Interim Report Second Quarter 2018

Stockholm – Tele2 AB, (Tele2), (NASDAQ OMX Stockholm: TEL2 A and TEL2 B) today announces its consolidated results for the second quarter 2018.

CEO comment by Allison Kirkby
“As we move into the second half of this transformative year, our business continues to deliver strong results with growth in both mobile end-user service revenue and adjusted EBITDA. This is our 12th consecutive quarter of delivering results ahead of expectations, and provides us with confidence to raise our full year adjusted EBITDA guidance. In addition to that, we are now confident that the opex and capex synergies from the Com Hem merger in Sweden will be higher than the previously communicated annual target of SEK 450 million.”

Financial highlights

  • Mobile end-user service revenue growth of 5 percent and adjusted EBITDA growth of 12 percent, like-for-like
  • Rolling 12 months operating cash flow growth of 20 percent, with 5 percent growth in our Baltic Sea Challenger businesses
  • Sweden successfully defended mobile revenue and stabilized adjusted EBITDA despite headwinds from Roam Like at Home and low-end price competition
  • Kazakhstan adjusted EBITDA margin of 34 percent, and accumulated repayments of the shareholder loan reaching SEK 0.6 billion
  • 2018 financial guidance upgraded (page 5 in the report)

The report is available on www.tele2.com
