Its other businesses are environmental consultancy and operation and maintenance.Group Managing Director of Samaiden, Ir. Chow Pui Hee said, "Our performance for FY2022 can be largely attributed to the increase in the number of EPCC projects and the contract value of these projects. We will continue to seek opportunities to secure more EPCC projects given government initiatives in encouraging sustainable energy sources as well as private sector adoption of RE as part of their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) initiatives." "These opportunities cover solar PV systems and also solar and non-solar power plants where we can leverage on our core competency and experience in providing end-to-end services. Beyond the domestic market, we are also seeking opportunities in Southeast Asia where ESG initiatives are also picking up. We announced in August 2022 to incorporate a joint venture company pursuant to the partnership with Aneka Jaringan Holdings Berhad to penetrate the RE market in Indonesia. This latest announcement is in addition to the setting up of a company in Vietnam in 2021 for potential solar projects.""We are cautiously optimistic for FY2023 as we also look to expand our presence through collaborating with our major shareholder, Chudenko Corporation, for projects in Malaysia and the region that will be beneficial for both parties. We are also encouraged by the recent government announcement approving the allocation of 1,200 MW of solar power as well as a new option for businesses to procure RE through the virtual power purchase agreement, which will start in the fourth quarter of 2022 through a quota of 600MW."Samaiden has an outstanding orderbook of RM358.0 million as of 30 June 2022 that will contribute positively to our financial performance over the next three years.

While the domestic economy has so far weathered the challenges on a combination of resilient exports and private consumption, uncertainties remain because of the potential risks from supply-chain disruptions and rising commodity prices leading to inflationary pressure.""We are more neutral as to the prospects for the remaining quarters of the year given these challenges especially with the softening of steel prices and the weaker ringgit. We have increased monitoring of steel prices and related currencies and continue to take proactive measures including negotiating forward contracts, where necessary, as well as prudent inventory management, to reduce any negative impact which may arise. The Group will strive to keep operating costs at manageable levels while enhancing operating capabilities and efficiencies to meet customer requirements and to ensure timely satisfaction of customer orders."Leon Fuat Berhad: [BURSA: LEFU] , https://www.leonfuat.com.my/ Copyright 2022 ACN Newswire.
