Hi-P International Ltd. provides earnings guidance for the third quarter of 2013. The Group expects to report a similar profit as compared to third quarter of 2012, instead of a higher profit as previously guided. This is mainly due to the group expecting an inventory provision of approximately SGD 4.4 million in third quarter 2013 as a result of a decrease in orders from one of its existing customers.

Base on information currently available and barring any unforeseen circumstances, the group expects to report higher revenue but lower profit for second half of 2013 as compared to first half of 2013.
