Why ST Engineering's $1.05b order wins are still disappointing

Blame it on delivery lag.

According to DBS, order book is marginally lower at S$12.5bn, as new order wins of S$1.05bn secured in 3Q lagged behind deliveries.

The bulk of orders came from Aerospace – S$600m from 17 Boeing PTF conversion contracts and maintenance contracts from Jetstar, with the balance from Electronics division for rail electronics and satellite communications contracts.

Here's more from DBS:

The group expects to recognise revenue of S$1.5bn from the order book in 4Q13. YTD, ST Engineering has secured new order wins of about S$3.7bn.

Marine will be the brighter spot, riding on ongoing project deliveries for AHTS/OSV vessels for Swire Pacific and Hornbeck Offshore, and patrol vessels for Oman.

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.
