Shah Alam, 23 May 2025 – TIME dotCom (Time or the Group) recorded steady performance for the quarter ended 31 March 2025, reflecting continued resilience in a dynamic market landscape. For the period under review, the Group reported consolidated revenue of RM428.6 million, a 2.6% increase year-on-year, supported by sustained demand for data and connectivity solutions and driven by the Retail segment.
Time posted a consolidated profit after tax from continuing operations of RM112.3 million for the quarter.
