SET-listed InTouch Holdings posted a net profit of 11 billion baht in 2020, a drop of 35 million from a year earlier, mainly caused by a decline in profit contribution from telecom operator Advanced Info Service (AIS) as a consequence of the pandemic.
According to InTouch s financial statement reported to the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), AIS s profit contribution to InTouch fell 10% year-on-year to 11.1 billion baht in 2020. The drop resulted from the economic slowdown caused by the pandemic, increasing competition in the telecom segment, as well as a decline in tourists, said Anek Pana-apichon, chief executive of InTouch.
