CORPORATE UPDATE & OUTLOOK

For 9MFY2016, TEE's total outstanding order book stood at S$306 million, of which more than half of the orders are attributed to Singapore-based projects. Commenting on TEE's Engineering business, Mr Eric Phua, Deputy Group Managing Director said: "While the engineering team is focused on delivering ongoing projects, we are also conscientiously and selectively pursuing projects in Singapore and the region. Based on our established track record, we are confident of securing new projects through private and public tenders. We continue to focus on bidding for projects with high-value and complex engineering components under the M&E division, as well as fast turnaround mission critical rebuilding projects under the Building and Construction division."

For the Real Estate business ("TEE Land"), TEE Land does not foresee any changes in the expectation of trends and competitive conditions in the markets it operates in. In Singapore, sales of its latest development, 183 LONGHAUS, has crossed 50% for the residential units since its soft launch in February 2016. As for Malaysia, TEE Land's Third Avenue mixed- development project in Cyberjaya, Malaysia, sales of the residential units has hit 70% and construction of Third Avenue is 20% completed.

On 5 April 2016, TEE Land's associated company, Chewathai Public Company Limited ("Chewathai"), was successfully listed on the Market for Alternative Investment of the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Pursuant to the IPO, Chewathai raised net proceeds of THB 398.65 million (approximately S$15.39 million based on an exchange rate of S$1 to THB 25.91), which will be utilised to finance project development, repay loans and as working capital. The offer price of Chewathai IPO shares was issued at THB1.60 per share and it closed at THB2.02 on the first day of trading. With the completion of the IPO, TEE Land Group will retain a shareholding interest of approximately 31.9% in Chewathai immediately after the IPO.
