TeliaSonera posts small rise in EBITDA, maintains outlook
2013-10-17 09:16:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) TeliaSonera reported a small increase in third-quarter profits thanks to cost reductions and maintained its outlook for growth over the full year. While revenues were down 1.8 percent to SEK 25.38 billion in Q3, EBITDA increased 1.5 percent to SEK 9.42 billion. Excluding currency effects, acquisitions and disposals, sales were stable year-on-year and EBITDA rose 3.8 percent, as a 5.4 percent reduction in costs offset the weak economic climate and cuts to mobile termination rates. The adjusted EBITDA margin increased to 37.1 percent from 35.9 a year ago. Net profit rose 15.1 percent to SEK 4.64 billion, and free cash flow nearly doubled to SEK 7.31 billion, helped by dividends from the company's stake in Russian operator Megafon. The operator's new CEO, Johan Dennelind said he would work on strengthening the group's position in key markets, with an increased focus on innovation and continued cost efficiency. Following the scandal over the company's activities in Uzbekistan, which led to the downfall of the previous management, Dennelind said TeliaSonera was taking further measures to improve governance.

(Telecompaper) Bharti Airtel reported revenues up 9.2 percent year-on-year to INR 202.6 billion for its fiscal first quarter to June. Revenues were up 11.6 percent in its home market India, helped by mobile price increases and growth in mobile data and TV services.

The operator's EBITDA rose 19.3 percent to INR 65.5 billion, and the margin improved to 32.3 percent from 29.6 a year earlier. Net profit dropped to INR 6.9 billion from INR 7.6 billion due to forex and derivatives losses.

Tele2 revenues continue lower in Q2, EBITDA stable
2013-07-18 09:50:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Tele2 reported a continued drop in revenues for the second quarter, as the weaker fixed market and regulatory pressures offset expansion in mobile services. Revenues fell 4 percent to SEK 7.476 billion, of which about half the drop came from negative currency effects. Mobile revenues were up 2 percent from a year earlier to SEK 5.378 billion, led by growth in Kazakhstan and the Netherlands. EBITDA was little changed year-on-year at SEK 1.518 billion, giving a margin of 20 percent, while net profit improved to SEK 327 million from SEK 213 million a year ago. The results exclude the operations in Russia, sold at the start of April. Capex was down slightly at SEK 902 million, and Tele2 lowered its full-year outlook to around SEK 5.7 billion from SEK 6.0 billion. Spending is focused on the 4G network roll-out in the Netherlands, where the company is still finalising its suppliers, and network expansion in Kazakhstan, Sweden and Norway. Tele2 also cut its forecast for revenues in Kazakhstan this year sue to somewhat slower customer growth, but otherwise left its guidance unchanged. Kazakhstan (309,000 net additions) still led the growth in mobile customers, while the Netherlands accelerated to 49,000 net additions in mobile. The total mobile intake was 445,000 in the three months, to finish June with a base of 12.903 million. Fixed broadband customers fell by 12,000 to 1.068 million, and the fixed telephony base lost 113,000 customers to reach 1.172 million.
