Telefonica increased capital expenditure by 25.8 percent to EUR 1.682 billion, and operating cash flow fell 4.2 percent to EUR 1.937 billion. Net debt was up by EUR 540 million from the end of 2014 to EUR 45.627 billion, equal to 2.73 times EBITDA for the past 12 months. The operator said it had entered a new cycle of organic growth as all businesses were gaining customers, sales and OIBDA, apart from Spain, which had at least returned to customer growth. Telefonica maintained its outlook for over 7 percent revenue growth this year, a drop of no more than 1 percent in the EBITDA margin and accelerating capex to around 17 percent of revenue.
