News Summary:

Astro pre-recorded its "All Things All Right Cool Da Da New Year Countdown Party" on January 30, 2026, a flagship Chinese New Year countdown celebration that attracted nearly 10,000 attendees. Previously, on December 11, 2025, Astro reported continuing momentum for its third quarter of FY26 (Q3FY26), with revenue rising 2% quarter-on-quarter to RM696 million. This growth was supported by an uptick in advertising, higher licensing income, and continued broadband expansion. This follows the company's earnings report on December 9, 2025, which showed sales of MYR 695.6 million for the quarter ended October 31, 2025, a decrease from MYR 749.7 million a year ago. On the same date, Astro also reported an 81% decline in its 3Q net profit, primarily due to softer subscription and advertising income and higher financing costs.
