KUALA LUMPUR, 25 February 2026 – Telekom Malaysia Berhad (“TM” or “the Group”) recorded a 6.8% increase in revenue to RM3.26 billion for the fourth quarter of 2025 (4Q2025) compared to corresponding quarter last year, driven by stronger momentum across its businesses as the Group closed the year on a firmer footing. Total dividends for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 (FY2025) amounted to 31.0 sen per share, reflecting the Group’s healthy financial position and execution discipline.

Financial Highlights

For FY2025, the Group’s revenue recorded a 1.4% year-on-year growth, marking its steady annual revenue growth despite an intensely competitive operating environment.

Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) for FY2025 stood at RM2.03 billion, while Profit After Tax and Non-Controlling Interests (PATAMI) stood at RM1.71 billion. EBIT and PATAMI for 4Q2025 were RM215.5 million and RM222.5 million, respectively. Adjusting for employee voluntary separation requests, foreign exchange movements and selected non-recurring items, PATAMI for 4Q2025 increased by 72.8% from the same period last year, reflecting stronger underlying performance in the quarter.

As TM accelerates its transition towards a more digital and technology-driven business, it remained attentive to the evolving aspirations of its workforce. During the year, TM received a significant number of voluntary separation requests from employees seeking early retirement or career transitions. As a responsible employer, TM accommodated these requests with a fair and attractive transition package. This is win-win for both parties in the long run – employees can comfortably transition to the next phase of their lives, while enabling TM to progressively align towards its future digitalisation priorities. This underscores the Group’s commitment in ensuring responsible workforce management and upholding the social pillar of its sustainability framework.

In line with the Group’s performance and commitment to delivering sustainable returns to shareholders, the Board declared a second interim dividend of 14.5 sen per share and a special dividend of 4.0 sen per share. Together with the interim dividend of 12.5 sen per share announced at mid-year, this brings the total dividend for FY2025 to 31.0 sen per share. This amounts to approximately RM1.19 billion or about 70% of reported PATAMI, the highest payout ratio since 2018.

For FY2025, capital expenditure was maintained at 16.1% of revenue, within the Group’s full-year guidance.

Reflecting on the results, Amar Huzaimi Md Deris, Group Chief Executive Officer of TM said, “FY2025 was a year where we demonstrated our ability to grow while maintaining strong execution discipline in a competitive environment.

At the same time, we balanced the needs of our various stakeholders. For customers, we strived to meet their evolving connectivity and digital needs, delivering more relevant, converged solutions that support their lives and businesses. For employees, we remained attentive to their aspirations as we evolve into a more digital business. For shareholders, we focused on growing and delivering sustainable returns.”

Nation-building and Responsible Growth

“We further strengthened our role as a national digital enabler, investing in the infrastructure that supports Malaysia’s digital economy and long-term competitiveness. This positions the Group on a stronger footing as we move into the next phase of growth. These investments are aligned with TM’s long-term strategy to support growing demand for connectivity, data centre, cloud, digital and AI services across Malaysia and the region.”

“Sustainability is embedded in our business strategy and how we operate. In 2025, we strengthened our governance and sustainability standing, with measurable improvements across national and global ESG benchmarks. This reflects our commitment to responsible growth, strong governance and long-term value creation,” he concluded.

Outlook

TM’s outlook for 2026 remains positive. TM will continue to focus on disciplined execution of its strategic priorities towards its aspiration of becoming a Digital Powerhouse by 2030, while positioning Malaysia as the digital hub for the region.

The occasion was marked by the presentation of an exclusive, one-of-a-kind 999.9 commemorative gold coin by TM to each SEA Games gold medallist, symbolising TM’s pride in having supported the national squad’s journey to the top of the podium.

The national squad delivered a proud milestone for Malaysian sport, securing two gold medals and three bronze medals, including a long-awaited victory in the Men’s Team Regu event - reclaiming the gold after 34 years. This reflects years of commitment, discipline and perseverance within the team, backed by support from TM as the Official Partner of the national squad.

The appreciation ceremony brought together players, coaches, and officials to acknowledge not only the medals won, but the collective journey behind the success. In addition to the commemorative gold coins presented to gold medallists, TM also presented TM-PSM limited-edition jackets to the wider squad, coaches and PSM officials.

The PSM President, Dato’ Mohd Sumali Reduan said the SEA Games success marked a renewed confidence and chapter for the sport. “Ending a 34-year wait for gold is deeply meaningful for the sport and for the country, and is the result of years of hard work, sacrifice and belief by our athletes and coaches.  We are grateful for the strong partnership with TM, whose continued support has played an important role in strengthening the squad’s preparation and confidence. We hope that this achievement will inspire more young Malaysians to take up the sport, pursue their potential, and one day represent the nation with pride.”

TM Group Chief Executive Officer, Amar Huzaimi Md Deris said, “As a nation builder, TM is proud to uplift Malaysian sepak takraw and contribute to the squad’s journey to reclaim gold after a 34-year wait. Through our continued partnership in a sport deeply rooted in our national heritage, we remain steadfast in advancing its growth while elevating Malaysian sepak takraw’s presence on regional and international stages. This reflects our greater purpose to empower communities through sports that foster unity and inclusivity, while reinforcing TM’s aspiration to become a Digital Powerhouse by 2030.”

The collaboration between PSM and TM was formalised in May 2025, which supports the national squad’s participation in major regional and international tournaments, including the ASTAF Asian Cup, SEA Games, Asian Games and ISTAF World Cup. TM also supports sepak takraw talent development through programmes such as the National Sepak Takraw Development Programme (NSTDP) and Kursus Latihan Asas Sukan (KLAS). Through this partnership, PSM and TM share a commitment to strengthening Malaysia’s sporting ecosystem, nurturing national talent and ensuring grassroots sports like sepak takraw continue to empower unity, pride and aspiration for generations to come.

TM Advances STEM Education at 35 Schools Nationwide, Launches TMFS Programme Article Header
TM
YTM

PENANG, 26 November 2025 – Yayasan TM (YTM), the foundation arm of Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM), today launched the TM Future Skills (TMFS) programme at SMKA (P) AlMashoor, Penang, one of 35 schools nationwide adopted by YTM under the Government’s Sekolah Angkat Malaysia MADANI initiative.

Representing YB Senator Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah bin Azizan, Minister of Finance II, the launch was officiated by YB Lim Hui Ying, Deputy Minister of Finance – marking an important milestone in expanding digital learning opportunities and strengthening students’ participation in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). As an all-girls school, SMKA (P) AlMashoor represents an important opportunity to strengthen female participation in STEM and inspire more young women to pursue future-focused fields. This aligns with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 5 (Gender Equality), particularly in ensuring equal access to education and promoting women’s involvement in science and technology. The school also exemplifies the inclusivity that TMFS aims to deliver across all 35 adopted schools which span remote, island, vernacular and religious schools. This diversity underscores TM’s commitment to ensuring that students, regardless of background or learning environment, gain equitable access to future-ready digital education.

YB Senator Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah bin Azizan, Minister of Finance II, highlighted the importance of strengthening digital readiness in schools to support Malaysia’s long-term economic aspirations. “Initiatives such as TM Future Skills play a meaningful role in preparing students with the digital competencies needed to thrive in an increasingly technology-driven world, particularly for high-value sectors that drive national growth. This is an exemplary model of a collaborative effort between government, industry and schools, and I applaud TM for this programme.”

TMFS provides students with structured exposure to STEM subjects through hands-on learning and practical application, including robotics, 3D design, coding, microcontrollers and AI-assisted learning tools. Beyond STEM modules, TMFS also offers teacher certification, digital and soft-skills training including AI learning and communication skills, as well as capability building activities beyond the classroom, such as sports and academic competitions. These components ensure a more holistic and integrated future skills experience for participating schools.

A central feature of the programme is the TMFS Digital Hub. Equipped with 3D printers, robotics kits, programming and coding sets, the hub enables students to apply classroom concepts through real-world activities. Selected “nucleus” schools such as SMKA (P) AlMashoor will also extend the benefits of their Digital Hubs to surrounding satellite schools, contributing to the programme’s broader reach. Collectively, the TMFS programme is expected to benefit more than 60,000 students nationwide through shared learning, digital training and enhanced teacher readiness.

TM Group Chief Executive Officer, Amar Huzaimi Md Deris, said, “TMFS plays an important role in developing Malaysia’s future digital talent. By expanding this programme to 35 schools nationwide, we are enabling more students to acquire the skills needed to succeed in a digital world. This reflects TM’s greater purpose as a nation builder - to nurture talent, broaden digital participation and support a more inclusive future for all Malaysians, in line with our aspiration to become a Digital Powerhouse by 2030.”

STATEMENT FROM TM REGARDING NG MERS 999

STATEMENT FROM TM REGARDING NG MERS 999 Article Header
TM

KUALA LUMPUR, 20 November 2025Telekom Malaysia acknowledges that some Malaysians were unable to get through to 999 and experienced slower emergency response in the early phase of the NG MERS 999 migration. We understand the concerns this has created for individuals and families in moments of urgency, and rest assured we are treating every incident with the highest level of priority.

Malaysia upgraded the 17-year-old MERS999 platform because it had reached its technical limits and could no longer support the country’s evolving emergency requirements. NG MERS 999 was introduced to enhance accessibility, strengthen multi-agency coordination, and align Malaysia with modern international emergency standards.

Upon this migration, we saw a surge in call volume immediately. While the previous system averaged around 50,000 calls per day, the new NG MERS 999 received close to 70,000 calls per day. About 5% of the calls were genuine emergencies, with the rest being silent and prank calls. However, the number of actual emergency incidents remained unchanged, ranging at an average of 3,500 emergency reports despatched per day.

This sudden spike affected system performance, and we have taken immediate measures to restore the service including increasing server capacity and optimising the servers’ configuration. Additional resources were also mobilised in the call centre to cope with the high-volume calls.

We would like to emphasise that the 999-voice service remains and continues to operate as the primary channel for emergency assistance. SaveME999 mobile application serves as a complementary channel for reaching emergency services. Users can refer to published FAQ in https://999.gov.my website for installation and registration guide.

TM is committed to ensure better services to the public and the nation. We have taken the proactive role to work with all five (5) emergency agencies (Kementerian Kesihatan, PDRM, BOMBA, Angkatan Pertahanan Awam, and APMM) to resolve the issues and ensure seamless end-to-end emergency services.

We appeal to the members of the public to use the 999 service responsibly, as unnecessary or prank calls can prevent the reach of those who are truly in need of real emergencies. Reducing such misuse will greatly enhance the efficiency and responsiveness of the operations.

TM remains fully committed to safeguarding Malaysia’s national emergency lifeline and we assure the public that it has always been our intent to deliver our best. Our teams are working around the clock to resolve these matters and to ensure that every Malaysian can get help quickly and reliably, whether through the 999 voice service or the digital channel.

KENYATAAN BERSAMA KEMENTERIAN KESIHATAN MALAYSIA, KEMENTERIAN KOMUNIKASI DAN TELEKOM MALAYSIA BERHAD Article Header
TM

PUTRAJAYA – Next Generation Malaysian Emergency Response Services 999 (NG MERS 999) merupakan sistem kecemasan generasi baharu negara yang dibangunkan untuk menyediakan perkhidmatan lebih pantas, tepat, moden dan inklusif.

Mula beroperasi sejak 16 November 2025, pembangunan sistem ini adalah hasil kerjasama strategik antara Kementerian Komunikasi (KK), Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM) dan lima agensi kecemasan utama negara, iaitu:

  1. Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM);
  2. Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM);
  3. Jabatan Bomba dan Penyelamat Malaysia (JBPM);
  4. Angkatan Pertahanan Awam Malaysia (APM); dan
  5. Agensi Penguatkuasaan Maritim Malaysia (Maritim Malaysia).

KKM, KK dan TM telah menerima laporan berkaitan perkhidmatan ambulans. Walaupun insiden tersebut adalah terpencil, perkara ini ditangani secara serius dan dengan kadar segera kerana setiap panggilan kecemasan melibatkan nyawa dan kesejahteraan rakyat.

Semakan teknikal oleh TM mengesahkan bahawa sistem NG MERS 999 beroperasi seperti biasa, termasuk prosedur penyaluran kes menggunakan prinsip “nearest available” bagi memastikan aset kecemasan terhampir dapat digerakkan secepat mungkin.

Bagi pihak KKM, usaha memperkukuh respons di lapangan terus dipertingkatkan melalui penambahan ambulans, penyusunan semula penugasan petugas di kawasan strategik, serta penglibatan badan sukarela seperti Bulan Sabit Merah Malaysia, St. John Ambulans Malaysia dan pertubuhan bukan kerajaan (NGO) tempatan sebagai sebahagian daripada keupayaan respons kecemasan negara. Penilaian berterusan terhadap keupayaan koordinasi dan ketersediaan aset juga sedang dilaksanakan bersama agensi-agensi berkaitan.

Pada masa sama, Perkhidmatan 999 melalui panggilan suara kekal berfungsi sepenuhnya dan boleh digunakan seperti biasa.

Aplikasi SaveME999 pula berfungsi sebagai saluran tambahan, khususnya untuk pengguna yang memerlukan ciri komunikasi melalui teks, video dan multimedia, selaras dengan usaha meningkatkan keberkesanan dan keterangkuman respons kecemasan negara.

TM akan terus memperkukuh keupayaan sistem dan aplikasi NG MERS 999, termasuk perisian serta proses teknikal yang berkaitan, bagi memastikan prestasi dan pengalaman operasi yang lebih lancar untuk semua agensi kecemasan.

TM AND GOVT INTRODUCE NEXT-GEN 999 EMERGENCY SYSTEM

TM AND GOVT INTRODUCE NEXT-GEN 999 EMERGENCY SYSTEM Article Header
TM

KUALA LUMPUR, 16 November 2025 – Telekom Malaysia Berhad (TM), in collaboration with the Ministry of Communications, has made available the Next Generation Emergency Response Services 999 (NG MERS 999), representing a significant enhancement to the nation’s emergency communications infrastructure.

This milestone follows the 2024 agreement between both parties, reinforcing their commitment to deliver smarter, faster and more inclusive emergency services across the country.

A key highlight is the enhanced SaveME 999 mobile application, which now provides Malaysians, including people with special needs and assistance, with direct access to 999 operators through video, text, and multimedia-based distress alerts. This places Malaysia among the first in the world to operationalise nationwide inclusive digital emergency access at large scale. Members of the public may continue to call 999 as usual. The SaveME 999 app serves as an additional option, particularly for those who require accessible features.

The NG MERS 999 is a fully digital, integrated platform that replaces the legacy MERS 999 system which is also developed and operated by TM. The upgraded system enhances operational efficiency, optimises resource deployment, and significantly improves response times across more than 800 locations nationwide.

Amar Huzaimi Md Deris, TM’s Group Chief Executive Officer, said: “TM is proud to stand alongside the Ministry of Communications in delivering this vital national infrastructure that protects lives and strengthens our resilience. NG MERS 999 represents a leap forward in Malaysia’s digital transformation, harnessing AI and multi-channel communications to empower faster, smarter and more inclusive emergency response for all.”

He added, “Inclusivity sits at the heart of NG MERS 999. The enhanced SaveME 999 and the Responder App put critical technologies directly in the hands of users and responders, enabling a faster and more optimised emergency response. This reflects TM’s commitment to building a more connected, secure and digitally resilient Malaysia on its journey to becoming a Digital Powerhouse by 2030”

Malaysia is setting a new benchmark in emergency response with the adoption of Advanced Mobile Location (AML) for precise caller geolocation, a unified five-agency 999 platform, and strengthened digital accessibility for PwDs. These capabilities mirror, and in several areas exceed, implementations seen in advanced emergency systems internationally.

 

Advanced Technology and Inclusivity

Developed and operated by TM, the NG MERS 999 integrates AI-powered analytics, geolocation services, and secure sovereign cloud hosting to streamline emergency call management and enable real-time decision-making.

Two key applications – SaveME 999 (for the public to send multimedia alerts with GPS data) and the Responder App (for real-time tracking and coordination among emergency agencies) – ensure faster response and improved outcomes in life-critical situations.

Aligned with the NG112 framework and built to stringent ISO-certified benchmarks, NG MERS 999 reinforces Malaysia’s public safety infrastructure and readiness for the digital future.

With NG MERS 999, every emergency call is now met with greater speed, accuracy, and care — reinforcing Malaysia’s position as a leader in digital public safety innovation.
