Jadason Enterprises earnings fall 19% to $1.03m in Q3

Its lacklustre quarter was driven by shortage of workers and parts.

Machine distribution company Jadason Enterprises' Q3 earnings fell by 19% YoY to $1.03m as its total workforce stagnated at 600 since last year.

According to Jarick Seet of RHB Research, Jadason Enterprise’s underperformance is also driven by lack of supply and delay in the delivery of high-precision parts as it moves to upgrade its machines.

Seet believes that Jadason is on its way to full recovery as it will be able to hire additional manpower by February 2018 after the Lunar New Year.

Additionally, Seet forecasts a stronger 4Q for the machine distributing company due to the growth in customers for its mobile segment and the launch of its mobile product in the market.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
