KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 26, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - PROPEL GLOBAL BERHAD ("Propel Global" or the "Group”), a provider of oil and gas (“O&G”) services, today announced its financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2025 (“Q1 FY2025”). The Group recorded revenue of RM34.3 million for the quarter ended 30 September 2024, reflecting a 24.2% increase from RM27.6 million in the corresponding quarter of the previous year (“Q1 FY2024”).Ms. Angeline Lee, Executive Director, Group Chief Executive Officer of Propel GlobalThe Group achieved revenue growth in Q1 FY2025, driven primarily by the Oil & Gas (“O&G”) segment, which contributed RM20.3 million. This performance was supported by ongoing Engineering, Procurement, Construction & Commissioning (“EPCC”) and Marine Heating, Ventilation, and Air-conditioning (“HVAC”) projects. While the segment’s profit before tax (“PBT”) moderated to RM1.4 million compared to RM5.0 million in Q1 FY2024, this was primarily due to a foreign exchange loss of RM1.1 million from the depreciation of the US Dollar and the absence of one-off gains recorded in the previous year, amounting to RM2.8 million.The Technical Services (“TS”) segment achieved impressive revenue growth, reaching RM11.2 million, up from RM8.6 million in Q1 FY2024, reflecting progress on the construction of an electronics factory in Chuping, Perlis. Although the segment posted a marginal loss before tax (“LBT”) of RM0.2 million, this was mainly due to increased material and operational costs, which the Group is actively addressing to enhance margins moving forward.The Information and Communications Technology (“ICT”) segment continued its steady performance, contributing RM2.8 million in revenue and RM0.6 million in PBT. This reflects the success of the Group’s diversification strategy and its ability to capitalise on growth opportunities in the digital technology sector.For Q1 FY2025, the Group reported a LBT of RM4.0 million, compared to a PBT of RM0.9 million in Q1 FY2024. This was due to higher corporate administrative expenses, including professional charges and staff costs, along with a fair value loss of RM0.5 million on quoted shares and goodwill impairment losses of RM0.2 million. The absence of one-off gains recorded in the previous year further impacted the overall comparative performance.Despite these challenges, the Group remains well-positioned for future growth, with total equity of RM102.5 million and cash and cash equivalents of RM19.8 million as of 30 September 2024. This robust position enables PGB to invest in strategic initiatives and confidently navigate market uncertainties while maintaining a focus on long term value creation for stakeholders.Ms. Angeline Lee, Executive Director / Group Chief Executive Officer of Propel Global commented, “Our Q1 FY2025 results highlight the resilience of our business amidst external challenges. While foreign exchange losses and the absence of one-off gains impacted our profitability, our revenue growth reflects the strength of our core operations and ongoing diversification efforts.”She added, “With our increased stake in Best Wide Engineering Sdn. Bhd. (“BWE”) to 90.0%, we are well-positioned to capitalise on opportunities in the oil and gas sector, particularly as Petronas continues its RM60 billion capital expenditure. Additionally, our focus on HVAC services aligns with Malaysia’s sustainability goals under the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and Budget 2025, positioning us to meet the rising demand for energy-efficient solutions.”The Group remains optimistic about its growth prospects in fiscal year 2025 (“FY2025”). In the O&G segment, Petronas’ substantial investments, including RM10 billion in recently awarded contracts for Maintenance, Construction, and Modification (“MCM”) projects, provide a solid foundation for growth. The HVAC segment is set to benefit from Malaysia’s ambitious sustainability goals, with RM300 million allocated under Budget 2025 to support green initiatives and the potential introduction of a carbon tax in 2026 further encouraging businesses to adopt eco-friendly practices. PGB’s expertise in energy-efficient solutions positions the Group to capitalise on these trends.While global economic uncertainties persist, driven by geopolitical tensions and potential supply chain disruptions following the recent US presidential election, Malaysia’s economy is expected to grow steadily, with GDP forecasted to rise by 4.5% to 5.5% in 2025. This positive outlook, supported by a historic RM421 billion in expenditure under Budget 2025, underscores the Group’s confidence in its ability to navigate challenges and deliver sustainable growth for its stakeholders.ABOUT PROPEL GLOBAL BERHADPropel Global Berhad (“Propel Global” or the “Group”) is a provider of oil and gas (O&G) services, including the supply and provision of maintenance services for air-conditioning and ventilation systems, alongside specialised oilfield services such as pipe recovery, well intervention, diagnostic and sand management, and production enhancement.

香港, 2024年11月25日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 近年来，随着汽车电动化、智能化发展，中国智能驾驶科技市场规模快速增长，让越来越多的用户享受到更安全、舒适和智能的出行体验。在这个过程中，扮演重要角色的智驾企业也步入了高速增长阶段。其中，作为在全球范围内提供智驾解决方案的科技企业之一，福瑞泰克（浙江）智能科技股份有限公司于11月22日向港交所递交上市申请，借助资本市场将进一步扩大领先地位。站在长坡厚雪赛道，业绩呈快速增长趋势福瑞泰克专注于高级驾驶辅助系统(ADAS)和自动驾驶系统(ADS)技术，主要为OEM提供全栈智能驾驶解决方案，包括大型传统OEM和新兴汽车制造商。据灼识咨询的资料，在2023年中国L2级及L2+/L2++级智能驾驶解决方案市场中，公司位列自主供应商第三名，市场份额为14.6%。从行业角度来看，具有领先优势往往意味着公司拥有更出色的产品交付能力，更广泛的客户群体和更完善的技术平台，使公司能够抓住市场机遇，为客户提供优质的服务，从而确立市场地位。具体来看，上述底气体现在市场的增长潜力和公司持续释放的业绩潜能。就前者来说，随着高速NOA和城市NOA加速普及，汽车智能化发展势头日益强劲。全球量产级L0级至L2+╱L2++级智驾解决方案以收入计的市场规模由2019年的1083亿元增加至2023年的2771亿元，复合年增长率为26.5%，预期到2028年将达到6503亿元，2023年至2028年的复合年增长率为18.6%。而中国作为全球最大的智驾解决方案市场，预期到2028年将达到2103亿元，2023年至2028年的复合年增长率为24.1%。其中，搭载L2级智驾解决方案的汽车渗透率预期将从2023年的33.8%增至2028年的51.8%，搭载L2+/L2++级智驾解决方案的汽车渗透率预期将从2023年的3.6%增至2028年的22.1%。这意味着，福瑞泰克正处在一个高成长赛道之上，有望抓住中国乃至全球市场中井喷的客户需求，未来对海外市场的持续布局将转化为重要的增长点。就后者来说，福瑞泰克在过去几年的业绩呈现加速增长趋势。招股书显示，收入由2021年的3.33亿元增长至2023年的9.08亿元，三年时间收入规模翻了三倍，2024年上半年的收入同比增长33.7%至3.12亿元。这体现出公司业务保持扩张，证明了其在智驾解决方案市场具备竞争优势，展现出充足的商业化潜能。此外，公司在研发上大力投入，2021年至2023年，分别投入1.84亿元、5.15亿元和5.61亿元，三年累计超12.6亿元，为公司抓住更多变现机会，展现更强大的盈利能力提供可靠的支撑。所以，综合考虑公司当前的领先地位、全球智驾解决方案市场的潜力、公司日益完善的商业化能力，福瑞泰克有实力为投资者描绘向好的增长姿态和成长预期，这也无疑会对市场资金释放出巨大的吸引力。多维度竞争壁垒，多元投资方加持，有望塑造行业标杆如何评估福瑞泰克的长期潜力？在广泛认知中，要在智驾科技领域持续突破，企业往往要面对以下难点：较长的验证周期、交付周期；技术、人才和资源等多方面的考虑；在较高的投入回报周期下，部分企业还要考虑资金压力。对福瑞泰克来说，其正是围绕这些方面建立起了多维度的竞争壁垒。首先是客户壁垒。公司掌握多元化的合作伙伴，招股书显示，截至今年上半年，公司已与46家OEM建立业务合作伙伴关系，涵盖了全部国内十大OEM（按2023年汽车销量计），并拥有累计超过280个定点项目及累计超过200个量产项目，覆盖多样化且不断增长的车型。这说明福瑞泰克在市场端有着深厚积累和量产项目经验，使得产能利用率得到保障，释放规模效应的同时带来稳定的业绩增长。这也意味着，公司在交付能力、质量管控等方面具备竞争优势，收获大量OEM认可。比如，截至今年上半年，公司的智驾解决方案的最短交付周期仅8个月，根据灼识咨询的资料，这显著快于行业平均水平。其次是技术壁垒。从终端客户的需求来判断智驾技术领先，本质是判断安全、舒适、智能的车辆驾驶体验。不同的智驾科技企业带来的实际体验差异较大，背后具备极高的技术门槛。而福瑞泰克基于全栈自研的ODIN平台，硬件、软件和算法的深度整合，在保证产品最佳性能的同时，能够高效地为客户提供兼容不同车型，全面、灵活且具备成本效益的解决方案。由此，福瑞泰克在行业中具备差异化优势。比如，以13 TOPS的算力提供行业领先的高速NOA和APA等行泊一体高阶智驾功能，在低算力要求下实现高性价比的产品。在严格管控单车成本的背景下，技术和产品顺应最新的市场趋势，由此具备充足的市场竞争力。最后是人才和资源壁垒。招股书显示，目前公司共有员工855人，其中研发人员625人，占总员工的73.1%。其中，50.6%持有学士学位，47.2%持有硕士或以上学位。公司掌握行业稀缺的研发人才，给技术创新提供了底层的支撑。同时，公司此前已完成多轮融资，股东包括政府产业基金、知名专业投资机构以及吉利、上汽、北汽、东风及陕汽等多家行业战略合作伙伴。多元化的股东背景能为公司的业务发展提供全面的支持，此外，这也足见IPO前投资者对公司价值的高度认可。智驾产业具备技术、人才和资本密集等特点，长期来看，高端且高性价比的智驾解决方案产品，天然有着较高的竞争壁垒。因此，福瑞泰克有望在竞争中持续胜出，打造成为行业标杆，长期树立牢固的行业地位。总结：总的来说，福瑞泰克作为投资标的，从业绩、技术、客户和资源等多维度来看，公司含金量较高，并且掌握少数玩家才拥有的竞争力。从市场角度看，当前汽车智能化渗透率还有巨大的提升空间，智驾解决方案市场尚在发展初期，行业格局还没有定型。而公司已占据领先地位，有望实现"强者恒强"。所以，投资者有理由认可福瑞泰克的价值潜力，若未来成功上市，表现也将令人期待。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, Nov 22, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Tat Hong Equipment Service Co., Ltd. (“Tat Hong” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”) (Stock Code: 2153), the first foreign-owned tower crane service provider established in the PRC, has announced its interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2024 (the “Period”).During the Period, the Group recorded revenue of approximately RMB340.9 million (2023: RMB358.6 million). Loss attributable to equity shareholders of the Company was RMB36.2 million (2023: RMB20.4 million). Such increase in loss was mainly attributable to the decrease in the average monthly service price of tower cranes per tonne metres (TM) in use from RMB225 toRMB208, thereby affecting the Group's revenue.Total tonne meters (TM) in use by the Group increased to 1,637,740 for the Period from 1,594,911 in the previous same period. As at 30 September 2024, the Group had 327 projects in progress with total outstanding contract value at approximately RMB444.6 million and 47 projects on hand with expected total contract value at approximately RMB235.1 million.For the six months ended 30 September 2024, global economic recovery had slowed down and the mainland China economic downward pressure had been significant. Due to insufficient market demand and decline in the average monthly tower crane service price per TM, market competition was intense for the construction machinery industry. To cope with the slow recovery of the domestic construction industry and the persistently weak macro economy, plus to boost future income, the Group had actively adjusted its strategies, restructured business layout and expanded business overseas during the Period.Responding to the national and international calls to promote green energy and support enterprises in accelerating transformation, the Group set up a Clean Energy Division in 2023 to focus on expanding clean energy businesses including nuclear power plants. At the same time, the Group had actively shifted to focus on thermal power plant projects. It expects revenue generated from these projects on hand to be reflected in its future results. With the new subsidiary in Guangzhou, the Group had deepened coverage in the Greater Bay Area. The Group also speeded up expansion in Indonesia, with a joint venture with a local partner in 2024 after years of careful strategic planning. With rich experience in operating business in Indonesia, the partner is expected to give the Group the support it needs to expand the Indonesian market.During the Period, the Group continued to expand its medium-to-large tower crane fleet. As at the end of the Period, it managed a total of 1,193 tower cranes, the second largest fleet in the PRC tower crane service market. With such a strong tower crane fleet, the Group has been able to focus on medium-to-large construction projects, providing them with comprehensive services with tower cranes that afford a wide range of lifting capacities. The considerable number of medium-to-large tower cranes the Group owns also give it advantage in bidding for larger and more complicated projects, and as such, allowing it to increase revenue from and the profit margins of future projects.Mr. Sean Yau, CEO of Tat Hong Equipment Service Co., Ltd., said: "Recently, the Chinese government has introduced a comprehensive package of incremental policies to expand effective investment, stimulate consumption demand, attract investment, support industrial upgrade, ease enterprises’ difficulties and issues, implement fiscal and financial measures, and stabilize the real estate market. It is evident that the country is increasing fiscal support and charting a clear course of recovery for all industries. Moreover, there is still strong demand in the domestic infrastructure and energy sector. That plus the fast-growing infrastructure markets in the Greater Bay Area and Southeast Asia have provided the Group with huge business development opportunities.”Mr. Roland Ng, Chairman of Tat Hong Equipment Service Co., Ltd., said: “The present pace of market recovery in China is sluggish, but with the new focus on high-quality growth, it is expected to gradually get back on track. We will keep our eyes on the fast-changing global market environment and adjust our operational and geographical strategies accordingly. At home in the PRC, we will seize the new opportunities brought by the rapid development of clean and green energy. Abroad, as the first foreign-funded tower crane service provider set up in the PRC, we will continue to take advantage of our brand reputation, rich industry experience, mature execution skills, profound technical strength and solid customer base to help us ‘go global’. With support from the ‘Belt and Road’ initiative and other policies encouraging enterprises to venture overseas, the Group will push to expand into more overseas markets.”About Tat Hong Equipment Service Co., Ltd. (Stock Code: 2153)Tat Hong Equipment Service Co., Ltd. is the first foreign-owned tower crane service provider established in the PRC.
