Manufacturing company Scintronix questioned for financial discrepancies

Inconsistencies between the company’s announced and audited financial results got SGX looking for explanations.

SGX refers to the preliminary results announced on 29 August 2011 and the audited accounts in the annual report which was also announced on 14 October 2011.

There were material discrepancies between the results for the profit and loss statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.

The company defended itself by presenting a comparison between the results and saying that there really are differences between the unaudited results and the audited financial statements despatched to shareholders with the Annual Report of the company.

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.
