keppel corp case... the earnings actually increased, yet the analyst all downgrade to sell... at PE 8 and yield of 6% , it was really cheap

however the same cannot be said for SIA ENGG

cause fundamentally, earnings is falling... so PE now is quite high at 24 times forwards earnings (based on FY15 avg analyst estimate)
I think this one... maybe if fall to 20 times or less earnings with a dividend yield of 5% or higher then can consider

btw FY15 dividends will be much much lower than FY14
the report of lower earnings is for FY14 no? FY15 expect earnings to go back up due to increased air travel

the parallels with keppel is that the fundhouses all shout sell, but actually they themselves are waiting to go in big time...

not every blue chip is for investing.

since last year in Q3, prospects for engineering firms are no good.
even ST eng also badly affected, if not how it dip to a new 52 weeks low.
i expect earnings to be weak for both firms.

ST eng dropped partly because they announced they will reduce the dividends given by a large amount, so don't think you should credit it totally to the poor prospects or results

and they reduced their dividends given means they may be planning to expand and grow... that is something worth to take into consideration too.

Hopefully, this painful report will result in a better base for which the company can move forward. If kicking the can down the road, it will be much worse. Something like the US government debt...

SIA engineering fourth-quarter income falls 37%
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/sia-engineering-fourth-quarter-income-falls-37-2015-05-12

SINGAPORE--SIA Engineering Co. (S59.SG) Tuesday reported a 37% on-year decline in its fiscal fourth-quarter net profit as fewer airplanes came to it for repairs and maintenance.

Net profit in the January to March quarter was 41.4 million Singapore dollars (US$30.96 million), compared with S$65.2 million in the same period of last year. Revenue declined 11% to S$276 million, the maintenance arm of Singapore Airlines Ltd. (C6L.SG) said in a statement to Singapore Exchange.

Profit for the full fiscal year declined 31% to S$183 million, it said.

"Advancements in the newer generation engines have improved their reliability while the older generation engines are being phased out. These developments will continue to result in a reduction in engine shop visits in the next few years," SIA Engineering said.

Most major carriers in Asia, including Singapore Airlines, operate young aircraft fleets that help reduce fuel expenses and maintenance costs. However, SIA Engineering said with the rapidly rising number of airplanes in the region, it remains confident that demand for maintenance will pick up in the future.
