The company operates through two segments, HDD Components and Precision Metal Stamping Components with HDD Components being the core segment at 84.5% and 73.7% of FY16 group revenue and profit before tax respectively. The company has factories in Zhuhai, China and Johor and Penang, Malaysia. After Armstrong was delisted in 2012, Cheung Woh, to my knowledge, remains as the only listed supplier of HDD components in the Singapore stock market.
