ST Engineering H2 profit rises 19.6% to S$365.7 million
The group&rsquo s revenue rises 9.9% to S$5.8 billion from S$5.2 billion
 
ST ENGINEERING : S63 +3.75%on Thursday (Feb 27) reported a net profit of S$365.7 million for the second half ended Dec 31, up 19.6 per cent from S$305.9 million in the previous corresponding period
 
The defence and engineering group&rsquo s revenue rose 9.9 per cent to S$5.8 billion from S$5.2 billion. This was mainly driven by the defence and public security, as well as commercial aerospace segments.
 
Defence and public security revenue grew 20 per cent to S$2.6 billion from S$2.1 billion, on the back of higher contributions from all sub-segments. Commercial aerospace revenue rose 5 per cent to S$2.2 billion from S$2.1 billion. Meanwhile, revenue from the urban solutions and satellite communications (satcom) business was flat at S$1.04 billion, mainly due to margin mix.
 
Group earnings before interest and tax grew 17.7 per cent to S$553.5 million from S$470.5 million, driven by the defence and public security, as well as commercial aerospace segments. This was partially offset by the urban solutions and satcom segment.
 
ST Engineering&rsquo s board proposed a final dividend of S$0.05 per share, up from S$0.04 per share in the previous year. The dividend will be paid on May 15, following the record date of Apr 30. This brings the group&rsquo s dividend for the full year to S$0.17 per share, slightly higher than S$0.16 per share in FY2023.
 
For the full year, net profit rose 19.7 per cent to S$702.3 million from S$586.5 million as revenue climbed 11.6 per cent to S$11.3 billion from S$10.1 billion, the highest recorded. Earnings per share rose 19.7 per cent to S$0.2253 from S$0.1882 in FY2023. Net asset value per share was S$0.8574 as at end-December, slightly higher than S$0.7896 as at end-2023.
 
Group president and chief executive officer Vincent Chong said that the strong results in 2024 came &ldquo despite an uncertain and challenging environment&rdquo . He added: &ldquo We have a robust order book and a competitive market position which will underpin our continuing revenue growth and performance.&rdquo
 
As at end-2024, ST Engineering&rsquo s order book stood at S$28.5 billion. The group expects to deliver about S$8.8 billion from its order book in 2025.
 
Transcore has secured its first tolling solution contract in South-east Asia, but ST Engineering said that it is not at liberty to discuss contractual details at this point. &ldquo We have been talking about our cross-selling and synergies from this very big acquisition. We are heartened that this tolling contract win is extensive. It will cover numerous expressways and lanes,&rdquo said Cedric Foo, group chief financial officer of ST Engineering.
 
The tariff situation in the US is currently unclear, but ST Engineering sources mainly from suppliers in the US for its commercial aerospace business there. But these suppliers may be affected by the supply chain coming from outside the US, with the eventual situation subject to the final tariff policy.
 
ST Engineering is still facing near-term shortages in aircraft in converting passenger-to-freighter (P2F) work. The company is reallocating capacity and resources to tap stronger airframe maintenance, repair and overhaul work.
 
The Airbus A330, A321 and A320 P2F programmes are now an integral part of the business and have matured and stabilised over the years. Now with higher total commercial aerospace revenue compared to pre-Covid levels, ST Engineering will no longer single out P2F targets. &ldquo That said, it remains a valuable contributor to the segment&rsquo s revenue and profitability,&rdquo added Chong.

Trump U-turn on NYC&rsquo s congestion pricing programme could dampen ST Engineering sentiment, but limited impact expected
The group&rsquo s subsidiary in the US, TransCore, runs the contract
 
THE Trump administration reversed federal approval for New York City&rsquo s congestion pricing programme on Feb 19. Even though ST Engineering&rsquo s subsidiary in the US, TransCore, runs the contract, analysts are forecasting just a slight dampening of investor sentiment with minimal direct impact on the stock.
 
DBS Group Research noted that TransCore has already completed the engineering, procurement and construction phase of its contract with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA).
 
Hence, it does not anticipate a significant financial impact on the technology and engineering group, even though this development &ldquo could slightly dampen investor sentiment&rdquo towards the group.
 
The research house added that despite the operations and maintenance portion accounting for 60 to 70 per cent of the total contract value, it represents only 2 to 3 per cent of revenue for the urban solutions and services segment, and constitutes less than 1 per cent of the group&rsquo s revenue.
 
Lorraine Tan, director of equity research at Morningstar, similarly expects minimal direct impact on ST Engineering, explaining that the group has already been paid for the contract to set up the system.
 
In 2021, ST Engineering announced that it was buying TransCore. The US transportation company had been contracted to deliver a congestion pricing project that will levy a fee on drivers entering the busiest parts of Manhattan, New York &ndash the first such project in the US.
 
In the group&rsquo s earnings call for the third quarter last November, chief financial officer Cedric Foo disclosed that TransCore was awarded an order worth US$1.7 billion to develop and maintain the back office system, as well as operate customer service centres for various toll highways and bridge agencies in New Jersey.
 
However, ST Engineering did not include this order win in its latest order book as the incumbent vendor had lodged a protest against the award.
 
DBS Group Research said: &ldquo The street has likely not priced in significant new congestion pricing contract wins for TransCore in the US, given the lack of visibility and the political backlash leading up to the programme&rsquo s launch.&rdquo
 
New York City&rsquo s congestion pricing programme began operating just last month. The toll began on Jan 5, with drivers entering parts of Manhattan charged US$9 during peak hours.
 
The West Side Highway and the Franklin D Roosevelt East River Drive are exempt from the charge, but motorists will pay the fee if they leave those highways and enter the district south of 60th Street.
 
The programme is expected to raise US$15 billion to the MTA, the agency that runs New York City&rsquo s century-old subway and commuter-rail lines, for desperately needed upgrades. Such upgrades include modernising subway signals from the 1930s and making more stations accessible.
 
Following the federal government&rsquo s decision on Feb 19, the MTA filed a lawsuit on the same day, claiming that efforts to halt the programme are illegal and sought a judicial order to declare them &ldquo null and void&rdquo , Bloomberg reported.
 
New York Governor Kathy Hochul affirmed that the congestion pricing programme remains in place during the legal proceedings.
 
Analysts pointed out that the federal revocation introduces uncertainty regarding the future of congestion pricing initiatives, possibly deterring other municipalities from rolling out similar systems.
 
Paul Chew, head of research at brokerage Phillip Securities, said: &ldquo Subject to legal challenges, any cancellation will be negative in the near term in terms of pursuing new congestion pricing projects in the US.&rdquo
 
However, he affirmed that &ldquo Transcore still captures operations and maintenance revenue from this project, albeit a small contribution&rdquo .
 
DBS Group Research further pointed out that the likelihood of the Trump administration terminating the programme remains unclear, citing &ldquo little legal precedent for the federal government unilaterally revoking approval for a programme of this scale&rdquo .
 
It added that legal proceedings will be critical in determining the programme&rsquo s long-term viability, as well as the prospects for similar initiatives in other US cities.

Halting New York City' s congestion pricing program could have significant effects on smart city initiatives, both in NYC and globally. Here&rsquo s how:

1. Slower Adoption of Smart Traffic Management



Smart cities rely on congestion pricing to manage traffic flow, reduce emissions, and improve public transportation. If NYC&rsquo s program is blocked, other cities considering similar policies (like Los Angeles, San Francisco, and London-style tolls) may hesitate to implement them, fearing legal or political pushback.

2. Funding Challenges for Smart Infrastructure



Congestion pricing generates revenue for improving public transit, upgrading road infrastructure, and implementing smart technologies like AI-driven traffic lights and real-time monitoring. Without this funding, cities may struggle to invest in these technologies, slowing down modernization efforts.

3. Increased Traffic and Pollution



Smart cities aim to reduce congestion and emissions through data-driven solutions. If congestion pricing is removed, traffic in Manhattan (and potentially other cities with similar plans) could increase, leading to more pollution, slower travel times, and a negative impact on urban sustainability efforts.

4. Legal and Political Uncertainty



If the federal government can revoke an already approved congestion pricing plan, it sets a precedent that could discourage cities from adopting similar initiatives. Smart city policies may become more politically contested, delaying progress in urban innovation.

5. Shift Toward Alternative Solutions



Without congestion pricing, cities may look for alternative ways to manage congestion, such as:
  • Expanding public transit subsidies
  • Implementing stricter carpool lanes
  • Using AI-based traffic flow optimization
  • Promoting electric vehicles through incentives

Conclusion



If the legal challenge fails and congestion pricing is permanently halted, smart city initiatives that rely on tolling as a traffic control and revenue tool may face setbacks. However, cities committed to modernization may seek alternative strategies to achieve similar goals.
 
 


If Trump halts New York City&rsquo s congestion pricing, it could impact  ST Engineering&rsquo s Smart City  solutions, particularly in areas like traffic management, urban mobility, and intelligent transportation systems. Here&rsquo s how:

1. Impact on Smart Traffic Solutions



ST Engineering provides  AI-driven traffic management systems, including adaptive traffic lights and congestion monitoring. NYC&rsquo s congestion pricing was a key initiative using such technologies. If it&rsquo s canceled, there may be  less demand for traffic optimization solutions  in NYC and other cities that were considering similar projects.

2. Reduced Investment in Smart Mobility



Congestion pricing was set to fund  public transit upgrades, including modernizing subway signals and improving accessibility&mdash areas where ST Engineering&rsquo s solutions, such as  integrated transport management and fare collection systems, could have played a role. With funding now uncertain, investments in these technologies may slow down.

3. Influence on Global Smart City Projects



NYC&rsquo s congestion pricing was seen as a model for other cities. If it gets blocked, it might discourage other urban centers from adopting  ST Engineering&rsquo s congestion management and road pricing solutions. However, cities already investing in smart urban planning&mdash like  Singapore, London, and Dubai&mdash will likely continue pushing forward.

4. Opportunities in Alternative Solutions



If congestion pricing is halted, NYC and other cities may look for alternative ways to manage congestion, such as:
  • AI-driven predictive traffic analytics  (an area where ST Engineering is strong)
  • Smart parking management  to optimize space usage
  • Intelligent tolling solutions  outside of city centers
  • Public transit efficiency improvements  to encourage usage over driving

Conclusion



While a halt to congestion pricing could reduce immediate opportunities for ST Engineering in NYC, demand for smart mobility solutions remains strong globally. ST Engineering may need to  adapt its offerings  toward alternative traffic management solutions as cities explore new ways to improve urban mobility without congestion tolls.

Would you like insights on ST Engineering&rsquo s specific projects in NYC or other smart city initiatives?

LONG-TERM plans to spur growth, and tax rebates and incentives for certain companies, these were among the highlights of Singapore&rsquo s Budget 2025 statement delivered by Prime Minister and Finance Minister Lawrence Wong on Tuesday (Feb 18). 

Ahead of the nation&rsquo s 60th birthday, Budget 2025 tackled immediate and long-term issues faced by Singapore. This ranged from affordability concerns and support for workers and families, to future steps the country must take as it forges ahead into a future marked by tech disruption, geopolitical uncertainty and climate threat. 

With tax perks, vouchers and more funds earmarked for investments to nurture growth in critical sectors &ndash such as semiconductors, biotech, and clean energy &ndash analysts say some players in Singapore are positioned to emerge as winners from the schemes unveiled at Budget 2025. 
 

Semiconductor, R& D- and manufacturing-related companies 



Shares of semiconductor-related companies such as  AEM  :  AWX  -1.86%  and  Frencken  :  E28  -1.75%  could benefit from a greater focus on research and development (R& D), said DBS and Maybank. 

This comes as the government intends to invest S$1 billion in research infrastructure and develop a new national semiconductor R& D fabrication facility. 

ST Engineering  :  S63  -0.78%  could also gain from the increased emphasis on value-added manufacturing, said Maybank.

Grocers and Reits 



Grocers such as  Sheng Siong  :  OV8  0%  and  DFI  :  D01  -0.89%  could get a boost from the measures unveiled to help ease inflationary pressures and costs of living, said DBS, OCBC, Maybank and CGS International. These measures include SG60 and CDC Vouchers for households and individuals and a 60 per cent personal income tax rebate. 

The gains from higher spending on essentials and groceries could spill over to real estate investment trusts with suburban retail exposure, such as  CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust  :  C38U  -0.51%  and  Frasers Centrepoint Trust  :  J69U  -0.96%, added DBS, OCBC, and Maybank. 

Companies with clean energy businesses 



The government&rsquo s commitment to clean power, with its S$5 billion investment top-up into the Future Energy Fund after an earlier tranche announced at Budget 2024 &ndash bodes well for  Sembcorp Industries  :  U96  +1.81%  and  Keppel  :  BN4  +0.44%, said DBS.

In his first Budget speech since becoming prime minister, Finance Minister Lawrence Wong announced broad-based measures for households and businesses.
 


It could boost growth and investments for these utility and infrastructure players that have businesses in clean energy, the lender added. 

CGS International noted that this could herald a long-term &ldquo positive outlook&rdquo for the firms. As they operate generation companies, they could be invited to submit bids in new investments or studies on new energy sources, including nuclear power, which the government intends to explore, it added. 

Financial sector stocks 



Local bourse operator  Singapore Exchange (SGX)  :  S68  -0.94%could gain from the tax incentives introduced to encourage listings here and revive the local equities market, said DBS. 

The measures include a corporate income tax rebate for Singapore-based firms seeking a SGX listing, enhanced concessionary tax rates for new fund managers who want to list locally and scale up their activities via public-fundraising, and tax exemptions for fund managers who invest substantially in Singapore-listed equities. 

The SGX&rsquo s position as a leading multi-asset exchange may be bolstered by the tax incentives for fund managers with substantial investments in Singapore-listed equities, DBS added. These tax incentives could draw more institutional capital, bolster the bourse&rsquo s trading volumes, and raise demand for a wider range of financial products, it said. 

Stocks of local banks  DBS  :  D05  +0.48%,  UOB  :  U11  -0.28%, and  OCBC  :  O39  +0.23%, could benefit from a potential boost to credit demand driven by government fund top-ups for the Coastal and Flood Protection Fund and the Changi Airport Changi Airport Development Fund, said Maybank. 

Aviation-related firms



Analysts are split on aviation-related stocks following the government&rsquo s guarantee to Changi Airport Group to lower borrowing costs for its development of Terminal 5 and its S$5 billion top-up for the Changi Airport Development Fund. 

DBS thinks the top up will have &ldquo limited impact&rdquo on stocks of national carrier  Singapore Airlines  :  C6L  -1.09%  and ground handler  Sats  :  S58  -1.19%, stating that improved funding costs were not likely to translate into a &ldquo more measured pace of airport fee hikes given current conditions&rdquo . 

OCBC believes Sats and  SIA Engineering  :  S59  +0.42%  could benefit from the opening of Terminal 5 expanding the airport&rsquo s capacity, but cautioned that this will likely play out only in the long run as the new terminal is set to open in mid-2030.
