Shares of SU Group (SUGP) surged on Tuesday after the security services provider was awarded a crucial public-sector contract for an under-construction facility that will serve as the Hong Kong Leisure and Cultural Services Department’s primary hub.
At the time of writing, SUGP stock was up 15% in premarket trade.
SU Group expects the latest award to serve as a pathway to securing larger public-sector tenders and aligns with its approach to scaling its business. The company will leverage its expertise in extra-low-voltage security solutions to help manage the facility's safety, security, operational efficiency, and long-term resilience.
"We are proud to support one of Hong Kong's most important cultural infrastructure projects with a highly integrated ELV security solution," said Dave Chan, CEO of SU Group. "In markets where reliability, technical expertise, and execution quality are essential, continued wins in large-scale public-sector projects validate our platform and support our long-term growth strategy.”
As part of the security ecosystem, SU Group has planned to deploy a network of 336 high-definition CCTV cameras; 435 public address systems; 50 intercom systems; 28 location e-Call systems; and 100 video-enabled door access control systems at the upcoming facility.
Moreover, the company will also install a communal aerial broadcast distribution system to strengthen network signals throughout the property, and a water leakage detection system spread across 80 locations inside.
The contract was valued at more than $1 million, which the company expects to recognize by the end of the year.
