's FY13 estimates. The board is recommending a final ordinary dividend of 15.0 S cents, which will bring total FY13 dividends to 22.0 S cents per share.

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.
