Key numbers
The price history in our source data for this company failed a basic check (often a split, bonus or scheme not yet adjusted), so market cap, the 52-week range, price change, the price chart and ratios that use the price or share count (such as P/E, P/B, dividend yield, EV/EBITDA and PEG) are hidden until it is corrected. The latest exchange close and filed results are unaffected.
Last 12 months to Jun 2026, Consolidated. "Sector median" = middle value of 11 companies in Telecom - Equipment & Accessories (P/E median leaves out loss-making companies). Tap ? for what a number means.
