Sembcorp Marine's profit predicted to soar 29% to $146m

Revenue will also surge 41%.

According to Maybank Kim Eng, Sembcorp Marine (SMM) will report 1Q13 results on 3 May 2013 after trading hours. Maybank Kim Eng estimates a 29% YoY rise in PATMI to SGD146m, on the back of 41% YoY increase in revenue to SGD1.33b. 

The report also said that the higher revenue expectation is based on the assumption that 2 semisub units would have achieved initial recognition milestone.

"Note that revenue recognition is dependent on the stage of job progress and is lumpy from quarter to quarter. SMM is our preferred rigbuilder with its direct exposure to the offshore sector and higher TP upside potentia," Maybank said.

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.
