NetLink NBN profit climbs 19.7% YoY to $109.3m in FY23

Its 5.24 Singapore cents DPU is the highest the Trustee-Manager distributed since listing.

SGX-listed NetLink NBN Trust's profit after tax grew 19.7% year-on-year to $109.3m for the full fiscal year that ended on 31 March.

The trust's revenue rose 6.8% YoY to $403.5m from $377.6m due to higher income across all categories of services except the central office and the ducts and maintenance holes services.

Due to the growing revenue, lower staff costs, and operating expenses, its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased 10.5% YoY to $295m from $266.9m.

Meanwhile, its distribution per unit (DPU) climbed 2.1% YoY to 5.24 Singapore cents from 5.13 Singapore cents. Tong Yew Heng, NetLink NBN CEO, stated that the DPU for March is "the highest NetLink has distributed since listing."

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
