The agreement and services to be provided are subject to the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

“The relationship with Eaton in Malaysia is strategic for SIAEC as we have been growing component capabilities and increasing the competitiveness of our component power-by-the-hour product offering. This JV will be an important platform to build capabilities on new-generation aircraft and will complement our existing portfolio of engine and component JVs with other leading original equipment manufacturers,” says Ng Chin Hwee, SIAEC’s CEO.

“This new venture will combine SIAEC’s experience and well-respected position in the region with Eaton’s global reach and existing customer base,” says Nanda Kumar, president, aerospace group, Eaton. “We look forward to building our regional presence to serve customers throughout the product lifecycle in this growing market.”

The transaction is not expected to have a material impact on the net tangible assets per share or the earnings per share of the SIAEC group for the FY2023/2024 ending March 31, 2024.

Shares in SIAEC closed at $2.46 on July 10.
