27 February 2026 – TPG Telecom Limited (ASX: TPG) (“TPG Telecom” or “the Company”) today released its financial results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2025 (FY25), highlighting its strongest period of mobile subscriber growth since 2022, the benefits of a simplified cost base, continued capital efficiency, and a strong cash flow outlook.

Iñaki Berroeta, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, said: “2025 was a transformational year for TPG Telecom. We delivered another year of mobile subscriber growth, cementing our position as Australia’s leading challenger telco.

“Our regional mobile network sharing agreement launched in January 2025 has underpinned this performance. It expanded our reach, accelerated our mobile growth and we are confident it will drive higher revenue and improved earnings over coming years.

“We completed the sale of our fibre infrastructure assets and Enterprise, Government and Wholesale (EGW) Fixed - operations, which has reshaped TPG Telecom into a leaner, mobile led business and materially strengthened our financial position.

“We are well-positioned to unlock further value for customers and shareholders. We are targeting continued growth in our share of Mobile Service Revenue, growing EBITDA margins as we keep costs strongly under control, and ongoing growth in free cash flow, earnings per share and return on capital.”

FY25 results summary

TPG Telecom reported a 2.2 per cent increase in FY25 Service Revenue[1] to $4,179 million. Mobile Service Revenue increased 4.2 per cent to $2,423 million, driven by an increase of 228,000 Mobile subscribers, with particularly strong growth in digital-first subscription brands and the EGW business. This was supported by solid growth in Average Revenue per User (ARPU) to $35.51, up 49 cents on FY24.

Mr Berroeta said: “The response to our regional network expansion, targeted promotions and refreshed brand positioning has been very promising. Mobile growth in 2025, including a particularly strong second half, was our strongest since 2022 after borders reopened post-COVID. This was achieved despite a dip in international student numbers as we drove new subscriber growth across major metropolitan and regional centres, while also lowering customer churn.”

Fixed Service Revenue[1] was $1,702 million, an increase of 0.7 per cent. This was supported by continued customer growth in TPG’s Fixed Wireless broadband service and a return to growth in Vision Network subscribers. These gains helped offset industry-wide challenges in the NBN market, which continues to be adversely impacted by high wholesale prices relative to international benchmarks, and intense competition from volume-focused NBN resellers and non-telco providers offering NBN at very low margins.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) was $1,660 million, an increase of 18.4 per cent. This reflected Service Revenue[1] growth and disciplined cost control, enabling TPG Telecom to absorb the cost of both the launch and operation of the regional mobile network expansion. On a Pro Forma[3 ] basis, including the impact of new commercial agreements arising from the Vocus Transaction in all periods, and excluding material one-offs[4] , EBITDA was $1,637 million, an increase of 2.0 per cent and just above the midpoint of the guidance range provided.

Net profit after tax (NPAT) was $52 million, compared with $(140) million in FY24. This reflected EBITDA growth, flat depreciation and amortisation expense, lower bank borrowing costs, and a $45 million non-recurring income tax benefit, more than offsetting the initial impact of the implementation of the handset receivables financing program in October 2025. Underlying NPATA[6] , which excludes the impact of customer base amortisation expense (non-cash) and material one-offs, was $130 million, up 16.1 percent.

Operating Free Cash Flow (OFCF)5 was $1,291 million, up $642 million, primarily reflecting $687 million of benefit from the initiation of the handset receivables financing program, and a $118 million reduction in recurring capital expenditure. Lower ongoing cash capital expenditure is expected to continue to support cash flow growth as TPG Telecom has now passed the peak years of investment to deliver improvements to network and IT systems.

Dividend

The TPG Telecom Board has declared a final dividend of 9.0 cents per share to be paid on 2 April 2026. The final dividend will be franked at 30%, reflecting the availability of franking credits following the commencement of cash tax payments during the year.

Total dividends declared for 2025 were 27.0 cents per share, consisting of 18.0 cents per share of ordinary dividends and the special dividend of 9.0 cents per share paid in November 2025.

On 5 August 2025, TPG Telecom announced a new dividend policy, targeting no change in ordinary dividends in FY25 with an intention to increase dividends over time in line with sustainable growth in profit and cash flow.

Capital management

In August 2025, TPG Telecom announced a transformational capital management plan. The plan consisted of a pro rata Capital Return of $3 billion, consisting of $1.61 per share cash distribution to all shareholders comprised of $1.52 per share Capital Reduction and 9.0 cents per share unfranked special dividend.

The plan, combined with net proceeds generated from the handset receivables financing program, also comprised of a Reinvestment Plan enabling an increase in minority shareholder ownership of the Company and a reduction in bank borrowings of $2.7 billion over the period.

FY26 guidance

For FY26, assuming no material change in operating conditions and excluding material one-offs[4] , TPG Telecom expects:

  • EBITDA to be between $1,665 million and $1,735 million, and

  • Capital expenditure, on an additions basis, to be approximately $750 million.

TPG Telecom expects EBITDA growth to be driven by continued growth in the Mobile business and operating cost discipline.
