Revenue for the quarter fell to RM5.79 billion from RM6.15 billion a year before due to adverse impacts from the recent COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown measures across the operating companies’ markets. For a six-month period, Axiata’s net profit shrank to RM268.12 million from RM945.72 million year-on-year while revenue eased to RM11.83 billion from RM12.10 billion.
