0212 GMT - Frencken Group's earnings are likely to be stronger in 2H than in 1H, as orders will probably pick up in the semiconductor segment, RHB Research's Alfie Yeo says in a report. The technology company's volume production for some semiconductor programs are poised to ramp up in 2H, the analyst says. A key client is expected to increase orders following a strong outlook that includes opportunities to support its own customers' capacity-expansion plans. Frencken's backend customers are also bolstering production. RHB Research raises the stock's target price to 3.73 Singapore dollars from S$3.57, with an unchanged buy rating. Shares are 0.75% higher at S$2.69.
