True Corporation Public Company LimitedQ2 profit missed estimates due to higher costs, and core profit forecasts were cut.
TRUE shares dropped 2.90% to 13.40 baht after reporting second-quarter 2026 net profit of 6.554 billion baht, about 11% below Asia Plus Securities research estimates, due to higher-than-expected costs and expenses. Core profit came in at 6.735 billion baht, up 3.2% from the previous quarter, while gross margin improved to 35.4% from 26.9% a year earlier. The research team maintained a buy rating with a target price of 16.00 baht but cut its 2026–2027 core profit forecasts by 11%. It also flagged near-term pressure from China Mobile, which is considering selling up to 1% of TRUE, or no more than 345.5 million shares.
