Sutera Hall Unveils Premier Event and Wedding Venue in Tangerang

Singapore, September 26, 2023: Eos Global Expansion, a global leader in employment, immigration, and payroll solutions, is excited to announce its campaign aimed at supporting companies seeking to expand into Singapore. Under Eos's bespoke Employer Of Record (EOR) solution, clients` chosen staff are hired under Eos` own local entity, so that companies can onboard staff in Singapore in days without setting up their own Singapore subsidiary -&nbsp; all for as little as $280 per month. By acting as a visa sponsor for expat talent, Eos enables companies to overcome limitations faced by many start-ups or companies lacking the local staff levels required to qualify as visa sponsors. This strategy provides businesses with a seamless and cost-effective solution to overcome the challenges of international expansion.

As part of this campaign, Eos is offering free consultations to understand each company's unique expansion vision and explore how EOR can be the key to its success. During these consultations, businesses will gain valuable insights into the comparative benefits of employing through an EOR vs. establishing a local subsidiary, allowing them to make informed decisions and gain a competitive edge in the market.

One of the key challenges when expanding into a new country is navigating the complex immigration process. Eos Global Expansion recognizes this, and to address it, the company offers Employment Pass (EP) sponsorship for foreign talent. With the guidance of immigration professionals, Eos ensures a smooth and hassle-free visa application process. Through this service, Eos is uniquely positioned to secure EPs for large teams of foreign workers, enabling companies to tap into a global talent pool without facing excessive administrative burdens.&nbsp;

To further incentivize companies to take advantage of this opportunity, Eos Global Expansion is offering discounted service fees for a limited time. This campaign, valid until the 31st of December 2023, provides businesses with an additional cost-saving opportunity when expanding their operations into Singapore.&nbsp;

"We are thrilled by the response so far to our campaign aimed at supporting companies looking to expand their operations in Singapore," said Chris Alderson, COO of Eos Global Expansion. ". Chris shared about the challenges faced by companies expanding globally when he set up his first few companies around APAC 25 years ago. Based on that experience, Eos was founded back in 2010 with the goal of empowering growing businesses to overcome these obstacles and enabling them to thrive. Eos supports them from their first employee, scaling with them as their team grows. By providing the local payroll, tax, and labor expertise needed throughout the employment cycle from hiring to termination we free the client to focus on their core business.&nbsp; Clients have loved the model, so Eos has expanded over the years, first covering all of Asia, and now providing services anywhere across the globe. Through our tailored solutions, customizable benefits, and expert immigration support, we strive to make the process smooth and cost-effective for companies of all sizes.

Eos Global Expansion has a strong reputation for its expertise and commitment to providing businesses with reliable and efficient EOR solutions.

Eos Streamlines Employment of Expat or Local Talent in Singapore with Affordable EOR Solutions

NEW YORK — The “Barbie” blockbuster movie created magic at the box office, but the iconic doll’s parent Mattel is bracing for it to make a big difference in the toy aisles.

Mattel Inc. on Wednesday turned in a surprise profit and better sales during the second quarter than analysts expected. But worldwide sales of Barbie to retailers excluding adjustments fell 6 percent in the quarter ended June 30 as promotions were shifted to align with last weekend’s release of the iconic doll’s first live action picture.

Mattel executives told analysts during an earnings call following the release that sales have improved in July, and it expects the movie will have a halo effect on the brand for years to come.

The film — which set an opening weekend record last week for the year — splashed worldwide attention on the doll and boosted shares of the company in the past month. Ahead of the opening, Mattel created a product marketing blitz with more than 100 brands plastering pink everywhere. But it won’t likely see the full benefits of the tie-ins for awhile — and consumers are still spending cautiously on toys.

“We significantly increased free cash flow and continued to gain market share,” said Ynon Kreiz, chairman and CEO of Mattel in a statement. “Importantly, this moment will be remembered as a key milestone in our company’s history with the release of the Barbie movie.”

The movie release comes also at a time when Kreiz, who came to Mattel’s helm in 2018, is turning the toy company into an intellectual property house, with “Barbie” the first of 14 live action movies planned with major studios.

The company made $27.2 million, or 8 cents per share, in the quarter ended June 30. That compares with net income of $66.4 million, or 18 cents per share, in the year-ago period.

Sales fell 12 percent to $1.09 billion from $1.23 billion in the year-ago quarter as retailers trimmed orders for toys amid economic uncertainty.

Analysts were expecting a loss of 3 cents-a-share on sales of $1 billion.

Anthony DiSilvestro, chief financial officer of Mattel, noted that the “retail inventory correction” is behind it.

Net sales and gross billings in the North America segment decreased 18% during the second quarter. Gross billings is a metric that reflects sales to retailers before adjustments.

For the second quarter, worldwide gross billings for the doll category was $441 million, up 10 percent as reported, or 9 percent in constant currency, versus the prior year, primarily driven by Disney Princess and Disney Frozen, and Monster High, partially offset by a decline in Barbie.

Mattel reiterated its financial outlook despite a surprise profit in the quarter.

Mattel stuck to its full-year outlook, which it projects to be flat from last year, and adjusted profit per share between $1.10 and $1.20 per share.

<h1>Mattel posts a surprise profit as Barbie sales fall despite movie hype </h1>NEW YORK — The “Barbie” blockbuster movie created magic at the box office, but the iconic doll’s parent Mattel is bracing for it to make a big difference in the toy aisles.Mattel Inc. on Wednesday turned in a surprise profit and better sales during the second quarter than analysts expected. But worldwide sales of Barbie to retailers excluding adjustments fell 6 percent in the quarter ended June 30 as promotions were shifted to align with last weekend’s release of the iconic doll’s first live action picture.Mattel executives told analysts during an earnings call following the release that sales have improved in July, and it expects the movie will have a halo effect on the brand for years to come.The film — which set an opening weekend record last week for the year — splashed worldwide attention on the doll and boosted shares of the company in the past month. Ahead of the opening, Mattel created a product marketing blitz with more than 100 brands plastering pink everywhere. But it won’t likely see the full benefits of the tie-ins for awhile — and consumers are still spending cautiously on toys.“We significantly increased free cash flow and continued to gain market share,” said Ynon Kreiz, chairman and CEO of Mattel in a statement. “Importantly, this moment will be remembered as a key milestone in our company’s history with the release of the Barbie movie.”The movie release comes also at a time when Kreiz, who came to Mattel’s helm in 2018, is turning the toy company into an intellectual property house, with “Barbie” the first of 14 live action movies planned with major studios.The company made $27.2 million, or 8 cents per share, in the quarter ended June 30. That compares with net income of $66.4 million, or 18 cents per share, in the year-ago period.Sales fell 12 percent to $1.09 billion from $1.23 billion in the year-ago quarter as retailers trimmed orders for toys amid economic uncertainty.Analysts were expecting a loss of 3 cents-a-share on sales of $1 billion.Anthony DiSilvestro, chief financial officer of Mattel, noted that the “retail inventory correction” is behind it.Net sales and gross billings in the North America segment decreased 18% during the second quarter. Gross billings is a metric that reflects sales to retailers before adjustments.For the second quarter, worldwide gross billings for the doll category was $441 million, up 10 percent as reported, or 9 percent in constant currency, versus the prior year, primarily driven by Disney Princess and Disney Frozen, and Monster High, partially offset by a decline in Barbie.Mattel reiterated its financial outlook despite a surprise profit in the quarter.Mattel stuck to its full-year outlook, which it projects to be flat from last year, and adjusted profit per share between $1.10 and $1.20 per share.Shares slipped 2 percent in after market trading on Wednesday after adding 15 cents to $21.32 per share.“While the Barbie blockbuster didn’t happen in Mattel’s Q2, its takeover of pop culture shows the huge potential its IP has, “ said Insider Intelligence Principal Analyst Jeremy Goldman in a statement. ”It also speaks to Mattel’s ability to work with key Hollywood players to bring its properties to life in a media-savvy manner. “
