Mr Tai Yee Chee , Chief Executive Officer of Pekat, said this strategic move positions Pekat in a well-established sector, offering steady growth and solid returns. By adding this robust new pillar, Pekat reinforces its path to sustainable and enduring profitability, with the power distribution segment projected to contribute 25% or more to the Group's future earnings.
Pekat的首席执行官Mr Tai Yee Chee表示,这一战略举措使Pekat在一个成熟的行业内定位,提供稳定的增长和可观的回报。通过增加这一强大的新支柱,Pekat加强了其通向可持续和持久盈利的道路,预计电力分配板块将为集团未来的营业收入贡献25%或更多。
"Pekat will leverage on Apex Power Group's track record in the Power Distribution Equipment Business segment and foreign markets presence to expand and complement the Group's existing businesses and market position.
“Pekat将利用Apex Power Group在电力分配设备业务板块及外部市场的业绩记录,扩大和补充集团现有的业务和市场地位。”
"This is expected to be achieved via the integration of power distribution equipment marketed under the "EPE" brand into the Pekat's products and services, thereby allowing cross-selling of the Group's ELP products to EPE Switchgear's customer base, as well as the inclusion of EPE Switchgear's power distribution equipment for the Group's solar projects," he added.
“预计通过将以“EPE”品牌销售的电力分配设备整合到Pekat的产品和服务中,从而实现跨销售集团的ELP产品到EPE Switchgear的客户群体,并将EPE Switchgear的电力分配设备纳入集团的太阳能项目中,”他补充道。
Accordingly, this would facilitate Pekat to tender and/or secure new contracts or customers, as well as potentially venturing into new foreign markets by offering a more comprehensive range of products and services.
因此,这将有助于Pekat招标和/或获得新合同或客户,并可能通过提供更全面的产品和服务以进军新的外部市场。
"The Power Distribution Equipment Business segment is expected to increase and diversify the Group's earnings based on the aggregated profit guarantee from Apex Power of not less than RM48 million for the combined periods in the financial year ending Sept 30, 2024 (FY2024) to FY2026. Therefore, we expects the new business segment to contribute 25% or more of the net profits of the Group in the future," Mr Tai further added.
“电力分配设备业务板块预计将基于Apex Power提供的总利润担保,在2024财年(截至2024年9月30日)至2026财年的合并期间为集团的营业收入增长和多样化不低于4800万林吉特。因此,我们预计这一新业务板块将在未来为集团的净利润贡献25%或更多,”Mr Tai进一步补充道。
