Hiap Teck records higher earnings as steel prices rise


In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, Hiap Teck said its strong performance was also due to the sharp turnaround of its joint-venture (JV)entity, which contributed RM19.81mil to the group for the quarter as compared to RM4.85mil in the same period a year ago.

PETALING JAYA: Steel company Hiap Teck Venture Bhd has posted a huge jump in its net profit to RM65.93mil for its third quarter ended April 30, from RM4.92mil a year ago on the back of rising steel prices.
