  • elevated direct costs on ancillary projects, and
  • rising installation costs.

A weaker quarter.

  • For 2QFY26, revenue was slightly higher (+2% q-o-q, +0.4% y-o-y) on the back of increased ancillary project revenue (+19% q-o-q, +26% y-o-y) and co-location revenue growth (+5% q-o-q, +12% y-o-y). This helped cushion the decline in overall connections revenue (-0.2% q-o-q, +0.9% y-o-y) driven by higher churn in the non-residential segment.
