SATS’ TFK poised for earnings boost as visitor arrivals improve

Visitors to Japan improved by 41% in November.

Tourists are the bread and butter of SATS’ subsidiary in Japan, as Chinese visitors surge in the East Asian country.

According to analysts from UOB Kay Hian, this increased volume will flow through to a higher number of meals, leading to boosted profits.

“In addition, the commencement of the Delta Airlines catering contract in September will lead to improved profitability,” UOB Kay Hian said.

Meanwhile, TFK’s earnings could receive more momentum as a new bullet train linking Tokyo to Hokkaido opens in March this year, boosting visitor arrivals at Narita and Haneda airports.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
