Singtel’s net profit jumps 23.8% YoY to $734m in Q3

This is despite a decline in the telecom's consolidated operating revenue.

Singtel’s net profit grew 23.8% YoY to $734m in the third quarter of the financial year that ended 31 December 2021.

This is despite a decline in the telecommunication's consolidated operating revenue; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA); and earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) by 7.7%, 1.7% and 4.3% respectively.

The company attributed the drop in its operating revenue, EBITDA, and EBIT on the lower national broadband network (NBN) migration revenue and equipment sales as well as the minimal jobs supper scheme (JSS) credit.

Excluding these factors, EBITDA and EBIT grew by 6.1% and 25%, respectively.

Meanwhile, Singtel’s Singapore market also saw a decline in its operating revenue by 5.2% on the back of “lower mobile equipment sales revenue due to supply constraints caused by global chipset shortages, lower mobile connections and longer handset replacement cycles.”

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.
