  2. Valuation of Property, Plant and Equipment

    There were no material changes to the valuation of property, plant and equipment since the financial year ended 31 December 2024.

  3. Material events subsequent to the end of the current financial quarter

    On 12 February 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of 359,893 ordinary shares in the share capital of AVM Cloud Sdn Bhd ("AVM") from all remaining minority shareholders of AVM ("the Vendors"), for a purchase consideration of RM32,002,785 in accordance to a Sale and Purchase Agreement entered into between the Company and the Vendors dated 5 December 2025 (the "SPA"). The SPA was entered into pursuant to an option eligible for exercise by the Vendors in Quarter 1 2026 to sell their shares in AVM to the Company, as provided for in the Shareholders Agreement between AVM and its then shareholders dated 7 January 2021. Consequently, the Company's equity interest in AVM has increased from 67% to 100%, thereby rendering AVM a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

    There were no other items, transactions or events of a material and unusual nature from 31 December 2025 to 19 February 2026 (being the latest practicable date) that would have a substantial effect on the financial results of the Group.

  4. Changes in the composition of the Group during the financial year ended 31 December 2025
    1. On 21 February 2025, the Company's indirect fully owned subsidiary TIME Global Connect International Pte Ltd incorporated a fully owned subsidiary, TIME Global Connect (Thailand) Limited, which is primarily engaged in the provision of voice, data, video and image telecommunication services through its domestic and international network.

    2. On 4 April 2025, the Company participated in a capital call by its jointly controlled company AIMS Data Centre Holding Sdn Bhd ("AIMS"), by subscribing to 12,240 new ordinary shares in the share capital of AIMS for RM20,945,700. The subscription resulted in the Company maintaining its shareholding in AIMS at 51% of the issued ordinary shares and its effective interest at 30%.

      On 24 April 2025, the Irredeemable Convertible Preference Shares ("ICPS") in AIMS held by DB Arrow Pte Limited ("DBAPL") were converted into ordinary shares in accordance with the conditional share sale and purchase agreement with DBAPL ("SPA 1") on 21 November 2022. As a result, the Company's shareholding in the issued ordinary shares of AIMS diluted from 51% to 30%. The Company's effective interest in AIMS remains unchanged at 30%.

      On 25 June 2025 and 25 November 2025, the Company further participated in the second and third tranches of capital calls by subscribing to 7,008 and 12,240 new ordinary shares in the share capital of AIMS for cash consideration of RM11,992,440 and RM20,945,700, respectively. Following these subscriptions, the Company's equity interest in AIMS remained unchanged at 30% of the issued ordinary shares.

      1. Changes in the composition of the Group during the financial year ended 31 December 2025 (continued)
    3. On 9 May 2025, the Company completed the subscription of 312,500 new redeemable convertible preference shares ("RCPS") for RM2,500,000 in its subsidiary Charge N Go Sdn Bhd ("CNG"), following the fulfilment of performance conditions as set out in the Subscription Agreement dated 14 December 2023 between the Company, Thiruchandran A/L Thiruchelvam and CNG ("Subscription Agreement") and the Subscription Letter dated 24 April 2025 entered into between the Company and CNG.

On 28 July 2025, the Company completed the subscription of a further and final tranche of 312,500 new RCPS in CNG for RM2,500,000 subsequent to the fulfilment of performance conditions as outlined in the Subscription Agreement and the Subscription Letters dated 24 April 2025 and 22 July 2025 entered into between the Company and CNG. Following the completion of both tranches, the Company's effective equity interest in CNG remains unchanged at 51%.

There were no other changes in the composition of the Group during the financial year ended 31 December 2025.

  3. Fair value information

    The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables reasonably approximate fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these financial instruments. Accordingly, the fair values and level of the fair value hierarchy have not been presented for these financial instruments.

    Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the input used in the valuation technique as follows:

    • Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical financial assets or liabilities that the Group can access at the measurement date.

    • Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the financial assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

    • Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

      The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value and financial instruments not carried at fair value for which fair value and carrying value are as disclosed.

    The effective tax rate of the Group for the current quarter and twelve months to 31 December 2025 is lower than the statutory tax rate of 24% mainly due to deductibility of expenses.

  5. Status of corporate proposals not completed as at the latest practicable date

  6. Borrowings

    The Group's borrowings were primarily utilised to finance its working capital requirements. The borrowings comprise a floating rate facility, which bears interest at approximately 5.30% per annum.

  7. Off-balance sheet financial instruments

    The cash and cash equivalents of the Group as at 31 December 2025 did not include bank balances amounting to RM9,081,000 (31 December 2024: RM10,041,000) held in trust by the Group for consortium members of the Asia Pacific Gateway submarine cable project. These balances are maintained for the purpose of settling payments to suppliers in accordance with the terms of the related supply contract.

    Other than as stated above, the Group does not have any off-balance sheet financial instruments as at the latest practicable date of this report.

  8. Material litigation

    The Company and its subsidiaries have no outstanding material litigation as at 19 February 2026, being the latest practicable date.

  9. Discontinued Operations

    On 20 April 2023, the Company announced the completion of the transactions below in relation to the strategic partnership for the AIMS Data Centre business via the partial divestment by the Company of shares in AIMS and AIMS Data Centre (Thailand) Limited ("AIMS TH") to DBAPL, a portfolio company managed by DigitalBridge Group, Inc. ("DigitalBridge"):

    1. SPA 1 for the divestment of 49% of the issued ordinary shares ("OS") and 100% of the ICPS of AIMS with the provisional purchase price 1 fixed at RM2,025.79 million ("Transaction 1"). The proceeds have been received from DBAPL (which includes security deposit) on even date;

    2. a conditional share sale and purchase agreement with DBAPL (as the purchaser) and Symphony Communication Public Company Limited ("SYMC") (being an associate of the Company, and the other seller) ("SPA 2"), for the divestment of the Company's 21% of the issued shares of AIMS TH for the provisional purchase price 2 fixed at THB27.30 million (equivalent to RM3.49 million) ("Transaction 2"). The proceeds have been received from DBAPL on even date,

    collectively referred to as the "Transactions".

    On 19 October 2023, an additional consideration of RM10.34 million was received. Thus, total final consideration received for the Transactions amounted to RM2,039.62 million.

    The proceeds raised from the Transactions have been fully utilised as of 30 June 2025. Relevant details regarding the utilisation have been disclosed in the quarterly report for the year ended 30 June 2025.

    Accordingly, pursuant to the disposal and reference to Note 12 (ii), the Company's shareholding in the issued ordinary shares of AIMS and its effective interest in AIMS remains unchanged at 30%.

    As the Company no longer control AIMS and AIMS TH respectively pursuant to the disposal, the asset and liabilities of AIMS and AIMS TH have been deconsolidated from that date. The Company therefore presents and discloses the financial results of AIMS up to 20 April 2023 as discontinued operations and thereafter as a share of profit from jointly controlled entity.

    The Group reported consolidated revenue of RM464.8 million in Q4 2025, which is RM11.0 million or 2.4% higher compared to RM453.8 million recorded in Q3 2025. The increase in consolidated revenue was mainly driven by growth in data and voice revenue.

    The Group's consolidated profit before tax in Q4 2025 amounted to RM123.8 million, which is RM3.9 million lower than the consolidated profit before tax of RM127.7 million in Q3 2025. The consolidated profit before tax decreased mainly due to:

    1. higher net foreign exchange loss by RM5.6 million (Q4 2025: RM10.3 million, Q3 2025: RM4.7 million);

    2. impairment of investment in associate of RM32.9 million; and

    3. lower share of profit from associates and jointly controlled entity by RM1.8 million.

    partially offset with higher overall revenue, interest income and lower impairment of submarine cable of RM22.6 million in Q3 2025.

    The Group reported consolidated revenue of RM464.8 million in Q4 2025, which is RM34.2 million or 7.9% higher compared to RM430.6 million recorded in Q4 2024. The increase in consolidated revenue was mainly contributed by higher revenue from data.

    The Group recorded consolidated profit before tax of RM123.8 million for the current quarter, which is RM30.8 million lower than the consolidated profit before tax of RM154.6 million recorded in Q4 2024. The decrease in the Group's Q4 2025 profit before tax was mainly due to the following:

    1. higher net foreign exchange loss of RM10.3 million as compared to a net foreign exchange gain of RM37.5 million in Q4 2024;

    2. lower interest income by RM5.2 million;

    3. lower share of profit from associates and jointly controlled entity by RM16.3 million; and

    4. impairment of investment in associate of RM32.9 million.

    partially offset with higher overall revenue and impairment of submarine cable of RM45.5 million in Q4 2024.

The Group reported consolidated revenue of RM1,792.8 million in 12M 2025, which is RM102.6 million or 6.1% higher compared to RM1,690.2 million recorded in 12M 2024. Revenue growth was mainly driven by higher data revenue, partially offset by declines in cloud and other services, and voice.

The Group recorded a consolidated profit before tax of RM541.4 million, which is RM15.2 million or 2.9% higher than RM526.1 million in 12M 2024. The increase in the Group's 12M 2025 profit before tax was mainly due to the following:

  1. higher overall revenue in 12M 2025;

  2. lower impairment of submarine cable in 12M 2025 by RM22.3 million; and

  3. lower net foreign exchange loss by RM2.2 million (12M 2025: RM31.3 million, 12M 2024: RM33.5 million)

partially offset by lower interest income, lower share of profit from associates and jointly controlled entity, higher depreciation and amortisation of property, plant and equipment and right-of-use assets, and impairment of investment in associate of RM32.9 million.
