GO plc Marks 50 Years of Leadership with Record Profit Growth and Landmark Fibre Milestone in 2025

Malta’s leading telecoms and digital services group posts 31.8% surge in profit, completes True Fibre rollout, and returns €162M+ in dividends over seven years.

GO plc, Malta’s longest-standing and leading integrated telecoms and digital services group, today announced a strong set of financial results for the year ended 31 December 2025, capping a landmark year that coincides with the Group’s 50th anniversary.

Financial Highlights

The Group delivered revenue of €254.4 million, representing growth of 3.9% year-on-year, while EBITDA reached €92 million, up 1.5%. Most notably, profit for the year surged 31.7% to €20.7 million, a result that reflects both the strength of GO’s core business and the positive contributions of its diversified subsidiary portfolio.

In recognition of this performance, the Board is recommending a final net dividend of €0.09 per share, which, combined with the interim dividend of €0.07 per share paid in September 2025, brings the total net dividend for 2025 to €0.16 per share. This continues a track record of consistent shareholder returns, with over €162 million distributed in dividends over the past seven years, clearly indicating that long-term investment and shareholder value go hand in hand at GO.

True Fibre: A National Milestone

2025 saw GO complete the deployment of True Fibre across the entire Maltese Islands — a landmark achievement that places Malta among Europe’s leading nations for fibre-to-the-home connectivity. Alongside this, GO launched its 10G internet product and became the first operator in Malta to offer Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) — ensuring seamless voice connectivity for all customers, including those in areas of limited mobile coverage.

“Completing True Fibre across Malta is not just a network milestone — it is a national one,” said Group CEO Nikhil Patil. “When we committed to this investment, we committed to leaving no one behind. The 31.8% growth in profit we are reporting today is proof that doing the right thing for customers and doing the right thing for shareholders are not competing priorities, they are the same priority. As we mark 50 years since our founding, we enter the next chapter with stronger foundations than ever.”

A Growing Ecosystem Beyond Telecoms

GO’s story in 2025 is about far more than connectivity. BMIT Technologies grew revenues by 8.7%, cementing its role as Malta’s trusted digital infrastructure partner. In October 2025, BMIT completed a strategically significant acquisition of a 49% stake in Malta Properties Company p.l.c. (MPC) for €25.3 million, thus combining technology services with ownership of critical digital infrastructure assets and further diversifying the Group’s revenue base.

Cablenet in Cyprus expanded its mobile offering following the launch of 5G services. GO Energi and AQS recorded their highest-ever energy sales, supporting Malta’s green transition. Cybersift, Connected Care, and Klikk, each fully embedded in the GO family, continued to extend the Group’s reach into cybersecurity, assisted living technology, and digital retail respectively.

Reflecting on 50 Years — Looking Forward with Conviction

2025 marks 50 years since GO’s origins as Telemalta Corporation in 1975. What began as a government-owned telecommunications provider has evolved into a modern, purpose-driven group that touches the lives of individuals, families, and businesses across Malta and Cyprus.

“Half a century after our beginnings, GO today stands as a forward-looking organisation at the forefront of Malta’s digital and sustainable transformation,” said Chairman Lassâad Ben Dhiab. “The foundations we have built, a world-class fibre network, a diversified and growing Group, and a culture of innovation, position us strongly for what lies ahead. The best of GO is still ahead of us.”
