It would be slightly better to those low tech companies supplying equipments to China for producing chips above 16nm. “China-based chip fabs that produce logic chips of 16-nm or below, DRAM memory chips of 18-nm half-pitch or less, or NAND chips with 128 layers or more will have to apply for licenses to purchase items from the US” 17/10/2022 8:02 PM neohts don't key in sell even if you want to sell.

KUALA LUMPUR (Nov 3): Pentamaster Corp Bhd’s third quarter net profit rose 5.6% from a year earlier, helped by improved revenue contribution from its automated test equipment (ATE) and factory automation solutions (FAS) segments. The group said net profit for the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2022 (3QFY2022) rose to RM20.07 million or 2.82 sen per share, from RM19.01 million or 2.67 sen per share. Revenue in the ATE segment jumped by RM27.3 million to RM121 million from RM93.8 million, while revenue from the FAS segment registered a 14.7% increase to RM54.7 million from RM47.7 million. For the first nine months of FY2022, Pentamaster’s net profit rose 12.55% to RM59.7 million from RM53.02 million a year earlier, as revenue climbed 17.38% to RM452.96 million from RM385.9 million. Pentamaster said it is optimistic about achieving another record year of business growth in FY2022 after recording a double-digit revenue growth for the nine-month period. It said all other industry segments of the group witnessed encouraging growth during the period, and that contributed positively to both the ATE and FAS segments, with the exception of the group’s electrooptical segment. “Particularly, the group finds the automotive and the medical devices segments having strong positive momentum heading towards next year, barring any significant deterioration in the global economic situation and geopolitical risk. 04/11/2022 8:15 AM The1913Sun Pentamaster Corp Bhd continues to see healthy order replenishment and backlog orders at record levels of above RM500mil as of the end of September 2022. Out of this, 60% of the orders are from the automated test equipment (ATE) segment and the remaining 40% from the factory automation solutions (FAS) segment, CGS-CIMB Research said in a post third-quarter 2022 (3Q22) results briefing with Pentamaster’s management. 08/11/2022 12:43 PM The1913Sun Management targets the medical devices segment to contribute 12% to 14% revenue in forecast FY22 and 20% in FY23, versus 6% in 2021. 08/11/2022 12:43 PM The1913Sun CGS-CIMB Research said Plant 3 will be dedicated to the FAS division, and overall, it will be instrumental to the group in achieving the target of hitting RM1bil revenue by 2025. The research firm said it was keeping its “hold” rating on the stock, with an unchanged RM3.75 target price based on a 2024 price-to-earnings ratio of 22 times, which was one standard deviation below the Malaysian ATE sector’s five-year mean PE of 31 times. “We see easing travel restrictions, stronger earnings contribution from the automotive and medical segments, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for new medical consumables and new customer wins as potential upside devlopments” said CGS-CIMB Research. The downside risks to the “hold” call are delays in FDA approval for new medical consumables, an extended slowdown in mobile device demand and the deferment of order fulfillment due to slower inventory digestion in the semiconductor industry. 08/11/2022 12:43 PM The1913Sun Pentamaster Corp Bhd’s third quarter net profit rose 5.6% from a year earlier, helped by improved revenue contribution from its automated test equipment (ATE) and factory automation solutions (FAS) segments. 09/11/2022 4:45 PM neohts https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/worst-may-not-be-over-investors-could-start-looking-tech-stocks-again AFTER two years of a superbull run, Bursa Malaysia-listed semiconductor and semiconductor-related companies have seen their market capitalisation crumble since the beginning of the year, much like their counterparts in the US and other parts of the world.

Industrious. 3iii (iiinvestsmart)$â¬Â£Â¥ Segmental Information The Group has three operating segments which are involved in different activities and are managed by segment managers who report directly to the Group’s executive directors. The operating segments are as follows: (i) Automated test equipment (“ATE”): Designing, development and manufacturing of standard and nonstandard automated equipment; (ii) Factory automation solutions (“FAS”): Designing, development and installation of integrated factory automation solutions; (iii) Smart control solution system: Project management, smart building solutions and trading of materials. The Group’s revenue was mainly contributed by the ATE and FAS segments, constituting approximately 70.1% and 29.9% respectively of the Group’s total revenue in FYE 31 December 2022. The Group closed its 12M2022 with a profit before taxation of RM132.1 million, representing an increase of 10.6% from a profit before taxation of RM119.5 million recorded in 12M2021. Basic earnings per share increased from 2.79 sen in 4Q2021 to 3.20 sen in 4Q2022 and increased from 10.24 sen in 12M2021 to 11.58 sen in 12M2022. Automated test equipment During the year, backed by the electrification in the automobile industry and the proliferation of the electric vehicles (“EV”) ecosystem, the automotive industry emerged as the leading segment within the ATE business unit, contributing approximately 58.4% as compared to 27.6% in the previous year. Underpinned by a massive wave of developments in automotive electrification and the various global decarbonisation policies which accelerated the adoption of EV, the Group’s broad array of automotive test solutions specifically the front-end tester for SiC and back end solutions for power devices made a meaningful breakthrough in the addressable market. On the other hand, while the semiconductor industry is inherently cyclical, the ATE segment also benefitted from the semiconductor industry with its revenue contribution rate of 19.9%, representing an overall 17.6% growth as compared to 2021. In contrast, revenue from the electro-optical within the ATE segment contracted to 19.0% in 2022, from 49.7% in 2021, Overall, the Group’s strong presence in the automotive industry has complemented its ATE business and such positive development will continue to provide impetus for growth to the overall Group’s ATE segment in the mid-to long term. Factory automation solutions The FAS segment of the Group has been gaining its traction over the last few years. Since the listing of the Company, the FAS segment has been consistently recording years of double-digit revenue growth with the exception of 2019 where a decrease of 18.4% was recorded. The medical devices segment leading and driving the Group’s FAS growth this year with its revenue contribution rose to 41.5% from 19.3% in the previous year. The strong year-on-year revenue growth of 154.6% from the medical devices segment was mainly driven by global manufacturers of medical products in adopting the various process and assembly automation in their manufacturing processes for better productivity and efficiency. The emergence of digital technologies has accelerated the adoption of automation. Many companies across various industries are seen adopting automation in a broader manner especially in a post-pandemic environment in achieving efficiency and productivity within a safe operating environment. Smart control solution system The products and solutions in this segment entail project management, smart building solutions and trading of materials. There was no external revenue from this segment during the financial year. 02/03/2023 10:28 AM Integrity. Intelligent.
