M1 could bounce back bigger, better from synergies with Keppel units

RIVAL telcos have already turned in their latest results -- with Singtel posting its lowest annual profits in 16 years on Wednesday - but someone was missing from the party.

M1, now that it's delisted, is no longer obliged to unveil its first-quarter numbers for the three months to March 31.

But there are reasons to believe that post-delisting, the company - which used to be Singapore's smallest listed telco - will enjoy synergies from tie-ups with the various units in the Keppel group under its new, upgraded ownership.
