Keppel T&T's margins are likely to stay depressed ahead of the opening of the new facilities in FY14-15

Keppel T&T margin slump could extend till FY14-15

Logistic segment margin looking especially weak.

According to CIMB's forecasts, Keppel T&T's margins "are likely to stay depressed ahead of the opening of the new facilities in FY14-15 as staff and building costs are incurred before any operating earnings can be generated."

"We believe the logistics segment’s margins will remain depressed for a longer period of time as the four new warehouses are of a larger scale and will take longer to build," it added.

But the data centre segment offers some relief; most of the staff for the Keppel Datahub 2 have already been hired and margins are likely to improve in 1H14 as the new facility starts generating income, according to CIMB.

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.
