NetLink NBN Trust Q1 profit after tax falls 22% to $18.1m in Q1

The decline was due to higher depreciation from a larger asset base.

NetLink NBN Management Pte. Ltd., the trustee-manager of NetLink NBN Trust, reported a 22% year-on-year (YoY) decline in profit after tax (PAT) to $18.1m for the three months ended 30 June 2026 (Q1 FY2027).

The decline was mainly due to higher depreciation resulting from a larger asset base.

Revenue fell 1.4% YoY, primarily due to lower non-RAB revenue.

The decline in non-RAB revenue was driven mainly by lower installation-related revenue, partly offset by higher ancillary project revenue.

EBITDA fell 4% to $69.1m, reflecting higher operating expenses.

As at 30 June, the trust had 1,519,269 residential connections, 51,459 non-residential connections, 3,603 NBAP connections, and 4,330 segment connections.

Residential gross additions were stable in Q1 FY2027, whilst non-residential gross additions declined, mainly due to end-user churn between requesting licensees.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
