04.05.06 07:57 Marked=OB TEL TELENOR ASA FIRST QUARTER 2006 RESULTS
In the first quarter of 2006, Telenor`s revenues increased by 43 per cent compared to the first quarter of 2005, reaching NOK 21.9 billion. The underlying revenue growth was 15 per cent. Profit before taxes was NOK 5.9 billion. During the quarter, the total number of mobile subscriptions increased by 7 million, reaching 90 million.
HIGHLIGHTS FIRST QUARTER 2006:
Revenue growth of 43% - underlying growth of 15% EBITDA margin before other income and expenses increased from 33% to 36% Increased ARPU in mature mobile markets EBITDA margin of 43% in Telenor Mobile Norway and 33% in Fixed Norway Financial gain from sale of shares in Inmarsat of NOK 1.8 billion.
Outlook for 2006
Based upon the strong results for the first quarter of 2006, the outlook for the full year has been evaluated and revised compared to the report for the fourth quarter of 2005: The strong growth in mobile subscriptions during 2005 gives Telenor a solid foundation for further growth in revenues. We expect a growth in reported revenues of around 30%.
We expect a continued high growth in EBITDA, in particular driven by the international mobile operations. Telenor will continue previously introduced initiatives and identify new means of improving cost efficiency. We expect the EBITDA margin before other income and expenses for 2006 to be above 34%.
We expect high capital expenditure to continue, and capital expenditure as a proportion of revenues is expected to be above 20%. Capital expenditure is expected to continue to be driven by high subscription growth within Telenor’s mobile operations in emerging markets.
A growing share of Telenor’s revenues and profits is derived from operations outside Norway. Currency fluctuations may to an increasing extent influence the reported figures in Norwegian Krone. Political risk, including regulatory conditions, may also influence the profits.
We expect seasonal variations between the quarters.
