As the construction sector revenue is based on contract order books. The company needs to keep seeking for more contracts to improve their revenue in the future. In this situation, we will be more concerned about the trade receivables amount and trade receivables turnover for Siab Holdings Berhad. As trade receivable amount and trade receivables turnover can reflect whether the customer paid in time. Long overdue payments have a high probability to become bad debt and will cause impairment loss on the financial statement.
