- Interim dividend of HK1.5 cents per share (2025 interim dividend: HK3 cents per share).
Business Review
- ISO dry container industry continued to face challenges from production overcapacity, which kept dry freight container prices under pressure, which was adversely affected the Group's performance.
- Specialised and customised container segment grew healthily, driven primarily by the provision of "full integration" services for Energy Storage System containers ("ESS containers") customers.
- Demand for ESS containers was strong as countries accelerated the deployment of solar and energy storage facilities, supported by national policies promoting green and new-energy development.
- Sustained investments in enhancing production capabilities and research and development enabled the Group to cultivate strong relationships with long-term clients.
Manufacturing and leasing
- Manufacturing and leasing business generated US$178,278,000 in revenue (1H2025: US$236,237,000), accounting for 92.0% of the Group's total revenue (1H2025: 93.9%), with profit before taxation and non-controlling interests at US$4,827,000 (1H2025: US$15,816,000).
- Total sales volume amounted to 43,000 twenty-foot equivalent units ("TEUs") of dry freight and ISO specialised containers (1H2025: 84,000 TEUs), with the ASP of a 20' dry freight container falling to US$1,613 (1H2025: US$1,845).
- Through transformation efforts, revenue generated from dry freight containers reduced to 36.4% of segment revenue, with specialised and customised containers accounting for 63.6% (1H2025: dry freight containers 59.8%, specialised and customised containers 40.2%).
- Sales revenue generated from specialised and customised containers increased by 17.0% to US$106,329,000 (1H2025: US$90,918,000), of which over 76.1% was contributed by the sales of ESS containers.
- The leasing business creates synergies with the manufacturing segment, enabling the Group to optimise operations and profitability.
Logistics services
- Revenue from the logistics services segment was US$15,536,000 (1H2025: US$15,390,000).
- Profit before taxation and non-controlling interests was US$4,363,000 (1H2025: US$4,721,000).
- Handled approximately 368,000 TEUs (1H2025: 379,000 TEUs) and repaired 94,000 TEUs (1H2025: 71,000 TEUs), with average daily container storage reaching 41,000 TEUs (1H2025: 30,000 TEUs).
Mr Teo Siong Seng, Chairman of Singamas, said: "Moving forward, our key focus for the dry freight segment will be on cost control and operational efficiency. On the other hand, capacity expansion for customised containers will remain a key enabler of Singamas's transformation. Supported by the "full integration" model and recurring income from our leasing and logistics businesses, we believe we have established a more sustainable business model. We will continue focusing on the specialised and customised segment to advance our transformation and deliver more stable returns to shareholders."
