Singtel net profit rises fivefold in FY2025

 The growth was driven by a net exceptional gain of $1.55b.

Singtel’s FY2025 net profit rose fivefold to $4.02b, driven by a net exceptional gain of $1.55b from the partial divestment of its Comcentre headquarters, compared to a net exceptional loss a year ago.

Underlying profit grew by 9% to $2.47b, driven by robust performances from Optus, NCS, and regional associates Airtel and AIS.

Optus’ operating revenue rose by 1%, driven by improved mobile performance and good cost management, whilst NCS’ operating revenue increased by 5%, led by Gov+ business growth on the back of demand for cloud, data, and digital services. 

Digital InfraCo’s operating revenue rose by 5%, mainly driven by Nxera data centre business' non-recurring customer reservation fee, utility pass-through, and price increases.

In addition, regional associates’ pre-tax contribution grew by 7%, mainly driven by strong performances from Airtel and AIS.

Meanwhile, Singtel Singapore’s operating revenue fell by 2%, primarily due to the continued decline in legacy carriage services.

The board has proposed a final one-tier tax-exempt ordinary dividend of $0.100 per share, totalling approximately $1.65b. Combined with the interim core dividend of $0.056 per share, the total core dividend amounts to $0.123 per share.

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.
