Fair Value (continued) Financial Instruments Other Than Those Carried at Fair Value There have not been any significant changes in the differences between the carrying amount and fair value of financial instruments carried at other than fair value from the disclosures in note 44(b) of the Group's audited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2024, other than below: As at 30/09/2025 As at 31/12/2024 Carrying amount RM Million Net fair value RM Million Carrying amount RM Million Net fair value RM Million Liabilities Borrowings 2,381.3 2,507.9 3,490.9 3,555.5 1. Review of Performance (a) 3rd Quarter 2025 vs 3rd Quarter 2024 Group Performance The Group's operating revenue for the quarter was RM2,991.9 million, representing a 2.6% increase (RM74.8 million) from RM2,917.1 million in the same period last year. This growth reflects steady performance in core business segments and stronger delivery momentum in 2H25, consistent with the guidance shared. Operating profit before other gains and finance costs (EBIT) increased by 12.9% (RM70.7 million) to RM619.8 million, compared to RM549.1 million in the corresponding quarter last year. The improvement was driven by lower foreign exchange losses on trade balances and deposits, as well as higher other operating income from network modernisation, which enabled the monetisation of unused copper cables. Consequently, the Group's Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (PATAMI) improved by 47.6% (RM221.2 million) to RM686.3 million from RM465.1 million in the corresponding quarter last year. The higher profit was driven by sound performance in the Group's core operation supported by improved fair value gains from the Group's investment in a technology fund, as well as lower tax charges during the quarter. Revenue by Customer Segments Business-to-Consumer (B2C) B2C's operating revenue stood at RM1,415.7 million in the current quarter, a 1.4% increase (RM19.4 million) from RM1,396.3 million in the same quarter last year. Growth was underpinned by continued traction in converged service bundles and targeted device campaigns with cumulative broadband customer base expanded by 1.3% to 3.2 million. Business-to-Business (B2B) B2B recorded operating revenue of RM682.8 million, lower by 3.9% (RM28.0 million) compared to RM710.8 million last year, mainly due to seasonal spending patterns and higher one-off solution revenue in the comparative quarter. The market remains competitive as customers optimise technology spend, with demand shifting towards managed services, cloud, cybersecurity and digital solutions. Carrier-to-Carrier (C2C) C2C's operating revenue grew by 9.0% (RM70.7 million) from RM787.0 million in 3rd quarter last year to RM857.7 million in the current quarter mainly supported by stronger performance in 5G mobile backhaul and data services. Review of Performance (continued) (b) Year-on-Year Group Performance The Group recorded operating revenue of RM8,615.3 million for year-to-date September 2025, compared to RM8,662.0 million in the same period last year, which had included a one-off revenue from an arbitration settlement. Growth in data services and data centre continued to support overall performance, cushioning the impact of a softer consumer market and heightened competition. EBIT remained stable at RM1,810.1 million, compared to RM1,812.7 million last year, reflecting disciplined cost management amid higher 5G access costs and increased customer acquisition and retention expenses. Performance was also supported by higher other operating income from network modernisation, which enabled the monetisation of unused copper cables, as well as lower depreciation and amortisation. The Group's PATAMI increased by 15.9% to RM1,490.5 million from RM1,286.3 million in the corresponding period last year. The improvement was driven by sound performance in the Group's core operation supported by improved fair value gains from the Group's investment in a technology fund, as well as lower tax charges during the period. Revenue by Customer Segments Business-to-Consumer (B2C) B2C recorded operating revenue of RM4,178.9 million for the period ended 30 September 2025, in line with RM4,178.7 million last year. Growth in fixed broadband and bundled services, supported by a 3.2 million broadband customer base, helped offset declines in voice services and ongoing market competition. Business-to-Business (B2B) B2B posted operating revenue of RM2,022.3 million for YTD September 2025, compared to RM2,124.4 million last year, which included a one-off revenue from an arbitration settlement. Excluding this item, underlying growth was supported by customer projects, solution-based offerings, as well as ICT and digital solutions. Carrier-to-Carrier (C2C) C2C recorded operating revenue of RM2,313.0 million for nine-month period ended 30 September 2025, higher by 1.4% or RM31.7 million from RM2,281.3 million reported in the previous financial period, mainly supported by steady performance in 5G mobile backhaul, data centre and data services. Comparison with Preceding Quarter's Results The Group recorded operating revenue of RM2,991.9 million for the quarter, a strong 7.9% increase from RM2,771.9 million in the preceding quarter, reflecting improved delivery momentum in 2H25 as guided, supported by higher contributions from data, internet, and other telecommunication services. EBIT stood at RM619.8 million, marginally lower than RM640.0 million in the previous quarter, mainly driven by higher manpower costs arising from the Group's ongoing manpower optimisation. This was cushioned by other operating income from network modernisation, which enabled the monetisation of unused copper cables. Higher other gains from the Group's investment in a technology fund, together with lower net finance costs from debt settlement and lower tax charges, led to an improved PATAMI of RM686.3 million for the quarter. Prospects for the Current Financial Year Economic Outlook Malaysia's economy strengthened in 3Q 2025, with GDP growing 5.2% 1 , up from 4.4% in 2Q 2025, driven by resilient domestic demand and stable macroeconomic conditions. The Overnight Policy Rate (OPR) remains at 2.75% aimed at sustaining growth momentum amid global uncertainties. Headline inflation edged up to 1.5% in 3Q 2025 from 1.1% in 2Q 2025, reflecting stable cost conditions and continued policy support. While external risk persists, robust domestic consumption and steady investment activity continue to anchor Malaysia's economic growth. Business Outlook TM Group delivered improved performance in 3Q 2025, with revenue increasing by 7.9% quarter-on-quarter, reflecting a stronger performance across core segments supported by subscriber base growth and higher regional connectivity services. B2C continues to advance convergence adoption through enriched content by the recent launch of Unifi TV 2.0 and Smart Home device bundling, stabilising ARPU in the competitive market environment. B2B is seeing a recovery in public and enterprise demand, supported by solution-led offerings as the cluster accelerates its shift towards digital services including cloud, cybersecurity, managed services, AI, and Enterprise 5G. 1 Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) Quarterly Bulletin 3Q 2025 dated 14 November 2025 Prospects for the Current Financial Year (continued) Business Outlook (continued) C2C will continue expanding regional network capacity through participation in international subsea collaborations, reinforcing TM's commitment to resilient digital infrastructure that supports cloud-based and AI-driven innovation. TM's data centre expansions in the Klang Valley and Iskandar Puteri are progressing into the operational phase, enhancing the Group's readiness to meet the surging demand from hyperscalers for cloud services and data hosting, reinforcing its role as a regional digital powerhouse. Our joint venture investment, TM Nxera has commenced construction and remains on track for completion in 3Q 2026, marking another significant milestone in our journey to become a Digital Powerhouse. TM maintains its guidance except for EBIT estimates for the year. We received significant voluntary separation applications from employees. Therefore, the Group is considering these applications as it will have a positive impact to its long-term productivity. Normalising the impact, TM remains on track to achieve the current EBIT guidance. ‌Variance of Actual Profit from Forecast Profit/Profit Guarantee The Group has not provided any profit forecast or profit guarantee in any public document in respect of the 3rd quarter and financial period ended 30 September 2025.
