Venture Corp to reap yields as USD gains strength

Around 90% of its revenue are denominated in USD.

The recent spate of events affecting the global economy, including Brexit and Trump win, has certainly cast clouds on high-tech design and manufacture firm Venture Corp. But the recent spike in US dollar strenght has proven to be beneficial to the firm according to OCBC Investment Research.

OCBC said Venture will surely benefit from the said spike, as around 90% of its revenue is denominated in USD.

"This could further boost its sales should strength in the USD sustain," the research firm noted.

More so, Venture will receive additional boost due to the weakening of Malaysian Ringgit. OCBC argues that this is significant as around 60% of its manufacturing operations are done in Malaysia.

"Hence, we believe if the weakness of MYR against SGD persists, VMS may benefit from lower operating expenses, and could potentially see some lift in earnings as a result," OCBC explained.

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.
