SingPost to shell out S$100m in services upgrade by 2016

S$45m goes to machines replacement.

According to DBS, Singpost intends to invest up to S$100m in infrastructure, services and enhancements over the next three years. About S$45m would be spent to replace its existing sorting machines to achieve greater operational efficiency. 

Here's more:

A big amount would be spent on laying down PopStation network, a new delivery mechanism to serve customers 24/7. Overall, we estimate S$40m capex in FY14F followed by S$35m in FY15F & 16F each. Despite the higher capex, the free cash flow should allow it to meet dividend commitments easily. After three years, we expect capex to scale downwards again.

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.
