Interim Report Third Quarter 2022

Stockholm – Tele2 AB (“Tele2”) (Nasdaq Stockholm: TEL2 A and TEL2 B) today announces its consolidated results for the third quarter 2022.

CEO Comment:
- I am pleased that Tele2 is able to continue delivering profitable growth in a challenging external environment. Our strategy of pursuing profitable growth through a good balance between value and volume, and strengthening the quality of our delivery capabilities, is proving helpful in navigating an external environment that presents challenges to both businesses and society-at-large. Our efforts to reduce costs through our Business Transformation Program (BTP) are effectively absorbing some of these inflationary trends and after the current BTP, further efficiency efforts will mitigate negative effects to the business.

- We continue to focus on improvements in reliability, customer insights and rejuvenated business models such as the Viaplay agreement. During the quarter we launched our 5G pricing strategy that builds on Quality of Service-elements such as speed-based pricing with a clear pathway to future value creation. We were proud to announce in July that we are the first company in the Nordics and Baltics and the second in Europe to have our Science Based Targets approved, confirming our commitment to sustainability, one of the four key proof-points for our strategy, says Kjell Johnsen, President and CEO of Tele2.

Highlights

  • End-user service revenue of SEK 5.1 billion increased by 4% compared to Q3 2021 on an organic basis due to strong performance in the Baltics, Sweden B2B, and slight tailwind from roaming.
  • Total revenue of SEK 7.1 billion increased by 6% compared to Q3 2021 on an organic basis.
  • Underlying EBITDAaL of SEK 2.6 billion increased by 2% organically compared to Q3 2021 driven by end-user service revenue growth and cost savings related to the Business Transformation Program (BTP), which were partly offset by higher energy costs.
