Following a resilient performance in FY2024, Axiata declared a second interim dividend of 5.0 sen per share in February 2025, culminating in a total annual dividend of 10.0 sen per share for the year ending on 31 December 2024. This total includes an initial interim dividend of 5.0 sen.

The Board maintains its commitment to the established dividend policy, under which the Company aims to distribute dividends amounting to a minimum of 30% of its normalised Group Profit After Tax and Minority Interests (PATAMI), while also seeking to gradually increase the dividend payout ratio, taking into account various considerations such as the Group’s future prospects, capital requirements and surplus, strategies for growth and expansion, considerations for non-operational items, and other factors deemed pertinent by the Board.

  1. DPS - Dividend per share
  2. DPR – Dividend payout ratio excluding special dividend
  3. The Group announced lower DPR in 2016 and 2017 based on two reasons. First, for prudent reasons, to mitigate against impacts of volatile forex and regulatory risk. Second, for strategic reasons, to enable 4G/data leadership investments as well as for possible mergers and acquisitions (M&A) exercises in the areas of market consolidation. Axiata reverted to DPR of 85% in 2018
