NEWS RELEASE For Immediate Release TM Q3 PERFORMANCE IMPROVES ON STRONGER EXECUTION DISCIPLINE KUALA LUMPUR, 24 November 2025 - Telekom Malaysia Berhad ("TM" or "The Group") today announced its financial results for the first nine months of 2025 ended 30 September 2025 (YTD 2025), recording a Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (PATAMI) of RM1.49 billion, up compared to the same period last year. At the same time, the Group registered PATAMI of RM686.3 million in Q3 2025 compared to RM465.1 million in Q3 2024. The higher PATAMI reflects the Group's execution discipline, coupled with one-off items recognised during the quarter. Group revenue grew 2.6% to RM2.99 billion in Q3 2025 compared to corresponding quarter last year, with Earnings before Interest and Tax (EBIT) rose 12.9%, to RM619.8 million, reflecting improved product and services margin, productivity gains and disciplined cost management. Amar Huzaimi Md Deris, Group Chief Executive Officer TM said, "TM's stronger third-quarter results underscore our momentum in transformation and new growth areas. The improved performance reflects our consistent focus on execution discipline and commitment towards value creation. We are executing our strategy with vigour, solidifying our core business, scaling up our sovereign data centre and cloud infrastructure for growth, while embedding AI across our operations to drive long-term competitive advantage. As we move into the final quarter, our priority is to ensure growth in profitability whilst continue to invest strategically in future-ready infrastructure that will catalyse the nation's digital economy, driving inclusivity for all. This is in line with our aspiration of becoming a Digital Powerhouse by 2030 while positioning Malaysia as the digital hub for ASEAN," Amar added. Revenue-generating Investments and Value Creation Capital expenditure stood at 14.9% of revenue, within the Group's full-year guidance, reflecting disciplined execution in strategic investments. The expansion of its data centres in the Klang Valley and Iskandar Puteri has progressed into operational phase with 20 MW additional capacity now available, reinforcing Malaysia's position as a regional hub for hyperscalers and cloud service providers. Together with improved asset utilisation and earnings performance, these disciplined investments have translated into the highest Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) to date of 13.5%. The improved ROIC has contributed positively towards value creation for all stakeholders. Overall, TM maintains a positive outlook for the remainder of 2025. END Segment Analysis Business-to-Consumer (B2C - Unifi): Unifi maintained steady growth, with fixed broadband subscribers rising 1.3% year-on-year to 3.21 million. This was supported by convergence offerings through its UniVerse ecosystem, the launch of a new highly-personalised Unifi TV 2.0 experience, and steady take-up from MSMEs under various initiatives, including IMPAK Biz digital readiness assessment and Usahawan Digital @TM in supporting digital inclusivity, especially for B40 entrepreneurs. These efforts continued to strengthen Unifi's position as a convergence leader for digital lifestyles and preferred partner for local businesses nationwide.
