0638 GMT - Singapore Technologies Engineering is set for earnings growth this year, says RHB Research's Shekhar Jaiswal in a research report. The company's international defence business is expected to see robust tailwinds amid elevated geopolitical uncertainty in Europe, the analyst says. Its commercial aerospace segment's margin should widen, driven by higher deliveries of nacelles and passenger-to-freighter converted aircraft, along with increased demand for aviation maintenance services, the analyst says. Its order book stands at S$28.5 billion, providing about three years of revenue visibility. RHB raises the stock's target price to S$5.90 from S$5.20, while maintaining a buy rating. Shares are up 2.7% at S$5.39. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
