SIA net profit falls nearly 68% in H1

The board declared a $900m three‑year special dividend plan.

Singapore Airlines Group (SIA) posted net profit of $238.5m for H1 FY2526, down 67.8% from a year earlier. 

Its quarterly net profit in Q2 was $52.4m, a fall of 81.9%, according to a news release.

The decline was driven by the share of losses from associates, mainly Air India, a swing from net interest income to net interest expense, and the absence of a prior‑year accounting gain from the disposal of Vistara.

Operating profit stood at $802.9m, up 0.9%, but the net line was weighed down by financing and associate items.

The Board declared an interim dividend of 5c per share and an interim special dividend of 3c, payable on 23 December 2025. It also announced a special dividend package of 10 cents per share annually over three years, totaling about $900m. Basic earnings per share were 7.9 cents.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
