• 1H’10 EPS rises to 3.99 cents, up 156% from 1.56 cents in 1H’09
SGX Mainboard-listed InnoTek said the net profit was achieved on the back of
revenue to S$110.5 million in 2Q’10, an increase of 18.8% from S$93.1 million in
2Q’09, mainly due to higher revenue from MSF, its wholly owned precision
components subsidiary whose sales of Flat Panel TV components improved.
Despite higher revenue, MSF’s net profit in 2Q’10 of S$5.6 million was S$1.4 million
lower than in 2Q’09 (when it reversed S$2.4 million for bad and doubtful debts
provided in 1Q’09 due to the financial crisis and credit crunch). Without this reversal
MSF’s 2Q’10 profit would have been S$1.0 million higher than that of 2Q’09.

Revenue from the precision metal components and sub-assembly segment rose
to S$99.2 million in 2Q’10 from S$83.6 million in 2Q’09. Apart from higher sales
of TV components, frame sales from its Dutch subsidiary Exerion Precision
Technology Holding B.V. rose to S$11.3 million in 2Q’10 from S$9.5 million in
2Q’09 due to higher demand for printing and medical equipment components.
For the six months ended 30 June 2010 (“1H’10”) net profit after tax rose to
S$9.2 million from S$3.6 million in 1H’09, on revenue of S$204.1 million, a 15.5%
increase from S$176.7 million, respectively.
Earnings per share rose to 3.99 cents in 1H’10 from 1.56 cents in 1H’09. Net
asset backing per share as at 30 June 2010 stood at 85.4 cents compared to
87.7 cents at 31 March 2010. This was mainly due to the payment of dividend in
May 2010 amounting to S$11.4 million or 5 cents per share.
The Group’s financial position remains healthy. As at 30 June, its cash and cash
equivalents stood at S$98.8 million. With total borrowings of S$40.8 million, its
net cash position amounted to S$58.0 million or 25.5 cents per share.
The Group also holds 18.4 million treasury shares with an average cost of
S$0.50 per share, as part of its share buyback programme to enhance
shareholder value.
“In the absence of any deterioration of business conditions, the Group’s 3Q’10
performance is expected to exceed that of 3Q’09 while that of 2H’10 will improve
over 2H’09,” said InnoTek Group Managing Director Mr Yong Kok Hoon.
“The Group will continue to actively pursue appropriate merger and acquisitions
opportunities. We will maintain our cautious stance, focusing on earnings-
accretive businesses, and stringently evaluate feasible investment proposals,”
Mr. Yong added.
