Revenue from contracts with customers which comprised product sales revenue and service income of Home Service was Baht 17,663.83 million, representing an increase of Baht 440.36 million or up 2.56% year-over-year. The growth was primarily driven by higher revenue recognition of both HomePro and Mega Home business.

Meanwhile, rental and service income amounted to Baht 450.83 million, a decrease of Baht 26.16 million or down 5.48% compared to the previous year. This decrease was due to the cancellation of HomePro Expo, which was typically held at Impact Muang Thong Thani in March.
