Keppel T&T profit down 30% to $55.5m in FY12

Weaker other income ravaged its earnings.

In a release, Keppel T&T announced that its net profit attributable to shareholders for FY12 was $55.5m, down 30% from $79.4m the previous year.

Revenue increased 16% to $137.5m from $118.1m, while earnings per share decreased to 10.0 cents per share from 14.4 cents per share. Meanwhile, net asset value per ordinary share increased 9% to 77.0 cents per share.

Keppel T&T said its other income decreased due mainly to the absence of gain on disposals of investments, lower dilution gain in an associated company and sundry income. During the corresponding period of 2011, other income comprised largely a one-time gain on disposals of Wuhu Annto and non-core businesses.

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.
