Keppel T&T could ditch its 19% stake in M1

The possible sale would enable Keppel T&T to recoup $380m capital.

Keppel Telecommunications and Transportation is said to undertake a strategic review of their shareholdings of Singapore telco M1.

According to CIMB, Keppel T&T has a 19% of stake in the telco.

"The move makes sense to us as the M1 stake is deemed a non-core investment for Keppel T&T," the brokerage firm said.

A possible divestment of the M1 stake would enable the group to recoup $380m in capital based on M1’s current price of $2.12. It can also deploy the proceeds to its higher-return core businesses such as data centre and logistics.

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.
