For 1HFY26, Media Prima posted a profit after tax (“PAT”) of RM10.4 million, representing a 75% increase against RM5.9 million recorded in the same period last year (“1HFY25”), driven by strategic cost management initiatives which led to improved efficiencies and lower operating expenses. Revenue for 1HFY26 stood at RM403.5 million, supported by continued growth in non-advertising revenue.
Highlights from the Group’s 1HFY26 results include a 14% growth in revenue in the non-advertising segment against the comparative period. Content sales revenue increased by 85% to RM10.3 million while the Home Shopping segment recorded a 17% growth in 1HFY26.
For 2QFY26, the Group recorded a PAT of RM8.8 million, a 94% improvement compared to RM4.5 million in the comparative quarter of the previous financial year (“2QFY25”). This quarterly performance was primarily attributed to lower operating expenses achieved through cost management initiatives and a 13% increase in non-advertising revenue. Overall, the Group posted a revenue of RM204.6 million in 2QFY26.
Datuk Seri (Dr) Syed Hussian Aljunid, Group Chairman of Media Prima, said: “The Group’s performance in 2QFY26 demonstrates our resilience amid a challenging operating environment.

The growth in our non-advertising segments—particularly the surge in Content Sales and the steady performance in Home Shopping—is incredibly encouraging. As we complete the final year of our three-year strategic roadmap, we remain dedicated to enhancing content quality and premiumizing our inventory to build sustainable, new revenue streams.”
