Seatrium resolves fines linked to Brazilian corruption probe - Splash247
Why did the stock drop despite strong earnings?
Market concerns linger over the massive fine. Seatrium recently settled a long-running corruption case with a fine exceeding S$240 million.
On July 30, the stock was suspended pending an announcement. After resuming trading, the stock initially dropped but later recovered.
The company disclosed that it had signed a Leniency Agreement with Brazilian prosecutors related to the “Operation Car Wash” corruption investigation.
Seatrium stated that the settlement will not have a material impact on its FY2025 net profit or tangible net asset value per share, as provisions had already been made in previous financial reports.
Furthermore, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD) have concluded their investigations into potential legal violations, and no further action will be taken against the company or its staff.
Meanwhile, Citibank has issued a “Buy” rating on Seatrium with a target price of S$2.65.
How do you view the massive fine?
Would you consider $Seatrium Ltd(5E2.SI)$ or $SEMBCORP INDUSTRIES LTD(U96.SI)$?

也就是说，我看到了长期价值。Seatrium拥有186亿新元的积压订单，其中34%与绿色项目相关，为复苏做好了准备。花旗银行2.65新元的目标价增加了我的信心。我还关注胜科对清洁能源的关注和一贯的业绩记录。
超跌题材方面，我认为 $新加坡航空公司(C6L.SI)$ 看起来很有趣。尽管旅游业强劲复苏且客座率强劲，但该股最近仍面临压力。由于旅行需求仍然很高，货运也在改善，我相信下跌可能是一个买入机会。

Seatrium Ltd (5E2) carries higher risk due to its exposure to the cyclical offshore and marine sector, while Sembcorp Industries Ltd (U96) offers more diversification and resilience. However, both are still exposed to tariff-related risks。。。
ComfortDelGro (C52) could be undervalued as public transport demand continues to recover。。。

I will not buy both.
At this point, we do not know the effect of the various tariffs on its business.
I view both seatrium and Sembcorp as vulnerable to the impact of tariffs though Sembcorp might be less vulnerable.
To me, it would be safer to watch what unfolds before deciding to invest in them.
