Tan Sri (Sir) Francis Yeoh Sock Ping, PSM, KBE, Executive Chairman of YTL Power, said, “The Group’s performance remained strong for the financial year to date, prompting a higher interim dividend of 4 sen per share. Performance of the power generation segment in Singapore has continued to moderate on the back of lower pool and retail prices, following exceptional results seen last year. In our water and sewerage segment, higher revenue resulted from the increase in price allowed by the UK regulator, as well as revenue contribution from our operations in Malaysia, with profit improving primarily due to the said price increase in the UK, coupled with the decrease in inflationary pressures on index-linked bonds.
“The telecommunication segment recorded better performance in the current period due to higher project revenue, whilst in the investment holding segment, higher revenue was contributed mainly by the consultancy services sub-segment, although profit was impacted by unrealised foreign exchange losses.”
Dato’ Seri Yeoh Seok Hong, Managing Director of YTL Power, said, “On the digital front, we continue to make excellent progress and are well on track to roll out the YTL AI Supercomputer in Q3 this calendar year. This AI cloud infrastructure will provide the foundation for the country’s sovereign AI and will power our very own Malaysian owned LLM, ILMU 1.0. The NVIDIA DGX Cloud will be launched together with ILMU 1.0, an exciting milestone that will kickstart the development of Malaysian AI solutions”.
