The Edge, this morning: Singapore Telecommunications, Southeast Asia’s biggest phone company, posted first-quarter earnings that missed analyst estimates as currency moves and lower sales at its Australian unit cut profitability. Net income rose 3.2% to $945.3 million in the three months ended June 30 from a year earlier, the Singapore-based company known as SingTel said in a statement today. That compares with the $974.3 million average of three analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. A strong performance in Singapore, where the former government agency has about 46% of the mobile-phone market, was offset by falling sales at Australia’s Optus unit where customers canceled contracts and bought less equipment, SingTel said. Earnings growth from its Indonesian and Thai associates was undermined by declines in the countries’ currencies against the Singapore dollar, the company said. “They’ve been holding ground rather than going backwards,” Sachin Gupta, an analyst at Nomura Holdings Inc. in Singapore, said by telephone before the results. Nomura has a neutral rating on shares of the Singapore-based company. SingTel has climbed 9.7% this year up to yesterday’s close in Singapore trade, compared with a 16% gain for the city state’s Straits Times Index. The company is expanding its revenue streams amid slowing growth from its main markets in Singapore and Australia, and has announced about $899 million of acquisitions in the 12 months through June, including mobile advertiser Amobee Inc. for $321 million. Excluding one-time benefits from the sale of a unit, earnings fell 3% to $850 million, the lowest figure on that measure since the quarter ended December 2008, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. “We are embracing the changes in our industry by strengthening our telco business and establishing new growth platforms in the digital space,” Chua Sock Koong, chief executive officer, said in a statement. Revenue for the full-year will increase at “low single digit” rates while earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation will be “stable,” the company said. Sales from Singapore rose 8% to $1.67 billion, while those from Optus fell 3% in Australian dollars to A$2.24 billion ($2.9 billion). Total revenue dropped 1.6% to $4.53 billion. The earnings contribution from regional associates rose 2.4% to $483 million in the quarter, the company said. SingTel holds minority stakes in phone operators in more than 10 countries in Asia and Africa, with a total customer base of about 462 million as of June 30, making its earnings vulnerable to currency fluctuations. |

Since XD singtel unable to stay abv 3.49. Today heavier selling detected, bringing price to 3.45. Next target 3.39. Don't buy on the way down! Telcos have turned weak after the massive run up this year. Go chase under performers with strong fundamentals. |

Not necessarily so... Like I said before, shorter time frame players take smaller risks than longer time-frame players. Longer time-frame plays can yield bigger profits, but losses are correspondingly bigger too... This is because longer-time frame players as a rule also hold on to growing losses longer. Thus in this context, longer term plays are much more risky than short-term plays...

I must say that's good play... But my margins are bigger, though. Thus my frequency of trades is much less ...

Wonder how much our telcos pay for the July Euro Cup. They didnt announce the price. This year either singtel or starhub (or both?) will bid in Sep to renew EPL rights again. Or are they supposed to split the bid price? |

Sifu ipunter, there are 2 categories of singtel shares: (1) those bought any time from the open mkt (cash/CFDs/CPF/SRS), all can be bot/sold thru our usual brokers, just like any other stocks. (2) but those allotted to us thru our CPF (A, B) shares can only be sold thru Philips securities brokers. Those who want to sell these shares BUT dont want to open philips sec account will hv to go to a post office and fill up a form, by which philips sec will help sell these shares, but we hv no control over the price, as it may take a few days for our sale application to be processed. I think the process at (2) abv still applies, unless there are new changes since last year.

The cum. dividend dist. since 1994 till todate is {tot. $1.77/sh (Yr:1994-2012)+ [80%less tax (Yr:2000)] + [50%less tax (Yr:2001)]} Let's say 1,000 shares holding, the discounted px i think is $1.90/sh(right?), then the return till date is more than 100% capital gain. I would be quite reluctant to sell if given a chance.

I have sold all mine when it was @4.00, (sold it at the post office I think), but many friends are still holding till now. Anyone has any idea if they can sell without opening an investment account?
