Pentamaster says 5G to drive test equipment demand, Q1 profit soars

AmInvest Research believes two main growth drivers for Pentamaster this year are smart sensors used in mobile devices and semiconductor components used in electric vehicles (EVs), e.g. power inverters and multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs).

KUALA LUMPUR: Automated testing equipment maker Pentamaster Corp Bhd is optimistic about its prospects this year after the company reported its fourth straight  quarters of rising net profit.

The company demand remained strong considering the size of its outstanding secured orders, it said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today.
