CGS-CIMB Warns Investors: SIA Engineering’s Profits Unlikely to Reach Pre-Pandemic Levels
April 22, 2023

Trending News ☀️
CGS-CIMB has recently issued a warning to potential investors regarding SIA ($SGX:S59) Engineering’s financial prospects. CGS-CIMB has advised investors to ‘hold’ on SIA Engineering‘s shares, as the company’s near-term profitability is unlikely to recover to its pre-pandemic levels. SIA Engineering Company Limited is a Singapore-based global aerospace and engineering solutions provider. It is involved in the provision of a spectrum of services, such as aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), aircraft component maintenance and engineering services, line maintenance, airframe spares distribution, and other associated engineering services. CGS-CIMB’s warning has been echoed by analysts who expect SIA Engineering’s profits to take a hit in light of the pandemic. The company has been struggling for the past few months due to the pandemic-related disruptions in operations. These disruptions have caused the company’s revenue to decrease significantly and the corresponding profits have taken a hit as well.
In addition, the continued travel restrictions have further weighed on SIA Engineering’s operational performance. The outlook for SIA Engineering appears bleak in the near term, with analysts predicting that it will take some time for the company to be able to recover from the pandemic’s impacts on its business. Therefore, CGS-CIMB has advised investors to remain cautious when considering investing in SIA Engineering’s shares.
Market Price
However, despite this minor rise in the stock, CGS-CIMB analysts have warned investors that SIA Engineering‘s profits are unlikely to reach pre-pandemic levels any time soon. The analysts have voiced concerns over the impact that the pandemic and resulting travel restrictions have had on the aviation industry, which has seen a dramatic fall in air travel. This has consequently had an adverse effect on SIA Engineering’s revenue streams as there has been a corresponding decrease in demand for their services. As such, CGS-CIMB analysts advise investors to be wary of investing in SIA Engineering’s stocks. Live Quote…
