The results were in line with a forecast of a 332 million baht loss by Kim Eng Securities.
For the whole of last year, Shin Corp made a net profit of 5.65 billion baht, more than five times higher than the 960 million baht a year earlier.
Shin Corp, valued at US$1.6 billion on the Thai bourse, comprises more than 20 companies in the wireless, satellite, Internet and media sectors.
Advanced Info Service, Thailand's largest mobile operator with a market share of about 50 per cent and 43 per cent owned by Shin Corp, contributes more than 80 per cent of Shin Corp's profit.
AIS reported a 92 per cent fall in quarterly earnings due to the weak economy and a goodwill write-off for a subsidiary's network. -- Reuters
