ST Engineering stock rises in Singapore as MRO upgrade and satellite plans keep earnings in focus

Singapore, Feb 3, 2026, 15:19 SGT — Regular session

  • Shares of Singapore Technologies Engineering climbed roughly 1.2% in afternoon trading, buoyed by new developments in aviation and space. (SG Investors)
  • ST Engineering has boosted its aircraft maintenance services in Singapore and unveiled plans for new satellite and airshow products. (The Edge Singapore)
  • The next major event for investors is the full-year results, set for release before the market opens on Feb 27. (SGX Links)

Shares of Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd, or ST Engineering, climbed 1.2% to S$9.92 by 3:08 p.m. in Singapore. (SG Investors)

The stock remains close to the highs of a steep climb that more than doubled its value over the last year, despite a bumpy few weeks in early February. (Trading Economics)

Why it matters now: investors are shifting focus from headline wins to actual delivery — margins, cash flow, and how fast new platforms turn into steady revenue. The company’s FY2025 report card, due later this month, is a key near-term trigger. (SGX Links)

On Tuesday, ST Engineering announced an upgrade to its maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) centre in Singapore, now adding airframe work alongside nacelle (engine casing) services. Jeffrey Lam, president of commercial aerospace at ST Engineering, described the move as creating a “one-stop experience” designed to streamline maintenance scheduling and coordination for operators.

The aviation focus took center stage Monday at the Singapore Airshow 2026, with the company unveiling a bigger unmanned cargo drone alongside fresh aerospace and defence systems. Group COO Mervyn Tan highlighted that the event emphasized “AI, autonomous technologies and secure digital platforms,” targeting customers already integrating these innovations. (The Edge Singapore)

At Space Summit 2026, the company revealed plans to design and build satellites in Singapore. Among them is a laser-communications demonstrator satellite set for launch in the latter half of 2026, alongside a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) constellation designed to capture images through clouds and at night. Low Jin Phang highlighted that upcoming satellites will be “three times lighter” than previous versions without sacrificing performance. (The Edge Singapore)

Singapore is gearing up with its own space goals. The city-state announced it will launch the National Space Agency of Singapore on April 1, unveiling a series of partnerships focused on climate monitoring, secure communications, and next-gen connectivity. (The Edge Singapore)

The stock has moved within a tight range of S$9.83 to S$9.95 on Tuesday, per market data. That upper bound hits its declared 52-week high, offering minimal buffer if sentiment sours. (Investing)

New projects bring lengthy lead times and execution risks. Certification deadlines for new aircraft often slip, satellite timetables shift, and defence procurement rarely follows a straight path. Any cautious guidance could weigh on a stock that’s already seen a sharp re-rating.

The next step is set: a Singapore Exchange filing states the company will report FY2025 results on Feb 27 before the market opens. An analyst and media briefing will follow at 11:00 a.m. Singapore time. (Shareinvestor)
