Tuas's M1 Acquisition Could Be Approved Before Christmas -- Market Talk

Dow Jones

Nov 03, 2025

0344 GMT - Citi analysts reckon Tuas's proposed acquisition of M1 could be approved by Singapore regulators before Christmas. They point to comments by Keppel, the current owner of the M1 telecommunications provider, hoping to complete a sale by the end of the year. They also observe that M1 has reduced the price of some postpaid plans by up to 70%. They tell clients in a note that this shows M1 is already implementing Tuas's value-led strategy to stimulate a turnaround in customer growth. Regulatory approval could come swiftly after the Nov. 7 deadline for submissions on the deal, they say. Citi has a buy rating and A$9.95 target price on Tuas shares, which are up 3.3% at A$7.26.
