Why ST Engineering's $1.05b order wins are still disappointing

Blame it on delivery lag.

According to DBS, order book is marginally lower at S$12.5bn, as new order wins of S$1.05bn secured in 3Q lagged behind deliveries.

The bulk of orders came from Aerospace – S$600m from 17 Boeing PTF conversion contracts and maintenance contracts from Jetstar, with the balance from Electronics division for rail electronics and satellite communications contracts.

Here's more from DBS:

The group expects to recognise revenue of S$1.5bn from the order book in 4Q13. YTD, ST Engineering has secured new order wins of about S$3.7bn.

Marine will be the brighter spot, riding on ongoing project deliveries for AHTS/OSV vessels for Swire Pacific and Hornbeck Offshore, and patrol vessels for Oman.

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.
