Vard warns shareholders of negative earnings in Q3

Blame it on cost overruns in some projects.

In a profit guidance issued last night, Vard Holdings announced that it expects a marginally negative EBITDA result for 3Q14.

Though the overall performance of its European shipyards was stable, Vard revised its estimates because some projects in its European order book incurred cost overruns. 

Separately, regarding the tax claim received from authorities in Brazil and announced on 5 Aug 2014, Vard clarified that following further assessment of its legal position, it intends not to make any provisions for the tax claim in its financial accounts.

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.
