This article first appeared in The Edge Malaysia Weekly, on March 6 - 12, 2017.

KELINGTON Group Bhd hopes losses will be a thing of the past as it turned around in the financial year just ended after a year in the red. Furthermore, its expansion into turnkey engineering services is expected to see it ride the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry.

The group turned in a net profit of RM8.69 million in the financial year ended Dec 31, 2016 (FY2016) from FY2015’s net loss of RM2.55 million, lifted by its two project packages amounting to S$36 million (RM106 million) for the expansion of Micron Technology’s flash memory fabrication facility in Singapore.

The group is expecting net profit and revenue to see a double-digit percentage growth this year.

Gartner Says Worldwide Semiconductor Revenue Forecast to Grow 7.2 Percent in 2017
Worldwide semiconductor revenue is forecast to total $364.1 billion in 2017, an increase of 7.2 percent from 2016, according to Gartner, Inc. This represents a complete turnaround for the semiconductor industry as the market experienced 1.5 percent growth in 2016.

"The worst is now over with a positive outlook emerging for 2017 driven by inventory replenishment and increasing average selling prices (ASPs) in select markets, particularly commodity memory and application-specific standard products," said Ganesh Ramamoorthy, research vice president at Gartner. "The turnaround that started at the end of the second quarter of 2016 will continue to gain momentum and we expect the improved conditions to carry through 2017."

KGB WILL BENEFIT IT

KUALA LUMPUR (March 20): North America-based manufacturers of semiconductor equipment posted US$1.97 billion in billings worldwide in February 2017 (three-month average basis) and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.09, according to the Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI).

In a statement on its website March 16, SEMI said the billings figure was 6.1% higher month-on-month January level of US$1.86 billion, and 63.8% higher year-on-year from US%1.20 billion in 2016.

In a statetement on its website on June 16, SEMI said the bookings figure was 9.6% higher than the final April 2016 level of US$1.60 billion, and is 2.8% higher than the May 2015 order level of US$1.56 billion.

SEMI president and CEO Ajit Manocha said billing levels remain elevated as memory and foundry manufacturers continue to invest in advanced semiconductor technologies.

“These investments are paving the way for the ramp of 3D NAND and 1X-nm devices,” he said.

HIGH DEMAND FOR SEMI CONDUCTOR LEAD TO EXPANSION BY MANUFACTURER AROUND THE GLOBE, DIRECT BENEFIT KGB.

indeed, if without those 3 legal cases, it should be above RM1 long time ago. Hopefully there would no new legal case drag the performance this year.

but good news is they had recover 1.3 million in January and win one of the legal case (5 mil) last year which currently in appealing court.

KELINGTON DELIVERS TURNAROUND IN FY2016 WITH RECORD-HIGH REVENUE OF RM340 MILLION

• Returns to the black with full year net profit of RM8.7 million, from net loss position in previous year.

• Gross profit margins increased to 11.3% from 9.8% in previous year
Kuala Lumpur, 22 February 2017 – Integrated engineering solutions provider, Kelington Group Berhad (“Kelington” or “Group”) has reported a commendable financial performance for the fourth quarter ended 31 December 2016 (4Q2016).

4Q2016 revenue increased by 16% to RM106.1 million from RM91.4 million in the previous year’s corresponding period. Net profit stood at RM4.6 million, a turnaround from a net loss position of RM7.1 million in the previous year’s corresponding period.

In recent years, the Group had been successful at expanding its core business beyond Ultra High Purity gas solutions to provide process engineering solutions and general contracting works on a turnkey basis.

In 2016, the Group secured a strong flow of new orders amounting to RM323 million.

Resulting from this, revenue for the full year period (FY2016) soared by 65% to RM340.2 million, hitting
a record-high in the Group’s history. Revenue contribution from all of the Group’s four key operating markets in Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and China grew from the previous year.

With a more stringent productivity programme in place to monitor costs, the Group’s FY2016 gross profit margin increased to 11.3% from 9.8% in the previous year.

For the full year 2016, Kelington delivered a net profit of RM8.7 million or 3.95 sen earnings per share. This is a significant turnaround from the previous year’s loss position which was affected by the provision of impairment losses on certain projects and receivables.

Ir. Raymond Gan, Chief Executive Officer of Kelington Group Berhad said, “We are very pleased with our financial performance for 2016, having set new records in our revenue and order flows.

We are gaining a strong track record in delivering turnkey engineering works, having completed certain notable jobs. This adds credibility to the Group as we bid for similar type of jobs which carry higher values and command higher margins.”
