Highlights

Comment from Kjell Johnsen, President and Group CEO of Tele2
“Going into Q3, Tele2 continued focusing on growth and I am pleased to summarize yet another good quarter for our business. Overall, we are delivering a top-line growth of 3%, which represents our 10th consecutive quarter of growth. As we are gradually leaving legacy limitations behind us, we see a positive development in customer loyalty and churn for the Tele2 brand in Sweden.”
 

“A lot of attention was directed towards the important spectrum auctions in Sweden in September. Tele2 secured important spectrum in all the offered bands, and I am particularly pleased to see that the capital efficiency of Tele2 enables us to absorb, pro forma, the spectrum cost that will be payable in two installments in October 2023 and Q4 2025, while maintaining low financial leverage.”
