KUALA LUMPUR: Despite lower project deliveries in the first quarter ended March 31 (1Q20) impacted by travel restrictions, Pentamaster Corporation Bhd’s recovery in earnings in the second half of this year is anticipated to be stronger due to its positive growth prospects amid easing of Covid-19 containment measures.
AmBank Research said the group’s forward looking prospects are driven by growth in its automated test equipment (ATE) segment due to sustained growth for smart sensors and the upcoming 3D sensing technology wave tied to the telecommunications and automotive sectors.
