SingTel annual profit more than halves on $2.3 billion impairment hit
(Reuters) -Singapore Telecommunications' annual net profit more than halved on Thursday, hit by a previously announced S$3.1 billion ($2.30 billion) impairment charge, most of which relates to its Australian unit Optus. Optus, Australia's No.2 telecom operator, has been one of Singtel's biggest investments overseas but it has recently drawn public ire over court cases amid a cyber attack in 2022, a massive network outage and falling carriage revenue on increased costs. The S$3.1 billion charge includes a S$2 billion provision on goodwill of Optus while S$470 million relates to Optus' enterprise fixed access network assets.
