We hosted Maxis in our ASEAN TMT & Fintech Forum. In our view, Maxis’ FCFs

are likely to remain healthy. This should support dividends with the potential for ASEAN TMT

upside. Maxis continues to invest in fiber to capture revenue opportunities from Ranjan Sharma, CFA AC

households, enterprises, and wholesale. Fiber should continue to support growth (65) 6882-1303

in revenues. MSAP could reduce wholesale access costs for fiber broadband. ranjan.x.sharma@jpmorgan.com

• FCFs are supportive of dividends. Maxis is targeting capex of 10-12% of Yen Voo, CFA, CA

sales while its EBITDA margin is at ~41% (2026E JPMe). We calculate

(60-3) 2718 0914

2026/27E FCF of RM1,184/1,539m (after accounting for DNB losses) which yen.voo@jpmorgan.com

more than covers its total dividend of RM1.4bn for FY25. Maxis has paid JPMorgan Securities (Malaysia) Sdn. Bhd. (18146-

RM328m to acquire a stake in DNB this year, which would weigh on its FCF. X)

However, going forward, there might not be further capital investments in Ankur Rudra, CFA

DNB as DNB could raise debt to meet its capital requirements. The excess FCF (65) 6801-3237

could be used to support dividends. J.P.
