SIA Engineering (SGX:S59) | SGinvestors.io
  • SIA Engineering (SGX:S59)’s 1QFY27 net profit of S$40.3m (-6.1% y-o-y) was slightly behind our projection, at 22% of our full year forecast. 1QFY27 saw y-o-y lower earnings contribution from engine JVs/associates (down S$7.0m or 19.2% y-o-y), as one of its key engine MRO JVs, Singapore Aero Engine Services, incurred gestation costs for capacity expansion works.

Fundamentals remain healthy:

  • Excluding the cost pass-through effects for raw materials, revenue rose 4.2% y-o-y in 1QFY27, driven by stable MRO demand, and a 2.9% y-o-y growth in SIA Engineering’s Singapore line maintenance business volume. This contrasts with y-o-y lower flight throughput at Changi Airport (down 1.6% y-o-y in Apr-May 26) due to regional carriers’ flight cancellation amid the US-Iran war.
